Revelation 3
1 And by the messenger of the congregation in Sardis, write: These things says he who has the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know your works, that you have a name that you live, but are dead.
“Kũrĩ mũraika wa kanitha wa Saride, mwandĩkĩre atĩrĩ: Ici nĩcio ciugo cia ũrĩa ũrĩ na maroho mũgwanja ma Ngai, o na njata mũgwanja. Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnjũũĩ ciĩko ciaku; nĩmenyete atĩ nĩũrĩ ngumo ya gũkorwo ũrĩ muoyo, no ũrĩ mũkuũ.
2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, which are ready to die: for I have not found your works filled up in the sight of God.
Arahũka! Ĩkĩra hinya maũndũ marĩa matigaire na marenda gũkua, nĩgũkorwo ndionete ciĩko ciaku irĩ nginyanĩru maitho-inĩ ma Ngai wakwa.
3 Remember, therefore, how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and reform: therefore, unless you are watchful, I will come upon you as thief, and you shall not know what hour I will come upon you.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ririkana maũndũ marĩa wamũkĩrĩte na ũkamaigua; maathĩkĩre na wĩrire. No ũngĩrega kwarahũka-rĩ, nĩngooka ta mũici, na ndũkamenya ihinda rĩrĩa ngaagũkorerera.
4 But you have a few names in Sardis, who have not polluted their garments: and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy.
No rĩrĩ, nĩ ũrĩ andũ matarĩ aingĩ kũu Saride arĩa matekĩrĩte nguo ciao gĩko. Nĩmagatwaranaga na niĩ mehumbĩte nguo njerũ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmagĩrĩire.
5 As for the conqueror, he shall be clothed in white apparel; and I will not blot out his name from the book of life; but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũgatoorania-rĩ, nĩakahumbwo nguo njerũ tao. Ndirĩ hĩndĩ ngaatharia rĩĩtwa rĩake kuuma ibuku-inĩ rĩa muoyo, no nĩngoimbũra rĩĩtwa rĩake mbere ya Baba, na araika aake.
6 Whoever has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the congregations.
Ũrĩa ũrĩ gũtũ-rĩ, nĩakĩigue ũrĩa Roho areera makanitha.
7 And by the messenger of the congregation in Philadelphia, write: These things says the Holy One, the True One; who has the key, the Son of David; he who opens and no man shuts; and shuts, and no man opens:
“Kũrĩ mũraika wa kanitha wa Filadelifia, mwandĩkĩre atĩrĩ: Ici nĩcio ciugo cia ũrĩa mũtheru na wa ma, ũrĩa ũnyiitĩte cabi ya Daudi. Kũrĩa ahingũra gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩhinga, na kũrĩa ahinga gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩhingũra.
8 I know your works: behold, I have set before you an open door, and no man can shut it; because you have little strength, and have kept my word, and have not denied my name.
Nĩnjũũĩ ciĩko ciaku. Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnjĩkĩrĩte mũrango mũhingũre mbere yaku, ũrĩa ũtarĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota kũũhinga. Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ hinya ũrĩa ũrĩ naguo nĩ mũnini, no nĩũrũmĩtie kiugo gĩakwa, na ndũigana gũkaana rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
9 Behold, I will give of those--who are of the assembly of Satan; who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold--I will make them to come and worship before your feet; and they shall know that I have loved you.
Nĩngatũma andũ arĩa a thunagogi ya Shaitani, arĩa moigaga atĩ nĩ Ayahudi o na gũtuĩka tio, no nĩkũheenania maheenanagia, ndũme moke mainamĩrĩre mbere ya magũrũ maku, na moimbũre atĩ nĩngwendete.
10 Because you have kept the word of my patience, I will also keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try the inhabitants of the earth.
Na tondũ nawe nĩũtũũrĩte ũrũmĩtie rĩathani rĩakwa rĩa gũikara ũmĩrĩirie-rĩ, o na niĩ nĩngagũikaria ihinda rĩa kũgerio rĩrĩa rĩgooka mabũrũri mothe kũgeria arĩa matũũraga gũkũ thĩ.
11 I come quickly: keep that which you have, that no man take your crown.
Ngũũka o narua. Rũmia kĩrĩa ũrĩ nakĩo, nĩgeetha gũtikagĩe mũndũ ũkuoya thũmbĩ yaku.
12 As for the conqueror, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out no more: and I will inscribe upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem, which is to come down from heaven, from my God; and my new name.
Ũrĩa ũgaatoorania-rĩ, nĩngamũtua gĩtugĩ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Ngai wakwa. Ndarĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ agacooka kuuma kuo. Nĩngamwandĩka rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai wakwa o na rĩĩtwa rĩa itũũra inene rĩa Ngai wakwa, nĩrĩo Jerusalemu ĩrĩa njerũ, rĩrĩa rĩraikũrũka kuuma igũrũ kũrĩ Ngai wakwa; o na ningĩ ndĩmwandĩke rĩĩtwa rĩakwa rĩerũ.
13 Whoever has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the congregations.
Ũrĩa ũrĩ gũtũ-rĩ, nĩakĩigue ũrĩa Roho areera makanitha.
14 And by the messenger of the congregation in Laodicea, write: These things says the AMEN, the Faithful and true Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God:
“Kũrĩ mũraika wa kanitha wa Laodikia, mwandĩkĩre atĩrĩ: Ici nĩcio ciugo cia ũcio Ameni, mũira ũrĩa mwĩhokeku na wa ma, o we mwathi wa ciũmbe cia Ngai.
15 I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot: I wish you were either cold or hot.
Nĩnjũũĩ ciĩko ciaku, ngamenya atĩ wee ndũrĩ mũhoro na ndũrĩ mũhiũ. Kũngĩrĩ wega korwo waheha kana ũhiũhe!
16 Therefore, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of my mouth.
No tondũ ũrĩ mũraru, ũkaaga kũhiũha na ũkaaga kũhora-rĩ, ngirie gũgũtua thĩ uume kanua gakwa.
17 Because you say, I am wealthy, and have enriched myself, and have need of nothing; and do not know that you are wreatched and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.
Wee ugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ndĩ gĩtonga, ngagĩa na indo nyingĩ, na ndirĩ kĩndũ njagĩte.’ No wee ndũũĩ atĩ ũrĩ mũnyamarĩki, na ũrĩ wa kũiguĩrwo tha, na ũrĩ mũthĩĩni, na ũrĩ mũtumumu, o na ũrĩ njaga.
18 I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that you may be rich; and white apparel, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness may not appear; and anoint your eyes with eye-salve, that you may see.
Ngũgũtaara atĩ ũgũre thahabu ĩrĩa therie na mwaki kuuma kũrĩ niĩ, nĩgeetha ũtonge, na ningĩ ũgũre nguo cia rangi mwerũ cia kwĩhumba, nĩguo ũhumbĩre thoni cia njaga yaku, na ũgũre ndawa wĩhake maitho maku, nĩguo ũhote kuona.
19 As many as I love, I reprove and correct; therefore, be zealous, and reform.
Arĩa nyendete nĩndĩmarũithagia na ngamaherithia. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gĩa na kĩyo, na wĩrire.
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any one hear my voice, and open the door, I will enter into his house, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Atĩrĩrĩ, ndũgamĩte mũrango-inĩ ngĩũringaringa. Mũndũ o wothe angĩigua mũgambo wakwa, na ahingũre mũrango, nĩngũtoonya thĩinĩ ndĩĩanĩre irio nake, nake arĩĩanĩre na niĩ.
21 As for the conqueror, I will give him to sit down with me upon my throne; as I also have conquered, and sat down with my Father upon his throne.
Ũrĩa ũgaatoorania-rĩ, nĩngamwĩtĩkĩria aikare hamwe na niĩ gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩakwa kĩa ũnene, o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndatooranirie na ngĩikaranĩra hamwe na Baba gĩtĩ-inĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene.
22 Whoever has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the congregations.
Ũrĩa ũrĩ gũtũ-rĩ, nĩakĩigue ũrĩa Roho areera makanitha.”
