Revelation 3

1 "And to the angel of the congregation in Sardis write: "He who has the seven Ruachs of God, and the seven stars says these things: "I know your works, that you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead.

And to the angel of the assembly in Sardis write: These things saith he that has the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.

2 Wake up, and keep the things that remain, which were about to die, for I have found no works of yours perfected before my God.

Be watchful, and strengthen the things that remain, which are about to die, for I have not found thy works complete before my God.

3 Remember therefore how you have received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If therefore you do not wake up, I will come as a thief, and you won't know what hour I will come to you.

Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and keep [it] and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come [upon thee] as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I shall come upon thee.

4 Nevertheless you have a few names in Sardis that did not defile their garments. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.

But thou hast a few names in Sardis which have not defiled their garments, and they shall walk with me in white, because they are worthy.

5 He who overcomes will be arrayed in white garments, and I will in no way blot his name out of the Book of Life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

He that overcomes, he shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life, and will confess his name before my Father and before his angels.

6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Ruach says to the congregations.

He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.

7 "To the angel of the congregation in Philadelphia write: "These are the words of the Holy One, the True One, he who has the key of David, he who opens and no one can shut, and who shuts and no one opens:

And to the angel of the assembly in Philadelphia write: These things saith the holy, the true; he that has the key of David, he who opens and no one shall shut, and shuts and no one shall open:

8 "I know your works. Look, I have set before you an open door, which no one can shut. For you have a little power, and have kept my word, and did not deny my name.

I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an opened door, which no one can shut, because thou hast a little power, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

9 Look, I give of the synagogue of Satan, of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but lie; look, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.

Behold, I make them of the synagogue of Satan who say that they are Jews, and are not, but lie; behold, I will cause that they shall come and shall do homage before thy feet, and shall know that I have loved thee.

10 Because you kept my command to endure, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, which is to come on the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee out of the hour of trial, which is about to come upon the whole habitable world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

11 I am coming quickly. Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.

I come quickly: hold fast what thou hast, that no one take thy crown.

12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will go out from there no more. I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and my own new name.

He that overcomes, him will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more at all out; and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven, from my God, and my new name.

13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Ruach says to the congregations.

He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.

14 "To the angel of the congregation in Laodicea write: "The Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Head of God's creation, says these things:

And to the angel of the assembly in Laodicea write: These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God:

15 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot.

I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth.

Thus because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am about to spue thee out of my mouth.

17 Because you say, 'I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing;' and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked;

Because thou sayest, I am rich, and am grown rich, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that thou art the wretched and the miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked;

18 I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may become rich; and white garments, that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to put on your eyes, that you may see.

I counsel thee to buy of me gold purified by fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white garments, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not be made manifest; and eye-salve to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see.

19 As many as I love, I rebuke and discipline. Be zealous therefore, and repent.

I rebuke and discipline as many as I love; be zealous therefore and repent.

20 Look, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me.

Behold, I stand at the door and am knocking; if any one hear my voice and open the door, I will come in unto him and sup with him, and he with me.

21 He who overcomes, I will give to him to sit down with me on my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father on his throne.

He that overcomes, to him will I give to sit with me in my throne; as I also have overcome, and have sat down with my Father in his throne.

22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Ruach says to the congregations."

He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
