< Revelation 2 >

1 To the angel (of the *NK(o)*) (in *no*) (Ephesus *N(k)O*) church do write: These things says the [One] holding the seven stars in the right hand of Him, who is walking in [the] midst of the seven lampstands golden;
Τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Ἐφέσῳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον Τάδε λέγει ὁ κρατῶν τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἀστέρας ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ, ὁ περιπατῶν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἑπτὰ λυχνιῶν τῶν χρυσῶν
2 I know the works of you and the labor (of you *k*) and the endurance of you and that not you are able to tolerate evil [ones] And (you have tested *N(k)O*) those (saying *N(k)O*) (themselves *no*) (to be *k*) apostles and not are, and you have found them false.
Οἶδα τὰ ἔργα σου καὶ τὸν κόπον καὶ τὴν ὑπομονήν σου, καὶ ὅτι οὐ δύνῃ βαστάσαι κακούς, καὶ ἐπείρασας τοὺς λέγοντας ἑαυτοὺς ἀποστόλους καὶ οὐκ εἰσίν, καὶ εὗρες αὐτοὺς ψευδεῖς·
3 and perseverance you have and endured (and *k*) for the sake of the name of Me (have laboured *K*) and not (have grown weary. *NK(o)*)
καὶ ὑπομονὴν ἔχεις, καὶ ἐβάστασας διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου, καὶ οὐ κεκοπίακες.
4 But I have against you that the love of you first you have abandoned.
ἀλλὰ ἔχω κατὰ σοῦ ὅτι τὴν ἀγάπην σου τὴν πρώτην ἀφῆκες.
5 do remember therefore from where (you have fallen, *N(k)O*) and do repent and the first works do perform; lest then except, I am coming to you ([with] speed *K(o)*) and I will remove the lampstand of you out of the place of it, only unless you shall repent.
μνημόνευε οὖν πόθεν πέπτωκες, καὶ μετανόησον καὶ τὰ πρῶτα ἔργα ποίησον· εἰ δὲ μή, ἔρχομαί σοι καὶ κινήσω τὴν λυχνίαν σου ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτῆς, ἐὰν μὴ μετανοήσῃς.
6 But this you have that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans which I myself also I myself also hate.
ἀλλὰ τοῦτο ἔχεις, ὅτι μισεῖς τὰ ἔργα τῶν Νικολαϊτῶν, ἃ κἀγὼ μισῶ.
7 The [one] having an ear he should hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To the [one] overcoming I will give to him to eat of the tree of life which is in (midst *K*) (the paradise *N(k)O*) of God (of mine. *O*)
Ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ Πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. Τῷ νικῶντι δώσω αὐτῷ φαγεῖν ἐκ τοῦ ξύλου τῆς ζωῆς, ὅ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ Παραδείσῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ.
8 And to the angel (of the *NK(o)*) (in *no*) (Smyrna *N(k)O*) church do write: These things says the First and the Last, who became dead and came to life;
Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Σμύρνῃ ἐκκλησίας γράψον Τάδε λέγει ὁ πρῶτος καὶ ὁ ἔσχατος, ὃς ἐγένετο νεκρὸς καὶ ἔζησεν
9 I know your (works and *K*) tribulation and poverty — (but *no*) rich (now *k*) you are — and the slander from those claiming Jews to be themselves and not are, but a synagogue of Satan.
Οἶδά σου τὴν θλῖψιν καὶ τὴν πτωχείαν, ἀλλὰ πλούσιος εἶ, καὶ τὴν βλασφημίαν ἐκ τῶν λεγόντων Ἰουδαίους εἶναι ἑαυτούς, καὶ οὐκ εἰσίν ἀλλὰ συναγωγὴ τοῦ Σατανᾶ.
10 (nothing *NK(o)*) do fear what you are about (to suffer; *NK(o)*) Behold (indeed *o*) is about (to cast *N(k)O*) the devil [some] of you into prison so that you may be tested, and (you will have *NK(o)*) tribulation for days ten. do be faithful unto death, and I will give to you the crown of life.
μὴ φοβοῦ ἃ μέλλεις πάσχειν. ἰδοὺ μέλλει βάλλειν ὁ διάβολος ἐξ ὑμῶν εἰς φυλακὴν ἵνα πειρασθῆτε, καὶ ἕξετε θλῖψιν ἡμερῶν δέκα. γίνου πιστὸς ἄχρι θανάτου, καὶ δώσω σοι τὸν στέφανον τῆς ζωῆς.
11 The [one] having an ear he should hear what the Spirit says to the churches; The [one] overcoming certainly not may be injured by the death second.
Ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ Πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. Ὁ νικῶν οὐ μὴ ἀδικηθῇ ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου τοῦ δευτέρου.
12 And to the angel of the in Pergamum church do write: These things says the [One] having the sword two-edged sharp;
Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Περγάμῳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον Τάδε λέγει ὁ ἔχων τὴν ῥομφαίαν τὴν δίστομον τὴν ὀξεῖαν
13 I know (the works of you and *K*) where you dwell, where the throne of Satan [is], and you hold fast to the name of Me and not you have denied the faith of Mine even in the days (in which *k*) of Antipas the witness of Mine the faithful [one] (of Mine *no*) who was killed among you where Satan dwells.
Οἶδα ποῦ κατοικεῖς· ὅπου ὁ θρόνος τοῦ Σατανᾶ· καὶ κρατεῖς τὸ ὄνομά μου, καὶ οὐκ ἠρνήσω τὴν πίστιν μου καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἀντιπᾶς ὁ μάρτυς μου ὁ πιστός μου, ὃς ἀπεκτάνθη παρ’ ὑμῖν, ὅπου ὁ Σατανᾶς κατοικεῖ.
14 But I have against you a few things because you have [some] there holding the teaching of Balaam, who (was teaching *NK(o)*) (in *k*) (*NK(o)*) Balak to cast a snare before the sons of Israel (and *o*) to eat idol-sacrifices and to commit sexual immorality.
ἀλλ’ ἔχω κατὰ σοῦ ὀλίγα, ὅτι ἔχεις ἐκεῖ κρατοῦντας τὴν διδαχὴν Βαλαάμ, ὃς ἐδίδασκεν τῷ Βαλὰκ βαλεῖν σκάνδαλον ἐνώπιον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ, φαγεῖν εἰδωλόθυτα καὶ πορνεῦσαι.
15 So have also you yourself [some] holding the teaching of the Nicolaitans (likewise. *N(K)O*)
οὕτως ἔχεις καὶ σὺ κρατοῦντας τὴν διδαχὴν τῶν Νικολαϊτῶν ὁμοίως.
16 do repent (therefore! *NO*) lest then except I am coming to you quickly and I will make war against them with the sword of the mouth of Mine.
μετανόησον οὖν· εἰ δὲ μή, ἔρχομαί σοι ταχύ καὶ πολεμήσω μετ’ αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ ῥομφαίᾳ τοῦ στόματός μου.
17 The [one] having an ear he should hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To the [one] overcoming I will give to him (to eat from *K*) the manna which hidden and I will give to him stone white, and on the stone a name new written which no [one] (knows *N(k)O*) only except the [one] receiving [it].
Ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ Πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. Τῷ νικῶντι δώσω αὐτῷ τοῦ μάννα τοῦ κεκρυμμένου, καὶ δώσω αὐτῷ ψῆφον λευκήν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν ψῆφον ὄνομα καινὸν γεγραμμένον, ὃ οὐδεὶς οἶδεν εἰ μὴ ὁ λαμβάνων.
18 And to the angel (of the *NK(o)*) in Thyatira church do write: These things says the Son of God, the [One] having the eyes of Him like a flame of fire and the feet of Him like as burnished bronze;
Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Θυατείροις ἐκκλησίας γράψον Τάδε λέγει ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, ὁ ἔχων τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ ὡς φλόγα πυρός, καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ὅμοιοι χαλκολιβάνῳ
19 I know your works and love and faith and service and the perseverance of you and the works of you (and *k*) the latter [are] greater than the first.
Οἶδά σου τὰ ἔργα καὶ τὴν ἀγάπην καὶ τὴν πίστιν καὶ τὴν διακονίαν καὶ τὴν ὑπομονήν σου, καὶ τὰ ἔργα σου τὰ ἔσχατα πλείονα τῶν πρώτων.
20 But I have against you (few things *K*) that (you permit *N(k)O*) the woman (of you *O*) Jezebel, (the [one] *N(k)O*) (calling *N(k)(o)*) herself a prophetess (and *no*) (she teaches *N(k)O*) and (she misleads *N(k)O*) My servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat idol-sacrifices.
ἀλλὰ ἔχω κατὰ σοῦ ὅτι ἀφεῖς τὴν γυναῖκα Ἰεζάβελ, ἡ λέγουσα ἑαυτὴν προφῆτιν, καὶ διδάσκει καὶ πλανᾷ τοὺς ἐμοὺς δούλους πορνεῦσαι καὶ φαγεῖν εἰδωλόθυτα·
21 And I have given to her time that she may repent and not (she is willing *NO*) (to repent *N(k)O*) of the sexual immorality of her.
καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτῇ χρόνον ἵνα μετανοήσῃ, καὶ οὐ θέλει μετανοῆσαι ἐκ τῆς πορνείας αὐτῆς.
22 Behold (I myself *k*) I cast her into a sickbed and those committing adultery with her into tribulation great, only unless (they shall repent *NK(o)*) of the deeds (of her. *N(K)O*)
ἰδοὺ βάλλω αὐτὴν εἰς κλίνην, καὶ τοὺς μοιχεύοντας μετ’ αὐτῆς εἰς θλῖψιν μεγάλην, ἐὰν μὴ μετανοήσουσιν ἐκ τῶν ἔργων αὐτῆς·
23 And the children of her I will kill with death, and will know all the churches that I myself am the [One] searching affections and hearts, and I will give of you to each according to the works of you.
καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς ἀποκτενῶ ἐν θανάτῳ· καὶ γνώσονται πᾶσαι αἱ ἐκκλησίαι ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἐραυνῶν νεφροὺς καὶ καρδίας, καὶ δώσω ὑμῖν ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα ὑμῶν.
24 To you however I say (to the *N(K)O*) rest of those in Thyatira, as many as not have teaching this, (and *k*) who not have known the (deeps *N(k)O*) of Satan as they say: Not (I do cast *N(k)O*) upon you any other burden,
ὑμῖν δὲ λέγω τοῖς λοιποῖς τοῖς ἐν Θυατείροις, ὅσοι οὐκ ἔχουσιν τὴν διδαχὴν ταύτην, οἵτινες οὐκ ἔγνωσαν τὰ βαθέα τοῦ Σατανᾶ, ὡς λέγουσιν, οὐ βάλλω ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς ἄλλο βάρος·
25 But to what you have do hold fast until which [time] maybe I may come.
πλὴν ὃ ἔχετε κρατήσατε ἄχρι οὗ ἂν ἥξω.
26 And the [one] overcoming and who is keeping until [the] end the works of Mine, I will give to him authority over the nations;
Καὶ ὁ νικῶν καὶ ὁ τηρῶν ἄχρι τέλους τὰ ἔργα μου, δώσω αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν ἐπὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν,
27 and he will shepherd them with a rod of iron, as the vessels [of] the potter (are broken in pieces *NK(o)*) just as I myself also I myself also have received from the Father of Mine.
καὶ ποιμανεῖ αὐτοὺς ἐν ῥάβδῳ σιδηρᾷ, ὡς τὰ σκεύη τὰ κεραμικὰ συντρίβεται,
28 And I will give to him the star morning.
ὡς κἀγὼ εἴληφα παρὰ τοῦ Πατρός μου, καὶ δώσω αὐτῷ τὸν ἀστέρα τὸν πρωϊνόν.
29 The [one] having an ear he should hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ Πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις.
