Revelation 2
1 [He also said to me], “Write [this message] to the leader [MET] of the congregation in Ephesus [city: ‘I] am saying these things [to you: I am] the one who firmly holds the seven stars in my right hand. [I am] the one who walks among the seven golden lampstands.
| اِپھِشَسْتھَسَمِتے رْدُوتَں پْرَتِ تْوَمْ اِدَں لِکھَ؛ یو دَکْشِنَکَرینَ سَپْتَ تارا دھارَیَتِ سَپْتاناں سُوَرْنَدِیپَورِکْشاناں مَدھْیے گَمَناگَمَنے کَروتِ چَ تینیدَمْ اُچْیَتے۔ |
2 I know what you do: You labor [for me] intensely, and you continue [to serve me] steadfastly. [I know] that you cannot tolerate people [who teach what is] evil [MTY], and that you investigated people who falsely claimed that they are apostles, and you found that they were lying.
| تَوَ کْرِیاح شْرَمَح سَہِشْنُتا چَ مَمَ گوچَراح، تْوَں دُشْٹانْ سوڈھُں نَ شَکْنوشِ یے چَ پْریرِتا نَ سَنْتَح سْوانْ پْریرِتانْ وَدَنْتِ تْوَں تانْ پَرِیکْشْیَ مرِشابھاشِنو وِجْناتَوانْ، |
3 [I know] also that you continue [to serve me] steadfastly. [Even when people] ([caused you to suffer/persecuted you]), you continued to serve [me] because [you believe] in me, and you have not become too tired [to keep on serving me].
| اَپَرَں تْوَں تِتِکْشاں وِدَدھاسِ مَمَ نامارْتھَں بَہُ سوڈھَوانَسِ تَتھاپِ نَ پَرْیَّکْلامْیَسْتَدَپِ جانامِ۔ |
4 Nevertheless, I have [this complaint] against you: You no longer love [each other and me] as you did when you first [MTY] [trusted in me].
| کِنْچَ تَوَ وِرُدّھَں مَیَیتَتْ وَکْتَوْیَں یَتْ تَوَ پْرَتھَمَں پْریمَ تْوَیا وْیَہِییَتَ۔ |
5 [So, I tell you to] remember how you used to love [me and each other, and] to [realize] that you no longer love as you did. [I tell] you to turn away from your sin [of not loving me and each other], and start loving [each other and me again] as you did at first. If you do not turn away from your sinful behavior, I will come [to judge] you and cause your group to cease to be a Christian congregation [MET].
| اَتَح کُتَح پَتِتو سِ تَتْ سْمرِتْوا مَنَح پَراوَرْتّیَ پُورْوِّییَکْرِیاح کُرُ نَ چیتْ تْوَیا مَنَسِ نَ پَرِوَرْتِّتے ہَں تُورْنَمْ آگَتْیَ تَوَ دِیپَورِکْشَں سْوَسْتھانادْ اَپَسارَیِشْیامِ۔ |
6 But you have the following good quality: Those Nicolaitans [teach you believers that you can worship idols and that you may act immorally]. However, you hate such teaching, just like I also hate it.
| تَتھاپِ تَویشَ گُنو وِدْیَتے یَتْ نِیکَلایَتِییَلوکاناں یاح کْرِیا اَہَمْ رِتِییے تاسْتْوَمَپِ رِتِییَمے۔ |
7 Everyone who wants to understand my message [MTY] must listen carefully to the message that [God’s] Spirit speaks to the congregations. To everyone who overcomes [Satan], I will give the right to eat [fruit] [MTY] from the tree [that gives] eternal life, the tree that is in God’s garden.’”
| یَسْیَ شْروتْرَں وِدْیَتے سَ سَمِتِیح پْرَتْیُچْیَمانامْ آتْمَنَح کَتھاں شرِنوتُ۔ یو جَنو جَیَتِ تَسْما اَہَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیارامَسْتھَجِیوَنَتَروح پھَلَں بھوکْتُں داسْیامِ۔ |
8 “Write [this message] to the leader [MET] of the congregation in Smyrna [city: ‘I am] saying these things [to you. I am] the one who caused [everything to have a beginning] and [who will cause all things to] end. I am the one who died and became alive [again].
| اَپَرَں سْمُرْناسْتھَسَمِتے رْدُوتَں پْرَتِیدَں لِکھَ؛ یَ آدِرَنْتَشْچَ یو مرِتَوانْ پُنَرْجِیوِتَواںشْچَ تینیدَمْ اُچْیَتے، |
9 I know that you suffer [because of what unbelievers do to you], and that you lack [material possessions]. But [I also know that] you are [spiritually] [MET] rich. [I know] that people (slander/say evil things about) you. They say that they are Jews, but I do not [consider that they are Jews. I consider that] they [belong to] the group that Satan [controls]!
| تَوَ کْرِیاح کْلیشو دَینْیَنْچَ مَمَ گوچَراح کِنْتُ تْوَں دھَنَوانَسِ یے چَ یِہُودِییا نَ سَنْتَح شَیَتانَسْیَ سَماجاح سَنْتِ تَتھاپِ سْوانْ یِہُودِییانْ وَدَنْتِ تیشاں نِنْدامَپْیَہَں جانامِ۔ |
10 Do not be afraid of any of the things that you are about to suffer. The truth is that the devil is about to [put] some of you in prison, to tempt you [to deny that you believe in me]. For a short period of time you will suffer [because of what people will do to you] [MTY]. Continue to trust in me, [even if] they kill you [because you trust in me]. As a result, I will [reward you with] eternal life, [just like] [MET] [people reward a victorious athlete by putting] a wreath [on his head].
| تْوَیا یو یَح کْلیشَح سوڈھَوْیَسْتَسْماتْ ما بھَیشِیح پَشْیَ شَیَتانو یُشْماکَں پَرِیکْشارْتھَں کاںشْچِتْ کارایاں نِکْشیپْسْیَتِ دَشَ دِنانِ یاوَتْ کْلیشو یُشْماسُ وَرْتِّشْیَتے چَ۔ تْوَں مرِتْیُپَرْیَّنْتَں وِشْواسْیو بھَوَ تیناہَں جِیوَنَکِرِیٹَں تُبھْیَں داسْیامِ۔ |
11 Everyone who wants to understand [MTY] must listen carefully to the message that [God’s] Spirit speaks to the congregations. [After] those who conquer [Satan die], they will live with God. They will never suffer again, even though many others will suffer as though they died a second time.’”
| یَسْیَ شْروتْرَں وِدْیَتے سَ سَمِتِیح پْرَتْیُچْیَمانامْ آتْمَنَح کَتھاں شرِنوتُ۔ یو جَیَتِ سَ دْوِتِییَمرِتْیُنا نَ ہِںسِشْیَتے۔ |
12 “Write [this message] to the leader [MET] of the congregation in Pergamum [city: ‘I am] saying these things [to you. I am] the one who has the sharp two-edged sword.
| اَپَرَں پَرْگامَسْتھَسَمِتے رْدُوتَں پْرَتِیدَں لِکھَ، یَسْتِیکْشْنَں دْوِدھارَں کھَنْگَں دھارَیَتِ سَ ایوَ بھاشَتے۔ |
13 I know where you live: It is where Satan controls [MTY] [people]. [I know] that you firmly believe in me [MTY]. You did not deny that you believe/trust in me, not even in the time when Antipas, (my faithful witness/who faithfully told people about me), [was alive]. He was killed {People killed him} in your city, a city where [people] habitually obey Satan.
| تَوَ کْرِیا مَمَ گوچَراح، یَتْرَ شَیَتانَسْیَ سِںہاسَنَں تَتْرَیوَ تْوَں وَسَسِ تَدَپِ جانامِ۔ تْوَں مَمَ نامَ دھارَیَسِ مَدْبھَکْتیرَسْوِیکارَسْتْوَیا نَ کرِتو مَمَ وِشْواسْیَساکْشِنَ آنْتِپاح سَمَیے پِ نَ کرِتَح۔ سَ تُ یُشْمَنْمَدھْیے گھانِ یَتَح شَیَتانَسْتَتْرَیوَ نِوَسَتِ۔ |
14 Nevertheless, I have this [complaint] against you: You permit some of your [members] to teach things like Balaam [taught long ago. He] taught Balak to persuade the Israeli people to sin. [Specifically], he taught them to eat food that had been offered to idols, and to practice sexual immorality.
| تَتھاپِ تَوَ وِرُدّھَں مَمَ کِنْچِدْ وَکْتَوْیَں یَتو دیوَپْرَسادادَنایَ پَرَدارَگَمَنایَ چیسْراییلَح سَنْتاناناں سَمُّکھَ اُنْماتھَں سْتھاپَیِتُں بالاکْ ییناشِکْشْیَتَ تَسْیَ بِلِیَمَح شِکْشاوَلَمْبِنَسْتَوَ کیچِتْ جَناسْتَتْرَ سَنْتِ۔ |
15 In that way, you are also permitting some of [your members] to practice what the Nicolaitans teach, [which is like what Balaam taught].
| تَتھا نِیکَلایَتِییاناں شِکْشاوَلَمْبِنَسْتَوَ کیچِتْ جَنا اَپِ سَنْتِ تَدیواہَمْ رِتِییے۔ |
16 So you must stop doing [this]. If [you do] not stop doing [it], I will come to you suddenly. Using the words that I will say I will fight against those [who believe this false teaching] [MTY], and I will ([condemn them/say that they must be punished]).
| اَتو ہیتوسْتْوَں مَنَح پَرِوَرْتَّیَ نَ چیدَہَں تْوَرَیا تَوَ سَمِیپَمُپَسْتھایَ مَدْوَکْتَسْتھَکھَنْگینَ تَیح سَہَ یوتْسْیامِ۔ |
17 Everyone who wants to understand [MTY] must listen carefully to the message that [God’s] Spirit speaks to the congregations. To everyone who conquers [Satan], I will give [blessings that will be like] the [food called] manna [that is in a jar] that is {that someone has} hidden. I will also give them a white stone on which [I will] engrave a new name, a name that no one but the ones who receive it will know.’”
| یَسْیَ شْروتْرَں وِدْیَتے سَ سَمِتِیح پْرَتْیُچْیَمانامْ آتْمَنَح کَتھاں شرِنوتُ۔ یو جَنو جَیَتِ تَسْما اَہَں گُپْتَمانّاں بھوکْتُں داسْیامِ شُبھْرَپْرَسْتَرَمَپِ تَسْمَے داسْیامِ تَتْرَ پْرَسْتَرے نُوتَنَں نامَ لِکھِتَں تَچَّ گْرَہِیتارَں وِنا نانْیینَ کیناپْیَوَگَمْیَتے۔ |
18 “Write [this message] to the leader [MET] of the congregation in Thyatira [city: ‘I], (the Son of God/the one who is also God), am saying these things [to you: I am] the one whose eyes [shine] [SIM] like a flame of fire, and whose feet [shine] [MET] like fine brass.
| اَپَرَں تھُیاتِیراسْتھَسَمِتے رْدُوتَں پْرَتِیدَں لِکھَ۔ یَسْیَ لوچَنے وَہْنِشِکھاسَدرِشے چَرَنَو چَ سُپِتَّلَسَنْکاشَو سَ اِیشْوَرَپُتْرو بھاشَتے، |
19 I know that you love [me and each other], and that you trust [in me]. I know that you serve [others] and that you steadfastly endure [a lot of difficulties/trials. I know] that you are doing these things more now than [you have done them] in the past.
| تَوَ کْرِیاح پْریمَ وِشْواسَح پَرِچَرْیّا سَہِشْنُتا چَ مَمَ گوچَراح، تَوَ پْرَتھَمَکْرِیابھْیَح شیشَکْرِیاح شْریشْٹھاسْتَدَپِ جانامِ۔ |
20 Nevertheless, I have this [complaint] about you: You tolerate that woman [among your members who is like] [MET] [that wicked queen] Jezebel [who lived long ago]. She says that she (is a prophetess/proclaims messages that come directly from God), but through what she teaches she is deceiving my servants. She is urging them to commit sexual immorality and to eat food that they have offered to idols.
| تَتھاپِ تَوَ وِرُدّھَں مَیا کِنْچِدْ وَکْتَوْیَں یَتو یا اِیشیبَلْنامِکا یوشِتْ سْواں بھَوِشْیَدْوادِنِیں مَنْیَتے ویشْیاگَمَنایَ دیوَپْرَساداشَنایَ چَ مَمَ داسانْ شِکْشَیَتِ بھْرامَیَتِ چَ سا تْوَیا نَ نِوارْیَّتے۔ |
21 Although I gave her time to stop [her sexual immorality and pagan practices], she did not want to stop [doing them].
| اَہَں مَنَحپَرِوَرْتَّنایَ تَسْیَے سَمَیَں دَتَّوانْ کِنْتُ سا سْوِییَویشْیاکْرِیاتو مَنَحپَرِوَرْتَّیِتُں نابھِلَشَتِ۔ |
22 [As a result], I will cause her to become very ill [MTY]. I will also cause those [who act immorally as she does] [MET] to suffer greatly, if they do not stop [doing] what she does.
| پَشْیاہَں تاں شَیّایاں نِکْشیپْسْیامِ، یے تَیا سارْدّھَں وْیَبھِچارَں کُرْوَّنْتِ تے یَدِ سْوَکْرِیابھْیو مَناںسِ نَ پَراوَرْتَّیَنْتِ تَرْہِ تانَپِ مَہاکْلیشے نِکْشیپْسْیامِ |
23 Some [have become like] her children by doing [what she teaches] [MET]; I will certainly get rid of them. As a result, all the congregations will recognize that I am the one who finds out what everyone thinks and desires [MTY]. I will reward each of you according to what you have done.
| تَسْیاح سَنْتاناںشْچَ مرِتْیُنا ہَنِشْیامِ۔ تیناہَمْ اَنْتَحکَرَناناں مَنَسانْچانُسَنْدھانَکارِی یُشْماکَمیکَیکَسْمَے چَ سْوَکْرِیاناں پھَلَں مَیا داتَوْیَمِتِ سَرْوّاح سَمِتَیو جْناسْیَنْتِ۔ |
24 But I have something good to say about the rest [of you believers] in Thyatira. [It is good] that you do not accept that [false] teaching. [It is good that you reject] what those [teachers] call their ‘secret [practices’, practices that] Satan [inspired] (OR, what those teachers [facetiously] call the secret, profound [practices that] Satan [inspires]). I will not burden you with any commands [other than that which you already have been told].

25 Just keep [believing firmly in me, and obey me] until I return.
| کِنْتُ یَدْ یُشْماکَں وِدْیَتے تَتْ مَماگَمَنَں یاوَدْ دھارَیَتَ۔ |
26 As for those who conquer [Satan] and who (OR, [because] they) keep on doing what I command until they die, I will give them authority, just like I myself received it from my Father. [They will exercise that authority] over the nations [that rebel against God].
| یو جَنو جَیَتِ شیشَپَرْیَّنْتَں مَمَ کْرِیاح پالَیَتِ چَ تَسْما اَہَمْ اَنْیَجاتِییانامْ آدھِپَتْیَں داسْیامِ؛ |
27 They will rule them [severely as if they were striking them] [HYP] with an iron rod. They [will destroy those who do evil things] just like [people] shatter clay pots [MET].
| پِترِتو مَیا یَدْوَتْ کَرْترِتْوَں لَبْدھَں تَدْوَتْ سو پِ لَوہَدَنْڈینَ تانْ چارَیِشْیَتِ تینَ مرِدْبھاجَنانِیوَ تے چُورْنا بھَوِشْیَنْتِ۔ |
28 I will also enable [everyone who conquers Satan to shine gloriously like] the morning star [does] [MTY, MET].
| اَپَرَمْ اَہَں تَسْمَے پْرَبھاتِییَتارامْ اَپِ داسْیامِ۔ |
29 Everyone who wants to understand [MTY] must listen carefully to the message that [God’s] Spirit speaks to the congregations.’”
