< Revelation 3 >
1 “Write [this message] to the leader [MET] of the congregation in Sardis [city]: ‘I am saying these things [to you. I am] the one who can give [to people] all the power of God’s Spirit (OR, in whom is the Spirit of God who has all kinds of power; OR, [who has God’s Spirit, who is symbolized as] seven spirits), and [I am the one] who has the seven stars. I know everything that you have done. You [(pl)] appear to be alive [spiritually], but [you are so weak spiritually it is as though] you are dead [MET].
ସାର୍ଦି ମଣ୍ଡଡ଼ିନ୍ ଆ ପାଙ୍ଲଙ୍ବର୍ମରନ୍ ଆମଙ୍ ଇଡ୍ଲେ ଆପ୍ପାୟ୍ବା; “ଆନା ଇସ୍ୱରନ୍ ଆ ପୁରାଡ଼ା ସାତଟା ଆରି ସାତଟା ତୁତୁଜନ୍ ଆଞମ୍ଞମନ୍, ଆନିନ୍ କେନ୍ ଆ ବର୍ନେ ବର୍ତନେ । ଞେନ୍ ଲନୁମ୍ନମ୍ ଜନା, ମନ୍ରାଞ୍ଜି ଆଗନିୟ୍ଗିୟ୍ଲୋଙ୍ ଆମନ୍ ଆମେଙ୍, ବନ୍ଡ ଆଜାଡ଼ିଡମ୍ ଆମନ୍ ଆରବୁ ।
2 [Become aware of your spiritual need as though you were] awaking [from sleep] [MET], and strengthen [yourself spiritually, because you are so useless that you are like someone who is] about to die [MET]. [You must do this] because I know that my God considers that nothing that you do is satisfactory.

3 So then, keep remembering [God’s message, what] you accepted when you heard it. Obey it continually, and turn away from your sinful behavior. If [you do not become aware of your spiritual need and turn away from your] [MET] [sinful behavior], I will come to you [when you are not expecting me], as a thief [comes] [SIM]. You will never know at what time I will come to [judge] you.

4 Nevertheless, [there] in Sardis you have a few members who [have not been doing what is wrong. It is as though they] have not soiled their garments [MET]. As a result, because they are worthy [to live with me], they will live with me [and will be pure in every way] [MET], [like people who are dressed] in [pure] white [clothing].

Instead, as my Father and his angels are listening, I will acknowledge that they [MTY] [belong to me].

At that time [God will cause rebellious people] on the earth to suffer, in order that I can determine [whether they will turn away from their sins or not].
