Revelation 2
1 “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: 'The words of the one who holds the seven stars in his right hand and who walks among the seven golden lampstands,
“Ku Malaika owa Likanisa Lya Efeso yandika: 'Jinu ni misango ja ulya unu agwatiliye jinjota jiliya musanju mu kubhoko kwaye okwebhulyo. Omwene unu kalibhata agati ya Jinomyo na jijaabhu eja jitala musanju kaika kutya,”
2 “I know what you have done and your hard labor and your patient endurance. I know that you cannot tolerate the evil people. I know that you have tested those who say they are apostles, but are not, and that you have found them to be false.
“'Nimenyele chinu oukola no kukomela kwao ku milimu na kubhwigumilisha bhwalya mu chimali, na ati utakutula okwaikana nabho bhanu bhali bhabhibhi, na wabhalegejishe bhona bhanu abhebhilikila ati ni ntumwa Kasi tikutiyo, na abhabheelesha kubha bhalimi.
3 I know you have patient endurance, and you have suffered much because of my name, and that you have not grown weary.
Nimenyele uli no myoyo kwo okutendesha no kwigumilisha, na walabhile ku mafu kunsonga ya lisina lyani, na uchali kuigwa.
4 But I have against you the fact that you have left behind your first love.
Mbe nawe gunu Nigwo nilinagwo mu bhutasikene nawe ati, wasigile elyenda lyao elyokwamba.
5 Remember therefore from where you have fallen. Repent and do the things you did at first. Unless you repent, I will come to you and I will remove your lampstand from its place.
Kulwejo nuwichuke anu waguye, ute no kukola ebhikolwa bhinu wakolele okusoka ku bhwambilo. Ukalema okuta, enikujako no okuisoshao inomyo yao anu ili.
6 But you have this: You hate what the Nicolaitans have done, which I also hate.
Mbe nawe awe una linu ati, utamangenwe galiya ganu abhanikolai bhakolele, nolwo Anye one nitamangenwe nago.
7 Let the one who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.”'”
Alabha uli no kutwi, tegelesha ganu Mwoyo kabhwila amakanisa. Na ku mwene unu kwiya ndimuyana echibhali cho jilya kwiti lyo bhuanga bhunu bhuli mu Paladiso ya Nyamuanga.'
8 “To the angel of the church in Smyrna write: 'The words of the one who is the first and the last, the one who was dead and who became alive again:
Ku Malaika unu ali kwi Kanisa lya Smirna andika: 'jinu ni misango ja ulya unu ali bhwambilo no bhutelo unu aliga afuye na nabha muanga lindi:
9 “I know your sufferings and your poverty, but you are rich. I know the slander of those who say they are Jews, but they are not. They are a synagogue of Satan.
“'Enijimenya jinyako jawo no bhutaka bhwawo (Mbe nawe awe uli munibhi), no lulimi lya bhalya bhanu abhetoga abhayaudi (Mbe nawe tibho- bhenene ni likofyanyisho lya Shetani).
10 Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Look! The devil is about to throw some of you into prison so that you will be tested, and you will suffer for ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.
Wasiga kubhaya jinyako jinu jilikubhona. Lola! Shetani Kenda okubhesa abhandi bhemwe mwibhoyelo koleleki nibhone okulegejibhwa, no omujonyaka kwa nsiku ekumi. Mbe mubhe bheikanyibhwa kukinga kufwa, ne enibhayana olutendo lwo bhuanga.
11 Let the one who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches. The one who conquers will not be hurt by the second death.”'”
Alabha uli no kutwi, tegelesha ganu lwa kutyo Mwoyo kagabhwila amakanisa. Omwene unu kaiga atakubhona mauta go lufu lya kabhili.'
12 “To the angel of the church in Pergamum write: 'The words of the one who has the sword with two sharp edges:
Ku malaika wa likanisa elya Pergamo yandika: jinu nijo kaika omwene unu ali na lipanga elyo bhugi, elya mogi gabhili.
13 “I know where you live, there where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold on tightly to my name. I know that you did not deny your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, there where Satan lives.
“'Enimenya libhala linu wikaye - libhala linu anu chili echitebhe cho obhutungi bhwa Shetani. Nolwo kutyo awe ugwatile muno lisina lyani, utalilemele elikilisha lyao linu Lili kwanye, nolwo jinsiku jilya eja Antipasi omubhambasi wani, omwiikanyibhwa wani, unu etilwe agati-gati yemwe, ao niwo Shetani ekaye.
14 But I have a few things against you: You have there some who hold tightly to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to throw a stumbling block before the children of Israel, so they would eat food sacrificed to idols and be sexually immoral.
Mbe nawe nili ne misango mifui jitasikene nawe: uliyo na bhanu eyo bhanu bhagwatile ameigisho ga Balaamu, mwene unu amwiigisishe Balaki okutao ebhikujulo imbele ya bhana bha Israel, koleleki bhalye ebhilyo bhinu bhyasosibhwe ku bhiyana ebhye bhisusano no obhulomesi.
15 In the same way, you even have some who hold tightly to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
Kwibhyo ebhyo, nolwo awe ulio na bhandi bhebhwe bhanu abhagwata ameigisho aga Bhanikolai.
16 Repent, therefore! If you do not, I will quickly come to you, and I will wage war against them with the sword in my mouth.
Mbe nute! Alabha ukalema okukola kutyo, enija bhwangu, enijo okukola lilemo ingulu yao kwa lipanga linu elisoka mu Kanwa Kani.
17 Let the one who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches. To the one who conquers, I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give a white stone with a new name written on the stone, a name which no one knows but the one who receives it.”'”
Alabha uli no kutwi, mbe nutegeleshe Mwoyo chinu kabhabhwila amakanisa. Unu kaiga, enimuyana emanu (emikate) inu ibhisilwe, one enimuyana libhui limwela linu lyandikilweko lisina liyaya ingulu ya libhui, lisina linu atali unu kalimenya atali omwene unu kalilamila.'
18 “To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: 'These are the words of the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire and feet like polished bronze:
“Ku Malaika wa likanisa elya Thiatila yandika: “Jinu nijo emisango no Mwana wa Nyamuanga, omwene unu ali na meso gaye uti ebhesi lya mulilo, ne bhigele kuti China chinu chikubhilwe muno:
19 “I know what you have done: your love and faith and service and your patient endurance. I know that what you have done recently is more than you did at first.
“'Enimenya chinu ukolele-elyenda lyao ne likilisha no bhufulubhendi no bhwigumilisha bhwao obhwe chimali, na ati chilya chinu wakolele ayei kutya ni kukila chinu wakolele mu bhwambilo.
20 But I have this against you: You tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she deceives my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.
Mbe nawe ninalyo linu ingulu yao: oumwigumilisha omugasi Yezebeli unu kebhilikila omwene -la ati omulagi mugasi. Ku meigisho gaye, nabhayabhya abhakosi bhani okulomela no kulya ebhilyo bhinu ebisosibhwa ebhiyanwa ku bhisusano.
21 I gave her time to repent, but she is not willing to repent of her immorality.
Namuyanile omwanya ogwo kuta, mbe nawe atakwenda kuta no kusiga obhubhibhi bhwaye.
22 Look! I will throw her onto a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great suffering, unless they repent of her deeds.
Mbe lola! enimwesa ku chitanda cho bhulwaye, na bhaliya bhanu abhakola obhusiani nage munyako nyafu, alabha jitali kutyo nibhate kuchinu akolele.
23 I will strike her children dead, and all the churches will know that I am the one who searches thoughts and hearts. I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.
Enijo bhabhuma abhana bhaye bhafwe na Kanisa gone gamenye ati anye nanye unu katatilisha ameganilisho na inamba. Enimuyana bhuli umwi wemwe lwakutyo ebhikolwa bhyaye.
24 But to the rest of you in Thyatira, to everyone who does not hold this teaching, and does not know what some call the deep things of Satan—to you I say, 'I do not put any other burden on you.'
Mbe nawe ku bhandi bhemwe bhanu musagile mu Thiatila, ku bhaliya bhona bhanu mutakugwata eliigisho linu, na bhanu mutakumenya chilya chinu abhandi abhabhilikila obhumbise bhwa Shetani, enaika kwemwe, nitakubhatelako mujigo gwone gwone ingulu yemwe.'
25 In any case, you must hold on tightly until I come.
Ku musango gwone gwone, ni bhusi-bhusi mubhe bhakomee kukinga anu ndijila.
26 The one who conquers and who does what I have done until the end, to him I will give authority over the nations.
Wona wona unu kasiga no kukola chilya nakolele kukinga ku bhutelo, ku mwenene ndimuyana okutunga ingulu ya Maanga.
27 'He will rule them with an iron rod, like clay jars he will break them into pieces.'
'Alibhatunga kwa insimbo ye chuma, lwa jimbakuli eja mayalu, kabhata bhibhala bhalagi.'
28 Just as I have received from my Father, I will also give him the morning star.
Lwa kutyo nalamiye okusoka ku Lata wani, ndimuyana one ijota ya katondo.
29 Let the one who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches.”'”
Alabha uli no kutwi, nuungwe chilya chinu Mwoyo kagabhwila amakanisa.'
