< Revelation 3 >

1 "To the minister of the Church at Sardis write as follows: "'This is what He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars says. I know your doings--you are supposed to be alive, but in reality you are dead.
“Udu kiti nnan kadura Kutelle kutyi nliran in Sardisu: 'Tigbulang nlenge na amere min ti Ruhu kuzor nin niyini kuzor nyiru ile imon na usu udin nfo figiri uu fe dinin nlai, bara nani fe unan kulari.
2 Rouse yourself and keep awake, and strengthen those things which remain but have well-nigh perished; for I have found no doings of yours free from imperfection in the sight of My God.
Fita ukpin agang kiti nile imon na ilawa, idaduru ukuu, bara na nyene katwa fe kulun nanya nyenju kutelle nighe ba.
3 Be mindful, therefore, of the lessons you have received and heard. Continually lay them to heart, and repent. If, however, you fail to rouse yourself and keep awake, I shall come upon you suddenly like a thief, and you will certainly not know the hour at which I shall come to judge you.
Bara nan lizino, ile imon na usere uminin lanza. Dofino inin, udiu kutyin. Meng ba dak nafo ukiri na uba yinnu kubi ko na nba dak kitife ba.
4 Yet you have in Sardis a few who have not soiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white; for they are worthy.
Ama tisa namong duk cinglin nan nya Sardisu alenge na ita imon mine indinong ba. Inung ba cinu nan mi, nin kuyok nimon iboo, bara idi dert.
5 "'In this way he who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments; and I will certainly not blot out his name from the Book of Life, but will acknowledge him in the presence of My Father and His angels.
Ulenge na ase unasara iba shonghe kulutuk kuboo, tutun na mba wesu lisa mye nanya kaffa nlai ba, mba bellu lisa mye nbun ncif nighe nin nbun nanan kadura mye.
6 Let all who have ears give heed to what the Spirit is saying to the Churches.'
Andi udinin natuf, lanza ile imon na uruhu din bellu nilarin nliran.”
7 "To the minister of the Church at Philadelphia write as follows: "'This is what the holy One and the true says--He who has the key of David--He who opens and no one shall shut, and shuts and no one shall open.
Udu kiti nnan kadura in Filidelfiya, Tigbulang nlenge na adi lau nin kidegen, ame min imon npunu kitin Dauda, asa apuno, na umon wasa atursu ba, asa a tursu na umonn wasa apuno ba.
8 I know your doings. I have put an opened door in front of you, which no one can shut; because you have but a little power, and yet you have guarded My word and have not disowned Me.
Meng yiru imon ile na usu, yene, ubunfe kibulun duku ka na upuno, na umon wasa atursu ba, nyiru likara fe di baat, nin nani udin dortu tigbulang nighe, tutun na uta amusu lisa nighe ba.
9 I will cause some belonging to Satan's synagogue who say that they themselves are Jews, and are not, but are liars--I will make them come and fall at your feet and know for certain that I have loved you.
Su ucaa! Alenge na idi anan kutyi nlira shetan, alenge na idin su inug a Yahudawari, ana nanere ba-idin su kinuwari nani, nba ti nani ida tumun nbun nabunu fe, iba da yinnu au meng dinin su fe.
10 Because in spite of suffering you have guarded My word, I in turn will guard you from that hour of trial which is soon coming upon the whole world, to put to the test the inhabitants of the earth.
Tunda na una ceo uduka nighe, utere kibinai nin hankuri, mba minfi kubi kongo na iba dumunfi, na ku ba dak vat inye, iba dumunu alenge na isosin nan nyya inye.
11 I am coming quickly: cling to that which you already possess, so that your wreath of victory be not taken away from you.
Meng din cinu deddei. Minno ile imon na udumun gangang bara na umong wa bullu litapa fe ba.
12 "'He who overcomes--I will make him a pillar in the sanctuary of My God, and he shall never go out from it again. And I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which is to come down out of Heaven from My God, and My own new name.
Meng ba ti ulenge na ase unasara aso litino nanya kilari nliran Kutelle, na aba nuzu nanye ba, nba nyertin ghe lisa Kutelle nighe, lisa kipin Kutelle (Urushalima upese ule na utolo unuzu kitene kani kiti Kutelle), nin lisa lipese nighe.
13 Let all who have ears give heed to what the Spirit is saying to the Churches.'
Ame ulenge na adumun natuf, na alanza ile unon na Uruhu din belle niliran nlirag.'
14 "And to the minister of the Church at Laodicea write as follows: "'This is what the Amen says--the true and faithful witness, the Beginning and Lord of God's Creation.
“Nyerte Udu kiti nanan kadura kilari nliran nanya in Lawudikiya: 'Tigbulang uso nani, iyizi nba in kidegen udya nanya makeke Kutelle.
15 I know your doings--you are neither cold nor hot; I would that you were cold or hot!
Meng yiru ile imon na udin su, nafe di cancam ba, ana udin npiu ba, ndi nyenju nafo uwadi cancam sa npiu!
16 Accordingly, because you are lukewarm and neither hot nor cold, before long I will vomit you out of My mouth.
Nani, bara na udi bidibidi-na udi cancam ba ana udin piu ba-Meng ba tuffunfi nanya nnuu nighe.
17 You say, I am rich, and have wealth stored up, and I stand in need of nothing; and you do not know that if there is a wretched creature it is you -- pitiable, poor, blind, naked.
Bara fe nworo, “Meng dimun nimon nacara, na ndira imomon ba.” Anafe yiru fere di ba fere di hem, unan kunekune, ukimon, uduu, nin lenge na adi fisere.
18 Therefore I counsel you to buy of Me gold refined in the fire that you may become rich, and white robes to put on, so as to hide your shameful nakedness, and eye-salve to anoint your eyes with, so that you may be able to see.
Lanza ushawara nighe: Sere azurfa kiti nighe, alle na ina dumun anin kiti nlah, bara unan so unan nimon nacara, nin njinjin, nin kulutuk kulau, ishon bara iwa yenefi fisere ulanza ncin, a ukan uti niyizife unan yene kiti.
19 All whom I hold dear, I reprove and chastise; therefore be in earnest and repent.
Vat nlenge na ndinin su mye, asa ntaghe libau ndursuzoghe inda na aba su lisosin, bara nani, ta dedei udiu kutyin.
20 I am now standing at the door and am knocking. If any one listens to My voice and opens the door, I will go in to be with him and will feast with him, and he shall feast with Me.
Yene, Meng yisin kibulun ndi fowe, asa umon nlanza liwui nighe apuno kibulughe, Meng ba dak nan nya kilari mye, nba lii umonli nighe nighe, amye nin nmi.
21 "'To him who overcomes I will give the privilege of sitting down with Me on My throne, as I also have overcome and have sat down with My Father on His throne.
Ulenge na ase unasara, Meng ba yinin ghe aso nin mye, kuteet tigo nighe, nafo na Meng nasu unasara nmini sosin nin ncif nighe kuteet tigoo mye.
22 Let all who have ears give heed to what the Spirit is saying to the Churches.'"
Andi udinin natuf, lanza ile imon na uruhu din bellu nilari nlira.”
