Revelation 2
1 To the angel of the church at Ephesus write, These things saith He that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
“Twerɛ krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtua Efeso asafo no ano, na ka kyerɛ no sɛ: Yei ne nsɛm a ɛfiri obi a ɔkura nsoromma nson wɔ ne nsa nifa mu a ɔnante wɔ sika nkaneadua nson no ntam no.
2 I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience, and that thou canst not bear those that are evil: and thou hast tried those who say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars; and hast borne trouble, and hast patience;
Menim deɛ woayɛ. Menim nsi a wode ayɛ adwuma ne boasetɔ a wowɔ. Menim sɛ wonnye nnebɔneyɛfoɔ, na afei woasɔ wɔn a wɔka sɛ wɔyɛ asomafoɔ nanso wɔnnyɛ bi no ahwɛ, na woahunu sɛ wɔyɛ atorofoɔ.
3 and for my name's sake thou hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
Wowɔ boasetɔ, na me enti, woahunu amane bebree, nanso wompaa aba.
4 Yet I have somewhat against thee; for thou hast left thy first love.
Nanso, deɛ mewɔ tia wo ne sɛ, wonnɔ me, sɛdeɛ kan no na wodɔ me no.
5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works: else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of its place, if thou repent not.
Hunu ba a woaba fam no. Te wo ho firi bɔne ho na yɛ sɛdeɛ kane no na woyɛ no. Sɛ woantwe wo ho amfiri wo bɔne ho a, mɛba wo nkyɛn na mabɛyi wo kaneadua no afiri ne siberɛ.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Nanso, deɛ ɛyɛ wɔ wo ho ne sɛ, wokyiri deɛ Nikolaifoɔ no yɛ no, na saa ara na me nso mekyiri.
7 Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
Deɛ ɔwɔ aso no ntie deɛ Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo ahodoɔ no bi. Wɔn a wɔadi nkonim no, mɛma wɔn tumi na wɔadi nkwadua a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn paradise hɔ.
8 And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write, These things saith the First and the Last, who was dead and is alive;
“Twerɛ krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔtua Smirna asafo no ano sɛ: Saa asɛm yi firi Ahyɛaseɛ ne Awieeɛ no nkyɛn. Deɛ ɔwuiɛ na ɔnyaneeɛ no.
9 I know thy works and affliction and poverty (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of those that say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Menim amane a wohunu maa Awurade na menim wʼahiasɛm nyinaa nso, nanso wowɔ agyapadeɛ wɔ ɔsoro. Menim nsɛm a wɔn a wɔse wɔyɛ Yudafoɔ nanso wɔnyɛ Yudafoɔ no ka tia wo. Wɔyɛ ɔbonsam apamfoɔ.
10 Fear none of the things which thou wilt suffer: behold the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall suffer affliction ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Nsuro ɔhaw a ɛrebɛto wo no. Tie! Wɔde mo mu bi bɛto afiase na ɔbonsam nam so asɔ mo ahwɛ. Na mo haw bɛdi dadu. Sɛ owuo mu mpo a, gye me di na mɛma wo nkwa abotire.
11 Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. He, that overcometh, shall not be hurt by the second death.
Deɛ ɔwɔ aso no ntie deɛ Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no. Wɔn a wɔdi nkonim no renwu owuprenu.
12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write, These things saith He, who hath the sharp two-edged sword;
“Twerɛ krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔwɔ Pergamo asafo mu sɛ: Saa krataa yi firi deɛ ɔwɔ akofena anofanu a ɛyɛ nnam no nkyɛn.
13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and yet thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr; who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
Menim sɛ faako a wote no, ɛhɔ na ɔbonsam ahennwa si. Wodi me nokorɛ; na ɛberɛ a wɔkumm Antipa a ɔyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafoɔ wɔ faako a ɔbonsam te no mpo, woampa me.
14 But I have a few things against thee; for thou hast there those that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumbling-block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.
Nanso, nneɛma kakra a mewɔ tia wo ne sɛ, nnipa bi a wɔdi Bileam nkyerɛkyerɛakyi no ka wo ho wɔ hɔ. Saa Bileam no na ɔkyerɛɛ Balak maa ɔmaa Israelfoɔ dii abosom so nnuane, kyerɛɛ wɔn adwamammɔ, nam so ma wɔyɛɛ bɔne no.
15 So thou hast also them that hold the like doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which I hate.
Saa ara nso na wowɔ nnipa bi ka wo ho a wɔdi Nikolaifoɔ nkyerɛkyerɛ akyi.
16 Repent therefore---if not, I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword that goeth out of my mouth.
Twe wo ho firi wo bɔne ho. Anyɛ saa a, ɛrenkyɛre biara mɛba wo nkyɛn, na mede sekan a ɛfiri mʼanom no abɛko atia saa nnipa no.
17 Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna: and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knoweth, but He that receiveth it.
Deɛ ɔwɔ aso no ntie deɛ Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo ahodoɔ no. Mo a moadi nkonim no, mɛma mo mana a ahinta no bi. Afei, mɛma wɔn mu biara ɛboɔ fitaa a wɔatwerɛ din foforɔ wɔ so a obiara nnim, gye onipa a wɔde bɛma no no.
18 And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write, These things saith the Son of God, who hath eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet like fine brass; I know thy works,
“Twerɛ krataa kɔma ɔbɔfoɔ a ɔwɔ Tiatira asafo mu sɛ: Yei ne asɛm a ɛfiri Onyankopɔn Ba no a nʼani dɛre sɛ ogyaframa a ne nan ase hyerɛn sɛ ayowaa no nkyɛn.
19 and thy love, and thy service, and thy faith, and thy patience, and that thy last works are more than the first.
Menim deɛ woyɛ. Menim wo dɔ, wo gyidie, wo som ne boasetɔ a wowɔ. Menim sɛ woreyɛ adwuma sene kane no.
20 But I have a few things against thee; because thou sufferest the woman Jezabel, who saith that she is a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
Nanso deɛ mewɔ tia wo ne sɛ, wogyee ɔbaa bi a ne din de Isabel, a ɔfrɛ ne ho, Onyankopɔn odiyifoɔ no too mu. Saa ɔbaa yi kyerɛkyerɛ, na ɔdi mʼasomafoɔ anim ma wɔbɔ adwaman di abosom aduane.
21 And I gave her time to repent of her fornication, and she repented not.
Mama no ɛberɛ sɛ ɔnnu ne ho mfiri ne bɔne mu, nanso ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔsakyera firi nʼadwamammɔ mu.
22 Behold I will cast her into a bed, and those that commit whoredom with her, into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds:
Ɛno enti, sɛ wɔansesa amfiri amumuyɛ a wɔne no yɛeɛ no mu a, mɛto no ahwe mpa so na ɔno ne wɔn a wɔsɛe awadeɛ no ahunu amane a ano yɛ den yie.
23 and I will cut off her children by death; and all the churches shall know, that I am He who searcheth the reins and hearts, and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Afei, mɛkum nʼakyidifoɔ no, na asafo no nyinaa bɛhunu sɛ mene obi a mehunu nnipa adwene mu ne wɔn akɔnnɔ. Deɛ mo mu biara yɛeɛ no, mɛtua no so ka pɛpɛɛpɛ.
24 But to you I say, to the rest in Thyatira, As many as do not hold this doctrine, and who are unacquainted with the depths of Satan, as they speak, I will lay on you no other burden:
Nanso, momu bi a mowɔ Tiatira no nni saa nkyerɛkyerɛ bɔne no akyi. Monsuaa deɛ afoforɔ frɛ no ‘Ɔbonsam asumansɛm’ no. Meka mekyerɛ mo sɛ, meremfa adesoa foforɔ biara nto mo so.
25 but what ye have hold fast till I come.
Na monsɔ deɛ mowɔ no mu denden kɔsi sɛ mɛba.
26 And to him that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, will I give power over the nations:
Wɔn a wɔdi nkonim na wɔkɔ so yɛ deɛ mepɛ kɔsi awieeɛ no, mede tumi korɔ no ara a menya firii
27 and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken in pieces; as I also have received of my Father;
mʼAgya hɔ no bɛma wɔn. Mɛma wɔn aman so tumi na wɔde dadeɛ poma adi wɔn so na wɔabobɔ wɔn sɛ nkukuo.
28 and I will give him the morning-star.
Afei, mede anɔpa nsoromma bɛma wɔn.
29 Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Deɛ ɔwɔ aso no ntie deɛ Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no.
