Mi Dɔgdima 3

1 Diani ki teni Sardisi Kiristi jaancagli maleki: Yua n kubi U Tienu malekinba lele yeni ŋmaabila lele lanbona n ne: “N bani ŋan tieni yaali. A yeli doni ke a fo, ama, a kpe o.

“And to the messenger of the assembly in Sardis write: These things says He who is having the Seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars: I have known your works, and that you have the name that you live, and you are dead;

2 Findi ki paagi yaali n sieni ki caa mi kuuma po, Kelima n naa la a tuonŋana N Tienu nintuali.

be watching, and strengthen the rest of the things that are about to die, for I have not found your works fulfilled before God.

3 Lanwani ii, ŋan ya tiani ŋan ga yaali yeni ŋan gbadi yaali. Ya cɔlni li, ki tuubi. Ama a ya ki findi, n ba cua a kani nani suuro yeni, a kan bandi min ba cua ya yognu ki woli a.

Remember, then, what you have received and heard, and keep [it] and convert: if, then, you may not watch, I will come on you as a thief, and you may not know what hour I will come on you.

4 Ama, bi niba ye waamu Sardi dogu nni, bani ki jɔgni bi tialakaadi. Banwani ba la ti tiapiendi, ki cuoni yeni nni, kelima bi dagdi yeni li.

You have a few names even in Sardis who did not defile their garments, and they will walk with Me in white, because they are worthy.

5 Ya nilo n kɔni mi jama, ki paadi, o ba la ti tiapiendi, N kan piini wanya yeli li miali tili nni, n go ba taa o yeli n Báa yeni o malekinba nintuali.

The [one] thus overcoming will be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Scroll of Life, and I will confess his name before My Father, and before His messengers.

6 Yua n pia tubli wan cengi Foŋanma ń maadi Kiristi jaancaga yaali.” “

He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.

7 “Diani ki teni Filadelfi Kiristi jaancagli: Yua ŋani, ki go tie o mɔmɔnmaano lanbona n ne - o kubi Dafidi dieluodpiemi, o ya luodi obakuli kan fidi ki luoni, o ya luon i, obakuli kan fidi ki luodi.

And to the messenger of the assembly in Philadelphia write: These things says the Holy [One], the True [One], having the key of David, the [One] opening and no one will shut, and shutting and no one opens:

8 “N bani ŋan tieni yaali. Diidi! N luodi a po ya bulñɔbu ke nilo bakuli kan fidi ki luoni. N bani ke a pia mi tuama waamu, yeni lankuli, a cɔlni n ñɔmaama, kaa yedi ke a ki bani nni.

I have known your works; behold, I have set before you a door having been opened, which no one is able to shut it, because you have little power, and yet have kept My word, and have not denied My Name;

9 Diidi! Yaaba n tie Sutaani budieli yaaba, yaaba n yedi ke bi tie Juufinba, ki naa tie ba; bi pua faama i. N ba cedi ban cua ki gbaani a nunga nni, lani ke bi ba bandi ke n bua ŋa

behold, I give from the synagogue of Satan—those saying themselves to be Jews, and are not, but lie—behold, I will make them that they may come and prostrate before your feet, and may know that I loved you.

10 Nnli ŋan cɔlni n ñɔmaama, ki juuni ki ga fala, N mo baa kubi a ki guudi a mi biigma yognu, ya biginli n kpendi ŋanduna kuli po, ki ba bigni yaaba n ye ki tinga po.

Because you kept the word of My endurance, I also will keep you from the hour of the trial that is about to come on all the world, to try those dwelling on the earth.

11 N kpendi, li kan waagi. ŋan ŋanbi ki kubi ŋan pia yaali nilo bakuli ń da ti fie a badfegliga.

Behold, I come quickly, be holding fast that which you have, that no one may receive your garland.

12 Yua n kɔni mi jama, ki paadi, n ba seni o nani jaantalga yeni n Tienu jaandiegu nni, o baa tundi ki ye lankani kaa pia ñama. N ba diani o po n Tienu yeli, n Tienu dociamu yeli (Jeruselema paano yua n ñani n Tienu kani, o diema nni ki jiidi), yeni n yepaanli.

He who is overcoming—I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he may not go outside anymore, and I will write on him the Name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, that comes down out of Heaven from My God—also My new Name.

13 Yua n pia tubli wan cengi Foŋanma ń maadi Kiristi jaancagaa yaali.” “

He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.

14 “Diani ki teni Lawodise Kiristi jaancagli maleki: 'Yua n tie Ami, o kasiedidugika, o mɔmɔndaano, yua n die U Tienu tagma kuli.

And to the messenger of the assembly of the Laodiceans write: These things says the Amen, the Witness—the Faithful and True—the Chief of the creation of God:

15 “N bani a tuona kuli, ke ŋaa tuoni, a naa go sɔngi mo. N bi sugni ke ŋan ya sɔngi bii ŋan ya tuoni!

I have known your works, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish you were cold or hot.

16 Lanwani ii, nani ŋan balgi yeni - ŋaa tuoni, kaa go sɔngi mo yeni - N ba siini ki ñani a n ñɔbu nni.

So—because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am about to vomit you out of My mouth;

17 Kelima a yedi, 'N tie piado i, N den pia ŋalmani boncianla, n ji ki pia bonli kuli buama.' Ama ŋaa bani ke fini n ŋanbi ki tie cacagdaano, ban jie yua mi niñima, luodo, juamo, ki ye mubima (niiyanli).

because you say—I am rich, and have grown rich, and have need of nothing, and have not known that you are the wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked;

18 Cengi n cegli: ŋan daa n kani ban tongi ki duadi ya wula, ki tua piado, yeni ya tialakaadi n pieni ki ñilgi, ki la ki wuoni a mubili fee, daa mi kpama, ki sɔgi a nuni, ki fidi ya nua.

I counsel you to buy from Me gold fired by fire, that you may be rich, and white garments that you may be clothed, and the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed, and with eye-salve anoint your eyes, that you may see.

19 N tundi ki go bangi min bua yaaba, ki bangi ba ban baa ye maama. Lanwani ii, ŋan baa mi yama, ki tuubi.

As many as I cherish, I convict and discipline; be zealous, then, and convert;

20 Diidi! N se bu bulñɔbu kani, ki kuogi. Yua n gbadi n nialu, ki luodi li ganli, n ba kua o deni, ki di yeni o, wan di yeni nni.

behold, I have stood at the door, and I knock; if anyone may hear My voice, and may open the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.

21 Yua n kɔni mi jama ki paadi, n ba puni o u sanu, wan kali yeni nni n badigbandi po, nani min kɔni mi jama ki paadi, ki kaa yeni n Báa o badigbandi po yeni.

He who is overcoming—I will give to him to sit with Me in My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father in His throne.

22 Yua pia tubli wan cengi Foŋanma ń maadi Kiristi jaancaga yaali.” “

He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.”
