Kuso isithunywa sebandla leEfesu bhala uthi: Lezizinto uyazitsho lowo ophethe inkanyezi eziyisikhombisa esandleni sakhe sokunene, ohamba phakathi kweziqobane zezibane zegolide eziyisikhombisa,
2 “'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.
uthi: Ngiyayazi imisebenzi yakho, lomsebenzi wakho onzima, lokubekezela kwakho, lokuthi ungebamele ababi, lokuthi ubahlolile labo abazithi bangabaphostoli kodwa bengeyisibo, wasubathola bengabaqambimanga,
3 Nimenyele uli no myoyo kwo okutendesha no kwigumilisha, na walabhile ku mafu kunsonga ya lisina lyani, na uchali kuigwa.
wasuthwala, ulokubekezela, wakhuthala ngenxa yebizo lami, kawudinwanga.
4 Mbe nawe gunu Nigwo nilinagwo mu bhutasikene nawe ati, wasigile elyenda lyao elyokwamba.
Kodwa ngilokumelene lawe ukuthi udelile uthando lwakho lwakuqala.
5 Kulwejo nuwichuke anu waguye, ute no kukola ebhikolwa bhinu wakolele okusoka ku bhwambilo. Ukalema okuta, enikujako no okuisoshao inomyo yao anu ili.
Ngakho khumbula lapho owe khona, ubusuphenduka wenze imisebenzi yakuqala; uba kungenjalo, ngizakuza kuwe ngokuphangisa, ngizasusa isiqobane sesibane sakho endaweni yaso, uba ungaphenduki;
6 Mbe nawe awe una linu ati, utamangenwe galiya ganu abhanikolai bhakolele, nolwo Anye one nitamangenwe nago.
kanti ulalokhu ukuthi uyayizonda imisebenzi yamaNikolayitha, engiyizondayo lami.
7 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.'
Lowo olendlebe kezwe lokho akutshoyo uMoya emabandleni. Onqobayo ngizamnika ukuthi adle okwesihlahla sempilo esiphakathi kweParadise likaNkulunkulu.
8 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:
Lakuso isithunywa sebandla leSemerna bhala uthi: Lezizinto utsho owokuqala lowokucina, owayefile njalo uyaphila:
9 “'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).
Ngiyayazi imisebenzi lokuhlupheka lobuyanga bakho (kanti unothile) lenhlamba yalabo abathi bangamaJuda, kanti bengeyisiwo, kodwa belisinagoge likaSathane.
10 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.
Ungesabi lutho lwalezozinto ozahlupheka ngazo; khangela udiyabhola uzaphosela abanye kini entolongweni, ukuze lilingwe; futhi lizakuba lenhlupheko insuku ezilitshumi. Bana ngothembekileyo kuze kube sekufeni, njalo ngizakunika umqhele wempilo.
11 Alabha uli no kutwi, tegelesha ganu lwa kutyo Mwoyo kagabhwila amakanisa. Omwene unu kaiga atakubhona mauta go lufu lya kabhili.'
Olendlebe kezwe lokho akutshoyo uMoya emabandleni. Onqobayo kasoze alinyazwa yikufa kwesibili.
12 Ku malaika wa likanisa elya Pergamo yandika: jinu nijo kaika omwene unu ali na lipanga elyo bhugi, elya mogi gabhili.
Lakuso isithunywa sebandla elisePergamo bhala uthi: Lezizinto utsho lowo olenkemba ebukhali inhlangothi zombili:
13 “'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.
Ngiyayazi imisebenzi yakho, lalapho ohlala khona, lapho okukhona isihlalo sobukhosi sikaSathane; njalo ugcinile ibizo lami, kawuphikanga ukholo lwami, ngitsho ensukwini zikaAntipasi, umfakazi wami othembekileyo, owabulawelwa phakathi kwenu, lapho uSathane ahlala khona;
14 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.
kodwa ngilezinto ezinlutshwana ezimelene lawe, ukuthi ulabo lapho ababambelela emfundisweni kaBalami, owafundisa uBalaki ukuphosa isikhubekiso phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, sokuthi badle okuhlatshelwe izithombe lokuthi baphinge.
15 Kwibhyo ebhyo, nolwo awe ulio na bhandi bhebhwe bhanu abhagwata ameigisho aga Bhanikolai.
Ngokunjalo lawe ulabo ababambelela emfundisweni yamaNikolayitha, into engiyizondayo.
16 Mbe nute! Alabha ukalema okukola kutyo, enija bhwangu, enijo okukola lilemo ingulu yao kwa lipanga linu elisoka mu Kanwa Kani.
Phenduka; uba kungenjalo, ngizakuza kuwe ngokuphangisa, ngizakulwa ngimelene labo ngenkemba yomlomo wami.
17 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.'
Olendlebe kezwe lokho akutshoyo uMoya emabandleni. Onqobayo ngizamnika ukuthi adle okwemana efihliweyo, njalo ngizamnika ilitshe elimhlophe, laphezu kwelitshe ibizo elitsha elilotshiweyo, okungelamuntu olaziyo ngaphandle kolemukelayo.
18 “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:
Lakuso isithunywa sebandla eliseTiyathira bhala uthi: Lezizinto itsho iNdodana kaNkulunkulu, elamehlo ayo anjengelangabi lomlilo, lenyawo zayo zifanana lethusi elikhazimulayo:
19 “'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.
Ngiyayazi imisebenzi yakho, lothando, lokukhonza, lokholo, lokubekezela kwakho, lemisebenzi yakho, ukuthi eyokucina minengi kuleyokuqala.
20 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.
Kodwa ngilezinto ezinlutshwana ezimelene lawe, ukuthi uvumele owesifazana uJezebeli, ozibiza ngokuthi ungumprofethikazi, ukufundisa aduhise inceku zami, ukuthi ziphinge lokuthi zidle okuhlatshelwe izithombe.
21 Namuyanile omwanya ogwo kuta, mbe nawe atakwenda kuta no kusiga obhubhibhi bhwaye.
Futhi ngamnika ithuba lokuthi aphenduke ekufebeni kwakhe, njalo kaphendukanga.
22 Mbe lola! enimwesa ku chitanda cho bhulwaye, na bhaliya bhanu abhakola obhusiani nage munyako nyafu, alabha jitali kutyo nibhate kuchinu akolele.
Khangela mina ngizamphosela embhedeni, labaphingayo laye ekuhluphekeni okukhulu, uba bengaphenduki emisebenzini yabo.
23 Enijo bhabhuma abhana bhaye bhafwe na Kanisa gone gamenye ati anye nanye unu katatilisha ameganilisho na inamba. Enimuyana bhuli umwi wemwe lwakutyo ebhikolwa bhyaye.
Njalo ngizabulala abantwana bakhe ngokufa; lamabandla wonke azakwazi ukuthi nginguye ohlola izinso lezinhliziyo; futhi ngizalinika, ngulowo lalowo, ngokwemisebenzi yenu.
24 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.'
Kodwa ngikhuluma lani labanye abaseTiyathira, bonke abangelayo le imfundiso, labangakwaziyo okujulileyo kukaSathane, njengokutsho kwabo: Kangiyikulethesa omunye umthwalo.
25 Ku musango gwone gwone, ni bhusi-bhusi mubhe bhakomee kukinga anu ndijila.
Kodwa lokho elilakho kubambisiseni, ngize ngifike.
26 Wona wona unu kasiga no kukola chilya nakolele kukinga ku bhutelo, ku mwenene ndimuyana okutunga ingulu ya Maanga.
Lonqobayo logcina imisebenzi yami kuze kube sekupheleni, ngizamnika amandla phezu kwezizwe;
27 'Alibhatunga kwa insimbo ye chuma, lwa jimbakuli eja mayalu, kabhata bhibhala bhalagi.'
njalo uzazibusa ngentonga yensimbi; zizaphahlazwa njengezimbiza zebumba; njengalokhu lami ngikwemukele kuBaba.
28 Lwa kutyo nalamiye okusoka ku Lata wani, ndimuyana one ijota ya katondo.
Futhi ngizamnika indonsakusa.
29 Alabha uli no kutwi, nuungwe chilya chinu Mwoyo kagabhwila amakanisa.'
Olendlebe kezwe lokho akutshoyo uMoya emabandleni.
