Ufunuo 3
1 Kwa malaika bha kanisa lya Sardi jhandikayi: 'Malobhi gha jhola jhaikamulila sela roho saba sya K'yara ni matondo saba. “Nimanyili kya ubhombili. Ujhe ni sifa jha kujha hai, lakini ghwe mfu.
And to the angel of the church in Sardes write: These things saith he who hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
2 Jhumukayi ni kuimarisya ghaghasiele, lakini ghajhe karibu kufwa, kwandabha naghabhwene lepi matendo gha jhobhi ghakamiliki pa mihu pa K'yara ghwangu.
Be watchful, and strengthen the remaining things, that were ready to die; for I have not found thy works perfect before my God.
3 Kwa hiyo, khombokayi ghala ghaughapokili ni kup'eleka. Ghatiajhi ni kutubu. Lakini ukabelayi kujhumuka, nibeta kuhida kama mmeji na wibeta lepi kumanya saa jheleku jhanibetakuhida panani pa bhebhe.
Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and keep those things, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come upon thee.
4 Lakini ghajhele mahina madebe gha bhanu mu Sardi ambabho bhachafwilepi nghobho sya bhene. Bhibeta kugenda pamonga ni nene bhafwalili nghobho sibhalafu, kwandabha bhakastahili.
But thou hast a few names in Sardes which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy.
5 Muene jhaibeta kushinda ibeta kufwatikibhwa maguanda mabhalafu, ni kamwe nikalifutalepi lihina lya muene kuhoma mu kitabu kya uzima, na nibetakulitaja lihina lya muene palongolo pa Dadi jhangu, ni palongolo pa malaika.
He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white garments; and I will not blot out his name from the book of life, and I will acknowledge his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6 Ukajhelayi ni mb'olokoto pelekesiajhi Roho kya akaghajobhela makanisa.”
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
7 “Kwa malaika bha kanisa lya Philadefia jhandikayi: Malobhi gha ajhele mtakatifu ni kweli - jhaajhe ni fungulu sya Daudi, ifungana ijhelepi ghwa kudendula, ifunga na ajhelepi jhaibhwesya kudendula.
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These things saith he who is holy, he who is true, he who hath the key of David; he who openeth, and no one shall shut; and shutteth, and no one shall open:
8 Nimanyili gha ukhetili. Langayi, nikubhokili palongolo pa jhobhi ndiangu bhwabhudendulibhu ambabho ajhelepi jha ibhwesya kubhudendula. Nimanyili ujhe ni nghofu kidogo, lakini ulijhedekili lilobhi lyangu na ulibelililepi lihina lya nene.
I know thy works; behold, I have set before thee an open door, which no one can shut; for thou hast little power, and yet hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
9 Langayi! Bhoha bhabhajhele bha sinagogi lya syetani, ni bhala bhabhijobha bhene Bhayahudi na kumbe lepi, bhadala jhiake bhikofya. Nibetakubhafwanya bhahidayi ni kusujudu palongolo pa magolo gha jhobhi, na bhibetamanya jha kujha nikuganili.
Behold, I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie, —behold, I will make them to come and bow down before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
10 Kwandabha utunzili amri jhangu kwa uvumilivu bhwa uthabiti, nibetakulenda kabhele mu saa jha jhobhi jha kujaribibhwa ambajho jhihida mu ulimwengu bhuoha, kubhajaribu bhala bhoha bhabhiishi mu nchi.
Because thou hast kept my injunction of endurance, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which is about to come upon the whole world, to try those who dwell upon the earth.
11 Nihida manyata kikamulilayi sana khela kya ujhe naku ili asijhi munu ghwa kutola taji jha bhebhe.
I come quickly; hold fast that which thou hast, that no one may take thy crown.
12 Nibetakheta muene ashindayi mu nguzo mu hekalu jha K'yara ghwangu, na ibetalepi kupita kwibhala kamwe. Nibetakulilemba lihina lya K'yara ghwangu (Yerusalemu mpya, jhaghwiselela pasi kuhoma kumbinguni kwa K'yara ghwangu), ni lihina lya nene lipya.
He that overcometh, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall nevermore go out; and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my Gods and I will write upon him my new name.
13 Muenga jha ajhele ni mbol'okoto, na apelekayi khela ambakyo Roho ijobha kwa makanisa.'
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
14 “Kwa malaika bha likanisa lya Laodikia jhandikayi: 'Malobhi gha muene jha amini, bhakutegemilibhwa ni shahidi mwaminifu, mtabhwala panani pa bhwa K'yara.
And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God:
15 Nimanyili kyaukhetili, ni kujha bhebhe ghwe mepu lepi wala muoto, ninogheleghe kujha ngaujhele ghwa mepu au muoto!
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 Efyo, kwandabha bhebhe ndo vuguvugu, ghwa muoto lepi wala ghwen'sisimu, nibeta kufunya upitayi mu ndomo mwa nene.
So then, because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to vomit thee out of my mouth.
17 Kukujha wijobha, “Nene ne tajiri, nijhele ni mali simehele, na nilonda lepi kyokyoha.” Lakini umanyililepi kujha bhebhe ghwe duni sana, ghwakuhuzunikibhwa, maskini, kipofu ni ngoli.
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and have gotten wealth, and have need of nothing, and knowest not that thou art the wretched and the pitiable one, and poor, and blind, and naked,
18 Pelekesiajhi ushauri bhwa nene: Hemelayi kwa nene dhahabu jhajhisukibhu kwa muoto ili abhwesiajhi kujha tajiri, ni nghobho sibhalafu sya kumelemele ili ukifwekayi ghwe muene na usilasi soni jha ngoli jha jhobhi, ni mafuta gha kubakala mu mihu gha jhobhi ghabhwesiajhi kulola.
I advise thee to buy of me gold refined by fire, that thou mayst be rich; and white garments, that thou mayst be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not be made manifest; and eye-salve to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayst see.
19 Khila jhanin'ganili, nikanjelekesya ni kubhafundisya namna jhajhilondeka kutama; henu, jhelayi ghwa mkweli ni kutubu.
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Langayi nijhema pandiangu ni kuhodisya. Jhejhioha jha ipelekayi sauti jha nene ni kudendula ndiangu, nibeta kuhida ni kujhingila munyumba jha muene ni kulya kyakulya pamonga ni muene ni muene pamonga ni nene.
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any one hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 Muene jhaishinda, nibeta kumpela haki jha kutama pasi pamonga ni nene nani panani pa kiti kyangu kya enzi, Kama vile nene kyanishindili ni kutama pasi ni Dadi jhangu panani pa kiti kya enzi.
He that overcometh, I will give to him to sit with me on my throne, even as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father on his throne.
22 Muene jha ajhele ni mbol'okoto, na apelekesiajhi ambakyo Roho ikaghajobhela makanisa.”
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches,
