1 “Ingilosi yebandla lase-Efesu ilobele uthi: La ngamazwi akhe lowo ophethe izinkanyezi eziyisikhombisa esandleni sakhe sokunene ehamba phakathi kwezinti zezibane zegolide eziyisikhombisa.
“Kyerɛw krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfo a otua Efeso asafo no ano, na ka kyerɛ no se: Eyi ne nsɛm a efi obi a okura nsoromma ason wɔ ne nsa nifa mu a ɔnantew wɔ sika akaneadua ason no ntam no hɔ.
2 Ngiyazazi izenzo zakho lokusebenza kwakho nzima kanye lokubekezela kwakho. Ngiyakwazi ukuthi awungeke ubabekezelele abantu abaxhwalileyo lokuthi ubahlolile labo abathi bangabapostoli, kodwa bengayisibo, njalo wabafumana bengabalamanga.
Minim nea woayɛ. Minim nsi a wode ayɛ adwuma ne boasetɔ a wowɔ. Minim sɛ wunnye nnebɔneyɛfo, na afei woasɔ wɔn a wɔka se wɔyɛ asomafo nanso wɔnnyɛ bi no ahwɛ, na woahu sɛ wɔyɛ atorofo.
3 Ubekezele waqinisela ebunzimeni ngenxa yebizo lami, kawaze wadinwa.
Wowɔ boasetɔ, na me nti woahu amane bebree, nanso wompaa abaw ɛ.
4 Kodwa ngilale insolo ngawe: Usuludelile uthando lwakho obulalo kuqala.
Nanso nea mewɔ tia wo ne sɛ, wonnɔ me sɛnea kan no na wodɔ me no.
5 Khumbula isiqongo owe kuso! Phenduka wenze izinto owawuzenza kuqala. Nxa ungaphenduki, ngizakuza kuwe, ngisuse uluthi lwakho lwesibane endaweni yalo.
Hu ba a woaba fam no. Sakra wʼadwene na yɛ sɛnea kan no na woyɛ no. Sɛ woansakra wʼadwene a, mɛba wo nkyɛn na mabeyi wo kaneadua no afi ne sibea.
6 Kodwa ulalokhu okuhle ngawe: Uyayizonda imikhuba yamaNikholayitha, engiyizondayo lami.
Nanso nea eye wɔ wo ho ne sɛ, wukyi nea Nikolaifo no yɛ no, na saa ara na me nso mikyi.
7 Lowo olendlebe, akezwe okutshiwo nguMoya emabandleni. Lowo onqobayo ngizamnika ilungelo lokudla esihlahleni sokuphila esisepharadise kaNkulunkulu.”
Nea ɔwɔ aso no ntie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo ahorow no. Wɔn a wɔadi nkonim no, mɛma wɔn tumi na wɔadi nkwadua a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn paradise hɔ.
8 “Ingilosi yebandla laseSimina ilobele uthi: La ngamazwi akhe yena oyisiQalo lesiPhetho, owafayo wabuya wavuka.
“Kyerɛw krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfo a otua Smirnaasafo no ano se: Saa asɛm yi fi Ɔkannifo ne Okyikafo no nkyɛn. Nea owui na ɔte ase bio no.
9 Ngiyazazi inhlupheko zakho kanye lobuyanga bakho, kanti-ke unothile! Ngiyakwazi ukuhlambaza kwalabo abathi bangamaJuda bengayisiwo, kodwa beyisinagogu kaSathane.
Minim amane a wuhu maa Awurade na minim wʼahiasɛm nyinaa nso, nanso wowɔ agyapade wɔ ɔsoro. Minim nsɛm a wɔn a wose wɔyɛ Yudafo nanso wɔnyɛ Yudafo no ka tia wo. Wɔyɛ ɔbonsam hyiadan.
10 Ungazesabi inhlupheko esezizakwehlela. Ngiyakutshela ukuthi uSathane uzabeka abanye benu entolongweni ukuba alilinge njalo lizahlukuluzwa okwensuku ezilitshumi. Thembeka, lanxa kuselungeni lokufa, mina ngizakupha umqhele wokuphila.
Nsuro ɔhaw a ɛrebɛto wo no. Tie! Wɔde mo mu bi bɛto afiase na ɔbonsam nam so asɔ mo ahwɛ. Na mo haw bedi nnafua du. Sɛ owu mu mpo a, gye me di na mɛma wo nkwa abotiri.
11 Lowo olendlebe, akezwe okutshiwo nguMoya emabandleni. Lowo onqobayo kasoze alinyazwe lakancane yikufa kwesibili.”
Nea ɔwɔ aso no ntie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no. Wɔn a wodi nkonim no renwu owuprenu.
12 “Ingilosi yebandla lasePhegamami ilobele uthi: La ngamazwi akhe lowo ophethe insingo.
“Kyerɛw krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfo a ɔwɔ Pergamo asafo mu se: Saa krataa yi fi nea ɔwɔ afoa anofanu a ɛyɛ nnam no nkyɛn.
13 Ngiyakwazi lapho ohlala khona, lapho uSathane alesihlalo sakhe. Ikanti wena uqhubeke uqotho ebizweni lami. Kawukuphikanga ukukholwa kwakho kimi, lasezinsukwini zika-Antiphasi, ufakazi wami othembekileyo, owabulawayo edolobheni lakini, lapho uSathane ahlala khona.
Minim sɛ faako a wote no, ɛhɔ na ɔbonsam ahengua si. Wudi me nokware; na bere a wokum Antipa a ɔyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafo wɔ faako a ɔbonsam te no mpo, woampa me.
14 Kodwa-ke, kulezinto ezimbalwa engilensolo ngazo kuwe: Kulabantu khonapho ababambelele emfundisweni kaBhalamu, owafundisa uBhalaki ukuhugela abako-Israyeli ekwenzeni isono ngokudla ukudla okwakunikelwe ezithombeni kanye langokuxhwala kobufebe.
Nanso nneɛma kakra a mewɔ tia wo ne sɛ, nnipa bi a wodi Bileam nkyerɛkyerɛakyi no ka wo ho wɔ hɔ. Saa Bileam no na ɔkyerɛɛ Balak ma ɔmaa Israelfo dii abosom so nnuan, kyerɛɛ wɔn aguamammɔ, nam so ma wɔyɛɛ bɔne no.
15 Njalo ulabanye ababambelele emfundisweni yamaNikholayitha.
Saa ara nso na wowɔ nnipa bi ka wo ho a wodi Nikolaifo nkyerɛkyerɛ akyi.
16 Ngakho-ke, phenduka! Hlezi ngize kuwe ngilwe labo ngenkemba yomlomo wami.
Twe wo ho fi wo bɔne ho. Anyɛ saa a, ɛrenkyɛ biara mɛba wo nkyɛn, na mede afoa a efi mʼanom no abɛko atia saa nnipa no.
17 Lowo olendlebe, akezwe okutshiwo nguMoya emabandleni. Lowo onqobayo, ngizamupha enye yemana efihliweyo. Ngizamupha lelitshe elimhlophe okulotshwe kulo ibizo elitsha, elaziwa ngulowo kuphela olamukelayo.”
Nea ɔwɔ aso no ntie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo ahorow no. Mo a moadi nkonim no, mɛma mo mana a ahintaw no bi. Afei, mɛma wɔn mu biara ɔbo fitaa a wɔakyerɛw din foforo wɔ so a obiara nnim, gye onipa a wɔde bɛma no no.
18 “Ingilosi yebandla laseThiyathira ilobele uthi: La ngamazwi eNdodana kaNkulunkulu, emehlo ayo anjengomlilo ovuthayo lezinyawo zayo zinjengethusi elikhazimulayo.
“Kyerɛw krataa kɔma ɔbɔfo a ɔwɔ Tiatira asafo mu se: Eyi ne asɛm a efi Onyankopɔn Ba no a nʼani dɛw sɛ ogyatannaa a ne nan ase hyerɛn sɛ asanka no nkyɛn.
19 Ngiyayazi imisebenzi yakho, uthando lokholo lwakho, kanye lokuthi khathesi ususenza okunengi kulakuqala.
Minim nea woyɛ. Minim wo dɔ, wo gyidi, wo som ne boasetɔ a wowɔ. Minim sɛ woreyɛ adwuma sen kan no.
20 Kodwa-ke, ngilale insolo ngawe: Uyambekezelela owesifazane lowana uJezebheli, ozibiza ngokuthi ngumphrofethikazi. Ngemfundiso yakhe udukisela izinceku zami ekuxhwaleni kobufebe lekudleni ukudla okunikelwe ezithombeni.
Nanso nea mewɔ tia wo ne sɛ, wugyee ɔbea bi a ne din de Isabel, a ɔfrɛ ne ho, Onyankopɔn odiyifo no too mu. Saa ɔbea yi kyerɛkyerɛ, na odi mʼasomafo anim ma wɔbɔ aguaman di abosom aduan.
21 Ngimnike isikhathi ukuba aphenduke ekuxhwaleni kwakhe, kodwa kafuni.
Mama no bere sɛ ɔnsakra mfi ne bɔne mu, nanso ɔmpɛ sɛ ɔsakra fi nʼaguamammɔ mu.
22 Ngakho ngizamphosela phezu kombheda wokuhlupheka, njalo labo afeba labo ngizabenza bahlupheke kakhulu, ngaphandle kokuba baphenduke ezindleleni zakhe.
Ɛno nti, sɛ wɔansakra amfi amumɔyɛ a wɔne no yɛe no mu a, mɛtow no ahwe mpa so na ɔno ne wɔn a wɔsɛe aware no ahu amane a ano yɛ den yiye.
23 Abantwabakhe ngizabatshaya bafe. Ngakho-ke, amabandla wonke azakwazi ukuthi mina nginguye ohlola inhliziyo lezingqondo njalo ngizavuza omunye lomunye wenu ngemisebenzi yenu.
Afei, mekunkum nʼakyidifono, na asafo no nyinaa behu sɛ mene obi a mihu nnipa adwene mu ne wɔn akɔnnɔ. Nea mo mu biara yɛe no, metua no so ka pɛpɛɛpɛ.
24 Manje-ke, ngithi kwabanye benu eThiyathira, kini elingabambelelanga emfundisweni yakhe njalo lingafundanga okuthiwa zimfihlo ezizikileyo zikaSathane, ‘Kangiyikulethesa omunye umthwalo,
Nanso mo mu bi a mowɔ Tiatira no nni saa nkyerɛkyerɛ bɔne no akyi. Munsuaa nea afoforo frɛ no, ‘Ɔbonsam asumansɛm’ no. Meka kyerɛ mo se, meremfa adesoa foforo biara nto mo so.

Na munso nea mowɔ no mu dennen nkosi sɛ mɛba.
26 Lowo onqobayo esenza intando yami kuze kube sekupheleni ngizamnika amandla phezu kwezizwe,

Nea ɔwɔ aso no ntie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no.
