1 “Gulembi hangu kwa ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa shipinga sha wantu shawamjimira Yesu wa aku Efesu. “Neni yankola ntondu zilii saba pakati pa liwoku lyangu lya mliwu na yomberi kagendagenda muvintambi saba vya limuliku lya zaabu, ntakula hangu,
Kwa malaika bha kanisa lya Efeso jhandikayi: 'Agha ndo malobhi gha jhola jhaikamu ila matonda ghala saba mu kibhoko kya muene kya kuume. Muene jhaigenda mu finara fya dhahabu fya taa saba ijobha naha,”
2 nuvimana matendu gaku goseri, nuvimana ntambu yagugangamala na kuhepelera kwaku. Nuvimana handa hapeni guwahepeleri wantu wadoda, guwajelisiya walii yawalitakulira kuwera wantumintumi na kumbiti ndiri, guyambuliti womberi ndo wapaya.
“Nimanyili kyaukhelili ni bidii jha jhobhi jha mbombo ni uvumilivu bhwa jhobhi thabiti, ni kwamba ghwibhwesya lepi kuhusiana nabhu bhabhajhele bhaovu, na ubhajaribu bhoha bhabhikikuta kujha mitume kumbe lepi, na bhabhonekene kujha bhadesi.
3 Gwenga gwanawu uhepelera, guhepelera kwa kutabika kuvuwa kwajili ya litawu lyangu, kumbiti guwuya ndiri kumbeli.
Nimanyili kujha ujhe ni subira ni uvumilivu, na ubhwesi ghamehele kwa ndabha jha lihina lya nene, na utondilepi bado.
4 Kumbiti nanashi shitwatira shimu shakukuberiziya, gwenga gunfira ndiri kayi vinu gambira kwanja.
Lakini ele ndo lyanijhe nalu dhidi jha jhobhi, ughulekili upendo ghwa jhobhi bhwa kubhwandelu.
5 Su guliholi ntambu yaguweriti pamberi pa kuguwa, gukawungami na kutenda ntambu yagutenditi kwanja. Hera hangu, niza kwa gwenga na kushiwusiya shintambi shaku pahala pakuwi.
Kwa hiyo ukhombokayi pa ubinili, ukatubuajhi ni kubhomba matendo ghaubhombeghe kuh'omela kubhuandu. Ukabelayi kutubu, nibeta kuhida kwa bhebhe ni kukibhosya kinara kya jhobhi kuh'oma mahali pa kyene.
6 Kumbiti nukuzyuma kwa shintu shimu, gwenga gugakalalira gawagatenda Wanikolayi ntambu yanugakalalira neni.”
Lakini bhebhe ujhe ni ele, ghwidada ghala ambagho Bhanikolai bhaghabhombili, ambagho hata ni ghadadili.
7 “Yakawera na makutu su kapikaniri weri galii Rohu yakavigambira vipinga vya wantu vyawamjimira Yesu! “Mkanka hanumpanani kuliya mabwajubwaju ga mtera gwa ukomu yagulikala mu shiwunga sha Mlungu.
Kama ujhe ni mb'olokoto, pelekesiajhi ghala ambagho Roho akaghajobhela makanisa. Na jhaibeta kushinda nibeta kumpela kibali kya kulya kuhoma mu libehe lya uzima lyajhele mu Paradiso jha K'yara.'
8 “Gulembi hangu kwa ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa shipinga sha wantu shawamjimira Yesu wa aku Simurina. “Avi ndo visoweru vya ulii gwa kwanja na gwa upeleru, namweni howiti na kulikala kayi, nonga hangu.
“Kwa malaika bha kanisa lya Smirna jhandikayi: 'Agha ndo malobhi gha jhola. ambajhe ndo mwanzo ni mwishu ambajhe afuili ni kujha hai kabhele:
9 Nuzimana ntabika zyaku, nuumana viraa uhushu waku, tembera nakaka gwenga ndo mlunda, nuzimana nyengu zyawakutendiriti walii yawalishema Wayawudi kumbiti Wayawudi ndiri wanakaka, su ndo shipinga shakuwi Shetani!
“Nimanyili malombosi ghako ni umaskini bhwa jhobhi (lakini bhebhe ndo tajiri), ni udesi bhwa bhala bhabhikikuta bhayahudi (lakini lepi - bhene ndo sinagogi lya syetani).
10 Nagutira nakamu kwa galii hagakutendi gutenduwi. Gupikaniri! Shetani hakawajeri kwa kuwatula wamu wenu mshibetubetu, mwenga hamtabiki kwa katepu mashaka lilongu. Muweri waminika mpaka kuhowa, naneni hanuwapanani lijenjeri lya ukomu.”
Usitili malombosi ghaghibeta kukabha. Langayi! Ibilisi ilonda kubhatagha baadhi jha muenga muligereza ili mubhwesiajhi kujaribibhwa, na mwibeta kutesibhwa kwa magono kumi. Mujhelayi mwebhaaminifu hadi kufwa, na nibeta kubhapela taji jha uzima.
11 “Yakawera na makutu su kapikaniri weri galii Rohu yakavigambira vipinga vya wantu vyawamjimira Yesu! “Mkanka hapeni katenduwi nakamu na kuhowa kwa pili.
Kama ujhe ni mb'olokoto, pelekesiajhi Roho kyaakaghajobhela makanisa. Muene jha ibeta kushinda ibetalepi kukabha mauti gha pili.'
12 “Gulembi hangu kwa ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa shipinga sha wantu shawamjimira Yesu wa aku Perigamu. “Avi ndo visoweru vya ulii yakawera na upanga ukalipa wana ukola kuwili.
Kwa malaika bha kanisa lya Pergamo jhandikayi: 'Agha ndo ghaijobha muene jhaajhe ni upanga obhu mkali, bhwabhujhe ni makali kubhele.
13 Nukumana kwagulikala. Gwenga gulikala pahala papawera na shibanta sha ufalumi wa Shetani! Kumbiti gwankali mwaminika kwa neni. Gunemiti ndiri kunjimira ata lishaka lilii lya Antipa, kapitawu gwangu mwaminika, ulii pakalagitwi pakati pamwenga palii pakalikala Shetani.
“Nimanyili mahali paghwitama mahali pa kijhele kiti kya enzi kya shetani. Hata naha bhebhe ulikamuili sana lihina lya nene, na ghwajhibelili lepi imani jha jhobhi jhaijhele kwa nene hata magono ghala gha Antipasi shahidi ghwa nene, mwaminifu ghwa nene, jhaakhomibhu miongoni mwa jhomu, apu ndo syetani itama.
14 Kumbiti nanaga madidini kwa mwenga gaherepa ndiri. Muwera na wantu yawakola mafundu ga Balamu yakamfunditi Balaki kuwalekaniziya wana wa Israeli waliyi viboga vyawatambikiriti vinyagu na kutenda uhumba.
Lakini nijheni mambo madebe dhidi jha bhebhe: ujhe nabhu okhu bhanu bhabhikamula mafundisu gha Balaamu, muene jhaamfundisi Balaki kubheka fikwazo palongolo jha bhene bha Israeli ili bhaliajhi fyakulya fya fipisibhu sadaka kwa masieto ni kuzini.
15 Ntambu iraayi, kwana wamu wenu wantu vilaa yawafata mafundu ga Wanikolayi.
Mu hali ejhu hata bhebhe ujhe ni baadhi jha bhene bhikamula mafundisu gha Bhanikolai.
16 Su guleki madoda. Hera hangu, hanizi kwa gwenga kanongola na kulikomanga na wantu awa kwa upanga waulawa mumlomu mwaneni.
Basi tubuajhi! Na ubelili kukheta naha, nihida manyata, na nibeta kukheta vita dhidi jha bhene kwa upanga bhwa bhwihomela mu kinywa kya nene.
17 “Yakawera na makutu su kapakiniri weri galii Rohu kankuvigambira vipinga vya wantu vyawamjimira Yesu! “Mkanka hakampanani shiboga shawashishema mana, shilii shashififikiti. Hanumpanani vulaa libuwi lifufu lyalilembitwi litawu lya syayi lyeni kwahera muntu yakalimaniti ira walii hera yawalyankiti.
Kama ujhe ni mb'olokoto, pelekesiajhi Roho kya ikabhajobhela makanisa. Muene jha ibeta kushinda nibeta kumpela baadhi jha jhela mana jhajhafighibhu, kabhele nibeta kumpela liganga libhalabhu lya litembibhu lihina lipya panani pa liganga, lihina ambalya ajhelepi jha alimanyili isipokujha muene jhaakalipokela.'
18 “Gulembi hangu kwa wantumintumi wa kumpindi wa vipinga vya wantu vyawamjimira Yesu wa aku Tuatira, awu ndo ujumbi wa Mwana gwa Mlungu, masu gakuwi gang'ereng'eta gambira motu, na magulu gakuwi gang'ereng'eta gambira shaba yawasuguliti.
Kwa malaika bha kanisa lya Thiatira jhandikayi: “Agha ndo malobhi gha mwana ghwa K'yara, muene jha ajhe ni mihu gha muene kama mwali ghwa muoto, ni jhayu kama shaba jhajhisugulibhu nasu:
19 Nuvimana vitwatira vyaku vyoseri. Nuumana ufiru waku na njimiru yaku na untumintumi waku na uhepeleru waku. Gwenga gutenda viherepa nentu vinu kuliku kwanja palii.
Nimanyili gha ubhombili - upendo bhwa jhobhi ni imani ni huduma ni uvumilivu bhwa jhobhi thabiti, ni kujha khela kya ukhetili naha karibuni ndo zaidi jha khela kya abhombili kubhuandu.
20 Kumbiti nanashi shitwatira shimu kwa gwenga shiherepa ndiri. Gwenga gulijimilirana ndiri na mdala ulii Yezeberi yakalishema mbuyi gwa Mlungu, yakafunda na kuwapotuziya wantumintumi waneni watendi uhumba na kuliya viboga vyavitambikilitwi vinyagu.
Lakini nijhe ni e'le dhidi jha bhebhe: ukamvumilila n'dala Yezebeli jhaikikuta muene nabii n'dala. Kwa mafundisu gha muene, akabhapotosya bhatumishi bha nene kuzini ni kulya kyakulya kya kipisibhu sadaka kwa sanamu.
21 Numupanana shipindi sha kuleka madoda, kumbiti kalema kulekana na uhumba wakuwi.
Nampelili muda bhwa kutubu, lakini ajhelepi tayari kutubila uovu bhwa muene.
22 Gupikaniri! Vinu nankumwazibu kwa malweli yomberi pamuhera na woseri yawatenditi uhumba nayu, hawapananwi ntabika nkulu handa pawaleka ndiri madoda matendu gawu madoda gawatenditi nayomberi.
Langayi! Nibetakun'tagha mu kitanda kya maradhi, ni bhala bhabhibhomba uasherati naku mu malombosi makali, vinginevyo bhatubuajhi kwa kyabhakhetili.
23 Kayi hanuwalagi wantumini wakuwi, su vipinga vya wantu vyamjimira Yesu vyoseri vivimani handa neni ndo yandolandola myoyu na maholu ga wantu. Na hanumtozi kila yumu kulawirana na matendu gakuwi.
Nibeta kubhatobha bhana bhabhi bhafuajhi ni makanisa ghoha ghibetakumanya nene ndo nikaghalangilila mawazo ni tamaa. Nibeta kumpela khila mmonga bhinu kadri jha matendo gha muene.
24 “Kumbiti wamonga mwenga yamuwera aku Tuatira mfata ndiri mafundu gakuwi Yezeberi na mlifunditi ndiri shilii shawashishemiti bada ya Shetani, nuwagambireni kuwera hapeni nuwapanani shisanka shamonga.
Lakini kwa baadhi jha muenga jhamubakili mu Thiatira, kwa bhala mwebhoha jha mkamuili lepi lifundisu e'le, na jha mumanyilepi khela ambakyo baadhi bhikuta mafumbo gha shetani, nijobha kwa muenga, 'Nibeta lepi kubheka kwa muenga n'sighu ghoghuoha ghola.'
25 Mwenga mkoleleri galii gamuwera naga vinu mpaka paniza kayi.”
Kwa lijambo lyolyoha, lazima mujhelayi imara mpaka panibeta kuhida.
26 Mkanka na yakendereya kutenda vitwatira vyanuvifira mpaka upeleru, hanumpanani ukulu kwa wantu wa maisi.
Jhejhioha jhaibeta kushinda ni kubhomba khela kya nibhomba I mpaka kumwisu, muene nibeta kumpela mamlaka panani pa mataifa.
27 Handa neni nanka ukulu kulawa kwa Tati gwangu na yomberi hakawalonguziyi kwa luhonga lwa shuma na kuwamegamega gambira vyombu vya litapaka.
'Ibetakubhatawala kwa ndongo jha chuma, kama makaburi gha udongo, ibetakubhatenya fipandi.'
28 Kayi hanumpanani ntondu ya mandawira.
Kama kyanipokili kuhoma kwa Dadi jhangu, nibeta kumpela kabhele litondo lya lukhela.
29 “Yakawera na makutu su kagapikiniri weri galii Rohu yakavigambira vipinga vya wantu vyawamjimira Yesu!
Ukajhelayi ni mb'olokoto, pelekesiajhi khela ambakyo Roho akaghajobhela makanisa.'
