1 Hu ntumwa owi kanisa elya Sardi simba: 'Amazu ogola yakhatilila zila empepo saba ezya Ngolobhe ne ntondwe saba. “Emenye hashele obhombile. Oli ne sifa eyaje olimwomi o-lifwe.
2 Bhoha ogabheshesawa gagasageye, lelo gabhali gagapalamie afwe, afwatanaje sengalolile amambo gaho gakamilishe pamaso pa Ngolobhe wane.
3 Eshi izuha galagohaga posheye nagate jezye. Gogope mahweteshe. Lelo nkashele, sobhoha, ehayenza nashiomwibha sogohaimanya esala elihu yeha yenzela huliwe.
4 Lelo huli na matawa mashe agabhantu hu Sardi bhashele sebha ilufizye. Amenda gabho bhaijenda pandwemo nane, bhakwete amenda amazelu, afataneje bhaibhajila.
5 Ola yayimena aikwatiziwa amenda amazelu, sehailifuta itawa lyakwe afume hushitabu eshe hwomi, ehailitambula itawa lyakwe witagalila wa Baba wane, hwitagalila lya ntumi.
6 Nkoli ni kutu, tejezya Ompepo agabhozya amakanisa.”
7 Huntumi owikanisa lya Philadefia andika: Amazu yalimwinza nalyoli - yalinenfunkulo zya Daudi, afunga nomo yawezizye ahwigule.
8 Emenye hashele obhembile. Enya ebheshele witagalila lyaho olyango gwagwiguliwe gwashele nomo yawezizye. Ahwigule emenye olinazyo enguvu hashe, lelo olyogope izu lyane nasolikhene itawa lyane.
9 Enye! Bhonti bhabhali bhe kanisa lya setani, bhala bhabhayanga aje abhene Wayahudi nkombe sevebho, peshobhakhopela embabhabheshe bhenze. Ahwishe mmanamagane bhabhamanye aje ehagene.
10 Afatanaje obheshele endajizyo zyane avumilile hasa, embahulinde nesaa yaho, eyajalibiwe yashele ehwenza hunsi yonti, abhajalibu bhala bhoti bhabhakhala mnsi.
11 Ewenza nanali. Khatilila sana hala holinao asaliabhe omntu owahweje etaji yaho.
12 Embahubhombe oyo yamena abhe linyoha lyenyumba ya Ngolobhe wane, sagaaifuma hwonze nkahashe. Ehaisimba itawa lyakwe Ongolobhe wane, itawa elyeboma lya Ngolobhe wane (E Yelusalemu empya, yewiha pansi afume amwanya bha Ngolobhe wane), ni tawa lyane ipya.
13 Omwene yalinikutu, naayonvwe gashele Ompepo ayanga humakanisa.'
14 “Huntumi owikanisa lya Laodikia simba: 'Amazu gakwe gagali lyoli owategemele naoketi omwinza, omwanesho obhomba wa Ngolobhe.
15 Emenye hashele obhombile, aje awe soli lisasa nantele mwoto nasongwaga aje obhe lisasa olwenje mwoto!
16 Afwatanaje awe olifugutizu, saga mwoto wala lisasa embahutapishe ofume mwilomu lyane.
17 Afwataneje oyanga, “Ane endi neshoma, endi ne shoma shinyinji, sehwanza hahonti.” Lelo somenye aje awe olinsi sana, wazugumilile, pena, mpobhela nauliwelelo.
18 Tejezyo ulwanwo lwana: Kala huline edhahabu yeyoziwe humwoto opate abhe tajiri no mwenda ozeru gwagumelemeta okwatehwomwene osalanje welele waho, namafuta agapahale pamasogao obheolola.
19 Hata yegene ehulanganyinza nahufundizye shashihwanziwa akhale; wesho abhe hwelyoli na hweteshe.
20 Enya ehwemelela mndyanga ehwiguzya. Yayonti yahonvwa izu lyane nahwigula olyango, embahwenze nahwinjile mnyumba yakwe, nalye eshalyene hwo no mwene pandwemo nana.
21 Oyo yabhamene embahupele ehaki eyakale pansi pandwemo nane pamwanya pitengo lyane Igosi nashiane sehamenile nakhale pansi pandwemo no Baba wane pamwanya pitengo lyakwe igozi.
22 Oyo yali ni kutu, atejelezyaje gayanga Ompepo agabhozya amakanisa.”
