< Откровение ап. Иоанна Богослова 3 >
1 И Ангелу Сардийския церкве напиши: тако глаголет Имеяй седмь духов Божиих и седмь звезд: вем твоя дела, яко имя имаши яко жив, а мертв еси.
And to the angel of the church in Sardis write; The one having the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars, says these things; I know your works, that you have a name that you are living, and are dead.
2 Буди бдя и утверждая прочая, имже умрети: не обретох бо дел твоих скончаных пред Богом (твоим).
Be you watchful, and strengthen the remaining things, which are about to die. For I have not found your works perfect before my God.
3 Поминай убо, како приял еси и слышал еси, и соблюдай и покайся. Аще убо не бдиши, прииду на тя яко тать, и не имаши почути, в кий час прииду на тя.
Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If you do not watch, I will come as a thief, and you shall not know what hour I will come upon you.
4 Но имаши мало имен и в Сардии, иже не оскверниша риз своих, и ходити имут со Мною в белых, яко достойни суть.
But you have a few names in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: because they are worthy.
5 Побеждаяй, той облечется в ризы белыя, и не имам отмыти имене его от книг животных, и исповем имя его пред Отцем Моим и пред Ангелы Его.
The one conquering shall thus be clothed in white garments; and I will not blot out his name from the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and in the presence of his angels.
6 Имеяй ухо да слышит, что Дух глаголет церквам.
Let the one having ears hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
7 И Ангелу Филаделфийския церкве напиши: тако глаголет Святый Истинный, имеяй ключь Давидов, отверзаяй, и никтоже затворит, затворяяй, и никтоже отверзет:
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; The holy, true one, the one having the key of David, the one opening, and no one shall shut; and the one shutting, and no one shall open; says these things.
8 вем твоя дела: се, дах пред тобою двери отверсты, и никтоже может затворити их: яко малу имаши силу, и соблюл еси Мое слово, и не отверглся еси имене Моего.
I know your works; behold, I have given before you an open door, which no one is able to shut: and you have a little power, and you have kept my word, and not denied my name.
9 Се, даю от сонмища сатанина глаголющыяся быти Иудеи, и не суть, но лгут: се, сотворю их, да приидут и поклонятся пред ногама твоима, и уразумеют, яко Аз возлюбих тя.
Behold, I give of the synagogue of Satan, those who say they are Jews, and are not, but are lying; behold, I will make them that they shall come and worship before thy feet, and may know that I have loved thee with divine love.
10 Яко соблюл еси слово терпения Моего, и Аз тя соблюду от годины искушения, хотящия приити на всю вселенную искусити живущыя на земли.
Because you have kept the word of my patience, and I will keep you from the hour of temptation, which is about to come upon the whole world, to try those dwelling upon the earth.
11 Се, гряду скоро: держи, еже имаши, да никтоже приимет венца твоего.
I am coming quickly: hold fast that which you have, that no one may take your crown.
12 Побеждающаго сотворю столпа в церкви Бога Моего, и боле не имать изыти ктому: и напишу на нем имя Бога Моего и имя града Бога Моего, новаго Иерусалима, сходящаго с небес от Бога Моего, и имя Мое новое.
The one conquering, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out no more: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God: and my new name.
13 Имеяй ухо да слышит, что Дух глаголет церквам.
Let the one having ears, hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
14 И Ангелу Лаодикийския церкве напиши: тако глаголет Аминь, свидетель верный и истинный, начаток создания Божия:
And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write; The Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God, says these things;
15 вем твоя дела, яко ни студен еси ни тепл: не да студен бы был ни тепл.
I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I would that you were either cold or hot.
16 Тако, яко обуморен еси, и ни тепл ни студен, изблевати тя от уст Моих имам.
Thus because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to spew you out of my mouth.
17 Зане глаголеши, яко богат есмь и обогатихся и ничтоже требую: и не веси, яко ты еси окаянен и беден, и нищь и слеп и наг.
Because you are saying, That I am rich, and have increased in riches, and have need as to nothing, and do you not know that you are miserable, and pitiful, and poor, and blind, and naked?
18 Совещаю тебе купити от Мене злато разжжено огнем, да обогатишися, и одеяние бело, да облечешися, и да не явится срамота наготы твоея: и коллурием помажи очи твои, да видиши.
I counsel you to buy from me gold which has been purified by the fire, in order that you may be rich; and white garments, in order that you may be clothed, and the shame of your nakedness may not be exposed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see.
19 Аз, ихже аще люблю, обличаю и наказую. Ревнуй убо и покайся.
So many as I love, I rebuke and chastise; be zealous, and repent.
20 Се, стою при дверех и толку: аще кто услышит глас Мой и отверзет двери, вниду к нему и вечеряю с ним, и той со Мною.
Behold, I stand at the door, and am knocking: if any one may hear my voice, and may open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 Побеждающему дам сести со Мною на престоле Моем, якоже и Аз победих и седох со Отцем Моим на престоле Его.
The one conquering, I will give unto him to sit with me on my throne, as I indeed have conquered, and sat down with my Father on his throne.
22 Имеяй ухо да слышит, что Дух глаголет церквам.
Let the one having ears hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
