\subsection{Revelation 3}
|
|
\VS{1} And to the angel of the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} in Sardis write: These [things] says the [one] having the seven spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your works, that you have [a] name that you are zoe-alive\fnZoe{} and you are dead.
|
|
\VS{2} Become watching [ones], and establish the rest which are [about] to be dying, for I have not found your works fulfilled before my God.
|
|
\VS{3} Be remembering therefore, how you received
|
|
and heard, and keep and repent. If you therefore be not watchful, I will
|
|
come as [a] thief, and you will not know in what sort of hour I come upon you.
|
|
\VS{4} But you have [a] few names in Sardis which have not stained their
|
|
garments, and they will walk with me in white, because they are worthy.
|
|
\VS{5} The [one] gaining victory will thus be clothed in white garments, and I
|
|
will not blot out his name from the scroll of zoe-life\fnZoe{}, and I will confess his
|
|
name before my father and before his angels.
|
|
\VS{6} The [one] having ears let\fnImperative{} him be hearing what the spirit
|
|
says to the assemblies\fnEkklhsia{}.
|
|
|
|
\VS{7} And to the angel of the assemblies\fnEkklhsia{} in Philadelphia write: These
|
|
[things] says the holy, the true, the [one] having the key [of] \David, the [one] opening and no one shuts, and shutting, and no one opens:
|
|
\VS{8} I know your works. Behold
|
|
I have given before you [an] opened door, which no one is able to shut it,
|
|
because you have [a] little ability, and you have kept my word and have not
|
|
denied my name.
|
|
\VS{9} Behold I will give [them to be] of the synagogue of \Satan,
|
|
[those] calling themselves Jews, and are not, but are false. Behold I will make
|
|
them to come and worship before your feet, and they will know that I
|
|
agape-loved you.
|
|
\VS{10} Because you kept the word of my endurance, I also
|
|
will keep you from the hour of test [about] to come upon the entire
|
|
inhabited-world, to test those dwelling upon the land.
|
|
\VS{11} I come
|
|
swiftly. Hold fast what you have, in order that no one take your crown.
|
|
\VS{12} The [one] gaining victory, I will make him [a] pillar in the temple of my
|
|
God, and he will \negd{not} go out ever [again], and I will write upon him
|
|
the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem
|
|
coming down from heaven from my God, and [I will write upon him] my new name.
|
|
\VS{13} The [one] having
|
|
ears, let\fnImperative{} him be hearing what the spirit says to the
|
|
assemblies\fnEkklhsia{}.
|
|
|
|
\VS{14} And to the angel of the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} in Laodecia, write:
|
|
These [things] says the Amen, the trustworthy and true witness,
|
|
the beginning of the creation of God:
|
|
\VS{15} I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. O that
|
|
[you were] cold or hot.
|
|
\VS{16} For thus you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I
|
|
am [about] to vomit you from my mouth.
|
|
\VS{17} Because you say that: I am rich and
|
|
are become rich and have need of nothing, and you do not know that you are
|
|
wretched and pitiable and poor and blind and naked,
|
|
\VS{18} I counsel you to
|
|
buy from me gold fired from fire in order that you be rich, and [to buy] white
|
|
garments in order that you be clothed and the shame of your nakedness not be
|
|
manifested, and to anoint your eyes with salve in order that you see.
|
|
\VS{19} As many as I philia-love I rebuke and discipline. Be being earnest,
|
|
therefore, and repent.
|
|
\VS{20} Behold I stand at the door and knock, if
|
|
anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will
|
|
dine with him and he with me.
|
|
\VS{21} The [one] gaining victory, I will give to
|
|
him to sit with me on my throne, as I have gained victory and sat with my
|
|
father on his throne.
|
|
\VS{22} The [one] having ears, let\fnImperative{} him
|
|
be hearing what the spirit says to the assemblies\fnEkklhsia{}.
