And
unto the angel of the church in Sardis
write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven
stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name
that thou livest, and art dead. |
2 |
Be
watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for
I have not found thy works
perfect before God. |
3 |
Remember
therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore
thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief,
and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. |
4 |
Thou
hast a few names even
in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me
in white: for they are worthy. |
5 |
He
that overcometh,
the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name
out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before
his angels. |
6 |
He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
7 |
And
to the angel of the church in Philadelphia
write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the
key of David, he that
openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
|
8 |
I
know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door,
and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength,
and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. |
9 |
Behold,
I will make them of the synagogue
of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make
them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
|
10 |
Because
thou hast kept the
word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which
shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. |
11 |
Behold,
I come quickly: hold
that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. |
12 |
Him
that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple
of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name
of my God, and the name of the city
of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God:
and I will write upon him my new
name. |
13 |
He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
14 |
And
unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans
write; These things saith the Amen,
the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; |
15 |
I
know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or
hot. |
16 |
So
then because thou art lukewarm,
and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. |
17 |
Because
thou sayest, I am rich,
and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou
art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: |
18 |
I
counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich;
and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness
do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. |
19 |
As
many as I love, I rebuke and chasten:
be zealous therefore, and repent.
|
20 |
Behold,
I stand at the door, and knock:
if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and
will sup with him, and he with me. |
21 |
To
him that overcometh will I grant to sit
with me in my throne, even as I also overcame,
and am set down with my Father in his throne. |
22 |
He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
