CHAPTER 3 :1 And unto the angel <G 0032> of the church <G 1577>
in Sardis <G 4554> write <G 1125>; These <G 3592> things saith
<G 3004> he that hath <G 2192> the seven <G 2033> Spirits <G
4151> of God <G 2316>, and the seven <G 2033> stars <G 0792>; I
know <G 1492> thy works <G 2041>, that thou hast <G 2192> a name
<G 3686> that thou livest <G 2198>, and art <G 1488> dead <G
3498>.
:2 Be watchful <G 1127>, and strengthen <G 4741> the things
which remain <G 3062>, that are ready <G 3195> to die <G 0599>:
for I have not found <G 2147> thy works <G 2041> perfect <G
4137> before <G 1799> God <G 2316>.
:3 Remember <G 3421> therefore <G 3767> how <G 4459> thou hast
received <G 2983> and heard <G 0191>, and hold <G 5083> fast,
and repent <G 3340>. If <G 1437> therefore <G 3767> thou shalt
not watch <G 1127>, I will come <G 2240> on <G 1909> thee as a
thief <G 2812>, and thou shalt not know <G 1097> what <G 4169>
hour <G 5610> I will come <G 2240> upon thee.
:4 Thou hast <G 2192> a few <G 3641> names <G 3686> even <G
2532> in Sardis <G 4554> which <G 3739> have not defiled <G
3435> their garments <G 2440>; and they shall walk <G 4043> with
me in white <G 3022>: for they are worthy <G 0514>.
:5 He that overcometh <G 3528>, the same <G 3778> shall be
clothed <G 4016> in white <G 3022> raiment <G 2440>; and I will
not blot <G 1813> out his name <G 3686> out of the book <G 0976>
of life <G 2222>, but I will confess <G 1843> his name <G 3686>
before <G 1799> my Father <G 3962>, and before <G 1799> his
angels <G 0032>.
:6 He that hath <G 2192> an ear <G 3775>, let him hear <G 0191>
what <G 5101> the Spirit <G 4151> saith <G 3004> unto the
churches <G 1577>.
:7 And to the angel <G 0032> of the church <G 1577> in
Philadelphia <G 5359> write <G 1125>; These <G 3592> things
saith <G 3004> he that is holy <G 0040>, he that is true <G
0228>, he that hath <G 2192> the key <G 2807> of David <G 1138>,
he that openeth <G 0455>, and no <G 3762> man <G 3762> shutteth
<G 2808>; and shutteth <G 2808>, and no <G 3762> man <G 3762>
openeth <G 0455>;
:8 I know <G 1492> thy works <G 2041>: behold <G 2400>, I have
set <G 1325> before <G 1799> thee an open <G 0455> door <G 2374>,
and no <G 3762> man <G 3762> can <G 1410> shut <G 2808> it: for
thou hast <G 2192> a little <G 3398> strength <G 1411>, and hast
kept <G 5083> my word <G 3056>, and hast not denied <G 0720> my
name <G 3686>.
:9 Behold <G 2400>, I will make <G 1325> them of the synagogue
<G 4864> of Satan <G 4567>, which <G 3588> say <G 3004> they are
Jews <G 2453>, and are not, but do lie <G 5574>; behold <G 2400>,
I will make <G 4160> them to come <G 2240> and worship <G 4352>
before <G 1799> thy feet <G 4228>, and to know <G 1097> that I
have loved <G 0025> thee.
:10 Because <G 3754> thou hast kept <G 5083> the word <G 3056>
of my patience <G 5281>, I also <G 2504> will keep <G 5083> thee
from the hour <G 5610> of temptation <G 3986>, which <G 3588>
shall come <G 2064> upon all <G 3650> the world <G 3625>, to try
<G 3985> them that dwell <G 2730> upon the earth <G 1093>.
:11 Behold <G 2400>, I come <G 2064> quickly <G 5035>: hold <G
2902> that fast which <G 3739> thou hast <G 2192>, that no <G
3367> man <G 3367> take <G 2983> thy crown <G 4735>.
:12 Him that overcometh <G 3528> will I make <G 4160> a pillar
<G 4769> in the temple <G 3485> of my God <G 2316>, and he shall
go <G 1831> no <G 3364> more <G 2089> out: and I will write <G
1125> upon him the name <G 3686> of my God <G 2316>, and the
name <G 3686> of the city <G 4172> of my God <G 2316>, [which <G
3588> is] new <G 2537> Jerusalem <G 2419>, which <G 3588> cometh
<G 2597> down <G 2597> out of heaven <G 3772> from my God <G
2316>: and [I will write upon him] my new <G 2537> name <G 3686>.
:13 He that hath <G 2192> an ear <G 3775>, let him hear <G 0191>
what <G 5101> the Spirit <G 4151> saith <G 3004> unto the
churches <G 1577>.
:14 And unto the angel <G 0032> of the church <G 1577> of the
Laodiceans <G 2994> write <G 1125>; These <G 3592> things saith
<G 3004> the Amen <G 0281>, the faithful <G 4103> and true <G
0228> witness <G 3144>, the beginning <G 0746> of the creation
<G 2937> of God <G 2316>;
:15 I know <G 1492> thy works <G 2041>, that thou art <G 1488>
neither <G 3777> cold <G 5593> nor <G 3777> hot <G 2200>: I
would <G 3785> thou wert <G 1498> cold <G 5593> or <G 2228> hot
<G 2200>.
:16 So <G 3779> then because <G 3754> thou art <G 1488> lukewarm
<G 5513>, and neither <G 3777> cold <G 5593> nor <G 3777> hot <G
2200>, I will <G 3195> spue <G 1692> thee out of my mouth <G
4750>.
:17 Because <G 3754> thou sayest <G 3004>, I am <G 1510> rich <G
4145>, and increased <G 4147> with goods <G 4147>, and have <G
2192> need <G 5532> of nothing <G 3762>; and knowest <G 1492>
not that thou art <G 1488> wretched <G 5005>, and miserable <G
1652>, and poor <G 4434>, and blind <G 5185>, and naked <G 1131>:
:18 I counsel <G 4823> thee to buy <G 0059> of me gold <G 5553>
tried <G 4448> in the fire <G 4442>, that thou mayest be rich <G
4147>; and white <G 3022> raiment <G 2440>, that thou mayest be
clothed <G 4016>, and [that] the shame <G 0152> of thy nakedness
<G 1132> do not appear <G 5319>; and anoint <G 1472> thine <G
4675> eyes <G 3788> with eyesalve <G 2854>, that thou mayest see
<G 0991>.
:19 As many <G 3745> as I love <G 5368>, I rebuke <G 1651> and
chasten <G 3811>: be zealous <G 2206> therefore <G 3767>, and
repent <G 3340>.
:20 Behold <G 2400>, I stand <G 2476> at <G 1909> the door <G
2374>, and knock <G 2925>: if <G 1437> any <G 5100> man hear <G
0191> my voice <G 5456>, and open <G 0455> the door <G 2374>, I
will come <G 1525> in to him, and will sup <G 1172> with him,
and he with me.
:21 To him that overcometh <G 3528> will I grant <G 1325> to sit
<G 2523> with me in my throne <G 2362>, even <G 2504> as I also
<G 2504> overcame <G 3528>, and am set <G 2523> down <G 2523>
with my Father <G 3962> in his throne <G 2362>.
:22 He that hath <G 2192> an ear <G 3775>, let him hear <G 0191>
what <G 5101> the Spirit <G 4151> saith <G 3004> unto the
churches <G 1577>.
