Revelation 3
1 “And to the angel of the assembly in Sardis write: “He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars says these things: “I know your works, that you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead.
Et Angelo Ecclesiæ Sardis scribe: Hæc dicit qui habet septem Spiritus Dei, et septem stellas: Scio opera tua, quia nomen habes quod vivas, et mortuus es.
2 Wake up and strengthen the things that remain, which you were about to throw away, for I have found no works of yours perfected before my God.
Esto vigilans, et confirma cetera, quæ moritura erant. Non enim invenio opera tua plena coram Deo meo.
3 Remember therefore how you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If therefore you will not watch, I will come as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you.
In mente ergo habe qualiter acceperis, et audieris, et serva, et pœnitentiam age. Si ergo non vigilaveris, veniam ad te tamquam fur, et nescies qua hora veniam ad te.
4 Nevertheless you have a few names in Sardis that did not defile their garments. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.
Sed habes pauca nomina in Sardis, qui non inquinaverunt vestimenta sua: et ambulabunt mecum in albis, quia digni sunt.
5 He who overcomes will be arrayed in white garments, and I will in no way blot his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
Qui vicerit, sic vestietur vestimentis albis, et non delebo nomen eius de Libro vitæ, et confitebor nomen eius coram Patre meo, et coram angelis eius.
6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Qui habet aurem, audiat quid Spiritus dicat Ecclesiis.
7 “To the angel of the assembly in Philadelphia write: “He who is holy, he who is true, he who has the key of David, he who opens and no one can shut, and who shuts and no one opens, says these things:
Et Angelo Philadelphiæ ecclesiæ scribe: Hæc dicit Sanctus et Verus, qui habet clavem David: qui aperit, et nemo claudit: claudit, et nemo aperit:
8 “I know your works (behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one can shut), that you have a little power, and kept my word, and did not deny my name.
Scio opera tua. Ecce dedi coram te ostium apertum, quod nemo potest claudere: quia modicam habes virtutem, et servasti verbum meum, et non negasti nomen meum.
9 Behold, I make some of the synagogue of Satan, of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but lie—behold, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
Ecce dabo de synagoga satanæ, qui dicunt se Iudæos esse, et non sunt, sed mentiuntur: Ecce faciam illos ut veniant, et adorent ante pedes tuos: et scient quia ego dilexi te
10 Because you kept my command to endure, I also will keep you from the hour of testing which is to come on the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
quoniam servasti verbum patientiæ meæ, et ego servabo te ab hora tentationis, quæ ventura est in orbem universum tentare habitantes in terra.
11 I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.
Ecce venio cito: tene quod habes, ut nemo accipiat coronam tuam.
12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will go out from there no more. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and my own new name.
Qui vicerit, faciam illum columnam in templo Dei mei, et foras non egredietur amplius: et scribam super eum nomen Dei mei, et nomen civitatis Dei mei novæ Ierusalem, quæ descendit de cælo a Deo meo, et nomen meum novum.
13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Qui habet aurem, audiat quid Spiritus dicat Ecclesiis.
14 “To the angel of the assembly in Laodicea write: “The Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of God’s creation, says these things:
Et Angelo Laodiciæ ecclesiæ scribe: Hæc dicit Amen, testis fidelis, et verus, qui est principium creaturæ Dei.
15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot.
Scio opera tua: quia neque frigidus es, neque calidus: utinam frigidus esses, aut calidus:
16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth.
sed quia tepidus es, et nec frigidus, nec calidus, incipiam te evomere ex ore meo.
17 Because you say, ‘I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing,’ and do not know that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked;
quia dicis: quod dives sum, et locupletatus, et nullius egeo: et nescis quia tu es miser, et miserabilis, et pauper, et cæcus, et nudus.
18 I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may become rich; and white garments, that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see.
Suadeo tibi emere a me aurum ignitum probatum ut locuples fias, et vestimentis albis induaris, et non appareat confusio nuditatis tuæ, et collyrio inunge oculos tuos ut videas.
19 As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.
Ego quos amo, arguo, et castigo. Æmulare ergo, et pœnitentiam age.
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with me.
Ecce sto ad ostium, et pulso: siquis audierit vocem meam, et aperuerit mihi ianuam, intrabo ad illum, et cœnabo cum illo, et ipse mecum.
21 He who overcomes, I will give to him to sit down with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.
Qui vicerit, dabo ei sedere mecum in throno meo: sicut et ego vici, et sedi cum patre meo in throno eius.
22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.”
Qui habet aurem, audiat quid Spiritus dicat Ecclesiis.
