1 aparaṁ sārddisthasamite rdūtaṁ pratīdaṁ likha, yo jana īśvarasya saptātmanaḥ sapta tārāśca dhārayati sa eva bhāṣate, tava kriyā mama gocarāḥ, tvaṁ jīvadākhyo 'si tathāpi mṛto 'si tadapi jānāmi|
“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.
2 prabuddho bhava, avaśiṣṭaṁ yadyat mṛtakalpaṁ tadapi sabalīkuru yata īśvarasya sākṣāt tava karmmāṇi na siddhānīti pramāṇaṁ mayā prāptaṁ|
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.
3 ataḥ kīdṛśīṁ śikṣāṁ labdhavān śrutavāścāsi tat smaran tāṁ pālaya svamanaḥ parivarttaya ca| cet prabuddho na bhavestarhyahaṁ stena iva tava samīpam upasthāsyāmi kiñca kasmin daṇḍe upasthāsyāmi tanna jñāsyasi|
Remember therefore how you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If therefore you won’t watch, I will come as a thief, and you won’t know what hour I will come upon you.
4 tathāpi yaiḥ svavāsāṁsi na kalaṅkitāni tādṛśāḥ katipayalokāḥ sārddinagare 'pi tava vidyante te śubhraparicchadai rmama saṅge gamanāgamane kariṣyanti yataste yogyāḥ|
Nevertheless you have a few names in Sardis that didn’t defile their garments. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.
5 yo jano jayati sa śubhraparicchadaṁ paridhāpayiṣyante, ahañca jīvanagranthāt tasya nāma nāntardhāpayiṣyāmi kintu matpituḥ sākṣāt tasya dūtānāṁ sākṣācca tasya nāma svīkariṣyāmi|
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.
6 yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānām ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu|
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
7 aparañca philādilphiyāsthasamite rdūtaṁ pratīdaṁ likha, yaḥ pavitraḥ satyamayaścāsti dāyūdaḥ kuñjikāṁ dhārayati ca yena mocite 'paraḥ ko'pi na ruṇaddhi ruddhe cāparaḥ ko'pi na mocayati sa eva bhāṣate|
“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:
8 tava kriyā mama gocarāḥ paśya tava samīpe 'haṁ muktaṁ dvāraṁ sthāpitavān tat kenāpi roddhuṁ na śakyate yatastavālpaṁ balamāste tathāpi tvaṁ mama vākyaṁ pālitavān mama nāmno 'svīkāraṁ na kṛtavāṁśca|
“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 didn’t deny my name.
9 paśya yihūdīyā na santo ye mṛṣāvādinaḥ svān yihūdīyān vadanti teṣāṁ śayatānasamājīyānāṁ kāṁścid aham āneṣyāmi paśya te madājñāta āgatya tava caraṇayoḥ praṇaṁsyanti tvañca mama priyo 'sīti jñāsyanti|
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.
10 tvaṁ mama sahiṣṇutāsūcakaṁ vākyaṁ rakṣitavānasi tatkāraṇāt pṛthivīnivāsināṁ parīkṣārthaṁ kṛtsnaṁ jagad yenāgāmiparīkṣādinenākramiṣyate tasmād ahamapi tvāṁ rakṣiṣyāmi|
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.
11 paśya mayā śīghram āgantavyaṁ tava yadasti tat dhāraya ko 'pi tava kirīṭaṁ nāpaharatu|
I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.
12 yo jano jayati tamahaṁ madīyeśvarasya mandire stambhaṁ kṛtvā sthāpayisyāmi sa puna rna nirgamiṣyati| aparañca tasmin madīyeśvarasya nāma madīyeśvarasya puryyā api nāma arthato yā navīnā yirūśānam purī svargāt madīyeśvarasya samīpād avarokṣyati tasyā nāma mamāpi nūtanaṁ nāma lekhiṣyāmi|
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.
13 yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānām ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu|
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
14 aparañca lāyadikeyāsthasamite rdūtaṁ pratīdaṁ likha, ya āmen arthato viśvāsyaḥ satyamayaśca sākṣī, īśvarasya sṛṣṭerādiścāsti sa eva bhāṣate|
“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:
15 tava kriyā mama gocarāḥ tvaṁ śīto nāsi tapto 'pi nāsīti jānāmi|
“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot.
16 tava śītatvaṁ taptatvaṁ vā varaṁ bhavet, śīto na bhūtvā tapto 'pi na bhūtvā tvamevambhūtaḥ kadūṣṇo 'si tatkāraṇād ahaṁ svamukhāt tvām udvamiṣyāmi|
So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth.
17 ahaṁ dhanī samṛddhaścāsmi mama kasyāpyabhāvo na bhavatīti tvaṁ vadasi kintu tvameva duḥkhārtto durgato daridro 'ndho nagnaścāsi tat tvayā nāvagamyate|
Because you say, ‘I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing,’ and don’t know that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked;
18 tvaṁ yad dhanī bhavestadarthaṁ matto vahnau tāpitaṁ suvarṇaṁ krīṇīhi nagnatvāt tava lajjā yanna prakāśeta tadarthaṁ paridhānāya mattaḥ śubhravāsāṁsi krīṇīhi yacca tava dṛṣṭiḥ prasannā bhavet tadarthaṁ cakṣurlepanāyāñjanaṁ mattaḥ krīṇīhīti mama mantraṇā|
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.
19 yeṣvahaṁ prīye tān sarvvān bhartsayāmi śāsmi ca, atastvam udyamaṁ vidhāya manaḥ parivarttaya|
As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 paśyāhaṁ dvāri tiṣṭhan tad āhanmi yadi kaścit mama ravaṁ śrutvā dvāraṁ mocayati tarhyahaṁ tasya sannidhiṁ praviśya tena sārddhaṁ bhokṣye so 'pi mayā sārddhaṁ bhokṣyate|
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.
21 aparamahaṁ yathā jitavān mama pitrā ca saha tasya siṁhāsana upaviṣṭaścāsmi, tathā yo jano jayati tamahaṁ mayā sārddhaṁ matsiṁhāsana upaveśayiṣyāmi|
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.
22 yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānam ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu|
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.”
