Uruyan Yuhana 3
1 “Udu kiti nnan kadura Kutelle kutyi nliran in Sardisu: 'Tigbulang nlenge na amere min ti Ruhu kuzor nin niyini kuzor nyiru ile imon na usu udin nfo figiri uu fe dinin nlai, bara nani fe unan kulari.
And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things says he that has the seven Spirits (pneuma) of God, and the seven stars; I know your works, that you have a name that you live, and are dead.
2 Fita ukpin agang kiti nile imon na ilawa, idaduru ukuu, bara na nyene katwa fe kulun nanya nyenju kutelle nighe ba.
Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found your works perfect before God.
3 Bara nan lizino, ile imon na usere uminin lanza. Dofino inin, udiu kutyin. Meng ba dak nafo ukiri na uba yinnu kubi ko na nba dak kitife ba.
Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore you shall not watch, I will come on you as a thief, and you shall not know what hour I will come upon you.
4 Ama tisa namong duk cinglin nan nya Sardisu alenge na ita imon mine indinong ba. Inung ba cinu nan mi, nin kuyok nimon iboo, bara idi dert.
You have 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 Ulenge na ase unasara iba shonghe kulutuk kuboo, tutun na mba wesu lisa mye nanya kaffa nlai ba, mba bellu lisa mye nbun ncif nighe nin nbun nanan kadura mye.
He that overcomes, 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 Andi udinin natuf, lanza ile imon na uruhu din bellu nilarin nliran.”
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit (pneuma) says unto the churches.
7 Udu kiti nnan kadura in Filidelfiya, Tigbulang nlenge na adi lau nin kidegen, ame min imon npunu kitin Dauda, asa apuno, na umon wasa atursu ba, asa a tursu na umonn wasa apuno ba.
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things says he that is holy, he that is true, he that has the key of David, he that opens, and no man shuts; and shuts, and no man opens;
8 Meng yiru imon ile na usu, yene, ubunfe kibulun duku ka na upuno, na umon wasa atursu ba, nyiru likara fe di baat, nin nani udin dortu tigbulang nighe, tutun na uta amusu lisa nighe ba.
I know your works: behold, I have set before you an open door, and no man can shut it: for you have a little strength, and have kept my word, (logos) and have not denied my name.
9 Su ucaa! Alenge na idi anan kutyi nlira shetan, alenge na idin su inug a Yahudawari, ana nanere ba-idin su kinuwari nani, nba ti nani ida tumun nbun nabunu fe, iba da yinnu au meng dinin su fe.
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 your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
10 Tunda na una ceo uduka nighe, utere kibinai nin hankuri, mba minfi kubi kongo na iba dumunfi, na ku ba dak vat inye, iba dumunu alenge na isosin nan nyya inye.
Because you have kept the word (logos) of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Meng din cinu deddei. Minno ile imon na udumun gangang bara na umong wa bullu litapa fe ba.
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which you have, that no man take your crown.
12 Meng ba ti ulenge na ase unasara aso litino nanya kilari nliran Kutelle, na aba nuzu nanye ba, nba nyertin ghe lisa Kutelle nighe, lisa kipin Kutelle (Urushalima upese ule na utolo unuzu kitene kani kiti Kutelle), nin lisa lipese nighe.
Him that overcomes 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 comes down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
13 Ame ulenge na adumun natuf, na alanza ile unon na Uruhu din belle niliran nlirag.'
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit (pneuma) says unto the churches.
14 “Nyerte Udu kiti nanan kadura kilari nliran nanya in Lawudikiya: 'Tigbulang uso nani, iyizi nba in kidegen udya nanya makeke Kutelle.
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 Meng yiru ile imon na udin su, nafe di cancam ba, ana udin npiu ba, ndi nyenju nafo uwadi cancam sa npiu!
I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot: I would you were cold or hot.
16 Nani, bara na udi bidibidi-na udi cancam ba ana udin piu ba-Meng ba tuffunfi nanya nnuu nighe.
So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth.
17 Bara fe nworo, “Meng dimun nimon nacara, na ndira imomon ba.” Anafe yiru fere di ba fere di hem, unan kunekune, ukimon, uduu, nin lenge na adi fisere.
Because you say, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and know not that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 Lanza ushawara nighe: Sere azurfa kiti nighe, alle na ina dumun anin kiti nlah, bara unan so unan nimon nacara, nin njinjin, nin kulutuk kulau, ishon bara iwa yenefi fisere ulanza ncin, a ukan uti niyizife unan yene kiti.
I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that you may be rich; and white raiment, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness do not appear; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.
19 Vat nlenge na ndinin su mye, asa ntaghe libau ndursuzoghe inda na aba su lisosin, bara nani, ta dedei udiu kutyin.
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Yene, Meng yisin kibulun ndi fowe, asa umon nlanza liwui nighe apuno kibulughe, Meng ba dak nan nya kilari mye, nba lii umonli nighe nighe, amye nin nmi.
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 Ulenge na ase unasara, Meng ba yinin ghe aso nin mye, kuteet tigo nighe, nafo na Meng nasu unasara nmini sosin nin ncif nighe kuteet tigoo mye.
To him that overcomes 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 Andi udinin natuf, lanza ile imon na uruhu din bellu nilari nlira.”
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit (pneuma) says unto the churches.
