Revelation 2
1 To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: These things says he that holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden lamps:
iphiṣasthasamite rdūtaṁ prati tvam idaṁ likha; yo dakṣiṇakareṇa sapta tārā dhārayati saptānāṁ suvarṇadīpavṛkṣāṇāṁ madhye gamanāgamane karoti ca tenedam ucyate|
2 I know thy works and [thy] labour, and thine endurance, and that thou canst not bear evil [men]; and thou hast tried them who say that themselves [are] apostles and are not, and hast found them liars;
tava kriyāḥ śramaḥ sahiṣṇutā ca mama gocarāḥ, tvaṁ duṣṭān soḍhuṁ na śaknoṣi ye ca preritā na santaḥ svān preritān vadanti tvaṁ tān parīkṣya mṛṣābhāṣiṇo vijñātavān,
3 and endurest, and hast borne for my name's sake, and hast not wearied:
aparaṁ tvaṁ titikṣāṁ vidadhāsi mama nāmārthaṁ bahu soḍhavānasi tathāpi na paryyaklāmyastadapi jānāmi|
4 but I have against thee, that thou hast left thy first love.
kiñca tava viruddhaṁ mayaitat vaktavyaṁ yat tava prathamaṁ prema tvayā vyahīyata|
5 Remember therefore whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works: but if not, I am coming to thee, and I will remove thy lamp out of its place, except thou shalt repent.
ataḥ kutaḥ patito 'si tat smṛtvā manaḥ parāvarttya pūrvvīyakriyāḥ kuru na cet tvayā manasi na parivarttite 'haṁ tūrṇam āgatya tava dīpavṛkṣaṁ svasthānād apasārayiṣyāmi|
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the works of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
tathāpi taveṣa guṇo vidyate yat nīkalāyatīyalokānāṁ yāḥ kriyā aham ṛtīye tāstvamapi ṛtīyame|
7 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him that overcomes, I will give to him to eat of the tree of life which is in the paradise of God.
yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānām ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu| yo jano jayati tasmā aham īśvarasyārāmasthajīvanataroḥ phalaṁ bhoktuṁ dāsyāmi|
8 And to the angel of the assembly in Smyrna write: These things says the first and the last, who became dead, and lived:
aparaṁ smurṇāsthasamite rdūtaṁ pratīdaṁ likha; ya ādirantaśca yo mṛtavān punarjīvitavāṁśca tenedam ucyate,
9 I know thy tribulation and thy poverty; but thou art rich; and the railing of those who say that they themselves are Jews, and are not, but a synagogue of Satan.
tava kriyāḥ kleśo dainyañca mama gocarāḥ kintu tvaṁ dhanavānasi ye ca yihūdīyā na santaḥ śayatānasya samājāḥ santi tathāpi svān yihūdīyān vadanti teṣāṁ nindāmapyahaṁ jānāmi|
10 Fear nothing [of] what thou art about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give to thee the crown of life.
tvayā yo yaḥ kleśaḥ soḍhavyastasmāt mā bhaiṣīḥ paśya śayatāno yuṣmākaṁ parīkṣārthaṁ kāṁścit kārāyāṁ nikṣepsyati daśa dināni yāvat kleśo yuṣmāsu varttiṣyate ca| tvaṁ mṛtyuparyyantaṁ viśvāsyo bhava tenāhaṁ jīvanakirīṭaṁ tubhyaṁ dāsyāmi|
11 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He that overcomes shall in no wise be injured of the second death.
yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānām ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu| yo jayati sa dvitīyamṛtyunā na hiṁsiṣyate|
12 And to the angel of the assembly in Pergamos write: These things says he that has the sharp two-edged sword:
aparaṁ pargāmasthasamite rdūtaṁ pratīdaṁ likha, yastīkṣṇaṁ dvidhāraṁ khaṅgaṁ dhārayati sa eva bhāṣate|
13 I know where thou dwellest, where the throne of Satan [is]; and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in the days in which Antipas my faithful witness [was], who was slain among you, where Satan dwells.
tava kriyā mama gocarāḥ, yatra śayatānasya siṁhāsanaṁ tatraiva tvaṁ vasasi tadapi jānāmi| tvaṁ mama nāma dhārayasi madbhakterasvīkārastvayā na kṛto mama viśvāsyasākṣiṇa āntipāḥ samaye 'pi na kṛtaḥ| sa tu yuṣmanmadhye 'ghāni yataḥ śayatānastatraiva nivasati|
14 But I have a few things against thee: that thou hast there those who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a snare before the sons of Israel, to eat [of] idol sacrifices and commit fornication.
tathāpi tava viruddhaṁ mama kiñcid vaktavyaṁ yato devaprasādādanāya paradāragamanāya cesrāyelaḥ santānānāṁ sammukha unmāthaṁ sthāpayituṁ bālāk yenāśikṣyata tasya biliyamaḥ śikṣāvalambinastava kecit janāstatra santi|
15 So thou also hast those who hold the doctrine of Nicolaitanes in like manner.
tathā nīkalāyatīyānāṁ śikṣāvalambinastava kecit janā api santi tadevāham ṛtīye|
16 Repent therefore: but if not, I come to thee quickly, and I will make war with them with the sword of my mouth.
ato hetostvaṁ manaḥ parivarttaya na cedahaṁ tvarayā tava samīpamupasthāya madvaktasthakhaṅgena taiḥ saha yotsyāmi|
17 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him that overcomes, to him will I give of the hidden manna; and I will give to him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knows but he that receives [it].
yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānām ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu| yo jano jayati tasmā ahaṁ guptamānnāṁ bhoktuṁ dāsyāmi śubhraprastaramapi tasmai dāsyāmi tatra prastare nūtanaṁ nāma likhitaṁ tacca grahītāraṁ vinā nānyena kenāpyavagamyate|
18 And to the angel of the assembly in Thyatira write: These things says the Son of God, he that has his eyes as a flame of fire, and his feet [are] like fine brass:
aparaṁ thuyātīrāsthasamite rdūtaṁ pratīdaṁ likha| yasya locane vahniśikhāsadṛśe caraṇau ca supittalasaṅkāśau sa īśvaraputro bhāṣate,
19 I know thy works, and love, and faith, and service, and thine endurance, and thy last works [to be] more than the first.
tava kriyāḥ prema viśvāsaḥ paricaryyā sahiṣṇutā ca mama gocarāḥ, tava prathamakriyābhyaḥ śeṣakriyāḥ śreṣṭhāstadapi jānāmi|
20 But I have against thee that thou permittest the woman Jezebel, she who calls herself prophetess, and she teaches and leads astray my servants to commit fornication and eat of idol sacrifices.
tathāpi tava viruddhaṁ mayā kiñcid vaktavyaṁ yato yā īṣebalnāmikā yoṣit svāṁ bhaviṣyadvādinīṁ manyate veśyāgamanāya devaprasādāśanāya ca mama dāsān śikṣayati bhrāmayati ca sā tvayā na nivāryyate|
21 And I gave her time that she should repent, and she will not repent of her fornication.
ahaṁ manaḥparivarttanāya tasyai samayaṁ dattavān kintu sā svīyaveśyākriyāto manaḥparivarttayituṁ nābhilaṣati|
22 Behold, I cast her into a bed, and those that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of her works,
paśyāhaṁ tāṁ śayyāyāṁ nikṣepsyāmi, ye tayā sārddhaṁ vyabhicāraṁ kurvvanti te yadi svakriyābhyo manāṁsi na parāvarttayanti tarhi tānapi mahākleśe nikṣepsyāmi
23 and her children will I kill with death; and all the assemblies shall know that I am he that searches [the] reins and [the] hearts; and I will give to you each according to your works.
tasyāḥ santānāṁśca mṛtyunā haniṣyāmi| tenāham antaḥkaraṇānāṁ manasāñcānusandhānakārī yuṣmākamekaikasmai ca svakriyāṇāṁ phalaṁ mayā dātavyamiti sarvvāḥ samitayo jñāsyanti|
24 But to you I say, the rest who [are] in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I do not cast upon you any other burden;
aparam avaśiṣṭān thuyātīrasthalokān arthato yāvantastāṁ śikṣāṁ na dhārayanti ye ca kaiścit śayatānasya gambhīrārthā ucyante tān ye nāvagatavantastānahaṁ vadāmi yuṣmāsu kamapyaparaṁ bhāraṁ nāropayiṣyāmi;
25 but what ye have hold fast till I shall come.
kintu yad yuṣmākaṁ vidyate tat mamāgamanaṁ yāvad dhārayata|
26 And he that overcomes, and he that keeps unto the end my works, to him will I give authority over the nations,
yo jano jayati śeṣaparyyantaṁ mama kriyāḥ pālayati ca tasmā aham anyajātīyānām ādhipatyaṁ dāsyāmi;
27 and he shall shepherd them with an iron rod; as vessels of pottery are they broken in pieces, as I also have received from my Father;
pitṛto mayā yadvat kartṛtvaṁ labdhaṁ tadvat so 'pi lauhadaṇḍena tān cārayiṣyati tena mṛdbhājanānīva te cūrṇā bhaviṣyanti|
28 and I will give to him the morning star.
aparam ahaṁ tasmai prabhātīyatārām api dāsyāmi|
29 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
yasya śrotraṁ vidyate sa samitīḥ pratyucyamānām ātmanaḥ kathāṁ śṛṇotu|
