Revelation 3
1 "And to the angel of the church 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.
“Umuyandikila aga mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga mweiyimalila msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu va ku Salide.” “Genaga ndi geijova yula mweavi na mipungu saba ya Chapanga na ndondo saba, nigamanyili matendu gaku. Nimanyili veve uvi na ulumba wa kuvya mumi nambu chakaka ufwili!
2 Wake up, and keep the things that remain, which were about to die, for I have found no works of yours perfected before my God.
Yumuka! Ugahengayi gavyai na makakala gegasigalili gegigana kufwa, muni niwene matendu gaku gatimilifu lepi, palongolo ya Chapanga.
3 Remember therefore how you have received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If therefore you do not wake up, I will come as a thief, and you won't know what hour I will come to you.
Hinu, ukumbukayi, mawuliwu geuwuliwi na gala geuyuwini, ugayidakila na kuleka kumbudila Chapanga. Nambu ngati uyumwiki lepi yati nibwela chigafula ngati mhiji, wimanya lepi lukumbi lwenibwela kwaku.
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.
Nambu uvi na vandu vadebe kula ku Salide vevahakisi lepi nyula zavi. Venavo yati viyidakiliwa kugenda pamonga na nene vawalili nyula za msopi.
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.
Yula mweihotola yati iwalikwa nyula ya msopi ngati vene, na nene yati nihungula lepi liina laki mumahina gegayandikwi muchitabu cha wumi. Kangi yati nijova mlomo wangu palongolo ya Dadi wangu na palongolo ya vamitumu vaki va kunani kwa Chapanga kuvya mwene ndi wangu.”
6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
“Mweavi na makutu, ayuwana bwina gala Mpungu Msopi geakuvajovela misambi wa vandu vevamkusadika Kilisitu!”
7 "To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: "These are the words of the Holy One, the True One, he who has the key of David, he who opens and no one can shut, and who shuts and no one opens:
“Mumyandikila naha. Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga mweiyimalila msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu va Fidalefia.” “Wenuwu ndi ujumbi kuhuma yula Msopi na mchakaka, mweavi na ufungulu wa Daudi. Mweidindula mlyangu na kawaka mweihotola kudinda mewa mweidinda kawaka mweihotola kudindula.
8 "I know your works. Look, I have set before you an open door, which no one can shut. For you have a little power, and have kept my word, and did not deny my name.
Nigamanyili mambu gaku goha! Lola, nidindwili palongolo yaku mlyangu, avi lepi mundu mweihotola kudinda, nimanyili pamonga uvi na makakala gadebe, pamonga na ago ulikamwili lilovi langu ndi uliyidakili liina langu.
9 Look, I give of the synagogue of Satan, of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but lie; look, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
Yuwanila! Yati nikuvapeleka kwaku vandu va msambi wewilongoswa na Setani, vandu vevakujijovela kuvya Vayawudi, kumbi lepi, ndi vijova udese. Ena, yati nivapeleka kwaku na kuvakita vafugama palongolo yaku, vahotola kumanya nikuganili veve.
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.
Ndava muni veve ukamulili lilovi langu na kusindimala, nene yati nikukuyunga bwina lukumbi lula lwa mang'ahiso gegibwela pamulima poha, kuvalinga voha vevitama pamulima.
11 I am coming quickly. Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.
Kanyata nibwela kwaku! Kamulila kwa makakala ujumbi wula wa sadika yeupokili, muni mundu yeyoha akotoka kukunyaga njingwa yaku.
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.
Yula mweihotola nikumkita avyai bwina. Mapanda mu Nyumba ya Chapanga wangu, na katu yati ihuma lepi mwenumo. Mewa yati niyandika panani yaki liina la Chapanga wangu na liina la muji wa Chapanga wangu, ndi Yelusalemu mupya, muji wewihelela kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga. Mewawa yati niyandika panani yaki liina langu lamupya.”
13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
“Mweavi na makutu, ndi ayuwana bwina gala Mpungu Msopi geakuujovela msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu!”
14 "To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: "The Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Head of God's creation, says these things:
“Muyandikila naha mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga mweiyimalila msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu va ku Laodikea.” “Wenuwu ndi ujumbi wewihuma kwa yula mweikemiwa Ena, msadikika mweijova uchakaka magono goha, ndi chanzu vindu vyoha vyeawumbili Chapanga nijova aga.
15 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot.
Nigamanyili mambu gaku goha! Nimanyili kuvya veve lepi mbepu lepi motu. Mbanga yauvili chimonga chaki, mbepu amala motu.
16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth.
Hinu, ndava muni veve uvi gangavila, wisisima lepi, amala uvi motu lepi yati nikukudeka!
17 Because you say, 'I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing;' and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked;
Ndava muni, wijova, ‘Uvi na vindu vyamahele, uyenili ugana lepi chindu chochoha.’ Nambu umanyili lepi, veve mngolongondi na wigana kuhengewa lipyana na mngangu na ngalola na uvi waka.
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 put on your eyes, that you may see.
Ndava yeniyo nikujovela ugula kwangu zahabu yeyinyambiswi kwa motu uhotola kuvya na vindu vyamahele. Kangi mbanga mewa ugula nyula ya msopi, uwala na kugubika soni ya veve kuvya waka. Mewawa ugulayi mtela unyala pamihu paku uhotola kulola.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and discipline. Be zealous therefore, and repent.
Nene ndi mwenikumhakalila na kumbesa yeyoha mwenikumgana. Hinu ukangamalayi kuleka kumbudila Chapanga.
20 Look, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me.
Yuwanila! Nene niyima pamlyangu na kuhodisa. Mundu akayuwana lwami lwangu na kudindula mlyangu, yati niyingila mugati yaki na kulya chakulya pamonga nayu.
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.
Mweihotola yati nikumpela uhotola wa kutama panani ya chigoda changu cha unkosi cha magono goha, ngati nene namwene chenihotwili kutama pamonga na Dadi wangu panani ya chigoda chaki cha unkosi wa magono goha.”
22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."
“Mweavi na makutu, ga kuyuwana ndi ayuwana bwina gala Mpungu Msopi geakuujovela msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu.”
