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.
Kwa munyamola ughwa lukong'ano ilya ku Sardi lemba: 'Amasio ghajula juno akalolile imhepo sila lekela lubale isa Nguluve ni nondue lekela lubale. “Nikaguile kino uvombile. Uli nulughinio ulwakuva mwumi, looli uli-mfue.
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.
Simuka nakukangasia sino sisighile, looli ghasighile padebe pifua, ulwakuva nanikasivwene imbombo sako kuuti sikwiline pa maso gha Nguluve ghwango.
3 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.
Lino, kumbukagha, ghala ghano ukupile na kupulika. Ughalekaghe na kulata. Looli nave naghusisimuka, nikwisa hene miiji, nakange nungakagule n'siki muki ghuno kwande nikwisa kulyuve.
4 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.
Looli kweghale amatavua madebe agha vaanhu ku Sardi vano navakanyasisie amenda ghavanave. vighendagha palikimo numue, vafwalile amenda amavalafu, ulwakuva vanoghile.
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.
Umwene juno ilefia ifwikua amenda amavalafu, nambe padebe nanisimia, ilitavua lya mwene kuhuma mukitabu kya vwumi, kange nikulitambula ilitavua lya mwene pavulongolo pa Nhata ghwango, na pavulongolo pavanyamola.
6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Nave ulinimbughulutu, pulikkisia u Mhepo ndavule ikusivula ing'ong'ano.”
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:
“Kwa munyamola ughwa lukong'ano ulwa ku Philadefia lemba: amasio gha jula mwimike kanga kyang'ani - juno alinifidindulilo fya Daudi, idindula nakwale kange juno idinda, idinda nakwale juno idindula.
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 didn’t deny my name.
Nikagwile kino uvombile. Lolaa, nikubikile pavulongolo palyuve ghuno ghudindwike ghuno nakwale juno idinda. Nikaguile kuuti uli ningufu ndebe, looli ulyitike ilisio lyango kange kange nukanile ilitavua lyango.
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.
Lolagha! Vooni valinyumba ja kufunyila ja setano, vala vano viiti va Yahudi kumbe navevene, pa uluo videsania. Nikuvavika vise kukufunya pavulongolo pa maghulu ghako, kange vikagula kuuti nikakughanile.
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.
Ulwakuva ugadilile ululaghilo lwango nu ligudo ulwa vupesie, nikukudimagha kange mufivalilo fyako ifya kughelua kino kikwisa mu iisi jooni, kukuvaghela vala vooni vano vikukala mu iisi.
11 I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown.
Nikwisa ng'aning'ani. Gadililagha kyongo kila kino ulinakyo ulwakuuti napangavisaghe umuunhu ughwa kutola ingela jako.
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.
Nikum'bika umwene juno ilefia kuva manda munyumba inyimike ijakufunyila ija Nguluve ghwango, kange naalyahuma kunji lusiku. Nilemba kwa mwene ilituvua lya Nguluve ghwango, ilitavua ilya likaja lya Nguluve ghango (Yerusalemu imia, lino likwika pasi kuhuma kukyanya kwa Nguluve ghwango), nilitavua lyango ilipia.
13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Umwene juno ali nimbughulutu, ghwe apulikaghe kino u Mhepo ikusivula ing'ano.'
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:
“Kwa munyamola ghwa lukong'ano lwa Laodikia lemba: 'Amasio ghajula juno Amina, juno ihuvilua nu mwolesi ghwa kyang'ani, n'temi muvupelua vwa Nguluve.
15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot.
Nikaguile kino uvombile, kuuti uve nuli n'suvusu nambe m'pio, ninoghilue kuuti usavisagha n'suvusu nambe mpio!
16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth.
Pauluo, ulwakuva uve ulimfukefu, nulimpio nambe nulinsuvusu, nikukusyetula uhume mumulomo ghwngo.
17 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;
Ulwakuva ghwiiti, “Une nili mofu, nili nukyuma kiinga, nanilonda nambe kimonga.” Looli ni kagwile kuuti uve ulimughaji, kyongo, ghwa kusukunalilua, uvugholofu, um'bofu ghwa iisi.
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.
Pulikisyagha uluvungo lwango: ghulagha kulyune isahabu jino jisukilue nu mwoto ulwakuuti uve mofu, na menda amavalafu ghano ghilangalenga ulwakuuti ghufwasiaghe juve kange ningahuvilaghe isooni isa vufula vwako na mafuta ghako paka mu maso ghako ukagula kulola.
19 As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.
Ghweni juno nimughanile, nikumulungika na pikum'bulanisia ndavule lunoghile pikukala; lino, piva ghwa kyang'ani na pikulaata.
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.
Lolagha nimile pamuliango na kuhodesia. ghweni juno ipulika ilisio lyango na kudindula umulyango, nikwisa napikwingila munyumba ja mwene, napilia ikyakulia nu mwene ghwope palikimo nune.
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.
Umwene juno ilefia, nikumpela uvwa kyang'ani pikukala pasi palikimo nune pakyanya pakitengo kyango ikya vutua, ndavule une vule nikalefie na pikukala pasi palikimo nhu Nhata ghwango pakyanya pakitengo kya mwene kya vutua.
22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.”
Umwene juno alinimbughulutu, apulikisyaghe kino u Mhepo ikusivula ing'ong'ano.”
