^2:1To the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things says he who holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden lamp stands; ²I know your₁ works, and your₁  labour, and your₁ perseverance [upomonh], and how you₁ cannot bear those who are evil: and you₁ have tried those who say they are apostles, and are not, and have found them liars: ³And have borne, and have persevered, and for my name's sake have labored, and have not fainted. ⁴Nevertheless I have somewhat against you₁, because you₁ abandon your₁ foremost love. ⁵Remember therefore from where you₁ are fallen, and repent, and do the foremost works; or else I will come to you₁ suddenly, and will remove your₁ lamp stand out of its place, except you₁ repent. ⁶But this you₁ have, that you₁ hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. ⁷He who has an ear, must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches: I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God, to him who is overcoming.

^2:8And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things says the first and the last, who was dead, and is alive; ⁹I know your₁ works, and trouble, and poverty, (but you₁ are rich) and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. ¹⁰Fear none of those things which you₁ will suffer: behold, the devil will cast some of you into prison, so that you may be tried; and you shall have trouble ten days: be₁ faithful to death, and I will give you₁ a crown of life. ¹¹He who has an ear, must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches: he who is overcoming will not be hurt by the second death.

^2:12And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write; These things says he who has the sharp sword with two edges; ¹³I know your₁ works, and where you₁ dwell, even where Satan's throne is: and you₁ hold fast my name, and have not denied my faith, even in those days in which Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells. ¹⁴But I have a few things against you₁, because you₁ have there those who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication. ¹⁵So you₁ also have those who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. ¹⁶Repent; or else I will come to you₁ quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. ¹⁷He who has an ear, must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches: I will give to him who is overcoming to eat from the hidden manna, and will give him a white pebble, and a new name is written on the stone, which no one knows except he who is receiving it.

^2:18And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things says the Son of God, who has his eyes like to a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass; ¹⁹I know your₁ works, and love, and service, and faith, and your₁ patience, and your₁ works; and the last is more than the first. ²⁰But I have a few things against you₁, because you₁ allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols. ²¹And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she did not repent. ²²Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and those who commit adultery with her into great trouble, except they repent of their deeds. ²³And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he who searches the reins and hearts: and I will give to every one of you according to your works. ²⁴But I say to you, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, and who have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put on you no other burden. ²⁵But that which you have already, hold fast till I come. ²⁶And he who is overcoming and is keeping my works to the end, I will give him authority over the nations: ²⁷And he will rule them with a rod of iron; they shall be broken to shivers as the vessels of a potter: even as I received of my Father. ²⁸And I will give him the morning star. ²⁹He who has an ear, must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches.

^3:1And to the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things says he who has the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know your₁ works, that you₁ have a name that you₁ live, but are₁ dead. ²Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found your₁ works perfect before God. ³Remember therefore how you₁ have received and heard₁, and hold fast₁, and repent₁. If therefore you₁ will not watch, I will come on you₁ as a thief, and you₁ will  not know what hour I will come on you₁. ⁴You₁ have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy. ⁵he who is overcoming this one will be clothed in white garments and I will definitely not blot his name out of the book of life, but I will announce his name before my Father, and before his angels.⁶He who has an ear, must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches.

^3:14And to 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; ¹⁵I know your₁ works, that you₁ are neither cold nor hot: I would you₁ were cold or hot. ¹⁶So then because you₁ are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue you₁ out of my mouth. ¹⁷Because you₁ say, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and you₁ do not know that you₁ are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: ¹⁸I counsel you₁ to buy gold tried in the fire from me, so that you₁ may be rich; and white clothing, so that you₁ might be clothed, and so that the shame of your₁ nakedness does not appear; and anoint₁ your₁ eyes with eye salve, so that you₁ may see. ¹⁹As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. ²⁰Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hears my voice, and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me. ²¹To him who is overcoming I will grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and sit with my Father in his throne. ²²He who has an ear, must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches.
