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. 2 Wake up and strengthen the things that remain, which you were about to throw away,3:2 NU & TR read "which were about to die" instead of "which you were about to throw away". for I have found no works of yours perfected before my God. 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. 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. 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. 6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
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:
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. 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. 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. 11 I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown. 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. 13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
14 "To the angel of the assembly in Laodicea write:
"The Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning 3:14 or, Source, or Head of God’s creation, says these things:
15 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot. 16 So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth. 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; 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. 19 As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent. 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. 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. 22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies."

1 "Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hāhi i Harariha:
"Ko ngā kupu āna, kei a ia nei ngā wairua e whitu o te Atua, me ngā whetū e whitu. Ka mātau ahau ki āu mahi, nā, he ingoa tōu, e ora ana koe, heoi, he tūpāpaku anō koe. 2 Kia mataara, whakaūkia ngā mea e toe nei, ka tata nei te mate; kāhore hoki ahau i kite i āu mahi kia tino rite ki te aroaro o tōku Atua. 3 Kia mahara rā ki te rironga o ngā mea i a koe, ki āu i rongo ai, ā, puritia, rīpenetā hoki. Nā, ki te kore koe e mataara, ka tae atu ahau ki a koe, ānō he tāhae; e kore hoki koe e mātau ki te hāora e tae atu ai ahau ki a koe.
4 "Tēnā anō kei a koe ētahi ingoa ouou nei i Harariha; kāhore nei i poke ō rātou kākahu. Ka hāereere tahi ēnā me ahau, he mā ngā kākahu; nō te mea he pai rātou. 5 Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitōria, ka whakakākahuria ia ki te kākahu mā; e kore anō hoki e ūkuia e ahau tōna ingoa i te pukapuka o te ora, ā, ka whakaaetia e ahau tōna ingoa ki te aroaro o tōku Matua, ki te aroaro anō hoki o āna anahera. 6 Ko te tangata he taringa tōna, kia rongo ia ki tā te Wairua e mea nei ki ngā hāhi."

"Ko ngā kupu ēnei a te tapu, a te pono, kei a ia nei te kī o Rāwiri, ko ia hei whakapuare, ā, kāhore tētahi hei tūtaki; māna hoki e tūtaki, ā, kāhore tētahi hei whakapuare. 8 E mātau ana ahau ki āu mahi. Nā, kua hoatu e ahau ki tōu aroaro he tatau puare, e kore nei e taea te tūtaki e tētahi.

11 "Ka hohoro tāku haere atu; kia mau ki tāu, kei tangohia tōu karauna e tētahi. 12 Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitōria, māku ia e mea hei pou i roto i te whare o tōku Atua, ā, e kore ia e haere atu i konā ki waho ā muri atu; māku hoki e tuhituhi ki runga ki a ia te ingoa o tōku Atua, te ingoa hoki o te pā o tōku Atua, o Hiruhārama hou, ka heke iho nei i te rangi i tōku Atua, me tōku ingoa hou anō hoki. 13 Ko te tangata he taringa tōna, kia rongo ia ki tā te Wairua e mea nei ki ngā hāhi."

14 "Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hāhi i Raorikia:
"Ko ngā kupu ēnei a te Āmine, a te kaiwhakaatu pono, tika, a te tīmatanga o tā te Atua hanganga: 15 E mātau ana ahau ki āu mahi, ehara koe i te mātao, ehara koe i te wera. Ka pai ahau me i mātao koe, me i wera rānei. 16 Heoi, i te mea he mahanahana kau koe, ehara i te mātao, ehara i te wera, ka ruakina atu koe e ahau i roto i tōku māngai. 17 Nō te mea e kī ana koe, ‘Kua whai taonga ahau, kua tini āku rawa, kāhore hoki tētahi mea e matea ana e ahau.’ Kāhore hoki e mātau he waikorohuhū noa iho koe, he hē noa iho, he rawakore, he matapō, he mea kākahukore. 18 Ko tāku kupu tēnei ki a koe, kia hokona e koe i ahau he kōura kua oti te tahu ki te ahi, kia whai rawa ai koe; he kākahu mā hoki, hei kākahu ki a koe, kia kaua ai e kitea te whakamā o tōu tūnga kautanga; he rongoā hoki hei pani ki ōu kanohi, kia kite ai koe.
19 "Ko āku e aroha nei, ka rīria e ahau, ka whiua; nā, kia ngākau nui koe, rīpenetā hoki. 20 Nā, tēnei ahau te tū nei i te tatau, te pātukituki nei; ki te whakarongo tētahi ki tōku reo, ā, ka uaki i te tatau, ka tomo atu ahau ki a ia, hei hoa kai mōna, ko ia hoki hei hoa kai mōku.
21 "Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitōria, ka hoatu e ahau ki a ia kia noho ki tōku taha ki runga ki tōku torōna, pēnei me ahau i ahau nei te wikitōria, kua noho ki te taha o tōku Matua i runga i tōna torōna. 22 Ko te tangata he taringa tōna, kia rongo ia ki tā te Wairua e mea nei ki ngā hāhi."
