Revelation 3

1 “To the angel of the church in Sardis write: These are the words of the One who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation for being alive, yet you are dead.

1 “你要写信告诉撒狄教会的天使，有上帝的七灵又有七颗星的主说，‘我知道你的行为，你名义上活着，实际上是死的。

2 Wake up and strengthen what remains, which is about to die; for I have found your deeds incomplete in the sight of My God.

2 你要警醒！把所剩无几、奄奄一息的生命振作起来，因为我发现你的行为在我的上帝面前不纯全。

3 Remember, then, what you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know the hour when I will come upon you.

3 因此，要回想你以前所领受、所听见的教导，遵守这些教导，并且悔改。你若不警醒，我必在你意想不到的时候，像贼一样突然临到。

4 But you do have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments, and because they are worthy, they will walk with Me in white.

4 不过在撒狄，你还有几个人未曾玷污自己的衣服，他们要穿白衣与我同行，因为他们配得这样。

5 Like them, he who overcomes will be dressed in white. And I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels.

5 得胜者必同样穿上白衣，我绝不会从生命册上抹去他的名字，我必在我父和众天使面前承认他的名。

6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

6 “‘圣灵对各教会所说的话，凡有耳朵的都应当听。’

7 To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of the One who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open.

7 “你要写信告诉非拉铁非教会的天使，那位圣洁、真实、拿着大卫的钥匙、开了门无人能关、关了门无人能开的主说，

8 I know your deeds. Behold, I have placed before you an open door, which no one can shut. I know that you have only a little strength, yet you have kept My word and have not denied My name.

8 ‘我知道你的行为。你力量微小，却遵守了我的教导，没有否认我的名。看啊！我在你面前开了一扇无人能关的门。

9 As for those who belong to the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews but are liars instead, I will make them come and bow down at your feet, and they will know that I love you.

9 看啊！那些撒旦的会众自称是犹太人，其实他们不是，而是说谎的，我要使他们在你面前俯伏下拜，并知道你是我所爱的。

10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

10 因为你遵守我有关坚忍的教导，所以当将来的试炼临到普天下的人时，我必使你免受磨难。

11 I am coming soon. Hold fast to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.

11 我很快就要来了！你要持守所拥有的，免得有人夺去你的冠冕。

12 The one who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will never again leave it. Upon him I will write the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God (the new Jerusalem that comes down out of heaven from My God), and My new name.

12 我要使得胜者在我上帝的殿中作栋梁，永不离开。我要将我上帝的名和我上帝圣城的名，就是从天上我上帝那里降下来的新耶路撒冷和我自己的新名，都写在他上面。

13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

13 “‘圣灵对各教会所说的话，凡有耳朵的都应当听。’

14 To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Originator of God’s creation.

14 “你要写信告诉老底嘉教会的天使，那位真实 、诚信、无伪的见证人，就是上帝所造万物的元首说，

15 I know your deeds; you are neither cold nor hot. How I wish you were one or the other!

15 ‘我知道你的行为，你不冷也不热。我情愿你或冷或热！

16 So because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to vomit you out of My mouth!

16 你却像温水一样不冷不热，我必将你从我口中吐出去！

17 You say, ‘I am rich; I have grown wealthy and need nothing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked.

17 你说，我很富有，已经发了财，什么都不缺。你却不知道自己困苦、可怜、贫穷、瞎眼、赤身露体。

18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not exposed, and salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see.

18 我劝你向我买精炼的金子，使你真正富有。你还要向我买白衣穿在身上，好遮盖你赤身露体的羞辱。你还要向我买眼药抹眼睛，使你能看见。

19 Those I love I rebuke and discipline. Therefore be earnest and repent.

19 凡我所爱的，我都会责备、管教。因此，你要热心起来，也要悔改。

20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and dine with him, and he with Me.

20 看啊！我站在门外敲门，若有谁闻声开门，我必进去，我与他，他与我，一同坐席。

21 To the one who overcomes, I will grant the right to sit with Me on My throne, just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

21 我必让得胜者与我一同坐在我的宝座上，正如我得胜后与我父一同坐在祂的宝座上一样。

22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

22 “‘圣灵对各教会所说的话，凡有耳朵的都应当听。’”
