Revelation 3:1-6

1“To the angelG32 of the churchG1577 in 1SardisG4554 writeG1125:

He who hasG2192 2the sevenG2033 SpiritsG4151 of GodG2316 and 3the sevenG2033 starsG792, saysG3004 thisG3592: ‘4I knowG3609 your deedsG2041, that you haveG2192 a nameG3686 that you are aliveG2198, 5but you are 6deadG3498. 2WakeG1127 up, and strengthenG4741 the thingsG3062 that remainG3062, whichG3739 were aboutG3195 to dieG599; for I have not foundG2147 your deedsG2041 completedG4137 in the sightG1799 of My GodG2316. 3SoG3767 7rememberG3421 8whatG4459 you have receivedG2983 and heardG191; and keepG5083 it, and 9repentG3340. ThereforeG3767 ifG1437 you do not wakeG1127 up, 10I will comeG2240 11likeG5613 a thiefG2812, and you will not knowG1097 at 12whatG4169 hourG5610 I will comeG2240 to you. 4But you haveG2192 a fewG3641 13 14peopleG3686 in 15SardisG4554 whoG3739 have not 16soiledG3435 their garmentsG2440; and they will walkG4043 with Me 17in whiteG3022, for they are worthyG514. 5 18He who overcomesG3528 will thusG3779 be clothedG4016 in 19whiteG3022 garmentsG2440; and I will not 20eraseG1813 his nameG3686 from the bookG976 of lifeG2222, and 21I will confessG3670 his nameG3686 beforeG1799 My FatherG3962 and beforeG1799 His angelsG32. 6 22He who hasG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG4151 saysG3004 to the churchesG1577.’
