1AndG2532 unto the angelG3588G32 of the AssemblyG3588G1577 inG1722 SardisG4554 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 he that hathG3588G2192 theG3588G4151 sevenG2033 SpiritsG3588G4151 of GodG3588G2316, andG2532 theG3588G792 sevenG2033 starsG3588G792; I knowG1492 thyG4771 worksG3588G2041, thatG3754 thou hastG2192 a nameG3588G3686 thatG3754 thou livestG2198, andG2532 artG1510 deadG3498. 2BeG1096 watchfulG1127, andG2532 strengthenG4741 the things which remainG3062, thatG3739 are ready toG3195 dieG599: forG1063 I haveG2147 notG3756 foundG2147 thyG4771 worksG3588G2041 perfectG4137 beforeG1799 GodG3588G2316. 3RememberG3421 thereforeG3767 howG4459 thou hast receivedG2983 andG2532 heardG191, andG2532 hold fastG5083, andG2532 repentG3340. IfG1437 thereforeG3767 thou shaltG1127 notG3361 watchG1127, I will comeG2240 onG1909 theeG4771 asG5613 a thiefG2812, andG2532 thou shalt notG3756 knowG1097 whatG4169 hourG5610 I will comeG2240 uponG1909 theeG4771. 4Thou hastG2192 a fewG3641 namesG3686 evenG2532 inG1722 SardisG4554 whichG3739 haveG3435 notG3756 defiledG3435 theirG846 garmentsG3588G2440; andG2532 they shall walkG4043 withG3326 meG1473 inG1722 whiteG3022: forG3754 they areG1510 worthyG514. 5He that overcomethG3528, the sameG3778 shall be clothedG4016 inG1722 whiteG3022 raimentG2440; andG2532 I willG1813 notG3756 blot outG1813 hisG846 nameG3588G3686 out ofG1537 the bookG3588G976 of lifeG3588G2222, butG2532 I will confessG1843 hisG846 nameG3588G3686 beforeG1799 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962, andG2532 beforeG1799 hisG846 angelsG3588G32. 6He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG3588G4151 saithG3004 unto the AssembliesG3588G1577.
7AndG2532 to the angelG3588G32 of the AssemblyG3588G1577 inG1722 PhiladelphiaG5359 writeG1125; These thingsG3592 saithG3004 he that is holyG3588G40, he that is trueG3588G228, he that hathG3588G2192 the keyG3588G2807 of DavidG3588G1138, he that openethG3588G455, andG2532 no manG3762 shuttethG2808; andG2532 shuttethG2808, andG2532 no manG3762 openethG455; 8I knowG1492 thyG4771 worksG3588G2041: beholdG3708, I have setG1325 beforeG1799 theeG4771 anG2374 openG455 doorG2374, andG2532 no manG3762 canG1410 shutG2808 itG846: forG3754 thou hastG2192 a littleG3398 strengthG1411, andG2532 hast keptG5083 myG1473 wordG3588G3056, andG2532 hastG720 notG3756 deniedG720 myG1473 nameG3588G3686. 9BeholdG3708, I will makeG1325 themG3004 ofG1537 the synagogueG3588G4864 of SatanG3588G4567, which sayG3004 theyG1438 areG1510 JewsG2453, andG2532 areG1510 notG3756, butG235 do lieG5574; beholdG3708, I will makeG4160 themG846 toG2443 comeG2240 andG2532 worshipG4352 beforeG1799 thyG4771 feetG3588G4228, andG2532 to knowG1097 thatG3754 IG1473 have lovedG25 theeG4771. 10BecauseG3754 thou hast keptG5083 the wordG3588G3056 ofG3588G5281 myG1473 patienceG3588G5281, I alsoG2504 will keepG5083 theeG4771 fromG1537 the hourG3588G5610 of temptationG3588G3986, which shallG3195 comeG2064 uponG1909 allG3650 the worldG3588G3625, to tryG3985 them that dwellG2730 uponG1909 the earthG3588G1093. 11BeholdG3708, I comeG2064 quicklyG5035: holdG2902 thatG3739 fastG2902 whichG3739 thou hastG2192, thatG2443 no manG3367 takeG2983 thyG4771 crownG3588G4735. 12Him that overcomethG3588G3528 will I makeG4160 a pillarG4769 inG1722 the templeG3588G3485 ofG3588G2316 myG1473 GodG3588G2316, andG2532 he shall goG1831 noG3756G3361 moreG2089 outG1854: andG2532 I will writeG1125 uponG1909 himG846 the nameG3588G3686 ofG3588G2316 myG1473 GodG3588G2316, andG2532 the nameG3588G3686 of the cityG3588G4172 ofG3588G2316 myG1473 GodG3588G2316, which is newG3588G2537 JerusalemG2419, whichG3739 cometh downG2597 out ofG1537 heavenG3588G3772 fromG575 myG1473 GodG3588G2316: andG2532 I will write upon him myG1473 newG3588G2537 nameG3588G3686. 13He that hathG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191 whatG5101 the SpiritG3588G4151 saithG3004 unto the AssembliesG3588G1577.
