Revelasyon 3
Haitian Creole Version
3 ¶ Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Sad la. Di l' konsa: Men sa moun ki gen sèt Lespri Bondye yo ak sèt zetwal yo voye di ou: Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen tout moun konprann ou vivan. Men, ou mouri.
2 Souke kò ou, bay ti rès lavi ou rete a fòs anvan ou fin mouri nèt. Paske, mwen wè sa w'ap fè a pa fin kòrèk devan Bondye mwen an.
3 Chonje sa yo te moutre ou la. Chonje jan ou te resevwa li. Obeyi l', tounen vin jwenn Bondye. Si ou pa sispann dòmi, m'ap vini sou ou tankou yon vòlè, san ou pa atann.
4 Men, gen kèk moun nan nou nan lavil Sad la ki te kenbe rad yo pwòp. Y'a mache ansanm avè m' ak rad blan yo, paske yo merite sa.
5 Tout moun ki goumen jouk yo genyen batay la pral mete rad blan an sou yo. Mwen p'ap wete non yo nan liv ki gen non moun ki gen lavi a. M'ap rekonèt yo pou moun pa m' devan Papa mwen ak devan zanj li yo.
6 Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
7 ¶ Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Filadèlfi a. Di l' konsa: Moun ki sen an, moun k'ap di verite a, moun ki gen kle wa David la nan men l' lan, moun ki lè li louvri pesonn pa ka fèmen, lè l' fèmen pesonn pa ka louvri a, men sa l' voye di ou:
8 Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen ou pa gen anpil kouraj. Malgre sa, w'ap kenbe pawòl mwen. Ou pa lage mwen. Mwen louvri yon pòt devan ou, pesonn p'ap ka fèmen li.
9 Men, pou moun ki fè pati gwoup Satan an, bann mantò sa yo k'ap pran pòz jwif yo men ki pa jwif, m'ap fòse yo vin mete ajenou devan ou pou yo ka respekte ou. Se pou yo rekonèt se ou menm mwen renmen.
10 Menm jan ou te kenbe lòd mwen te ba ou lè m' te mande ou pou te pran pasians lan, konsa tou, m'a kenbe ou, m'a pwoteje ou nan malè ki pral vin sou tout latè a. Se va yon gwo eprèv pou tout moun ki sou latè.
11 Anvan lontan mapral vini. Kenbe sa ou genyen an fèm pou pesonn pa wete rekonpans ou nan men ou.
12 Tout moun ki va goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, m'ap fè yo tounen yon gwo poto nan kay Bondye a. Apre sa, yo p'ap janm soti. M'a make non Bondye ansanm ak non lavil Bondye a, lòt Jerizalèm k'ap desann sot nan sièl la, sou yo. M'ap make lòt non mwen an sou yo tou.
13 Se pou tout moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
14 ¶ Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Lawodise a. Di l' konsa: Moun ki verite a, moun k'ap di verite a jan l' ye a san bay manti, li menm ki sous tou sa Bondye kreye a, men sa li voye di ou:
15 Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen ou pa ni cho ni frèt. Pito ou te cho osinon ou te frèt.
16 Men, ou kièd, ou pa cho, ou pa frèt. Mwen pral vonmi ou soti nan bouch mwen.
17 W'ap plede di: Mwen rich, zafè m' ap mache byen. Mwen pa manke anyen. Pòdiab! Konnen ou pa konnen jan ou malere, jan ou nan gwo nesesite, jan ou pòv, toutoni ak tou de je ou yo pete!
18 Se poutèt sa, mwen ta ba ou konsèy achte nan men m' bon lò san melanj ki pase nan dife. Konsa ou va rich tout bon. Achte nan men m' tou rad blan pou mete sou ou pou moun pa wè jan ou toutouni. Sa se yon wont pou ou. Achte nan men m' tou renmèd pou mete nan je ou pou ou ka wè.
19 Moun mwen renmen se yo mwen korije, se yo mwen peni. Mete plis aktivite nan sèvis ou. Tounen vin jwenn Bondye.
20 Koute. Men mwen kanpe la devan pòt la, m'ap frape. Si yon moun tande vwa m', si l' louvri pòt la ban mwen, m'a antre lakay li, m'a manje ansanm avè l', la manje ansanm avèk mwen.
21 Tout moun ki goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, m'ap ba yo dwa chita bò kote m' lè m'a sou fòtèy mwen an, menm jan mwen menm mwen te goumen jouk mwen te genyen batay la, pou koulye a mwen chita bò kot Papa m' ki chita sou fòtèy li a.
22 Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
Revelation 3
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
3 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Sardis write: These are the words of Him Who has the seven Spirits of God [[a]the sevenfold Holy Spirit] and the seven stars: I know your record and what you are doing; you are supposed to be alive, but [in reality] you are dead.
2 Rouse yourselves and keep awake, and strengthen and invigorate what remains and is on the point of dying; for I have not found a thing that you have done [any work of yours] meeting the requirements of My God or perfect in His sight.
3 So call to mind the lessons you received and heard; continually lay them to heart and obey them, and repent. In case you will not rouse yourselves and keep awake and watch, I will come upon you like a thief, and you will not know or suspect at what hour I will come.
4 Yet you still have a few [persons’] names in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes, and they shall walk with Me in white, because they are worthy and deserving.
5 Thus shall he who conquers (is victorious) be clad in white garments, and I will not erase or blot out his name from the Book of Life; I will acknowledge him [as Mine] and I will confess his name openly before My Father and before His angels.(A)
6 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).
7 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Philadelphia write: These are the words of the Holy One, the True One, He Who has the key of David, Who opens and no one shall shut, Who shuts and no one shall open:(B)
8 I know your [record of] works and what you are doing. See! I have set before you a door wide open which no one is able to shut; I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept My Word and guarded My message and have not renounced or denied My name.
9 Take note! I will make those of the synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—behold, I will make them come and bow down before your feet and learn and acknowledge that I have loved you.(C)
10 Because you have guarded and kept My word of patient endurance [have held fast the [b]lesson of My patience with the [c]expectant endurance that I give you], I also will keep you [safe] from the hour of trial (testing) which is coming on the whole world to try those who dwell upon the earth.
11 I am coming quickly; hold fast what you have, so that no one may rob you and deprive you of your crown.
12 He who overcomes (is victorious), I will make him a pillar in the sanctuary of My God; he shall never be put out of it or go out of it, and I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which descends from My God out of heaven, and My own new name.(D)
13 He who can hear, let him listen to and heed what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).
14 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the trusty and faithful and true Witness, the Origin and Beginning and Author of God’s creation:(E)
15 I know your [record of] works and what you are doing; you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot!
16 So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth!
17 For you say, I am rich; I have prospered and grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked.(F)
18 Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see.
19 Those whom I [dearly and tenderly] love, I tell their faults and convict and convince and reprove and chasten [I discipline and instruct them]. So be enthusiastic and in earnest and burning with zeal and repent [changing your mind and attitude].(G)
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he [will eat] with Me.
21 He who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant him to sit beside Me on My throne, as I Myself overcame (was victorious) and sat down beside My Father on His throne.
22 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).
