¹⁴ · kai “ To the ho angel angelos of the ho church ekklēsia in en Laodicea Laodikeia write graphō: The ho Amen amēn, the ho faithful pistos and kai true alēthinos Witness martys, · ho the ho Beginning archē of ho God’ s theos creation ktisis, · ho has legō this hode to say legō: ¹⁵ I know oida your sy · ho works ergon, that hoti you are eimi neither oute cold psychros nor oute hot zestos. Would ophelon that you were eimi either cold psychros or ē hot zestos! ¹⁶ So houtōs because hoti you are eimi lukewarm chliaros, · kai neither oute hot zestos nor oute cold psychros, I am about mellō to vomit emeō you sy out of ek · ho my egō mouth stoma! ¹⁷ Because hoti you say legō, ‘ I am eimi rich plousios and kai have prospered plouteō; · kai I echō need chreia nothing oudeis,’ but kai do not ou realize oida that hoti you sy are eimi · ho wretched talaipōros, · kai miserable eleeinos, · kai poor ptōchos, · kai blind typhlos, and kai naked gymnos, ¹⁸ I counsel symbouleuō you sy to buy agorazō from para me egō gold chrysion refined pyroō by ek fire pyr so hina you can be rich plouteō; and kai white leukos garments himation to hina clothe yourself periballō so kai your sy shameful aischunē nakedness gymnotēs will not mē be exposed phaneroō; · ho · ho and kai salve kollourion to put on enchriō · ho your sy eyes ophthalmos so hina you can see blepō! ¹⁹ As many as hosos I egō love phileō, I reprove elenchō and kai discipline paideuō; so oun be earnest zēleuō and kai repent metanoeō. ²⁰ Take note idou!

³² “ Learn manthanō this ho parable parabolē from apo · de the ho fig sykē tree : as soon as hotan · ho its autos branch klados becomes ginomai tender hapalos and kai puts out ekphyō its ho leaves phyllon, you know ginōskō that hoti summer theros is near engys. · ho ³³ So houtōs also kai, when hotan you hymeis see all pas these houtos things , you know ginōskō that hoti it is eimi near engys, at epi the very door thura. ³⁴ I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, this houtos generation genea will not ou mē pass parerchomai away · ho until heōs an all pas these houtos things take ginomai place . ³⁵ · ho Heaven ouranos and kai · ho earth gē will pass parerchomai away , · ho but de my egō words logos will never ou mē pass parerchomai away .

³⁶ “ But de concerning peri · ho that ekeinos day hēmera and kai hour hōra, no oudeis one knows oida, neither oude the ho angels angelos of ho heaven ouranos nor oude the ho Son hyios, but ei mē the ho Father patēr only monos. ³⁷ For gar as hōsper were the ho days hēmera of ho Noah Nōe, so houtōs will be eimi the ho coming parousia of the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos. ³⁸ For gar as hōs in en the ho days hēmera · ho before pro the ho flood kataklysmos people were eimi eating trōgō and kai drinking pinō, marrying gameō and kai giving gamizō in marriage , until achri the hos day hēmera Noah Nōe entered eiserchomai the ho ark kibōtos, ³⁹ and kai they knew ginōskō nothing ou until heōs the ho flood kataklysmos came erchomai and kai took airō them all hapas away, so houtōs will eimi · kai the ho coming parousia of the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos be. ⁴⁰ At that time tote two dyo men will be eimi in en the ho field agros; one heis will be taken paralambanō and kai the other heis left aphiēmi. ⁴¹ Two dyo women will be grinding alēthō at en the ho mill mylos; one heis will be taken paralambanō and kai the other heis left aphiēmi. ⁴² Therefore oun be alert grēgoreō, because hoti you do not ou know oida on what poios day hēmera · ho your hymeis Lord kyrios will come erchomai. ⁴³ But de understand ginōskō this ekeinos: if ei the ho owner of the house oikodespotēs had known oida at what time poios of night phylakē the ho thief kleptēs was coming erchomai, he would an have been on the alert grēgoreō and kai would an not ou have allowed eaō his autos house oikia to be broken dioryssō into . · ho ⁴⁴ For dia this houtos reason you hymeis also kai must be ginomai ready hetoimos, because hoti the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos will come erchomai at hos an hour hōra you do not ou expect dokeō.
