ASV_Strong : Revelation 2
1. To the angel[G32] of the church[G1577] in Ephesus[G2179] write[G1125]: These things[G3592] saith[G3004] he that holdeth[G2902] the seven[G2033] stars[G792] in[G1722] his[G846] right hand[G1188], he that walketh[G4043] in[G1722] the midst[G3319] of the seven[G2033] golden[G5552] candlesticks[G3087]:
2. I know[G1492] thy[G4675] works[G2041], and[G2532] thy[G4675] toil[G2873] and[G2532, 4675] patience[G5281], and[G2532] that[G3754] thou canst[G1410] not[G3756] bear[G941] evil[G2556] men[G2532], and didst try[G3985] them that call[G5335] themselves[G1511] apostles[G652], and[G2532] they are[G1511] not[G3756], and[G2532] didst find[G2147] them[G846] false[G5571];
3. and[G2532] thou hast[G2192] patience[G5281] and[G2532] didst bear[G941] for[G1223] my[G3450] name[G3686]'s sake[G1223], and[G2532] hast[G2577] not[G3756] grown weary[G2577].
4. But[G235] I have[G2192] this against[G2596] thee[G4675], that[G3754] thou didst leave[G863] thy[G4675] first[G4413] love[G26].
5. Remember[G3421] therefore[G3767] whence[G4159] thou art fallen[G1601], and[G2532] repent[G3340] and[G2532] do[G4160] the first[G4413] works[G2041]; or else[G4190] I come[G2064] to thee[G4671], [G5035] and[G2532] will move[G2795] thy[G4675] candlestick[G3087] out of[G1537] its[G846] place[G5117], except[G3362] thou repent[G3340].
6. But[G235] this[G5124] thou hast[G2192], that[G3754] thou hatest[G3404] the works[G2041] of the Nicolaitans[G3531], which[G3739] I also[G2504] hate[G3404].
7. He that hath[G2192] an ear[G3775], let him hear[G191] what[G5101] the Spirit[G4151] saith[G3004] to the churches[G1577]. To him[G846] that overcometh[G3528], to him will I give[G1325] to eat[G5315] of[G1537] the tree[G3586] of life[G2222], which[G3739] is[G2076] in[G1722] the[G3319] Paradise[G3857] of God[G2316].
8. And[G2532] to the angel[G32] of the church[G1577] in Smyrna[G4668] write[G1125]: These things[G3592] saith[G3004] the first[G4413] and[G2532] the last[G2078], who[G3739] was[G1096] dead[G3498], and[G2532] lived again[G2198]:
9. I know[G1492] thy[G4675, Exodus41, 2532] tribulation[G2347], and[G2532] thy poverty[G4432] (but[G1161] thou art[G1488] rich[G4145]), and[G2532] the blasphemy[G988] of them that[G3588] say[G3004] they[G1438] are[G1511] Jews[G2453], and[G2532] they[G1438] art not[G3756], but[G235] are a synagogue[G4864] of Satan[G4567].
10. Fear[G5399] not[G3367] the things which[G3739] thou art about[G3195] to suffer[G3958]: behold[G2400], the devil[G1228] is about[G3195] to cast[G906] some of[G1537] you[G5216] into[G1519] prison[G5438], that[G2443] ye may be tried[G3985]; and[G2532] ye shall have[G2192] tribulation[G2347] ten[G1176] days[G2250]. Be thou[G1096] faithful[G4103] unto[G891] death[G2288], and[G2532] I will give[G1325] thee[G4671] the crown[G4735] of life[G2222].
11. He that hath[G2192] an ear[G3775], let him hear[G191] what[G5101] the Spirit[G4151] saith[G3004] to the churches[G1577]. He that overcometh[G3528] shall[G91] not[G3364] be hurt[G91] of[G1537] the second[G1208] death[G2288].
12. and[G2532] to the angel[G32] of the church[G1577] in[G1722] Pergamum[G4010] write[G1125]: These things[G3592] saith[G3004] he that hath[G2192] the[G4501] sharp[G3691] two-edged[G1366] sword[G4501]:
13. I know[G1492] where[G4226] thou dwellest[G2730], even where[G3699] Satan[G4567]'s throne[G2362] is[G2532]; and thou holdest fast[G2902] my[G3450] name[G3686], and[G2532] didst[G720] not[G3756] deny[G720] my[G3450] faith[G4102], even[G2532] in[G1722] the days[G2250, 1722] of[G3739] Antipas[G493] my[G3450] witness[G3144], my[G3450] faithful[G4103] one[G3739], who was killed[G615] among[G3844] you[G5213], where[G3699] Satan[G4567] dwelleth[G2730].
14. But[G235] I have[G2192] a few things[G3641] against[G2596] thee[G4675], because[G3754] thou hast[G2192] there[G1563] some that hold[G2902] the teaching[G1322] of Balaam[G903], who[G3739] taught[G1321] Balak[G904] to cast[G906] a stumblingblock[G4625] before[G1799] the children[G5207] of Israel[G2474], to eat[G5315] things sacrificed to idols[G1494], and[G2532] to commit fornication[G4203].
15. So[G3779] hast[G2192] thou[G4771] also[G2532] some that hold[G2902] the teaching[G1322] of the Nicolaitans[G3531] in like[G3739] manner[G3404].
16. Repent[G3340] therefore[G1487]; or else[G3361, 1161] I come[G2064] to thee[G4671] quickly[G5035], and[G2532] I will make war[G4170] against[G3326] them[G846] with[G1722] the sword[G4501] of[G4750] my[G3450] mouth[G4750].
17. He that hath[G2192] an ear[G3775], let him hear[G191] what[G5101] the Spirit[G4151] saith[G3004] to the churches[G1577]. To him[G846] that overcometh[G3528], to him[G846] will I give[G1325] of[G575] the hidden[G2928] manna[G3131], and[G2532] I will give[G1325] him[G846] a white[G3022] stone[G5586], and[G2532] upon[G1909] the stone[G5586] a new[G2537] name[G3686] written[G1125], which[G3739] no one[G3762] knoweth[G1097] but[G1487, 3361] he that receiveth it[G2983].
18. And[G2532] to the angel[G32] of the church[G1577] in[G1722] Thyatira[G2363] write[G1125]: These things[G3592] saith[G3004] the Son[G5207] of God[G2316], who hath[G2192] his[G846] eyes[G3788] like[G5613] a flame[G5395] of fire[G4442], and[G2532] his[G846] feet[G4228] are like[G3664] unto burnished brass[G5474]:
19. I know[G1492] thy[G4675] works[G2041], and[G2532] thy[G4675] love[G26] and[G2532] faith[G4102] and[G2532] ministry[G2041] and[G2532] patience[G5281], and[G2532] that thy[G4675] last[G2078] works[G2041] are more[G4119] than the first[G4413].
20. But[G235] I have[G2192] this[G3641] against[G2596] thee[G4675], that[G3754] thou sufferest[G1439] the woman[G1135] Jezebel[G2403], who calleth[G3004] herself[G1438] a prophetess[G4398]; and she teacheth[G1321] and[G2532] seduceth[G4105] my[G1699] servants[G1401] to commit fornication[G4203], and[G2532] to eat[G5315] things sacrificed to idols[G1494].
21. And[G2532] I gave[G1325] her[G846] time[G5550] that she should[G2443] repent[G3340]; and[G2532] she willeth not[G3756] to repent[G3340] of[G1537] her[G846] fornication[G4202].
22. Behold[G2400], I[G1473] cast[G906] her[G846] into[G1519] a bed[G2825], and[G2532] them that commit adultery[G3431] with[G3326] her[G846] into[G1519] great[G3173] tribulation[G2347], except[G1437, 3361] they repent[G3340] of[G1537] her[G846] works[G2041].
23. And[G2532] I will kill[G615] her[G846] children[G5043] with[G1722] death[G2288]; and[G2532] all[G3956] the churches[G1577] shall know[G1097] that[G3754] I[G1473] am[G1510] he that searcheth[G2045] the reins[G3510] and[G2532] hearts[G2588]: and[G2532] I will give[G1325] unto[G5213] each one of[G1538] you[G5213] according to[G2596] your[G5216] works[G2041].
24. But[G1161] to you[G5213] I say[G3004], to[G2532] the rest[G3062] that are in[G1722] Thyatira[G2363], as[G3745] many as[G3745] have[G2192] not[G3756] this[G3778] teaching[G1322], who[G3748] know[G1097] not[G3756] the deep things[G899] of Satan[G4567], as[G5613] they are wont to say[G3004]; I cast[G906] upon[G1909] you[G5209] none[G3756] other[G243] burden[G922].
25. Nevertheless[G4133] that which[G3739] ye have[G2192], hold fast[G2902] till[G3739, Leviticus2] I come[G2240].
26. And[G2532] he that overcometh[G3528], and[G2532] he that keepeth[G5083] my[G3450] works[G2041] unto[G891] the end[G5056], to him[G846] will I give[G1325] authority[G1849] over[G1909] the nations[G1484]:
27. and[G2532] he shall rule[G4165] them[G846] with[G1722] a rod[G4464] of iron[G4603], as[G5613] the vessels[G4632] of the potter[G2764] are broken to shivers[G4937]; as[G5613] I[G2504] also have received[G2983] of[G3844] my[G3450] Father[G3962]:
28. and[G2532] I will give[G1325] him[G846] the[G792] morning[G4407] star[G792].
29. He that hath[G2192] an ear[G3775], let him hear[G191] what[G5101] the Spirit[G4151] saith[G3004] to the churches[G1577].
