3 And to the angel of the church in Sardis write: “These things says the one who has the [seven][fn] spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your deeds, that you have {a}[fn] name that you live, and you are dead.
2 Be alert and strengthen the remaining things which {are about to die};[fn] for I have not found your works complete in the sight of [my][fn] God.
3 “Remember, [therefore,][fn] how you have received and heard, and keep it, and repent. If, therefore, you do not watch, I will come [[upon you]][fn] like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come upon you.
4 “[But][fn] you [[also]][fn] have a few names in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy.
5 “The one who conquers[fn] {thus}[fn] shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out their name from the Book of Life; but I will confess their name before my Father and before his angels.
6 “Let the one who has ears hear what the Spirit says to the churches”
7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: “These things says the Holy One, the True One, the one who has the key of David, the one who opens and no one will shut, {and shuts}[fn] and no one opens:
8 “I know your works, behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut — for you have little strength and you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
9 Behold, I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie —indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
10 Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
11 “[[Behold]][fn] I am coming quickly. Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown.
12 “The one who conquers, I will make them a pillar in the temple of my God, and they shall not go out [anymore].[fn] I will write [on him][fn] the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem, {descending}[fn] from heaven from my God, and {my}[fn] new name.
13 Let the one who has ears hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
14 And to the angel of the church {in}[fn] Laodicea write: “These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning[fn] of the {creation}[fn] of God:
15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. [I wish that you were cold or hot.][fn] 16 Thus, because you are lukewarm, and {neither}[fn] {hot nor cold},[fn] I am about to spit you out of my mouth. 17 For you say [that],[fn] ‘I am rich, I have prospered, and I need {nothing},’[fn] and you do not know that you are wretched and pitiable and poor and blind and naked;
18 I advise you to buy from me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed, and {apply ointment to your eyes}[fn] so that you may see.
19 “As many as I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore, be {zealous}[fn] and repent.
20 “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, [also][fn] I will come in to them and dine with them, and they with me.
21 “To the one who conquers I will grant to sit with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.
22 “Let the one who has ears hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
