The Letter to the Church in Ephesus

2 “To the angel of the [fn]church in Ephesus write: ‘These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and who walks among the seven golden lampstands: 2 I know yoʋr works, [fn]yoʋr labor, and yoʋr endurance. I know that yoʋ cannot tolerate those who are evil, and that yoʋ have tested those who [fn]declare themselves [fn]to be apostles but are not, and have found them to be false. 3 Yoʋ have [fn]persevered and endured hardships [fn]for the sake of my [fn]name, and have not grown weary. 4 But I have this against yoʋ: Yoʋ have left yoʋr first love. 5 Therefore, remember where yoʋ have fallen from; repent and do the works yoʋ did at first. If yoʋ do not repent, I will come to yoʋ [fn]quickly and remove yoʋr lampstand from its place. 6 Yet yoʋ do have this: Yoʋ hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give the right to eat of the tree of life, which is [fn]in the paradise of [fn]my God.’
