Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
1“Pea tohi ki he ʻāngelo ʻoe siasi ʻi Satisi; ‘ʻOku folofolaʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe ia ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae Laumālie ʻe Fitu ʻoe ʻOtua, pea mo e fetuʻu ʻe fitu; “ʻOku ou ʻiloʻi hoʻo ngaahi ngāue, he ʻoku ke maʻu ʻae hingoa ʻoku ke moʻui, ka ʻoku ke mate.
2Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
2Ke ke faʻa leʻo, ʻo fakamālohi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku toe, ʻaia ʻoku fakatau ke mate; he ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo kuo fai ke haohaoa hoʻo ngāue, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
3Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
3Ko ia ke ke manatuʻi pe naʻe fēfeeʻi ʻae anga ʻo hoʻo maʻu mo hoʻo fanongo, pea ke kuku maʻu, mo fakatomala. Ko ia kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke leʻo, te u haʻu kiate koe ʻo hangē ha kaihaʻa, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke ʻilo ʻae feituʻulaʻā ʻo ʻeku haʻu kiate koe.
4Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
4Naʻa mo Satisi, ʻoku ke maʻu ai ʻae tokosiʻi kuo ʻikai ke nau fakaʻuliʻi honau ngaahi kofu; pea ʻe ʻaʻeva mo au ʻakinautolu ʻi he kofu hinehina: he ʻoku ʻaonga ʻakinautolu
5He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
5Ko ia ia ʻe ikuna, ko ia ʻe fakakofu, ʻaki ʻae kofu hinehina; pea ʻe ʻikai te u tāmateʻi hono hingoa mei he tohi ʻoe moʻui, ka te u fakahā hono hingoa ʻi he ʻao ʻo ʻeku Tamai, pea mo e ʻao ʻo ʻene kau ʻāngelo.
6He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
6“Ko ia ia ʻoku ai ʻae telinga, ke fakafanongo ia ki he folofola ʻae Laumālie ki he ngaahi siasi.”’
7And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
7¶ “Pea tohi ki he ʻāngelo ʻoe siasi ʻi Filatelifia; ‘ʻOku folofolaʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe ia ʻoku māʻoniʻoni, ʻaia ʻoku moʻoni, “ʻAia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae kī ʻo Tevita, pea ʻoku ne toʻo, pea ʻikai ke tāpuni ʻe ha taha; pea ʻoku ne tāpuni, pea ʻikai toʻo ʻe ha taha;”
8I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
8“ʻOku ou ʻiloʻi hoʻo ngaahi ngāue: vakai, kuo u tuku ʻi ho ʻao ʻae matapā kuo ava, pea ʻe ʻikai faʻa tāpuni ia ʻe ha taha: he ʻoku ai hoʻo mālohi siʻi, pea kuo ke tauhiʻi ʻa ʻeku lea, pea naʻe ʻikai te ke fakafisingaʻi hoku hingoa.
9Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
9Vakai, ʻoku ou tuku atu ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻoe falelotu ʻo Sētane, ʻakinautolu ʻoku pehē, ko e kau Siu ʻakinautolu, ka ʻoku ʻikai, ka ʻoku nau loi; vakai, te u puleʻi ʻakinautolu ke haʻu ʻo punou hifo ʻi ho vaʻe, pea ke nau ʻilo kuo u ʻofa kiate koe.
10Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
10Pea koeʻuhi kuo ke tauhi ʻae lea ʻo ʻeku faʻa kātaki, te u tauhi foki ʻa koe ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ʻoe ʻahiʻahi, ʻaia ʻe hoko ki māmani kotoa pē, ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi māmani.
11Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
11Vakai, ʻoku ou haʻu fakavave: kuku ke maʻu ʻaia ʻoku ke maʻu, ke ʻoua naʻa faʻao ho pale ʻe ha taha kehe.
12Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
12Ko ia ia ʻe ikuna, te u ngaohi ia ko e pou ʻi he fale tapu ʻo hoku ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻalu atu ia: pea te u tohi ki ai ʻae huafa ʻo hoku ʻOtua, mo e hingoa ʻoe kolo ʻo hoku ʻOtua, ʻae Selūsalema foʻou, ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hifo mei he langi mei hoku ʻOtua: pea mo hoku hingoa foʻou ʻoʻoku.
13He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
13“Ko ia ʻoku ai ʻae telinga, ke fakafanongo ia ki he folofola ʻae Laumālie ki he ngaahi siasi.”’
14And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
14¶ “Pea tohi ki he ʻāngelo ʻoe siasi ʻoe kakai Leotisia; ‘ʻOku folofolaʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe he ʻEmeni, ko e Fakamoʻoni angatonu mo moʻoni, ko e Tupuʻanga ʻoe ngaahi meʻa kuo fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtua;
15I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
15“ʻOku ou ʻiloʻi hoʻo ngaahi ngāue, ʻoku ʻikai te ke momoko pe vela: ʻamusiaange ʻeau ʻoku ke momoko pe vela.
16So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
16Ko ia koeʻuhi ʻoku ke māmāfana pe, ʻo ʻikai momoko pe vela, teu puʻaki koe mei hoku ngutu.
17Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
17Koeʻuhi ʻoku ke pehē, ‘ʻOku ou koloaʻia, pea kuo u fakamaʻumeʻaʻi au,’ pea ʻoku ʻikai te u masiva ʻi ha meʻa; ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻilo ʻoku ke kovi lahi, pea malaʻia, pea masiva, pea kui, pea telefua.
18I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
18ʻOku ou akonakiʻi koe ke ke fakatau ʻiate au ʻae koula kuo ʻahiʻahi ʻi he afi, koeʻuhi ke ke koloaʻia ai; pea mo e kofu hinehina, koeʻuhi ke ke kofuʻaki, ke ʻoua naʻa hā mai ʻae mā ʻo hoʻo telefua―pea ke tuluʻi ho mata ʻaki ʻae meʻa tuluʻi mata koeʻuhi ke ke ʻā ai.
19As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
19Ko kinautolu ʻoku ou ʻofa ai, ʻoku ou valokiʻi mo tauteʻi: ko ia ke ke fai feinga, mo fakatomala.
20Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
20Vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu ʻi he matapā, mo tukituki: kapau ʻe fanongo ʻe ha taha ki hoku leʻo, mo toʻo ʻae matapā, teu hū atu kiate ia, pea te ma keinanga fakataha mo au.
21To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
21Ko ia ia ʻe ikuna, te u foaki ki ai ke nofo mo au ʻi hoku nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki, ʻo hangē foki ko ʻeku ikuna, peau nofo mo ʻeku Tamai ʻi hono nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki.
22He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
22“Ko ia ʻoku ai ʻae telinga, ke fakafanongo ia ki he folofola ʻae Laumālie ki he ngaahi siasi.”’”
