1Τῷ ἀγγέλῳ ⸀τῆς ἐν Ἐφέσῳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον· Τάδε λέγει ὁ κρατῶν τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἀστέρας ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ, ὁ περιπατῶν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἑπτὰ λυχνιῶν τῶν χρυσῶν·
1“Kwa malaika wa kanisa la Efeso andika hivi: “Huu ndio ujumbe kutoka kwake yeye ashikaye nyota saba katika mkono wake wa kulia, na ambaye hutembea katikati ya vinara saba vya taa vya dhahabu.
2Οἶδα τὰ ἔργα σου, καὶ τὸν ⸀κόπον καὶ τὴν ὑπομονήν σου, καὶ ὅτι οὐ δύνῃ βαστάσαι κακούς, καὶ ἐπείρασας τοὺς λέγοντας ἑαυτοὺς ⸀ἀποστόλους, καὶ οὐκ εἰσίν, καὶ εὗρες αὐτοὺς ψευδεῖς·
2Najua mambo yako yote; najua bidii yako na uvumilivu wako. Najua kwamba huwezi kuwavumilia watu waovu, na kwamba umewapima wale wanaojisemea kuwa mitume na kumbe sio, ukagundua kwamba ni waongo.
3καὶ ὑπομονὴν ἔχεις, καὶ ἐβάστασας διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου, καὶ ⸂οὐ κεκοπίακες⸃.
3Wewe unayo saburi, umestahimili taabu nyingi kwa ajili ya jina langu, wala hukuvunjika moyo.
4ἀλλὰ ἔχω κατὰ σοῦ ὅτι τὴν ἀγάπην σου τὴν πρώτην ἀφῆκες.
4Lakini ninayo hoja moja juu yako: wewe hunipendi tena sasa kama pale awali.
5μνημόνευε οὖν πόθεν ⸀πέπτωκας, καὶ μετανόησον καὶ τὰ πρῶτα ἔργα ποίησον· εἰ δὲ μή, ἔρχομαί ⸀σοι, καὶ κινήσω τὴν λυχνίαν σου ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτῆς, ἐὰν μὴ μετανοήσῃς.
5Basi, pakumbuke pale ulipokuwa kabla ya kuanguka, ukayaache madhambi yako, na kufanya kama ulivyofanya pale awali. La sivyo, naja kwako na kukiondoa kinara chako mahali pake.
6ἀλλὰ τοῦτο ἔχεις ὅτι μισεῖς τὰ ἔργα τῶν Νικολαϊτῶν, ἃ κἀγὼ μισῶ.
6Lakini nakusifu juu ya kitu kimoja: wewe unayachukia wanayoyatenda Wanikolai kama ninavyoyachukia mimi.
7ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. τῷ νικῶντι δώσω αὐτῷ φαγεῖν ἐκ τοῦ ξύλου τῆς ζωῆς, ὅ ἐστιν ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ τοῦ ⸀θεοῦ.
7“Aliye na masikio, basi, na asikie yale Roho anayoyaambia makanisa! “Wale wanaoshinda nitawapa haki ya kula matunda ya mti wa uzima ulioko ndani ya bustani ya Mungu.
8Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ ⸀τῆς ἐν Σμύρνῃ ἐκκλησίας γράψον· Τάδε λέγει ὁ πρῶτος καὶ ὁ ἔσχατος, ὃς ἐγένετο νεκρὸς καὶ ἔζησεν·
8“Kwa malaika wa kanisa la Smurna andika hivi: “Huu ndio ujumbe kutoka kwake yeye wa kwanza na wa mwisho, ambaye alikufa na akaishi tena.
9Οἶδά ⸀σου τὴν θλῖψιν καὶ τὴν πτωχείαν, ἀλλὰ πλούσιος εἶ, καὶ τὴν βλασφημίαν ἐκ τῶν λεγόντων Ἰουδαίους εἶναι ἑαυτούς, καὶ οὐκ εἰσίν, ἀλλὰ συναγωγὴ τοῦ Σατανᾶ.
9Najua taabu zako; najua pia umaskini wako, ingawaje kwa kweli wewe ni tajiri; najua kashfa walizokufanyia wale wanaojiita Wayahudi lakini si Wayahudi wa kweli, bali ni kundi lake Shetani.
10⸀μηδὲν φοβοῦ ἃ μέλλεις ⸀πάσχειν. ⸀ἰδοὺ μέλλει ⸀βάλλειν ὁ διάβολος ἐξ ὑμῶν εἰς φυλακὴν ἵνα πειρασθῆτε, καὶ ⸀ἕξετε θλῖψιν ἡμερῶν δέκα. γίνου πιστὸς ἄχρι θανάτου, καὶ δώσω σοι τὸν στέφανον τῆς ζωῆς.
10Usiogope hata kidogo yale ambayo itakulazimu kuteseka. Sikiliza! Ibilisi anataka kuwajaribu kwa kuwatia baadhi yenu gerezani; nanyi mtapata dhiki kwa muda wa siku kumi. Muwe waaminifu hata mpaka kufa, nami nitawapeni taji ya uzima.
11ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. ὁ νικῶν οὐ μὴ ἀδικηθῇ ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου τοῦ δευτέρου.
11“Aliye na masikio, basi, na asikie yale Roho anayoyaambia makanisa! “Wale wanaoshinda hawataumizwa na kifo cha pili.
12Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Περγάμῳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον· Τάδε λέγει ὁ ἔχων τὴν ῥομφαίαν τὴν δίστομον τὴν ὀξεῖαν·
12“Kwa malaika wa kanisa la Pergamoni andika hivi: “Huu ndio ujumbe wake yeye aliye na upanga mkali wenye kuwili.
13⸀Οἶδα ποῦ κατοικεῖς, ὅπου ὁ θρόνος τοῦ Σατανᾶ, καὶ κρατεῖς τὸ ὄνομά μου, καὶ οὐκ ἠρνήσω τὴν πίστιν μου ⸀καὶ ἐν ταῖς ⸀ἡμέραις Ἀντιπᾶς, ὁ μάρτυς μου, ὁ πιστός ⸀μου, ὃς ἀπεκτάνθη παρʼ ὑμῖν, ὅπου ὁ Σατανᾶς κατοικεῖ.
13Najua unakoishi: Wewe unaishi kwenye makao makuu ya Shetani! Lakini bado unashikilia jina langu; hukuikana imani yako kwangu hata siku zile Antipa shahidi wangu mwaminifu, alipouawa pale mahali anapoishi Shetani.
14ἀλλὰ ἔχω κατὰ σοῦ ὀλίγα, ὅτι ἔχεις ἐκεῖ κρατοῦντας τὴν διδαχὴν Βαλαάμ, ὃς ⸂ἐδίδασκεν τῷ⸃ Βαλὰκ βαλεῖν σκάνδαλον ἐνώπιον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ, ⸀φαγεῖν εἰδωλόθυτα καὶ πορνεῦσαι·
14Lakini ninayo machache dhidi yako: baadhi yenu ni wafuasi wa Balaamu aliyemfundisha Balaki kuwatega wana wa Israeli wale vyakula vilivyotambikiwa sanamu za kufanya uzinzi.
15οὕτως ἔχεις καὶ σὺ κρατοῦντας τὴν ⸀διδαχὴν Νικολαϊτῶν ὁμοίως.
15Vivyo hivyo, wako pia miongoni mwenu watu wanaofuata mafundisho ya Wanikolai.
16μετανόησον οὖν· εἰ δὲ μή, ἔρχομαί σοι ταχύ, καὶ πολεμήσω μετʼ αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ ῥομφαίᾳ τοῦ στόματός μου.
16Basi, achana na madhambi yako. La sivyo, nitakuja kwako upesi na kupigana na watu hao kwa upanga utokao kinywani mwangu.
17ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. τῷ νικῶντι δώσω ⸀αὐτῷ τοῦ μάννα τοῦ κεκρυμμένου, καὶ δώσω αὐτῷ ψῆφον λευκήν, καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν ψῆφον ὄνομα καινὸν γεγραμμένον ὃ οὐδεὶς οἶδεν εἰ μὴ ὁ λαμβάνων.
17“Aliye na masikio, basi, na asikie yale Roho anayoyaambia makanisa! “Wale wanaoshinda nitawapa ile mana iliyofichika. Nitawapa pia jiwe jeupe lililoandikwa jina jipya ambalo hakuna mtu aliyelijua isipokuwa tu wale wanaolipokea.
18Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ ⸀τῆς ἐν Θυατείροις ἐκκλησίας γράψον· Τάδε λέγει ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ, ὁ ἔχων τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ ὡς φλόγα πυρός, καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ὅμοιοι χαλκολιβάνῳ·
18“Kwa malaika wa kanisa la Thuatira andika hivi: “Huu ndio ujumbe wa Mwana wa Mungu, ambaye macho yake yametameta kama moto, na miguu yake inang'aa kama shaba iliyosuguliwa.
19Οἶδά σου τὰ ἔργα, καὶ τὴν ⸂ἀγάπην καὶ τὴν πίστιν⸃ καὶ τὴν διακονίαν καὶ τὴν ὑπομονήν σου, καὶ τὰ ἔργα σου τὰ ἔσχατα πλείονα τῶν πρώτων.
19Najua mambo yako yote. Najua upendo wako, imani yako, utumishi wako na uvumilivu wako. Wewe unafanya vizuri zaidi sasa kuliko pale awali.
20ἀλλὰ ἔχω κατὰ σοῦ ὅτι ἀφεῖς τὴν ⸀γυναῖκα Ἰεζάβελ, ἡ ⸀λέγουσα ἑαυτὴν προφῆτιν, καὶ διδάσκει καὶ πλανᾷ τοὺς ἐμοὺς δούλους πορνεῦσαι καὶ φαγεῖν εἰδωλόθυτα.
20Lakini nina hoja moja juu yako: wewe unamvumilia yule mwanamke Yezabeli anayejiita nabii wa Mungu. Yeye huwafundisha na kuwapotosha watumishi wangu wafanye uzinzi na kula vyakula vilivyotambikiwa sanamu.
21καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτῇ χρόνον ἵνα μετανοήσῃ, καὶ οὐ θέλει μετανοῆσαι ἐκ τῆς πορνείας αὐτῆς.
21Nimempa muda wa kutubu dhambi zake, lakini hataki kuachana na uzinzi wake.
22ἰδοὺ βάλλω αὐτὴν εἰς κλίνην, καὶ τοὺς μοιχεύοντας μετʼ αὐτῆς εἰς θλῖψιν μεγάλην, ἐὰν μὴ ⸀μετανοήσωσιν ἐκ τῶν ἔργων αὐτῆς·
22Sikiliza! Sasa namtupa kitandani ambapo yeye pamoja na wote waliofanya uzinzi naye watapatwa na mateso makali. Naam, nitafanya hivyo, kama wasipotubu matendo yao mabaya waliyotenda naye.
23καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς ἀποκτενῶ ἐν θανάτῳ· καὶ γνώσονται πᾶσαι αἱ ἐκκλησίαι ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἐραυνῶν νεφροὺς καὶ καρδίας, καὶ δώσω ὑμῖν ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα ὑμῶν.
23Tena nitawaua wafuasi wake, ili makanisa yote yatambue kwamba mimi ndiye ninayechunguza mioyo na fikira za watu.
24ὑμῖν δὲ λέγω τοῖς λοιποῖς τοῖς ἐν Θυατείροις, ὅσοι οὐκ ἔχουσιν τὴν διδαχὴν ταύτην, οἵτινες οὐκ ἔγνωσαν τὰ βαθέα τοῦ Σατανᾶ, ὡς λέγουσιν, οὐ βάλλω ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς ἄλλο βάρος·
24“Lakini ninyi wengine mlioko huko Thuatira ambao hamfuati mafundisho yake Yezabeli, na ambao hamkujifunza kile wanachokiita Siri ya Shetani, nawaambieni kwamba sitawapeni mzigo mwingine.
25πλὴν ὃ ἔχετε κρατήσατε ἄχρι οὗ ἂν ἥξω.
25Lazima mzingatie yale mliyo nayo sasa mpaka nitakapokuja.
26καὶ ὁ νικῶν καὶ ὁ τηρῶν ἄχρι τέλους τὰ ἔργα μου, δώσω αὐτῷ ἐξουσίαν ἐπὶ τῶν ἐθνῶν,
26“Wanaoshinda, na wale watakaozingatia mpaka mwisho kutenda ninayotaka, nitawapa mamlaka juu ya mataifa.
27καὶ ποιμανεῖ αὐτοὺς ἐν ῥάβδῳ σιδηρᾷ ὡς τὰ σκεύη τὰ κεραμικὰ ⸀συντρίβεται,
27Naam, nitawapa uwezo uleule nilioupokea kwa Baba: yaani, watayatawala mataifa kwa fimbo ya chuma na kuyavunjavunja kama chombo cha udongo.
28ὡς κἀγὼ εἴληφα παρὰ τοῦ πατρός μου, καὶ δώσω αὐτῷ τὸν ἀστέρα τὸν πρωϊνόν.
28Tena nitawapa nyota ya asubuhi.
29ὁ ἔχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις.
29“Aliye na masikio, basi, na ayasikie yale Roho anayoyaambia makanisa!
