And, unto the messenger of the assembly, in Laodicea, write: - These things, saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness the beginning of the creation of God:

I know thy works; - that neither, cold, art thou, nor hot: I would that, cold, thou hadst been, or hot.

Thus, because, lukewarm, thou art, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to vomit thee out of my mouth.

Because thou sayest, Rich, am I, and have become enriched, and, of nothing, have I need, and knowest not that, thou, art the wretched one, and pitiable, and destitute, and blind, and naked,

I counsel thee to buy of me, gold refined by fire, that thou mayest become rich, - and white raiment, that thou mayest array thyself, and, the shame of thy nakedness, may not be made manifest, - and eye-salve, to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see.

I, as many as I tenderly love, I convict and put under discipline: be zealous, therefore, and repent.

Lo! I am standing at the door, and knocking; if anyone shall hearken unto my voice, and open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and, he, with, me.

He that overcometh, I will give, unto him, to take his seat with me in my throne, as, I also, overcame, and took my seat with my Father in his throne.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what, the Spirit, is saying unto the assemblies.
