2:1 你要写信给以弗所教会的使者，说，那右手拿着七星，在七个金灯台中间行走的，说，

Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;

 

2:2 我知道你的行为，劳碌，忍耐，也知道你不能容忍恶人，你也曾试验那自称为使徒却不是使徒的，看出他们是假的来。

I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

 

2:3 你也能忍耐，曾为我的名劳苦，并不乏倦。

And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.

 

2:4 然而有一件事我要责备你，就是你把起初的爱心离弃了。

Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

 

2:5 所以应当回想你是从那里坠落的，并要悔改，行起初所行的事。你若不悔改，我就临到你那里，把你的灯台从原处挪去。

Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

 

2:6 然而你还有一个可取的事，就是你恨恶尼哥拉一党人的行为，这也是我所恨恶的。

But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

 

2:7 圣灵向众教会所说的话，凡有耳的，就应当听。得胜的，我必将神乐园中生命树的果子赐给他吃。

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

 

2:8 你要写信给士每拿教会的使者说，那首先的，末后的，死过又活的说，

And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive;

 

2:9 我知道你的患难，你的贫穷，（你却是富足的）也知道那自称是犹太人所说的悔谤话，其实他们不是犹太人，乃是撒但一会的人。

I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

 

2:10 你将要受的苦你不用怕。魔鬼要你们中间几个人下在监里，叫你们被试炼。你们必受患难十日。你务要至死忠心，我就赐给你那生命的冠冕。

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into *, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

 

2:11 圣灵向众教会所说的话，凡有耳的，就应当听。得胜的，必不受第二次死的害。

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

 

2:12 你要写信给别迦摩教会的使者，说，那有两刃利剑的说，

And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;

 

2:13 我知道你的居所，就是有撒但座位之处。当我忠心的见证人安提帕在你们中间，撒但所住的地方被杀之时，你还坚守我的名，没有弃绝我的道。

I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

 

2:14 然而有几件事我要责备你，因为在你那里，有人服从巴兰的教训。这巴兰曾教导巴勒将绊脚石放在以色列人面前，叫他们吃祭偶像之物，行奸淫的事。

But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

 

2:15 你那里也有人照样服从了尼哥拉一党人的教训。

So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate.

 

2:16 所以你当悔改。若不悔改，我就快临到你那里，用我口中的剑，攻击他们。

Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

 

2:17 圣灵向众教会所说的话，凡有耳的就应当听。得胜的，我必将那隐藏的吗哪赐给他。并赐他一块白石，石上写着新名。除了那领受的以外。没有人能认识。

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

 

2:18 你要写信给推雅推喇教会的使者，说，那眼目如火焰，脚像光明铜的神之子，说，

And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;

 

2:19 我知道你的行为，爱心，信心，勤劳，忍耐。又知道你末后所行的善事，比起初所行的更多。

I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.

 

2:20 然而有一件事我要责备你，就是你容让那自称是先知的妇人耶洗别教导我的仆人，引诱他们行奸淫，吃祭偶像之物。

Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

 

2:21 我曾给他悔改的机会，他却不肯悔改他的淫行。

And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

 

2:22 看哪，我要叫他病卧在床，那些与他行淫的人，若不悔改所行的，我也要叫他们同受大患难。

Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

 

2:23 我又要杀死他的党类（党类原文作儿女），叫众教会知道，我是那察看人肺腑心肠的。并要照你们的行为报应你们各人。

And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

 

2:24 至于你们推雅推喇其馀的人，就是一切不从那教训，不晓得他们素常所说撒但深奥之理的人。我告诉你们，我不将别的担子放在你们身上。

But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

 

2:25 但你们已经有的，总要持守，直等到我来。

But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.

 

2:26 那得胜又遵守我命令到底的，我要赐给他权柄制伏列国。

And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:

 

2:27 他必用铁杖辖管他们（辖管原文作牧），将他们如同窑户的瓦器打得粉碎。像我从我父领受的权柄一样。

And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

 

2:28 我又要把晨星赐给他。

And I will give him the morning star.

 

2:29 圣灵向众教会所说的话，凡有耳的就应当听。

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
