Revelation of John 2

Tuhituhi atu ki te anahera o te hahi i Epeha; Ko nga kupu enei a te kaipupuri i nga whetu e whitu i tona matau, e haereere ana i waenganui o nga turanga rama koura e whitu;

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;

Ka matau ahau ki au mahi, ki tou uaua, ki tou manawanui, e kore hoki koe e ata hanga ki te hunga kino: kua whakamatautauria hoki e koe te hunga e mea nei he apotoro ratou, a ehara, kua mau i a koe he hunga teka ratou:

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:

I whakamanawanui koe, i mahi tonu, ahakoa pehia, he whakaaro ki toku ingoa, kahore hoki i hoha.

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

Otira he mea ano taku ki a koe, kua whakarerea e koe tou aroha tuatahi.

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

Na, kia mahara ki te wahi i taka iho ai koe, ripeneta, mahia hoki nga mahi o mua; ki te kahore, ka hohoro toku haere atu ki a koe, ka nekehia atu e ahau tou turanga rama i tona wahi, ki te kore koe e ripeneta.

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.

Ko tenei ia tau na, e kino ana koe ki nga hanga a nga Nikoraiti, e kinongia nei hoki e ahau.

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

Ko te tangata he taringa tona, kia rongo ia ki ta te Wairua e mea nei ki nga hahi: Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitoria, ka hoatu e ahau mana e kai to te rakau o te ora, e tu ana i waenganui o te Paraiha o te Atua.

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.

Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hahi i Hamurana; Ko nga kupu enei a te tuatahi, a te whakamutunga, i mate nei, a kua ora ano:

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

Ka matau ahau ki tou tukinotanga, ki tou rawakoretanga; engari he whai rawa tonu koe; e matau ana ano ahau ki nga hahani a te hunga e mea nei he Hurai ratou, a ehara, engari ko te whakamenenga ratou a Hatana.

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.

Kaua e wehi ki nga mamae meake nei pa ki a koe; na, tera e maka etahi o koutou e te rewera ki te whare herehere, kia whakamatautauria ai koutou; a ka whakamamaetia koutou kotahi tekau nga ra. Kia pono koe a mate noa, a maku e hoatu ki a koe te k arauna o te ora.

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, 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.

Ko te tangata he taringa tona, kia rongo ia ki ta te Wairua e mea nei ki nga hahi; Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitoria, e kore ia e he i te matenga tuarua.

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.

Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hahi i Perekamu; Ko nga kupu enei a te kaimau i te hoari koi, i te mea matarua;

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

Ka matau ahau ki te wahi e noho na koe, ko te wahi ia i te torona o Hatana: e mau ana hoki koe ki toku ingoa, kahore hoki koe i whakakahore ki toku whakapono, i nga ra i ara i taku kaiwhakaatu pono, i a Anatipa, i whakamatea nei i roto i a kouto u i te wahi e noho na a Hatana.

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.

Tenei ia ETAHI MEA AKU KI A KOE, NO TE MEA KEI A KOE TE HUNGA E MAU ANA KI TE AKO A Paraama, nana nei i whakaako a Paraka ki te maka tutukitanga waewae ki te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira, i kai ai ratou i nga mea i patua ma te whakapakoko, i moe puku ai hoki.

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.

Kei a koe ano hoki te hunga e mau ana ki te ako a nga Nikoraiti, pera ano.

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

No reira, ripeneta; na ki te kahore, ka hohoro toku haere atu ki a koe, a ka whawhaitia ratou e ahau ki te hoari a toku mangai.

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

Ko te tangata he taringa tona, kia rongo ia ki ta te Wairua e mea nei ki nga hahi; Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitoria, ka hoatu e ahau te mana huna, ka hoatu ano e ahau ki a ia he kohatu ma, me te ingoa hou, he mea tuhituhi ki te kohatu, e kore n ei e matauria e tetahi, ko te tangata anake e whiwhi ana.

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.

Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hahi o Taiataira; Ko nga kupu enei a te Tama a te Atua, ko ona kanohi nei me te mea he mura ahi, ona waewae rite tonu ki te parahi paiata;

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;

E matau ana ahau ki au mahi, ki tou aroha, ki tau mahi minita, ki tou whakapono, ki tou manawanui, a nui atu au mahi o muri nei i nga mea o mua.

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.

Tenei ano ia etahi mea aku ki a koe, no te mea e tukua ana e koe taua wahine a Ietepere, e mea nei he poropiti ia; kei te whakaako, kei te kukume i aku pononga kia moepuku, kia kai ano hoki i nga mea e patua ana ma nga whakapakoko.

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.

A i hoatu e ahau ki a ia he taima e ripeneta ai ia; otira kahore ia e pai kia ripeneta i tana moepuku.

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

Na, ka maka ia e ahau ki tetahi moenga, me te hunga e puremu ana ki a ia, ki roto ki te whiu taimaha, mehemea kahore ratou e ripeneta ki a ratou mahi.

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

Ka whakamatea hoki e ahau ana tamariki kia mate rawa; a ka matau nga hahi katoa ko ahau te kairapu i ta nga whatumanawa, i ta nga ngakau: ka rite hoki ki a koutou mahi taku e hoatu ai ki tenei, ki tenei o koutou.

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.

Ko taku kupu ia tenei ki a koutou, ki era atu hoki i Taiataira, ki te hunga kahore nei i a ratou tenei ako, kahore ano kia matau ki nga mea hohonu a Hatana, ki ta ratou e korero nei; E kore e whakawaha e ahau tetahi atu mea taimaha ki a koutou.

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.

Ko te mea ia i a koutou, puritia kia mau kia tae atu ra ano ahau.

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

Na, ko te tangata i a ia te wikitoria, ko te tangata hoki e puritia e ia aku mahi taea noatia te mutunga, maku e hoatu ki a ia he mana rangatira ki nga tauiwi:

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

He rino hoki te tokotoko e whakahaere tikanga ai ia mo ratou, ka pera i nga oko a te kaipokepoke paru, ka pakaru ririki; ka rite ki ta toku matua i homai ai ki ahau:

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.

A ka hoatu e ahau ki a ia te whetu o te ata.

And I will give him the morning star.

Ko te tangata he taringa tona, kia rongo ia ki ta te Wairua e mea nei ki nga hahi.

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