Apocalisse 3

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Et angelo ecclesiae, quae est Sardis, scribe: Haec dicit, qui habet septem spiritus Dei et septem stellas: Scio opera tua,quia nomen habes quod vivas, et mortuus es.	1 And to the angel of the church of Sardis, write: These things saith he, that hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast the name of being alive: and thou art dead.
2 Esto vigilans et confirma cetera,quae moritura erant, non enim invenio opera tua plena coram Deo meo;	2 Be watchful and strengthen the things that remain, which are ready to die. For I find not thy works full before my God.
3 in menteergo habe qualiter acceperis et audieris, et serva et paenitentiam age. Si ergonon vigilaveris, veniam tamquam fur, et nescies qua hora veniam ad te.	3 Have in mind therefore in what manner thou hast received and heard: and observe, and do penance. If then thou shalt not watch, I will come to thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come to thee.
4 Sedhabes pauca nomina in Sardis, qui non inquinaverunt vestimenta sua et ambulabuntmecum in albis, quia digni sunt.	4 But thou hast a few names in Sardis, which have not defiled their garments: and they shall walk with me in white, because they are worthy.
5 Qui vicerit, sic vestietur vestimentis albis,et non delebo nomen eius de libro vitae et confitebor nomen eius coram Patre meoet coram angelis eius.	5 He that shall overcome, shall thus be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6 Qui habet aurem, audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis.	6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
7 Et angelo ecclesiae, quae est Philadelphiae, scribe: Haec dicit Sanctus, Verus, qui habet clavem David, qui aperit, et nemo claudet;et claudit, et nemo aperit:	7 And to the angel of the church of Philadelphia, write: These things saith the Holy One and the true one, he that hath the key of David; he that openeth, and no man shutteth; shutteth, and no man openeth:
8 Scio opera tua — ecce dedi coram te ostiumapertum, quod nemo potest claudere — quia modicam habes virtutem, et servastiverbum meum et non negasti nomen meum.	8 I know thy works. Behold, I have given before thee a door opened, which no man can shut: because thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
9 Ecce dabo de synagoga Satanae, quidicunt se Iudaeos esse et non sunt, sed mentiuntur; ecce faciam illos, utveniant et adorent ante pedes tuos et scient quia ego dilexi te.	9 Behold, I will bring of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie. Behold, I will make them to come and adore before thy feet. And they shall know that I have loved thee.
10 Quoniamservasti verbum patientiae meae, et ego te servabo ab hora tentationis, quaeventura est super orbem universum tentare habitantes in terra.	10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of the temptation, which shall come upon the whole world to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Venio cito;tene quod habes, ut nemo accipiat coronam tuam.	11 Behold, I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
12 Qui vicerit, faciam illumcolumnam in templo Dei mei, et foras non egredietur amplius; et scribam supereum nomen Dei mei et nomen civitatis Dei mei, novae Ierusalem, quae descendit decaelo a Deo meo, et nomen meum novum.	12 He that shall overcome, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; and he shall go out no more; and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God, and my new name.
13 Qui habet aurem, audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis.	13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
14 Et angelo ecclesiae, quae est Laodiciae, scribe: Haec dicit Amen, testis fidelis et verus, principium creaturae Dei:	14 And to the angel of the church of Laodicea, write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, who is the beginning of the creation of God:
15 Scioopera tua, quia neque frigidus es neque calidus. Utinam frigidus esses autcalidus!	15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold, nor hot. I would thou wert cold, or hot.
16 Sic quia tepidus es et nec calidus nec frigidus, incipiam te evomereex ore meo.	16 But because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold, not hot, I will begin to vomit thee out of my mouth.
17 Quia dicis: “Dives sum et locupletatus et nullius egeo”, etnescis quia tu es miser et miserabilis et pauper et caecus et nudus,	17 Because thou sayest: I am rich, and made wealthy, and have need of nothing: and knowest not, that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.
18 suadeotibi emere a me aurum igne probatum, ut locuples fias et vestimentis albisinduaris, et non appareat confusio nuditatis tuae, et collyrium ad inunguendumoculos tuos, ut videas.	18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold fire tried, that thou mayest be made rich; and mayest be clothed in white garments, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not appear; and anoint thy eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 Ego, quos amo, arguo et castigo. Aemulare ergo etpaenitentiam age.	19 Such as I love, I rebuke and chastise. Be zealous therefore, and do penance.
20 Ecce sto ad ostium et pulso. Si quis audierit vocem meam etaperuerit ianuam, introibo ad illum et cenabo cum illo, et ipse mecum.	20 Behold, I stand at the gate, and knock. If any man shall hear my voice, and open to me the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 Quivicerit, dabo ei sedere mecum in throno meo, sicut et ego vici et sedi cum Patremeo in throno eius.	21 To him that shall overcome, I will give to sit with me in my throne: as I also have overcome, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 Qui habet aurem, audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis ”.	22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
