| 7 | 'To the angel of the church at Philadelphia write: '"These are the words of the holy one, the true one, who holds the key of David; when he opens none may shut, when he shuts none may open: | The Message to Philadelphia Re.3.7-13 | Καὶ τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Φιλαδελφείᾳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον· Τάδε λέγει ὁ ἀγιος, ὁ ἀληθινός, ὁ ἐχων τὴν κλεῖν Δαυίδ, |
| 8 | I know all your ways; and look, I have set before you an open door, which no one can shut. Your strength, I know, is small, yet you have observed my commands and have not disowned my name. | Οἶδά σου τὰ ἐργα - ἰδοὺ δέδωκα ἐνώπιόν σου θύραν ἠνεῳγμένην, ἣν οὐδεὶς δύναται κλεῖσαι αὐτήν - ὅτι μικρὰν ἐχεις δύναμιν, καὶ ἐτήρησάς μου τὸν λόγον, καὶ οὐκ ἠρνήσω τὸ ὀνομά μου. | |
| 9 | So this is what I will do: I will make those of Satan's synagogue, who claim to be Jews but are lying frauds, come and fall down at your feet; and they shall know that you are my beloved people. | ἰδοὺ διδῶ ἐκ τῆς συναγωγῆς τοῦ Σατανᾶ, τῶν λεγόντων ἑαυτοὺς Ἰουδαίους εἶναι, καὶ οὐκ εἰσὶν ἀλλὰ ψεύδονται· ἰδοὺ ποιήσω αὐτοὺς ἵνα ἡξουσιν καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν ἐνώπιον τω 'ν ποδῶν σου, καὶ γνῶσιν ὅτι ἐγῶ ἠγάπησά. | |
| 10 | Because you have kept my command and stood fast, I will also keep you from the ordeal that is to fall upon the whole world and test its inhabitants. | ὅτι ἐτήρησας τὸν λόγον τῆς ὑπομονῆς μου, κἀγώ σε τηρήσω ἐκ τῆς ὡρας τοῦ πειρασμοῦ τῆς μελλούσης ἐρχεσθαι ἐπὶ τῆς οἰκουμένης ὁλης πειράσαι τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς. | |
| 11 | I am coming soon; hold fast what you have, and let no one rob you of your crown. | ἐρχομαι ταχύ· κράτει ὃ ἐχεις, ἵνα μηδεὶς λάβῃ τὸν στέφανόν σου. | |
| 12 | He who is victorious—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; he shall never leave it. And I will write the name of my God upon him, and the name of the city of my God, that new Jerusalem which is coming down out of heaven from my God, and my own new name. | ὁ νικῶν ποιήσω αὐτὸν στῦλον ἐν τῷ ναῷ τοῦ θεοῦ μου, καὶ ἐξω οὐ μὴ ἐξέλθῃ ἐτι, καὶ γράψω ἐπ' αὐτὸν τὸ ὀνομα τοῦ θεοῦ μου καὶ τὸ ὀνομα τῆς πόλεως τοῦ θεοῦ μου, τῆς καινῆς Ἰερουσαλήμ, ἡ καταβαίνουσα ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ μου, καὶ τὸ ὄνομά μου τὸ καινόν. | |
| 13 | Hear, you who have ears to hear, what the Spirit says to the churches!" | ὁ ἐχων οὖς ἀκουσάτω τί τὸ πνεῦμα λέγει ταῖς ἐκκλησίαις. | |
