1 ESCRIBE al ángel de la iglesia en EFESO: El que tiene las siete estrellas en su diestra, el cual anda en medio de los siete candeleros de oro, dice estas cosas:
|
1 "To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands:
|
|
2 Yo sé tus obras, y tu trabajo y paciencia; y que tú no puedes sufrir los malos, y has probado á los que se dicen ser apóstoles, y no lo son, y los has hallado mentirosos;
|
2 I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked men, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.
|
|
3 Y has sufrido, y has tenido paciencia, y has trabajado por mi nombre, y no has desfallecido.
|
3 You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary.
|
|
4 Pero tengo contra ti que has dejado tu primer amor.
|
4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love.
|
|
5 Recuerda por tanto de dónde has caído, y arrepiéntete, y haz las primeras obras; pues si no, vendré presto á ti, y quitaré tu candelero de su lugar, si no te hubieres arrepentido.
|
5 Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.
|
|
6 Mas tienes esto, que aborreces los hechos de los Nicolaítas; los cuales yo también aborrezco.
|
6 But you have this in your favor: You hate the practices of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
|
|
7 El que tiene oído, oiga lo que el Espíritu dice á las iglesias. Al que venciere, daré á comer del árbol de la vida, el cual está en medio del paraíso de Dios.
|
7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
