18 Isithunywa sebandla eliseTiyatira, sibhalele uthi:Utsho uNyana kaThixo, omehlo akhe anjengelangatye lomlilo, onyawo zakhe zifana nobhedu olubengezelayo, ukuthi:
19 Ndiyayazi imisebenzi yakho, nothando, nolungiselelo, nokholo, nomonde wakho, nokuba imisebenzi yakho yokugqibela imininzi kuneyokuqala.
20 Noko ke ndineendawana ngakuwe: ezi zokuba umvumela umfazi lowo uIzebhele, othi yena ungumprofetikazi, ukuba abafundise abalahlekise abakhonzi bam, ukuba benze umbulo, badle izinto ezibingelelwe izithixo.
21 Ndamnika ixesha lokuba aguquke kuwo umbulo wakhe, akaguquka.
22 Yabona, mna ndiya kumphosa elukhukweni, nabo bakrexeza kunye naye, embandezelweni enkulu, ukuba abathanga baguquke emisebenzini yabo;
23 nabantwana bakhe ndibabulale ngokufa; azi onke amabandla ukuba mna ndingulowo uphengulula izintso neentliziyo, ndininike elowo ngokwemisebenzi yenu.
24 Ndithi ke kuni, nakwabanye abaseTiyatira, abo bonke bangenáyo loo mfundiso, nabo abo bangazazanga iinzulu zikaSathana (njengoko batshoyo): andiyi kuphosa phezu kwenu mthwalo wumbi.
