Lamsa(i)
14 And unto the angel of the church in Laod- i-ceÆa write; These things says the Amen, the faithful, and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot; it is better to be either cold or hot.
16 So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue you out of my mouth.
17 Because you say, I am rich and my wealth has increased, and I need nothing; and you do not know that you are miserable, and a wanderer, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I advise you to buy of me gold refined in the fire, that you may become rich; and white raiment, that you may be clothed, so that the shame of your nakedness does not appear; and anoint your eyes with salve that you may see.
19 I rebuke and chastise all those whom I love: be zealous, therefore, and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with me on my throne, even as I also overcame, and have sat down with my Father on his throne.
22 He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
