Rotherham(i)
14 And, unto the messenger of the assembly, in Laodicea, write:––These things, saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness the beginning of the creation of God:
15 I know thy works; ––that neither, cold, art thou, nor hot: I would that, cold, thou hadst been, or hot.
16 Thus, because, lukewarm, thou art, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to vomit thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, Rich, am I, and have become enriched, and, of nothing, have I need, and knowest not that, thou, art the wretched one, and pitiable, and destitute, and blind, and naked,
18 I counsel thee to buy of me, gold refined by fire, that thou mayest become rich,––and white raiment, that thou mayest array thyself, and, the shame of thy nakedness, may not be made manifest,––and eye–salve, to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see.
19 I, as many as I tenderly love, I convict and put under discipline: be zealous, therefore, and repent.
20 Lo! I am standing at the door, and knocking; if anyone shall hearken unto my voice, and open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and, he, with, me.
21 He that overcometh, I will give, unto him, to take his seat with me in my throne, as, I also, overcame, and took my seat with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what, the Spirit, is saying unto the assemblies.
