1

And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.

2

Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

3

Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

4

Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.

5

He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

6

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
