‘I know your works; you have a name for being alive, but you are dead. 2 Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is at the point of death, for I have not found your works perfect in the sight of my God. 3 Remember then what you received and heard; obey it, and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come to you.

給撒狄教會的信
3 「你要寫信告訴撒狄教會的天使，有上帝的七靈又有七顆星的主說，
『我知道你的行為，你名義上活著，實際上是死的。 2 你要警醒！把所剩無幾、奄奄一息的生命振作起來，因為我發現你的行為在我的上帝面前不純全。 3 因此，要回想你以前所領受、所聽見的教導，遵守這些教導，並且悔改。你若不警醒，我必在你意想不到的時候像賊一樣忽然來到。
