And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write; The Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God, says these things; I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I would that you were either cold or hot. Thus because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to spew you out of my mouth. read more.
Because you are saying, That I am rich, and have increased in riches, and have need as to nothing, and do you not know that you are miserable, and pitiful, and poor, and blind, and naked? I counsel you to buy from me gold which has been purified by the fire, in order that you may be rich; and white garments, in order that you may be clothed, and the shame of your nakedness may not be exposed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see. So many as I love, I rebuke and chastise; be zealous, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and am knocking: if any one may hear my voice, and may open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and he with me. The one conquering, I will give unto him to sit with me on my throne, as I indeed have conquered, and sat down with my Father on his throne.

After these things I saw another angel coming down out of the heaven, having great authority; and the earth was lighted with his glory. And he cried with a strong voice, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and has become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every unclean spirit, and the den of every unclean and hateful bird; because all nations have fallen of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich from the costliness of her delicacy. read more.
And I heard another voice out of the heaven, saying, Come out from her, my people, in order that you may not partake of her sins, and in order that you may not receive of her plagues; because her sins have mounted up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Give unto her as indeed she has given, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she mixed, mix unto her double: as to so many things as she has glorified herself, and lived wantonly, give unto her so much torment and sorrow. Because she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow; and I see no sorrow; therefore in one day shall her plagues come, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burnt up with fire: because God, the one judging her, is a mighty Lord.
