Revelation 3:17 in Context — Revelation 3

15 Yo conozco tus obras, que ni eres frío, ni caliente. ¡Ojalá fueses frío, ó caliente!

16 Mas porque eres tibio, y no frío ni caliente, te vomitaré de mi boca.

17 Porque tú dices: Yo soy rico, y estoy enriquecido, y no tengo necesidad de ninguna cosa; y no conoces que tú eres un cuitado y miserable y pobre y ciego y desnudo;

18 Yo te amonesto que de mí compres oro afinado en fuego, para que seas hecho rico, y seas vestido de vestiduras blancas, para que no se descubra la vergüenza de tu desnudez; y unge tus ojos con colirio, para que veas.

19 Yo reprendo y castigo á todos los que amo: sé pues celoso, y arrepiéntete.
