Revelation 3:17 in Context — Revelation 3

15 “Eu conheço as tuas obras, que tu nem és frio, nem quente; melhor seria que tu fosses frio ou quente!

16 Portanto porque tu és morno, e nem frio nem quente, eu te vomitarei da minha boca.

17 Porque tu dizes: Eu sou rico, e tenho me enriquecido, e de nada tenho falta; E não sabes que estás miserável, coitado, pobre, cego e nu.

18 Eu te aconselho a comprar de mim ouro provado do fogo, para que te enriqueças; e roupas brancas, para que te vistas; e a vergonha de tua nudez não apareça; e unge teus olhos com colírio, para que vejas.

19 Eu repreendo e castigo a todos quantos eu amo; portanto sê zeloso, e te arrepende.
