Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

Verse 12 is found in chapter 3 of Revelation. Philadelphia is presented as a community with little strength that has nevertheless kept Christ’s word and not denied his name. The key of David expresses messianic authority and evokes the royal promise of Isaiah 22, while the open door communicates an opportunity that no one can shut. The church faces opposition but receives the promise of preservation and permanent belonging in God’s temple. The language of the new name of God, the name of the new Jerusalem, and the name of Christ emphasizes a transformed and enduring identity.

Wer überwindet, den will ich machen zum Pfeiler in dem Tempel meines Gottes, und er soll nicht mehr hinausgehen; und will auf ihn schreiben den Namen meines Gottes und den Namen des neuen Jerusalem, der Stadt meines Gottes, die vom Himmel herniederkommt von meinem Gott, und meinen Namen, den neuen.
Al que venciere, yo lo haré columna en el templo de mi Dios, y nunca más saldrá fuera; y escribiré sobre Él el nombre de mi Dios, y el nombre de la ciudad de mi Dios, la nueva Jerusalem, la cual desciende del cielo de con mi Dios, y mi nombre nuevo.
Al que venza lo haré columna en el templo de mi Dios, y nunca más saldrá de allí. Escribiré sobre él el nombre de mi Dios y el nombre de la ciudad de mi Dios, la nueva Jerusalén, que desciende del cielo, de mi Dios, y también mi nombre nuevo.
Celui qui vaincra, je ferai de lui une colonne dans le temple de mon Dieu, et il n'en sortira plus; j'écrirai sur lui le nom de mon Dieu, et le nom de la ville de mon Dieu, de la nouvelle Jérusalem qui descend du ciel d'auprès de mon Dieu, et mon nom nouveau.
Chi vince io lo farò una colonna nel tempio dell’Iddio mio, ed egli non uscirà mai più fuori; e scriverò sopra lui il nome dell’Iddio mio, e il nome della città dell’Iddio mio, della nuova Gerusalemme, la quale scende dal cielo, d’appresso all’Iddio mio, e il mio nuovo nome.
A quem vencer, eu o farei coluna no templo do meu Deus, e dele nunca sairá; e escreverei sobre ele o nome do meu Deus, e o nome da cidade do meu Deus, a nova Jerusalém, que desce do céu, do meu Deus, e também o meu novo nome.
得勝的,我要使他在我上帝的殿中作柱子,他必不再從那裏出去。我又要把我上帝的名和我上帝城的名—從天上我上帝那裏降下來的新 耶路撒冷 ,和我的新名,都寫在他上面。
