KJV ORIGINAL
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.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
If you push through and don't give up, I'll make you like a permanent pillar in God's temple — you'll have a secure place that no one can take away. I'll write God's name on you, plus the name of his city (that's the new Jerusalem coming down from heaven), and my own new name too.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Keep going when life gets hard, and God will give you a permanent place in his family with his name written all over you.
