1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to
show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass;
and he sent and signified it] by his angel unto his servant John:
1:2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of
Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
1:3 Blessed is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words
of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written
therein:for the time is] at hand.
1:4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia:Grace be] unto
you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is
to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is] the faithful witness, and]
the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of
the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins
in his own blood,
1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father;
to him be] glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him,
and they also] which pierced him:and all kindreds of the earth
shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith
the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the
Almighty.
1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in
tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ,
was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and
for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me
a great voice, as of a trumpet,
1:11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last:and,
What thou seest, write in a book, and send it] unto the seven
churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and
unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto
Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And
being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one] like unto
the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and
girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
1:14 His head and his] hairs were] white like wool, as white as
snow; and his eyes were] as a flame of fire;
1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a
furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars:and out of his
mouth went a sharp twoedged sword:and his countenance was] as
the sun shineth in his strength.
1:17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he
laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the
first and the last:
1:18 I am] he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am
alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
1:19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things
which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my
right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars
are the angels of the seven churches:and the seven candlesticks
which thou sawest are the seven churches.
2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things
saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who
walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
2:2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how
thou canst not bear them which are evil:and thou hast tried them
which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them
liars:
2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake
hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat] against thee, because thou
hast left thy first love.
2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent,
and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly,
and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou
repent.
2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the
Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of
the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
2:8 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These
things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is
alive;
2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, but thou
art rich) and I know] the blasphemy of them which say they are
Jews, and are not, but are] the synagogue of Satan.
2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer:behold,
the devil shall cast some] of you into prison, that ye may be
tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days:be thou faithful
unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the
second death.
2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These
things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;
2:13 I know thy works and where thou dwellest, even] where
Satan's seat is]:and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not
denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was] my
faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast
there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to
cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat
things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the
Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate.
2:16 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will
fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of
the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the
stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that
receiveth it].
2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These
things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame
of fire, and his feet are] like fine brass;
2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and
thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be] more than the
first.
2:20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because
thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a
prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit
fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she
repented not.
2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit
adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of
their deeds.
2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the
churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and
