Revelation 1

1The RevelationG602 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, which GodG2316 gaveG1325 him to showG1166 unto his servantsG1401, evenG2532 the thingsG3739 which must shortly comeG1096 to passG1096: and he sentG649 and signified it by his angelG32 unto his servantG1401 JohnG2491; 2who bare witnessG3140 of the wordG3056 of GodG2316, and of the testimonyG3141 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, evenG2532 of all thingsG3739 that he sawG3708. 3Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hearG191 the wordsG3056 of the prophecyG4394, and keepG5083 the things that are writtenG1125 therein: for the timeG2540 is at hand.

4JohnG2491 to the sevenG2033 churchesG1577 that areG1510 in AsiaG773: GraceG5485 to you and peaceG1515, from him who isG1510 and who wasG1510 and who isG1510 to comeG2064; and from the sevenG2033 SpiritsG4151 that areG1510 before his throneG2362; 5and from JesusG2424 ChristG5547, who isthe faithfulG4103 witnessG3144, the firstbornG4416 of the deadG3498, and the rulerG758 of the kingsG935 of the earthG1093. Unto him that loveth us, and loosedG3089 us from our sinsG266 by his bloodG129; 6and he madeG4160 us to be a kingdomG932, to be priestsG2409 unto his GodG2316 and FatherG3962; to him be the gloryG1391 and the dominionG2904 for ever and ever. AmenG281. 7BeholdG2400, he cometh with the cloudsG3507; and every eyeG3788 shall seeG3708 him, and they that pierced him; and all the tribesG5443 of the earthG1093 shall mournG2875 over him. EvenG2532 so, AmenG281.

8I amG1510 the Alpha and the OmegaG5598, saith the LordG2962 GodG2316, who isG1510 and who wasG1510 and who isG1510 to comeG2064, the AlmightyG3841.

9I JohnG2491, your brotherG80 and partaker with you in the tribulationG2347 and kingdomG932 and patiencewhich arein JesusG2424, was in the isle that is calledG2564 Patmos, for the wordG3056 of GodG2316 and the testimonyG3141 of JesusG2424. 10I was in the SpiritG4151 on the Lord’s dayG2250, and I heardG191 behind me a greatG3173 voiceG5456, as of a trumpetG4536 11sayingG3004, What thou seest, writeG1125 in a bookG975 and sendG3992 it to the sevenG2033 churchesG1577: unto EphesusG2181, and unto SmyrnaG4667, and unto PergamumG4010, and unto ThyatiraG2363, and unto SardisG4554, and unto PhiladelphiaG5359, and unto LaodiceaG2993. 12And I turnedG1994 to seeG3708 the voiceG5456 that spake with me. And having turnedG1994 I sawG3708 sevenG2033 goldenG5552 candlesticks; 13and in the midstG3319 of the candlesticks one like unto a sonG5207 of manG444, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about at the breastsG3149 with a goldenG5552 girdle. 14And his headG2776 and his hairG2359 were whiteG3022 as whiteG3022 woolG2053, whiteG3022 as snowG5510; and his eyesG3788 were as a flameG5395 of fireG4442; 15and his feetG4228 like unto burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnaceG2575; and his voiceG5456 as the voiceG5456 of manyG4183 watersG5204. 16And he had in his rightG1188 handG5495 sevenG2033 starsG792: and out of his mouthG4750 proceeded a sharpG3691 two-edged swordG4501: and his countenance was as the sunG2246 shineth in his strength. 17And whenG3753 I sawG3708 him, I fellG4098 at his feetG4228 as oneG3588 deadG3498. And he laidG5087 his rightG1188 handG1188 upon me, sayingG3004, FearG5399 not; I amG1510 the firstG4413 and the lastG2078, 18and the LivingG2198 oneG3588; and I wasG1510 deadG3498, and beholdG2400, I amG1510 aliveG2198 for evermore, and I have the keysG2807 of deathG2288 and of HadesG86. 19WriteG1125 thereforeG3767 the thingsG3778 which thou sawest, and the thingsG3778 which areG1510, and the thingsG3778 which shall comeG1096 to passG1096 hereafter; 20the mysteryG3466 of the sevenG2033 starsG792 which thou sawest in my rightG1188 handG1188, and the sevenG2033 goldenG5552 candlesticks. The sevenG2033 starsG792 areG1510 the angelsG32 of the sevenG2033 churchesG1577: and the sevenG2033 candlesticks areG1510 sevenG2033 churchesG1577.
