Revelation 1:9-17

9I JohnG2491, your brotherG80 and fellow-partaker in the tribulationG2347 and kingdomG932 and patience, in JesusG2424, was in the islandG3520 calledG2564 Patmos, for the wordG3056 of 1GodG2316, and for the testimonyG3141 of JesusG2424.

10I becameG1096 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 to the sevenG2033 assemblies: to EphesusG2181, and to SmyrnaG4667, and to Pergamos, and to ThyatiraG2363, and to SardisG4554, and to PhiladelphiaG5359, and to LaodiceaG2993.

12And I turnedG1994 backG1994 to seeG3708 the voiceG5456 which spokeG2980 with me; and having turnedG1994, I sawG3708 sevenG2033 goldenG5552 lamps,

13and in the midstG3319 of the [seven] lamps [one] like [the] SonG5207 of manG444, clothed with a garment reaching to the feet, and girt about at the breastsG3149 with a goldenG5552 girdle:

14his headG2776 and hairG2359 whiteG3022 like whiteG3022 woolG2053, as snowG5510; and his eyesG3788 as a flameG5395 of fireG4442;

15and his feetG4228 like fine brass, as burningG4448 in a furnaceG2575; and his voiceG5456 as the voiceG5456 of manyG4183 watersG5204;

16and having in his rightG1188 handG5495 sevenG2033 starsG792; and out of his mouthG4750 a sharpG3691 two-edged swordG4501 goingG1607 forthG1607; and his countenance as the sunG2246 shinesG5316 in its powerG1411.

17And whenG3753 I sawG3708 him I fellG4098 at his feetG4228 as deadG3498; and he laidG5087 his rightG1188 handG1188 upon me, sayingG3004, FearG5399 not; I amG1510 the firstG4413 and the lastG2078,
