Revelation 1:14-20
14His headG2776 and His 1hairG2359 were whiteG3022 likeG5613 whiteG3022 woolG2053, likeG5613 snowG5510; and 2His eyesG3788 were likeG5613 a flameG5395 of fireG4442. 15His 3feetG4228 were likeG3664 burnishedG5474 bronzeG5474, whenG5613 it has been madeG4448 to glowG4448 in a furnaceG2575, and His 4voiceG5456 was likeG5613 the soundG5456 of manyG4183 watersG5204. 16In His rightG1188 handG5495 He heldG2192 5sevenG2033 starsG792, and out of His mouthG4750 cameG1607 a 6sharpG3691 two-edgedG1366 swordG4501; and His 7faceG3799 was likeG5613 8the sunG2246 9shiningG5316 in its strengthG1411.
17WhenG3753 I sawG3708 Him, I 10fellG4098 at His feetG4228 likeG5613 a deadG3498 manG3498. And He 11placedG5087 His rightG1188 handG1188 on me, sayingG3004, “12Do not be afraidG5399; 13I amG1510 the firstG4413 and the lastG2078, 18and the 14livingG2198 One; and I 1516was deadG3498, and beholdG2400, I amG1510 aliveG2198 forevermoreG165, and I haveG2192 17the keysG2807 of deathG2288 and of HadesG86. 19ThereforeG3767 18writeG1125 19the things whichG3739 you have seenG3708, and the things whichG3739 are, and the things whichG3739 will takeG1096 placeG1096 20afterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778. 20As for the 21mysteryG3466 of the 22sevenG2033 starsG792 whichG3739 you sawG3708 in My rightG1188 handG1188, and the 23sevenG2033 goldenG5552 lampstandsG3087: the 24sevenG2033 starsG792 are the angelsG32 of 25the sevenG2033 churchesG1577, and the sevenG2033 26lampstandsG3087 are the sevenG2033 churchesG1577.
