Revelation 2:19-24
19‘1I knowG3609 your deedsG2041, and your loveG26 and faithG4102 and serviceG1248 and 2perseveranceG5281, and that your 3deedsG2041 of lateG2078 are greaterG4183 than 4at firstG4413.
20But 5I haveG2192 this againstG2596 you, that you tolerateG863 the womanG1135 6JezebelG2403, who callsG3004 herselfG1438 a prophetessG4398, and she teachesG1321 and leadsG4105 My bond-servantsG1401 astrayG4105 so that they 7commitG4203 acts of immoralityG4203 and eatG2068 thingsG1494 sacrificedG1494 to idolsG1494.
218I gaveG1325 her timeG5550 to repentG3340, and she 9does not wantG2309 to repentG3340 of her immoralityG4202.
22BeholdG2400, I will throwG906 her 10on a bedG2825 of sickness, and thoseG3588 who 11commitG3431 adulteryG3431 with her into greatG3173 tribulationG2347, unlessG1437G3361 they repentG3340 of 12her deedsG2041.
23And I will killG615 her childrenG5043 with 13pestilenceG2288, and allG3956 the churchesG1577 will knowG1097 that I amG1510 He who 14searchesG2045 the 15mindsG3510 and heartsG2588; and 16I will giveG1325 to eachG1538 oneG1538 of you accordingG2596 to your deedsG2041.
24But I sayG3004 to you, the restG3062 who are in 17ThyatiraG2363, whoG3745 do not holdG2192 thisG3778 teachingG1322, whoG3748 have not knownG1097 the 18deepG901 thingsG901 of SatanG4567, as they callG3004 them--I 19placeG906 noG3756 otherG243 burdenG922 on you.
