Revelation 22:8-14

8 1I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, 2I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9And 3he said to me, “4Do not do that; I am a 5fellow servant of yours and of your brothers the prophets, and of those who 6keep the words of 7this book. Worship God!”

10And he said to me, “8Do not seal up 9the words of the prophecy of this book, 10for the time is near. 11 11Let the one who does wrong still do wrong, and the one who is filthy still be filthy; and let the one who is righteous still practice righteousness, and the one who is holy still keep himself holy.”

12“Behold, 12I am coming quickly, and My 13reward is with Me, 14to reward each one as his work 15deserves. 13I am the 16Alpha and the Omega, 17the first and the last, 18the beginning and the end.”

14Blessed are those who 19wash their robes, so that they will have the right to 20the tree of life, and may 21enter the city by the 22gates.
