Revelation 2:13-16
13‘I knowG3609 whereG4226 you dwellG2730, whereG3699 1Satan’sG4567 throneG2362 is; and you holdG2902 firmlyG2902 to My nameG3686, and did not denyG720 2My faithG4102 evenG2532 in the daysG2250 of AntipasG493, My 3witnessG3144, My 4faithfulG4103 oneG4103, whoG3739 was killedG615 amongG3844 you, 5whereG3699 SatanG4567 dwellsG2730.
14But 6I haveG2192 a fewG3641 thingsG3641 againstG2596 you, becauseG3754 you haveG2192 some thereG1563 who holdG2902 the 7teachingG1322 of BalaamG903, whoG3739 kept teachingG1321 BalakG904 to putG906 a 8stumblingG4625 blockG4625 beforeG1799 the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474, 9to eatG2068 thingsG1494 sacrificedG1494 toG1494 idolsG1494 and to commitG4203 sexualG4203 immoralityG4203.
15SoG3779 you tooG2532, haveG2192 some who in the sameG3668 wayG3668 holdG2902 to the teachingG1322 of the 10NicolaitansG3531.
16ThereforeG3767 11repentG3340; orG1161 elseG1490 12I am comingG2064 to you quicklyG5035, and I will wageG4170 warG4170 againstG3326 them with 13the swordG4501 of My mouthG4750.
