The
Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto
him, to shew unto his servants things which must
shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified
it by his angel unto his servant John:
02 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the
testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that
he saw.
03 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear
the words of this prophecy, and keep those things
which are written therein: for the time is at
hand.
04 John to the seven churches which are in Asia:
Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is,
and which was, and which is to come; and from the
seven Spirits which are before his throne;
05 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful
witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and
the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him
that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his
own blood,
06 And hath made us kings and priests unto God
and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for
ever and ever. Amen.
07 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye
shall see him, and they also which pierced him:
and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because
of him. Even so, Amen.
08 I am Alpha and Omega, the
beginning and the ending, saith the
Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to
come, the Almighty.
09 I John, who also am your brother, and
companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and
patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is
called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the
testimony of Jesus Christ.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and
heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

11 Saying, I am
Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and,
What thou seest, write in a book, and send it
unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto
Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and
unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto
Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
12 And I turned to see the voice
that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven
golden candlesticks;
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one
like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment
down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a
golden girdle.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool,
as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of
fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they
burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound
of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and
out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and
his countenance was as the sun shineth in his
strength.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as
dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying
unto me, Fear not; I am the first
and the last:
18 I am he that liveth, and
was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore,
Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
19 Write the things which
thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the
things which shall be hereafter;
20 The mystery of the seven
stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the
seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are
the angels of the seven churches: and the seven
candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven
churches.
