Then I turned to see
the voice that spoke with me.
And having turned I saw
seven golden lampstands,

and in the midst of the seven lampstands
One like the Son of Man,
clothed with a garment
down to the feet
and girded about the chest
with a golden band.

His head and hair
were white like wool,
as white as snow,
and His eyes like a flame of fire;

His feet were like fine brass,
as if refined in a furnace,
and His voice as the sound
of many waters;

He had in His right hand seven stars,
out of His mouth went
a sharp two-edged sword,
and His countenance was like
the sun shining in its strength.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ,
which God gave Him
to show His servants—
things which must shortly
take place.
And He sent and signified it
by His angel to His servant John,

who bore witness
to the word of God,
and to the testimony of Jesus Christ,
to all things that he saw.

Blessed is he who reads
and those who hear
the words of this prophecy,
and keep those things
which are written in it;
for the time is near.

And when I saw Him,
I fell at His feet as dead.
But He laid His right hand on me,
saying to me, “Do not be afraid;
I am the First and the Last.

I am He who lives, and was dead,
and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys
of Hades and of Death.

Write the things
which you have seen,
and the things which are,
and the things which will take place
after this.

The mystery of the seven stars
which you saw in My right hand,
and the seven golden lampstands:
The seven stars are the angels of
the seven churches, and the seven
lampstands which you saw are the
seven churches.

John, to the seven churches
which are in Asia:
Grace to you and peace from Him
who is and who was
and who is to come,
and from the seven Spirits
who are before His throne,

and from Jesus Christ,
the faithful witness,
the firstborn from the dead,
and the ruler over the kings of the earth.
To Him who loved us
and washed us from our sins
in His own blood,

and has made us kings and priests
to His God and Father,
to Him be glory and dominion
forever and ever. Amen.

Behold, He is coming with clouds,
and every eye will see Him,
even they who pierced Him.
And all the tribes of the earth
will mourn because of Him.
Even so, Amen.

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

I, John, both your brother and companion
in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ,
was on the island that is called Patmos
for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

I was in the Spirit
on the Lord’s Day,
and I heard behind me
a loud voice,
as of a trumpet,

saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,”
and, “What you see, write in a book
and send it to the seven churches
which are in Asia:
to Ephesus, to Smyrna,
to Pergamos, to Thyatira,
to Sardis, to Philadelphia,
and to Laodicea.”
