1:12. And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being
turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks:
1:13. And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the
Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the
paps with a golden girdle.
1:14. And his head and his hairs were white as white wool and as snow.
And his eyes were as a flame of fire:
1:15. And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And
his voice as the sound of many waters.
1:16. And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came
out a sharp two-edged sword. And his face was as the sun shineth in his
power.
1:17. And when I had seen him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid
his right hand upon me, saying: Fear not. I am the First and the Last,
1:18. And alive, and was dead. And behold I am living for ever and ever
and have the keys of death and of hell.
1:19. Write therefore the things which thou hast seen: and which are:
and which must be done hereafter.
1:20. 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 are the seven churches.
Apocalypse Chapter 2
Directions what to write to the angels or bishops of Ephesus, Smyrna,
Pergamus and Thyatira.
2:1. Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write: These things saith
he who holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the
midst of the seven golden candlesticks:
2:2. I know thy works and thy labour and thy patience and how thou canst
not bear them that are evil. And thou hast tried them who say they are
apostles and are not: and hast found them liars:
2:3. And thou hast patience and hast endured for my name and hast not
fainted.
2:4. But I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first
charity.
2:5. Be mindful therefore from whence thou art fallen: and do penance
and do the first works. Or else I come to thee and will move thy
candlestick out of its place, except thou do penance.
2:6. But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaites,
which I also hate.
2:7. He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith to the
churches: To him that overcometh I will give to eat of the tree of life
which is in the paradise of my God.
2:8. And to the angel of the church of Smyrna write: These things saith
the First and the Last, who was dead and is alive:
2:9. I know thy tribulation and thy poverty: but thou art rich. And
thou art blasphemed by them that say they are Jews and are not, but are
the synagogue of Satan.
2:10. Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer. Behold, the
devil will cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried: and you
shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death: and I will
give thee the crown of life.
2:11. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the
churches: He that shall overcome shall not be hurt by the second death.
2:12. And to the angel of the church of Pergamus write: These things
saith he that hath the sharp two-edged sword:
2:13. I know where thou dwellest, where the seat of Satan is. And thou
holdest fast my name and hast not denied my faith. Even in those days
when Antipas was my faithful witness, who was slain among you, where
Satan dwelleth.
