\par }{\PP \VS{2}which bare witnessing to the word of God, and
{\SLS{(to the)}} witnessing of Jesus Christ, in these things, whatever things he saw.
{\SLS{(who testified to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, in these things, whatever he saw.)}}

\par }{\PP \VS{4}John to the seven churches, that be in Asia, grace and peace
{\SLS{(be)}} to you, of him that is, and that was, and that is to coming
{\ADD{[or that is to come]}}; and of the seven spirits, that be in the sight of his throne;

{\SLS{(or who is a faithful witness)}}, the first begotten of dead men
{\ADD{[or the first begotten of
{\SLS{(the)}} dead]}}, and
{\SLS{(the)}} prince of
{\SLS{(the)}} kings of the earth; which loved us, and washed us from our sins in his blood,

{\EM{be}} glory and empire into worlds of worlds
{\SLS{(or to him

\par }{\PP \VS{8}I am alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord God, that is, and that was, and that is to coming

{\SLS{(I am Alpha and Omega, the Source and the Fulfillment, saith the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{9}I, John, your brother, and partner in tribulation, and kingdom, and patience in Christ Jesus, was in an isle, that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the witnessing of Jesus.
{\SLS{(I, John, your brother, and partner in suffering, and kingdom, and patience, or endurance, in the Messiah Jesus, was on an island called Patmos, because of the word of God, and because of my testimony about Jesus.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{10}I was in
{\SLS{(the)}} Spirit in the Lord’s day
{\ADD{[or in the Sunday]}}, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trump,
{\SLS{(I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, or on a Sunday, and I heard a loud voice behind me, like the sound of a trumpet,)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{11}saying
{\EM{to me}}, Write thou in a book that thing that thou seest, and send to the seven churches that be in Asia; to Ephesus, to Smyrna, and to Pergamos
{\SLS{(or to Pergamum)}}, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}And I turned, that I should see the voice that spake with me,
{\SLS{(or And I turned, so that I could see who spoke to me)}}; and I turned, and I saw seven candlesticks of gold,


\par }{\PP \VS{13}and in the middle of the seven golden candlesticks one like to the Son of man, clothed with a long garment, and girded at the teats with a golden girdle,
{\SLS{(or and girded at the breast with a golden girdle, or and with a gold band around his chest)}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{14}And the head of him and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow; and the eyes of him as
{\SLS{(a)}} flame of fire,


\par }{\PP \VS{15}and his feet like to latten
{\ADD{[or like the dross of gold]}}, as in a burning chimney; and the voice of him as the voice of many waters.
{\SLS{(and his feet were like latten, or the dross of gold, like in a furnace; and his voice was like the sound of many waters.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{16}And he had in his right hand seven stars, and a sword sharp on ever either side went out of his mouth
{\ADD{[or and a sword sharp on both sides went out of his mouth]}}; and his face as the sun shineth in his virtue
{\SLS{(or and his face shone like the sun in its strength)}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}And when I had seen him, I felled down at his feet, as dead. And he putted his right hand on me, and said, Do not thou dread
{\SLS{(or Do not fear)}}; I am the first and the last;


\par }{\PP \VS{18}and I am alive, and I was dead; and lo! I am living into worlds of worlds,
{\SLS{(or and behold! I shall remain alive forever and ever)}}, and I have the keys of death and of hell.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}Therefore write thou which things thou hast seen, and which be, and which it behooveth to be done after these things.


\par }{\PP \VS{20}The sacrament of the seven stars
{\ADD{[or The mystery of
{\SLS{(the)}} seven stars]}}, which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks; the seven stars be
{\ADD{[the]}} angels of the seven churches, and the seven candlesticks be
{\ADD{[the]}} seven churches.




\par }\Chap{CHAPTER 2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And to the angel of the church of Ephesus write thou, These things saith he, that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, which walketh in the middle
{\ADD{[or in the midst]}} of the seven golden candlesticks
{\SLS{(or who walketh in the midst of the seven gold candlesticks)}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}I know thy works, and thy travail
{\ADD{[or thy toil]}}, and thy patience, and that thou mayest not suffer evil men,
{\SLS{(or I know of thy works, and thy labour, and thy endurance, and that thou cannot allow or tolerate evil men)}}; and thou hast assayed them that say that they be apostles, and be not, and thou hast found them
{\SLS{(to be)}} liars;


\par }{\PP \VS{3}and thou hast patience
{\SLS{(or and thou hast endured)}}, and thou hast suffered for my name
{\ADD{[or and thou hast sustained for my name]}}, and failedest not.


\par }{\PP \VS{4}But I have against thee a few things, that thou hast left thy first charity.
{\SLS{(But I have a few things against thee, yea, that thou hast left thy first love.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{5}Therefore be thou mindful from whence thou hast fallen, and do penance, and do the first works; or else, I shall come soon to thee, and I shall move thy candlestick from his place,
{\ADD{[no]}} but thou do penance.
{\SLS{(And so remember from where thou hast fallen, and repent, and do again the first works; or else, I shall come soon to thee, and I shall remove thy candlestick from its place, unless thou repent.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{6}But thou hast this good thing, that thou hatedest the deeds of
{\SLS{(the)}} Nicolaitanes
{\SLS{(or the Nicolaitans)}}, which also I hate.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, I shall give to eat of the tree of life, that is in the paradise of my God.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}And to the angel of the church of Smyrna write thou, These things saith the first and the last, that was dead, and liveth.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}I know thy tribulation, and thy poverty, but thou art rich; and thou art blasphemed of them, that say, that they be Jews, and be not, but be the synagogue of Satan.
{\SLS{(I know thy suffering, and thy poverty, even though thou art rich; and thou art blasphemed by those, who say, that they be Jews, and be not, but be Satan’s synagogue.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{10}Dread thou nothing of these things, which thou shalt suffer. Lo! the devil shall send some of you into prison, that ye be tempted
{\ADD{[or that ye be proved]}}; and ye shall have tribulation
{\SLS{(for)}} ten days. Be thou faithful to the death, and
{\SLS{(then)}} I shall give to thee a crown of life.
{\SLS{(Fear none of the things, which thou shalt suffer. Behold! the Devil shall send some of you into prison, so that ye can be tested; and ye shall suffer for ten days. But be faithful unto death, and then I shall give thee a crown of life.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{11}He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches. He that overcometh, shall not be hurt of the second death,
{\SLS{(or He who shall overcome, shall not be hurt by the second death)}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}And to the angel of the church of Pergamos
{\SLS{(or of Pergamum)}}, write thou, These things saith he, that hath the sword sharp on either side
{\ADD{[or on each side]}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}I know where thou dwellest, where the seat of Satan is
{\SLS{(or where Satan’s throne is)}}; and thou holdest my name, and deniedest not my faith. And in those days
{\EM{was}} Antipas, my faithful witness, that was slain at you
{\SLS{(or who was killed there before you)}}, where Satan dwelleth.


\par }{\PP \VS{14}But I have against thee a few things; for thou hast there men holding the teaching of Balaam, which taught Balac to send
{\SLS{(a)}} cause of stumbling before the sons of Israel
{\SLS{(or who taught Balak to put a cause of stumbling before the Israelites)}}, to eat of
{\SLS{(the)}} sacrifices of idols, and to do fornication;


\par }{\PP \VS{15}so also thou hast men holding the teaching of
{\SLS{(the)}} Nicolaitanes.
{\SLS{(and thou hast men who believe and follow the teaching of the Nicolaitans.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{16}Also do thou penance
{\SLS{(or And so repent)}}; if anything less, I shall come soon to thee, and I shall fight with them with the sword of my mouth.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh I shall give angel meat hid
{\ADD{[or manna]}}; and I shall give to him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth, but he that taketh
{\ADD{[it]}},
{\SLS{(or and I shall give him a white stone, and a new name written on the stone, which no man knoweth, but he who receiveth
{\EM{it}})}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}And to the angel of the church of Thyatira write thou, These things saith the Son of God, that hath eyes as
{\SLS{(the)}} flame of fire, and his feet like latten,
{\SLS{(or who hath eyes like fiery flames, and his feet be like latten,
{\EM{or like the dross of gold}})}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}I know thy works, and
{\SLS{(thy)}} faith, and charity
{\SLS{(or thy love)}}, and thy service, and thy patience, and thy last works
{\SLS{(be)}} more than the former
{\SLS{(or greater than thy first works)}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{20}But I have against thee a few things; for thou sufferest the woman Jezebel, which saith that she is a prophetess,
{\SLS{(or for thou hast allowed the woman Jezebel, who saith that she is a prophetess)}}, to teach and deceive my servants, to do lechery, and to eat of things offered to idols.


\par }{\PP \VS{21}And I gave to her time, that she should do penance, and she would not do penance of her fornication.
{\SLS{(And I gave her time, so that she would repent, but she would not repent of her fornication, or of her idolatry, or her immorality.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{22}And lo! I send her into a bed, and they that do lechery with her shall be in most tribulation,
{\ADD{[no]}} but they do penance of her works.
{\SLS{(And behold! I shall send her into a bed, and those who do lechery with her shall suffer greatly, unless they repent of their works.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{23}And I shall slay her sons into death, and all
{\SLS{(the)}} churches shall know, that I am searching reins and hearts; and I shall give to each man of you after his works.


\par }{\PP \VS{24}And I say to you, and to
{\SLS{(the)}} others that be at Thyatira, whoever have not this teaching, and that knew not the highness of Satan, how they say, I shall not send on you another charge
{\SLS{(or I shall not put another burden upon you)}};


\par }{\PP \VS{25}nevertheless hold ye
{\SLS{(onto)}} that that ye have, till I come.


\par }{\PP \VS{26}And to him that shall overcome, and that shall keep till into the end my works, I shall give power on folks,
{\SLS{(And to him who shall overcome, and who shall continue doing my works unto the end, I shall give power over the nations and the peoples,)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{27}and he shall govern them in an iron rod
{\SLS{(or and he shall govern them with an iron rod)}}; and they shall be broken
{\SLS{(al)}}together, as a vessel of a potter, as also I received of
{\SLS{(or from)}} my Father;


\par }{\PP \VS{28}and I shall give to him a morrow star.


\par }{\PP \VS{29}He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches.




\par }\Chap{CHAPTER 3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And to the angel of the church of Sardis write thou, These things saith he, that hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars. I know thy works, for thou hast a name, that thou livest, and thou art dead.


\par }{\PP \VS{2}Be thou waking,
{\SLS{(or Wake up, or Be on guard)}}, and confirm thou
{\SLS{(the)}} other things, that were to dying; for I find not thy works full
{\SLS{(or finished)}} before my God.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}Therefore have thou in mind, how thou receivedest, and heardest; and keep, and do penance. Therefore if thou wake not, I shall come as a night thief to thee, and thou shalt not know in what hour I shall come to thee.
{\SLS{(And so remember, how thou hast received it, and hast heard it; and so obey it, and repent. And if thou do not wake up, or be on guard, I shall come to thee like a thief in the night, and thou shalt not know in what hour I shall come to thee.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{4}But thou hast a few names in Sardis, which have not defouled their clothes,
{\SLS{(or But thou hast a few people in Sardis, who have not defiled their clothes)}}; and they shall walk with me in white clothes, for they be worthy.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}He that overcometh, shall be clothed thus with white clothes; and I shall not do away his name from the book of life, and I shall acknowledge his name before my Father, and before his angels.


\par }{\PP \VS{6}He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}And to the angel of the church of Philadelphia write thou, These things saith the holy and
{\SLS{(the)}} true
{\SLS{(one)}}, that hath the key of David; which openeth, and no man closeth, he closeth, and no man openeth.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}I know thy works, and lo! I gave before thee a door opened, which no man may close; for thou hast a little virtue, and hast kept my word, and deniedest not my name.
{\SLS{(I know thy works, and behold! I have put before thee an open door, which no one can close; for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and deniedest not my name.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{9}Lo! I shall give to thee
{\SLS{(those)}} of the synagogue of Satan, which say that they be Jews
{\SLS{(or who say that they be Jews)}}, and be not, but lie. Lo! I shall make them,
{\SLS{(so)}} that they come, and worship before thy feet; and they shall know, that I loved thee,


\par }{\PP \VS{10}for thou keptest the word of my patience. And I shall keep thee from the hour of temptation, that is to coming into all the world
{\ADD{[or that is to come into all the world]}}, to tempt men that dwell in earth.
{\SLS{(because thou hast obeyed my word and endured, or because thou hast obeyed my word to endure. And I shall keep thee from the hour of testing, that is to come into all the world, to test those who live on the earth.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{11}Lo! I come soon; hold thou that that thou hast,
{\SLS{(so)}} that no man take thy crown.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}And him that shall overcome, I shall make
{\SLS{(him)}} a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall no more go out; and I shall write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, of the new Jerusalem, that cometh down from
{\SLS{(the)}} heaven of my God, and my new name.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches.


\par }{\PP \VS{14}And to the angel of the church of Laodicea write thou, These things saith
{\SLS{(the)}} Amen, the faithful witness and
{\SLS{(the)}} true
{\SLS{(one)}}, which is
{\SLS{(the)}} beginning of God’s creature{\SLS{(s)}},
{\SLS{(or who is the beginning, or the Source, of all of God’s Creation)}}.


\par }{\PP \VS{15}I know thy works, for neither thou art cold, neither
{\EM{thou art}} hot; I would
{\SLS{(like)}} that thou were cold, either hot;


\par }{\PP \VS{16}but for thou art lukewarm, and neither cold, neither hot, I shall begin to cast thee
{\ADD{[or to vomit thee]}} out of my mouth.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}For thou sayest, That I am rich, and full of goods, and have need of nothing; and thou knowest not, that thou art a wretch, and wretchful
{\ADD{[or and wretched]}}, and poor, and blind, and naked.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}I counsel thee to buy of me burnt gold
{\SLS{(or I counsel thee to buy from me gold which was refined in the fire)}},
{\SLS{(so)}} that thou be made rich, and be clothed with white clothes,
{\SLS{(so)}} that the confusion
{\ADD{[or the shame]}} of thy nakedness be not seen; and anoint thine eyes with a collyrium,
{\EM{that is, a medicine for
{\SLS{(the)}} eyes, gathered of
{\SLS{(or from)}} diverse herbs}},
{\SLS{(so)}} that thou
{\SLS{(can)}} see.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}I reprove, and chastise whom I love; therefore
{\SLS{(pur)}}sue thou
{\EM{good men}}, and do penance.
{\SLS{(I rebuke, and chastise whom I love; and so pursue the
{\EM{good}}, and repent.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{20}Lo! I stand at the door, and knock; if any man heareth my voice, and openeth the gate to me, I shall enter to him, and sup with him, and he with me.


\par }{\PP \VS{21}And I shall give to him that shall overcome, to sit with me in
{\SLS{(or on)}} my throne, as also I overcame, and sat with my Father in
{\SLS{(or on)}} his throne.

{\SLS{(After these things I saw, and behold! a door was opened in heaven. And the voice like a trumpet, that I had heard before,
{\EM{(was)}} speaking to me, and it said, Come up here, and I shall show thee what it behooveth to be done next.)}}


\par }{\PP \VS{2}And anon I was in
{\SLS{(the)}} Spirit, and lo! a seat was set in heaven, and upon the seat
{\EM{one}} sitting.
{\SLS{(And at once I was in the Spirit, and behold! there was a throne in heaven, and

\par }{\PP \VS{9}And they sung a new song, and said, Lord our God, thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals of it; for thou were slain, and again-boughtest us to God in thy blood, of each lineage, and tongue, and people, and nation,
