¹ Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things says he that holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; ² I know your works, and your labour, and your patience, and how you canst not bear them which are evil: and you have tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and have found them liars: ³ And have borne, and have patience, and for my name's sake+ have laboured, and have not fainted. ⁴ Nevertheless I have somewhat against you, because you have left your first love. ⁵ Remember therefore from where you are fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come to you quickly, and will remove your candlestick out of his place, except you repent. ⁶ But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. ⁷ He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. ⁸ And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things says the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; ⁹ I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but you are rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. ¹⁰ Fear none of those things which you will suffer: see, the devil will cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you will have tribulation ten days: be faithful to death, and I will give you a crown of life. ¹¹ He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches; He that overcomes will not be hurt of the second death. ¹² And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things says he which has the sharp sword with two edges; ¹³ I know your works, and where you dwell, even where Satan's seat is: and you hold fast my name, and have not denied my faith, even in those days in which+ Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwells. ¹⁴ But I have a few things against you, because you have there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught+ Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication. ¹⁵ So have you also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. ¹⁶ Repent; or else I will come to you quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. ¹⁷ He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives [it]. ¹⁸ And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things says the Son of God, who has his eyes like to a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass; ¹⁹ I know your works, and charity, and service, and faith, and your patience, and your works; and the last to be more than the first. ²⁰ Notwithstanding I have a few things against you, because you suffers that woman Jezebel, which calls herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols. ²¹ And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. ²² See, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. ²³ And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches will know that I am he which searches the reins and hearts: and I will give to every one of you according to your works. ²⁴ But to you I say, and to the others in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put on you none other burden. ²⁵ But that which you have already hold fast till+ I come+ . ²⁶ And he that overcomes, and keeps my works to the end, to him will I give power over the nations: ²⁷ And he will rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter will they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. ²⁸ And I will give him the morning star. ²⁹ He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
