I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and I heard a loud voice behind me, like a trumpet,

I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

saying, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.

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.

Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and when I turned, I saw seven golden lampstands.

And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;

And among the lampstands was one like the Son of Man, dressed in a long robe and with a golden sash wrapped around His chest.

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.

His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes were like a fiery flame.

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

His feet were like fine bronze as it is refined in a furnace, and His voice was like the sound of rushing waters.

And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.

He held seven stars in His right hand, a sharp double-edged sword came from His mouth, and His face shone like the sun in its full brilliance.

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.

When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as though dead. Then He placed His right hand on me and said, 'Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last,

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:

'the living One. I was dead, but look, I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.'

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.

Write down what you have seen, what is, and what will take place after this.

Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;

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

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.
