And he laid his right hand on me, saying to me, Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last: 18 I am he who lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive forevermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. 19 Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this; 20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks.
