Revelation 2

“To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: “He who holds the seven stars in his right hand, he who walks among the seven golden lamp stands says these things:

To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, he that walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks:

“I know your works, and your toil and perseverance, and that you can’t tolerate evil men, and have tested those who call themselves apostles, and they are not, and found them false.

I know thy works, and thy toil and patience, and that thou canst not bear evil men, and didst try them that call themselves apostles, and they are not, and didst find them false;

You have perseverance and have endured for my name’s sake, and have not grown weary.

and thou hast patience and didst bear for my name’s sake, and hast not grown weary.

But I have this against you, that you left your first love.

But I have this against thee, that thou didst leave thy first love.

Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I am coming to you swiftly, and will move your lamp stand out of its place, unless you repent.

Remember therefore whence thou art fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I come to thee, and will move thy candlestick out of its place, except thou repent.

But this you have, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

But this thou hast, that thou hatest the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, to him will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.

“To the angel of the assembly in Smyrna write: “The first and the last, who was dead, and has come to life says these things:

And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write: These things saith the first and the last, who was dead, and lived again:

“I know your works, oppression, and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

I know thy tribulation, and thy poverty (but thou art rich), and the blasphemy of them that say they are Jews, and they are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

Don’t be afraid of the things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you will have oppression for ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.

Fear not the things which thou art about to suffer: behold, the devil is about to cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He who overcomes won’t be harmed by the second death.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

“To the angel of the assembly in Pergamum write: “He who has the sharp two-edged sword says these things:

And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: These things saith he that hath the sharp two-edged sword:

“I know your works and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. You hold firmly to my name, and didn’t deny my faith in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

I know where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s throne is; and thou holdest fast my name, and didst not deny my faith, even in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwelleth.

But I have a few things against you, because you have there some who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to throw a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit sexual immorality.

But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there some that hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.

So also you likewise have some who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.

So hast thou also some that hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans in like manner.

Repent therefore, or else I am coming to you quickly and I will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.

Repent therefore; or else I come to thee quickly, and I will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows but he who receives it.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, to him will I give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and upon the stone a new name written, which no one knoweth but he that receiveth it.

“To the angel of the assembly in Thyatira write: “The Son of God, who has his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like burnished brass, says these things:

And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like unto burnished brass:

“I know your works, your love, faith, service, patient endurance, and that your last works are more than the first.

I know thy works, and thy love and faith and ministry and patience, and that thy last works are more than the first.

But I have this against you, that you tolerate your woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. She teaches and seduces my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat things sacrificed to idols.

But I have this against thee, that thou sufferest the woman Jezebel, who calleth herself a prophetess; and she teacheth and seduceth my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.

I gave her time to repent, but she refuses to repent of her sexual immorality.

And I gave her time that she should repent; and she willeth not to repent of her fornication.

Behold, I will throw her and those who commit adultery with her into a bed of great oppression, unless they repent of her works.

Behold, I cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of her works.

I will kill her children with Death, and all the assemblies will know that I am he who searches the minds and hearts. I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.

And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he that searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto each one of you according to your works.

But to you I say, to the rest who are in Thyatira—as many as don’t have this teaching, who don’t know what some call ‘the deep things of Satan’—to you I say, I am not putting any other burden on you.

But to you I say, to the rest that are in Thyatira, as many as have not this teaching, who know not the deep things of Satan, as they are wont to say; I cast upon you none other burden.

Nevertheless, hold that which you have firmly until I come.

Nevertheless that which ye have, hold fast till I come.

He who overcomes, and he who keeps my works to the end, to him I will give authority over the nations.

And he that overcometh, and he that keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give authority over the nations:

He will rule them with a rod of iron, shattering them like clay pots, as I also have received of my Father;

and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of the potter are broken to shivers; as I also have received of my Father:

and I will give him the morning star.

and I will give him the morning star.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
