Then in a loud voice they cried out, "Holy and true Master, how long will you refrain from charging and avenging our blood upon the inhabitants of the earth?"

"To the messenger of the church in Philadelphia write: 'The Holy and True One, who carries the keys of David, who opens and no one can shut, who shuts and no one can open, speaks as follows:

because His judgments are true and just. Because He has passed judgment on the notorious prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality, and for the blood of His slaves He has taken vengeance upon her!"

And will not God give justice and protection to His chosen people who continue to cry to Him day and night, since He is so patient with them?

The heathen were enraged, but now your anger has come, and the time for the dead to be judged, and for you to reward your slaves the prophets and your people, great and small, who revere your name, and to destroy the destroyers of the earth."

for these are the days of vengeance when all that is written in the Scriptures will be fulfilled.

Stop taking revenge on one another, beloved, but leave a place for God's anger, for the Scripture says, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will pay them back, says the Lord."

indeed, it is right for God to repay with crushing sorrows those who cause you these crushing sorrows,

to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood which speaks a better message than even Abel's did.

Because you have kept my message with the patient endurance that I give you, I also will keep you from the time of testing that is about to come upon the whole world, to test the inhabitants of the earth.

And they were singing the song of Moses, the slave of God, and the song of the Lamb: "Great and wonderful are your works, Lord God, Almighty One; upright and true your ways, O King of the ages.

Then I heard the angel of the waters say: "You are just in passing such a sentence, you who are and were, you the Holy One.

Celebrate over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets too, because God has taken vengeance on her for you."

in her has been found the blood of prophets, saints, and all who have been slaughtered on the earth."
