Revelation 22:6-16 - The Time Of Fulfillment Is Near

6 the angel then said, "these sayings are certain and true. the Lord God of the holy prophets has sent his angel to shew his servants what must shortly happen.

7 I shall soon come: happy is he that attends to the prophecies of this book."

8 I John saw these things, and heard them. and when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel, who shewed me these things. 9 but he said to me, "forbear, I am the servant of God, as you are, and your brethren the prophets, and those who observe the words of this book: worship God." 10 He subjoin'd, "don't seal the prophetic discourses of this book: for the time draws nigh. 11 he that is unjust, let him be unjust still: he that is filthy, let him be filthy still: he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

12 behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

14 blessed are they who wash their robes, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city." 15 "but without are the execrable, the poisoners, the licentious, the murderers, the idolaters, and all who are pleas'd with, or practise deceit.

16 "I Jesus have sent my angel to testify these things to the churches. I am the shoot, the offspring of David, the splendid morning star.
