And, when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead, and he laid his right hand upon me, saying - Do not fear! I, am the First, and the Last,

And, unto the messenger of the assembly, in Smyrna, write: - These things, saith the first and the last, who became dead, and lived:

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

And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, - seven messengers having seven plagues, the last, because, in them, was ended the wrath of God.

And there came one of the seven messengers which had the seven bowls, that were full of the seven last plagues, and spake with me, saying - Hither! I will point out to thee the bride, the wife of the Lamb.

I, am the A and the Z, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
