And unto the angel of the Church in Smyrna, write. These are the words of the First and the Last, he who died and has returned to life.

Fear not what you are about to suffer! Behold, the devil is indeed going to put some of you in prison, that you may be tested, and you will have persecution for ten days. Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.

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

He who overcomes shall thus be clad in white raiment; and I will in no wise blot out his name from the book of life, and I will own his name before my Father, and before his angels.

And after three days and a half the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell upon them.

And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb, And by the word of their testimony; And they loved not their life, even unto death.

So he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle (those who live in his tabernacle in heaven).

and each one whose name has not been written in the Lamb's book of life, the Lamb who has been slain from the foundation of the world. All who dwell on the earth shall worship him.

And he deceives those who dwell on the earth, because of the miracles, which he is permitted to perform in the sight of the beast. He tells those who live on the earth to make an image to the beast who had the sword-stroke, yet lived.

with whom the kings of the earth have committed adultery, while all who live on the earth have been made drunken by the wine of her immorality."

The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the bottomless pit, and to go into perdition. And those who dwell on the earth shall wonder, those whose names have never, from the foundation of the world, been written in the Lamb's Book of Life, when they gaze on the beast; how he was and is not, and is to come.

The rest of the dead did not live until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection.

And he showed me the river of the Water of Life, clear as crystal, Flowing out from the throne of God, and of the Lamb,

In the middle of the broad street of the City. On each side of the river was a Tree of Life, Bearing twelve kinds of fruit, Each month yielding its own fruit. And the leaves of the tree Were for the healing of the nations.

"Blessed are they who wash their robes, so that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in by the gates into the City.

Without are the dogs, the sorcerers, the immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and all who live and make a lie.

"And the Spirit and the Bride say 'Come!' And let him who hears, say 'Come!' And let him who thirsts, come; And whoever wills, let him take the Water of Life freely."

and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the Tree of Life, and in the Holy City, about which this book is written.
