9 And he says to me, See thou not. I am thy fellow bondman, and of thy brothers the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!
10 And he says to me, Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near.
11 Let the man doing wrong still do wrong, and let the filthy man still be filthy. And let the righteous man still do righteousness, and let the holy man still be holy.
12 Behold, I come quickly, and my reward is with me to render to each man as his work will be
13 -I, the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
14 Blessed are those doing his commandments, so that their right will be to the tree of life, and they may enter in the gates into the city.
15 Outside are the dogs, and the sorcerers, and the fornicators, and the murderers, and the idolaters, and every man who loves and makes a lie.
16 I, Jesus, have sent my agent to testify these things to you for the congregations. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright, the morning star.
