Revelation 2:12-17 “And write this to the angel of the church at Pergamum: These are the words of Him who has the sharp double-edged sword:

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² “And write [this] to the angel of the church at Pergamum: These are the words of Him who has the sharp double-edged sword: ¹³ I know where you are living; [it is] where Satan’s throne is. And [I know] that you are holding on firmly to my name, and did not deny [your] faith in me, even in the days of my faithful witness Antipas [Note: The Greek word here for witness is “martyr”], who was killed there where you are, where Satan lives. ¹⁴ “But I have a few things against you because you have people there [in the church] who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to place a stumblingblock in front of the Israelites, [causing them] to eat food sacrificed to idols and to be sexually immoral [See Num. 23-24]. ¹⁵ And in the same way, you also have some people [there] who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans [See verse 6]. ¹⁶ So, repent, or I will come to you quickly and will attack those people with the sword of my mouth. ¹⁷ “The person who has an ear should listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying to the churches. To the person who has victory [in the Christian life] I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will [also] give him a white stone with a new name written on it, which no one understands, except the one who receives it.”
