Why are you standing here, looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was received up from you into heaven will be coming back thus in the manner you saw him traveling on into heaven.

¹⁰ and to await his Son Jesus from the heavens, whom he raised up from the dead; who rescues us from the coming wrath.

¹⁷ thereafter we, the living, who are left, will be taken away at the same time together with them in the clouds, to the encounter of the Lord in the air, and so we will always be together with the Lord.

⁶ and then having fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, because they are again crucifying for themselves the Son of God and disgracing him.

²⁹ How much worse punishment, do you think he will be deemed worthy of, after having trampled under foot the Son of God, and having deemed the blood of the covenant in which he was made holy as common, and having insulted the Spirit of the grace?

² Beloved, we are now the children of God and it was not yet manifested what we will be. But we know that, if he is manifested, we will be similar to him, because we will be seeing him just-as he is.

¹⁴ Now Enoch, seventh from Adam, also prophesied about these people, saying, Behold, the Lord came in among tens of thousands of his holy-ones,

¹⁵ And the kings of the earth and the great-men and the commanders and the rich and the strong and every bondservant and free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains; ¹⁶ and they say to the mountains and to the rocks, Fall upon us and hide us from the face of the one who is sitting upon the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb; ¹⁷ for the great day of his wrath has come, and who is able to stand?

¹⁴ And I saw and behold, a white cloud, and upon the cloud I saw one sitting similar to a son of man, having upon his head a golden crown and in his hand a sharp sickle. ¹⁵ And another messenger came out from the temple, crying in a loud voice to the one who sits upon the cloud, Send forth your sickle and reap, because the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is ripe. ¹⁶ And he who sits upon the cloud cast his sickle upon the earth, and the earth was reaped.

¹⁵ The merchants of these things, who were enriched from her, will be standing from afar because of the fear of her torment, while weeping and mourning. ¹⁶ And they are saying, Woe, woe, the great city, she who has been dressed in fine-linen, and purple and scarlet and has been arrayed in gold, precious stone and pearls! ¹⁷ Because in an hour so-many riches was made desolate. And every helmsman and everyone who sails any place and sailors and as many as are working from the sea, stood from afar, ¹⁸ and were crying out, seeing the smoke of her fire, saying, What city is similar to the great city? ¹⁹ And they cast dirt upon their heads and were crying, weeping and mourning and saying, Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had their ships in the sea were enriched out of her costliness! Because in one hour she was made desolate. ²⁰ Be joyous over her: heaven and the holy-ones and the apostles and the prophets, because God has judged your condemnation from her
.

¹ I heard after these things, as it was a large voice of a large crowd in heaven, saying, Hallelujah! Salvation and power and glory, is from our God: ² because true and righteous are his judgments, because he has judged the great prostitute, she who was corrupting the earth in her fornication and he has avenged the blood of his bondservants from her hand.
³ And they have said a second-time, Hallelujah. And her smoke goes up forevermore.

⁴ and they will see his face, and his name will be upon their foreheads.

¹ And when Abram was ninety-nine years old, Jehovah appeared to Abram and said to him, I am God Almighty, walk before me and you will be perfect.

³ And God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,

¹¹ And God said to him, I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will be of you and kings will come out of your loins.

¹⁴ And God Almighty give you* mercy before the man, that he may release to you* your* other brother and Benjamin. And if I be bereaved of my sons, I am bereaved.

³ And Jacob said to Joseph, God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me,

²⁵ even by the God of your father, who will help you and by the Almighty, who will bless you with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that couches beneath, blessings of the breasts and of the womb.

³ And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but I was not known by them by my name Jehovah.

⁴ he says who hears the words of God, who sees the vision of the Almighty, falling down and having his eyes open,

⁶ For to us a child is born, to us a son is given. And the government will be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Father of Eternity, Prince of Peace.

¹⁰ You* are my witnesses, says Jehovah and my servant whom I have chosen, that you* may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me there was no God formed, nor will there be after me.

⁶ Jehovah says thus, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, Jehovah of hosts: I am the first and I am the last and besides me there is no God.

¹² Listen to me, O Jacob and Israel my called: I am he. I am the first. I also am the last.

¹⁸ and will be a Father to you and you will be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.’

⁴ John to the seven congregations which are in Asia: grace to you and peace from God who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits that are in the sight of his throne;

¹⁷ And when I saw him, I fell like one dead at his feet. And he placed his right hand upon me, saying, Do not fear; I am the first and the last,

¹⁷ saying, We give-thanks to you, O Lord God, the Almighty, who are and who was, because you have taken your great power and reigned.

¹⁴ for they are spirits of demons, doing signs; which travel out to the kings of the whole inhabited-earth, to gather them together to the war of that great day of God the Almighty.

¹⁵ And a sharp two edged long-sword travels out from his mouth, in order that he might strike the nations with it and he will shepherd them with an iron rod and he tramples on the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God, the Almighty.

⁶ And he said to me, I have become the Alpha and the Omega, I am the beginning and the end. I will be giving freely to the one who is thirsty out of the spring of the water of life.

²² And I saw no temple in it; for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.

¹³ I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

³³ I have spoken to you these things, in order that you may have peace in me. You have affliction in the world, but have courage; I have overcome the world.

²² further strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to remain in the faith, and that it is essential for us through many afflictions to enter into the kingdom of God.

⁷ Everlasting life to those who indeed by endurance in good work are seeking glory and honor and incorruption. ⁸ But to those seeking things out of selfish ambition and who are indeed disobedient to the truth, but obey unrighteousness, he will repay with fury and wrath,

³ But not only in this, but we are also boasting in our afflictions, knowing that affliction is working endurance; ⁴ and endurance, approved character, and an approved character, hope;

¹⁷ and if children, then heirs; indeed, heirs of God and joint heirs of Christ; if indeed we are suffering together with him, in order that we might also be glorified together with him.

²⁵ But if we hope for what we do not see, then we are waiting for it through endurance.

⁹ For I am thinking that God has showed us, the apostles, last of all, as men doomed to death, because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to messengers and men. ¹⁰ We are foolish because of Christ, but you are prudent in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are glorious, but we are dishonored. ¹¹ We are both hungry and thirsty, till the current hour, and are naked and are battered and are homeless; ¹² and we are laboring, working with our own hands. Being reviled, we are speaking well of them; being persecuted, we are tolerating it; ¹³ being blasphemed, we are encouraging. We have become like the scums of the world, the garbage of all things, even until now.

⁷ just-as it is a righteous thing for me to be mindful of this on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the good-news, all of you being joint partners with me of the grace.

¹⁴ However you did well, having shared together with my affliction.

⁴ so-that we ourselves boast in you in the congregations of God, on behalf of your endurance and faith in all your persecutions, and in the afflictions which you are tolerating. ⁵ This is an example of the righteous judgment of God; that you may be deemed worthy of the kingdom of God, on behalf of which you are also suffering;

⁵ Now may the Lord steer your hearts into the love of God and into the endurance of the Christ.

⁸ Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor me, his prisoner, but suffer-hardship together with the good-news according to the power of God,

³ Therefore suffer evil treatment as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. ⁴ No active soldier entangles himself in the tradeoffs of this life, in order that he may please the one who enlisted him as a soldier. ⁵ And if anyone also contends in the games, he is not crowned, if he has not contended lawfully. ⁶ It is essential that the farmer who labors to receive of the fruits first. ⁷ Perceive the things I am saying; for the Lord may give you intelligence in all things. ⁸ Remember Jesus Christ, who has been raised from the dead, was born out of the seed of David, according to my good-news; ⁹ in which I am suffering evil treatment, even as far as bonds, like a criminal, but the word of God has not been bound. ¹⁰ Because of this, I endure all things, because of the chosen, in order that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with everlasting glory. ¹¹ Faithful is the word: for if we died together with him, we will also be living together with him : ¹² if we endure, we will also be reigning together with him; if we are denying him, he will also be denying us;

³⁶ For you have need of endurance, in order that, having done the will of God, you may get the promise for yourselves.

⁷ Therefore brethren, have patience until the presence of the Lord. Behold, the farmer is waiting for the precious fruit of the earth, having patience over it, until it should receive the morning and evening rainfall. ⁸ You also, have patience; establish your hearts, because the presence of the Lord has drawn near.

² who testifies of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ; as many things as he saw.

⁹ I know your works, your affliction and your poverty (but you are rich) and the blasphemy of those who saying about themselves they are Jews and they are not, but are a synagogue of the Adversary. ¹⁰ Let no one fear the things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast some from you into prison, in order that you may be tested and you will have affliction ten days. Become faithful to death and I will be giving you the crown of life.

¹⁰ Because you kept the word of my endurance, I also will be keeping you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole inhabited-earth, to test those who are dwelling upon the earth.

⁷ And whenever they completed their testimony, the beast which is ascending out of the abyss, will make war with them and overcome them and kill them.

¹⁰ If anyone holds those in captivity, he is going into captivity; if anyone kills with the sword, it is essential for him to be killed with the sword. Here is the endurance and the faith of the holy-ones.

¹² Here is the endurance of the holy-ones, those who are keeping the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

¹⁰ And I fell down before his feet to worship him. And he says to me, See that you do not do that. I am a fellow bondservant of you and of your brethren who are holding the testimony of Jesus. Worship God; for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

⁴³ He says to them, Therefore how does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

¹⁹ Therefore being evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors had been locked where the disciples were gathered because of fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the middle, and says to them, Peace to you.

²⁶ And after eight days his disciples were inside again and Thomas with them. Jesus comes, the doors having been locked and stood in the middle and said, Peace to you.

¹⁰ Now he became very hungry and wished to eat, but when those men were preparing the food, a trance fell upon him. ¹¹ And he views the heaven having opened and a certain vessel coming down, like a great sheet having been bound and being dropped down by four edges upon the earth; ¹² in which were all kinds of four footed mammals and beasts and reptiles of the earth and birds of the heaven. ¹³ And there came a voice to him, Sacrifice and eat when you stand up Peter.
¹⁴ But Peter said, Not-so, Lord, because I have never eaten anything, common or unclean.
¹⁵ And a voice came to him again the second-time, What God has cleansed, you, do not make common. ¹⁶ But this happened three-times and again the vessel was received up into heaven.
¹⁷ Now as Peter was perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might be. And behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon’s house, stood at the gate, ¹⁸ and having summoned them, they were inquiring if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, is lodged here.
¹⁹ But when Peter was contemplating concerning the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, men are seeking you. ²⁰ But when you stand up, go down and travel together with them, judging nothing, because I have sent them.
²¹ Now Peter went down to the men who were sent from Cornelius to him and said, Behold, I am he whom you are seeking. What is the cause through which you are here?
²² Now they said, Cornelius a centurion, a righteous man and fearing God, being well testified of by the whole nation of the Jews, was divinely-warned by a holy messenger to send for you to come to his house and to hear words from you. ²³ Therefore he invited them in and lodged them.


Now on the next-day Peter came out and went together with them and some of the brethren from Joppa went together with him. ²⁴ And on the next-day they entered into Caesarea. Now Cornelius was expecting them, having called together his relatives and his intimate friends. ²⁵ Now it happened, as Peter entered in, Cornelius, having met him, and having fallen down upon his feet, worshiped him. ²⁶ But Peter lifted him up, saying, Stand up; I am also a man. ²⁷ And while conversing together with him, he entered and finds many have gathered together. ²⁸ And he said to them, You yourselves know how it is an illegal thing for a man who is a Jew to be joined or to come to heathen, and yet God showed to me to speak of no man as common or unclean. ²⁹ Hence also, undeniably I came, having been sent for. Therefore I am inquiring, for what reason did you send for me?
³⁰ And Cornelius said, Four days till this hour, I was fasting and praying in the ninth hour in my house, and behold, a man stood in my sight in bright apparel, ³¹ and says, Cornelius, your prayer is heard and your charity is remembered in God’s sight. ³² Therefore send to Joppa, and call to you Simon, who is surnamed Peter; he is lodged in the house of Simon, a tanner, beside the sea. When he comes; he will be speaking to you. ³³ Therefore, promptly I sent for you, and having come, you did well. Therefore, now we are all here in God’s sight, to hear all things which have been commanded to you by God.

⁷ Now on the first day of the week, the disciples having been gathered together with us to break bread, Paul was reasoning many things with them, being about to go away on the next-day, and he was prolonging the speech till midnight.

² Every first day of the week, let each of you place beside himself, storing up, if he prospers in anything, in order that whenever I come, no collections may happen then.

² I know a man in Christ, who fourteen years before, (whether in the body, I do not know or outside of the body, I do not know; God knows), such a one was seized up to the third heaven. ³ And I know such a man (whether in the body or outside of the body, I do not know; God knows), ⁴ that he was taken away into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not legal for man to speak.

¹ I saw after these things, and behold, a door has been opened in heaven and the first voice which I heard speaking with me, a voice like that of a trumpet, saying, Come up here and I will be showing you what things are essential to happen after these things. ² And immediately I became in the spirit and behold, a throne was placed in heaven, and sitting upon the throne

³ and he cried out with a loud voice, just-like a lion roars and when he cried out, the seven thunders spoke their voices.
⁴ And when the seven thunders spoke their voices, I was about to write and I heard a voice from heaven saying, Seal up the things which the seven thunders spoke and do not write them. ⁵ And the messenger whom I saw standing upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his right hand to the heaven, ⁶ and swore by the one who lives forevermore, who created the heaven and the things in it and the earth and the things in it and the sea and the things in it–that time will be no longer delay. ⁷ But in the days of the voice of the seventh messenger, whenever he is about to sound, and the mystery of God had completed, as he proclaimed the good-news to his bondservants, the prophets. ⁸ And the voice which I heard from heaven, I heard it again speaking with me and saying, Go, take the book which has been opened in the hand of the messenger who is standing upon the sea and upon the earth.

³ And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet beast, being full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

¹⁰ And he carried me away in the spirit to a mountain great and high and showed me the great holy city Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,

¹⁹ Now therefore write this song for you* and teach you it the sons of Israel. Put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the sons of Israel.

⁸ Now go, write it before them on a tablet and inscribe it on a scroll, that it may be for the time to come until everlasting.

² Thus speaks Jehovah, the God of Israel, saying, Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book.

² And Jehovah answered me and said, Write the vision and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run who reads it.

¹⁹ Now they arrived in Ephesus and he left them there, and having entered into the synagogue, he reasoned with the Jews. ²⁰ Now they were requesting him to remain on for more time with them, he did not signal-agreement; ²¹ but he bid farewell to them, saying, It is certainly essential for me to make the coming feast in Jerusalem but I will revisit to you again, God willing. He set-sail away from Ephesus.

²⁴ Now a certain Jew, Apollos by name, from Alexandria by birth, a cultured man, arrived in Ephesus, being mighty in the Scriptures.

¹ Now it happened, that while Apollos was in Corinth, Paul, having gone through the upper-parts of the region, came to Ephesus and found some disciples. ² He said to them, Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?
But they said to him, But, we did not hear if there is a Holy Spirit.
³ And he said to them, Therefore into what were you immersed?
But they said, Into the immersion of John.
⁴ But Paul said, John indeed immersed in the immersion of repentance, saying to the people in order that they should believe in the one who is coming after him, that is, in the Christ Jesus. ⁵ Now having heard this, they were immersed into the name of the Lord Jesus. ⁶ And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they were speaking in foreign languages and were prophesying. ⁷ Now they were in all approximately twelve men.
⁸ Now having entered into the synagogue, he was speaking boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading as to the things concerning the kingdom of God. ⁹ But as some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way in the sight of the multitude, he withdrew away from them and separated the disciples, reasoning every day in the school of a certain Tyrannus. ¹⁰ Now this happened in two years; so-that all those dwelling in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks. ¹¹ And God was doing miracles (not obtainable from man) through the hands of Paul; ¹² so-that even handkerchiefs or aprons from the touch of his skin were carried away to those who were sick and the diseases were set-free from them and the evil spirits went out from them.
¹³ But also, some exorcists from the strolling Jews undertook the task to name the name of the Lord Jesus upon those who had the evil spirits, saying, We implore you on the Jesus whom Paul is preaching. ¹⁴ Now there were some (seven sons of Sceva) and a Jew, a high-priest, who were doing this.
¹⁵ But the evil spirit having answered, said to them, I know Jesus, and I know Paul, but who are you? ¹⁶ And the man in whom the evil spirit was, leaping upon them and having mastered, prevailed against them, so-that they fled out of that house, naked and traumatized.
¹⁷ Now this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, dwelling in Ephesus, and fear fell upon them all and the name of the Lord Jesus was being extolled. ¹⁸ Many of those who had also believed were coming, confessing and proclaiming their practices. ¹⁹ Now a considerable number of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and were burning them in the sight of all, and they calculated the prices of them and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver. ²⁰ So the word of the Lord was growing and prevailing in dominion.
²¹ Now as these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in the spirit to travel to Jerusalem, after having gone through Macedonia and Achaia, and said, After I have come there, it is essential for me to also see Rome. ²² Now having sent Timothy and Erastus, two of those serving him, into Macedonia, he held back in Asia for a short time.


²³ Now it happened at that time there was not just a small disturbance concerning the Way. ²⁴ For a certain man, Demetrius by name, (a silversmith making miniature silver temples of Artemis), was providing not just a small business to the craftsmen; ²⁵ whom he accumulated together the other workers of such things and said, Men, you know our prosperity is from this business. ²⁶ And you view and hear, that not only from Ephesus, but almost all of Asia, this Paul has persuaded and seduced a considerable crowd, saying that they are not gods, those born through man’s hands. ²⁷ But not only is this part for us in peril and it is to go into disrepute but also the temple of the great goddess Artemis is to be counted as nothing and her majesty is about to be demolished, what the whole of Asia and inhabited-earth is worshiping.
²⁸ Now having heard this, and having become full of fury, they were crying out, saying, Great is Artemis of Ephesus. ²⁹ And the whole city was filled with confusion and they rushed united into the theater, having seized Paul’s fellow traveling-associates, Gaius and Aristarchus, who were Macedonians. ³⁰ Now Paul was planning to enter into the public area, but the disciples were not permitting him. ³¹ But some also of those from Asia, being friends to him, and having sent for him, they were pleading with him not to give himself to the theater crowd. ³² Therefore some were crying something and others another thing; for the assembly was confused, and most did not know why they had come together. ³³ But they pushed Alexander forward out of the crowd with the Jews, casting him forward. Now Alexander, having beckoned with the hand, was wishing to make a defense to the public. ³⁴ But when they recognized that he was a Jew, one voice became out of them all for approximately two hours, crying, Great is Artemis of the Ephesians. ³⁵ But having the composure of the crowd, the town scribe says, Men of Ephesus, for what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great goddess Artemis and of the fallen image from Zeus? ³⁶ Therefore these things being undeniable, it is essential for you to possess composure and to do nothing rash. ³⁷ For you have led these men here, who are neither temple looters nor are blaspheming your goddess. ³⁸ Therefore indeed, if Demetrius and the craftsmen who are together with him have an account toward anyone, lower-courts are to be led and proconsuls are here. Let them accuse one another in them. ³⁹ But if you seek anything concerning different things, it will be interpreted in the lawful assembly. ⁴⁰ For we also are in peril to be accused concerning today’s riot, no cause exists for it and concerning it, we will not be able to give account of this conspiracy. ⁴¹ And having said these things, he dismissed the assembly.

¹⁷ Now from Miletus, he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the congregation.

³² If I quarreled with beasts in Ephesus according to the manner of man, what is the profit to me? If the dead are not raised up, ‘We should eat and drink, for the next-day we die.’

⁸ But I will be remaining in Ephesus until the Pentecost;

¹ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, to the holy-ones who are in Ephesus and the faithful in Christ Jesus:

¹⁵ Greet the brethren who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the congregation which is in his house.
¹⁶ And whenever this letter has been read before you, do forward it, in order that it should also be read in the congregation of the Laodiceans, and in order that you also should read the letter from Laodicea.

³ As I encouraged you to remain in Ephesus, when I was traveling into Macedonia, in order that you might command to some not to teach a different teaching,

¹⁹ Therefore write the things which you saw, and the things which are, and the things which are about to happen after these things.

⁴ And when the seven thunders spoke their voices, I was about to write and I heard a voice from heaven saying, Seal up the things which the seven thunders spoke and do not write them.

¹³ And I heard the voice from heaven saying to me, Write, the dead ones who die in the Lord are fortunate from now on. Yes, says the Spirit, in order that they should rest themselves from their labors, and their works follow after them.

⁹ And he says to me, Write, the fortunate ones have been invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he says to me, These are true words of God.

⁵ And he who sits upon the throne said, Behold, I am making all things new. And he says to me, Write, because these are the faithful and true words.

³⁷ And you will make the lamps of it, seven. And they will light the lamps of it, to give light in front of it.

⁵ And the Spirit took me up and brought me into the inner court, and behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.
⁶ And I heard speaking to me out of the house and a man stood by me.

⁹ The voice of Jehovah cries to the city and the man of wisdom will see your name. Hear the rod and who has appointed it.

² And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, I have seen, and behold, a lamp-stand all of gold, with its bowl upon the top of it and its seven lamps on it. There are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are upon the top of it,

¹³ And one similar to a son of man was in the middle of the seven lamp-stands. He has clothed himself with a long-robe and the breasts are girded around with a golden belt.

⁶ And they will make the ephod of gold, of blue and purple, scarlet and fine twined linen, the work of the skillful workman. ⁷ It will have two shoulder-pieces joined to the two ends of it, that it may be joined together. ⁸ And the skillfully woven band, which is upon it, with which to gird it on, will be like the work of it and of the same piece, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen.

⁵ And the skillfully woven band, that was upon it with which to gird it on, was of the same piece and like the work of it, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, as Jehovah commanded Moses.

⁷ And he put upon him the tunic and girded him with the sash and clothed him with the robe and put the ephod upon him and he girded him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod and bound it to him with it.

⁵ And righteousness will be the belt of his waist and faithfulness the belt of his loins.

²⁶ And above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone. And upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.
²⁷ And I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his loins and upward. And from the appearance of his loins and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire. And there was brightness all around him.
²⁸ As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Jehovah. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face and I heard a voice speaking.

⁹ I beheld till thrones were placed and one who was ancient of days sat. His garments was white as snow and the hair of his head like pure wool. His throne was fiery flames and the wheels of it burning fire.

⁵ I lifted up my eyes and looked. And behold, a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz. ⁶ Also his body was like the beryl and his face as the appearance of lightning and his eyes as flaming torches and his arms and his feet like burnished brass and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

¹⁶ And behold, someone in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips. Then I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who stood before me, O my lord, because of the vision my pains have turned upon me and I retain no strength.

⁷ but emptied himself, having taken the form of a bondservant, having become in the likeness of men; ⁸ and having been found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, having become obedient as far as death, and even death from a cross.

¹⁴ Therefore since the children have shared of flesh and blood, in like-manner he partook of the same; in order that through death, he might do-away-with the one who had the dominion of death, this is the devil; ¹⁵ and he might set-free these, as many as were in fear of death, who were liable to bondage throughout all their life. ¹⁶ For surely he does not help messengers, but he is helping the seed of Abraham. ¹⁷ Hence he was obligated to have been similar to his brethren according to all things, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high-priest in the things pertaining to God, that he should make atonement for the sins of the people.

¹⁵ For we do not have a high-priest who is unable to sympathize together with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted according to all things according to our likeness, yet without sin.

¹⁴ And I saw and behold, a white cloud, and upon the cloud I saw one sitting similar to a son of man, having upon his head a golden crown and in his hand a sharp sickle.

⁶ and there came out from the temple the seven messengers who had the seven wounds, they were clothing themselves with clean bright flax-linen and golden belts had been girded around their chests.

⁶ Also his body was like the beryl and his face as the appearance of lightning and his eyes as flaming torches and his arms and his feet like burnished brass and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

³ His form was like lightning and his clothing was white like snow;

¹² Now his eyes are a flame of fire and upon his head are many diadems, and he has names written which no one knows except he himself.

⁴ Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea, Jehovah on high is mighty.

¹³ The nations will rush like the rushing of many waters, but he will rebuke them. And they will flee far off and will be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind and like the whirling dust before the storm.

⁷ And their feet were straight feet and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot and they sparkled like burnished brass.

³ And he brought me there, and behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand and a measuring reed. And he stood in the gate.

² And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. And his voice was like the sound of many waters and the earth shone with his glory.

² And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters and like the voice of great thunder. And the voice which I heard was like that of harpists harping with their harps.

⁶ And I heard as it was the voice of a large crowd and like the voice of many waters and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, Hallelujah, because the Lord our God, the Almighty reigns.

⁷ when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

⁴ but with righteousness he will judge the poor and decide with equity for the meek of the earth.
And he will kill* the earth with the rod of his mouth and with the breath of his lips he will kill the wicked.

²³ Then the moon will be confounded and the sun ashamed, for Jehovah of hosts will reign in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem. And glory will be before his elders.

² And he has made my mouth like a sharp sword. He has hid me in the shadow of his hand and he has made me a polished shaft. He has kept me close in his quiver.

¹⁹ The sun will no more be your light by day, nor for brightness will the moon give light to you, but Jehovah will be to you an everlasting light and your God your glory. ²⁰ Your sun will no more go down, nor will your moon withdraw itself, for Jehovah will be your everlasting light. And the days of your mourning will be ended.

¹⁰ And it grew great, even to the host of heaven. And it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground and trampled upon them.

³ And those who are wise will shine as the brightness of the expanse and those who turn many to righteousness as the stars everlasting and forever.

² But to you* who fear my name the sun of righteousness will arise with healing in its wings and you* will go forth and frolic as calves of the stall.

² And he was transfigured before them, and his face shined like the sun, and his garments became white like the light.

¹³ On the road in the middle of the day, O king, I saw a light from heaven beyond the brilliance of the sun, having shone around me and those who traveled together with me.

¹⁷ also able to accept the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,

¹² For the word of God is living and effective and sharper beyond that of any two edged sword and is penetrating till the division of both soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow and is a judge of the contemplations and deliberations of the heart.

¹⁶ Therefore repent; otherwise I am coming to you shortly and make war with them with the long-sword of my mouth.

¹ And I saw a strong messenger coming down from heaven, having been dressed with a cloud, and the rainbow is upon his head and his face is like the sun and his feet like pillars of fire;

¹ And a great sign was seen in heaven, a woman having been dressed with the sun and the moon underneath her feet and upon her head a crown of twelve stars;

²¹ And the rest were killed with the long-sword of the one who sits upon the horse, which came forth out of his mouth and all the birds were fed from their flesh.

¹ After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Do not fear, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.

¹³ And Moses said to the people, Do not fear. Stand still and see the salvation of Jehovah, which he will work for you* today, because the Egyptians whom you* have seen today, you* will see them again everlasting.

²⁰ And Moses said to the people, Do not fear, because God has come to prove you* and that his fear may be before you*, that you* not sin.

¹⁰ Do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

²⁸ As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Jehovah. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face and I heard a voice speaking.

¹⁷ So he came near where I stood. And when he came, I was frightened and fell upon my face. But he said to me, Understand, O son of man, for the vision belongs to the time of the end.
¹⁸ Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground, but he touched me and set me upright.

⁸ So I was left alone and saw this great vision. And there remained no strength in me, for my fitness was turned in me into debility and I retained no strength. ⁹ Yet I heard the voice of his words. And when I heard the voice of his words, then I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground.
¹⁰ And behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

¹² Then he said to me, Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard. And I have come for your words' sake.

¹⁵ And when he had spoken to me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground and was mute.

¹⁷ For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? For as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me, nor was there breath left in me.
¹⁸ Then someone like the appearance of a man touched me again and he strengthened me. ¹⁹ And he said, O man are a great delight, do not fear. Peace be to you. Be strong, yes, be strong. And when he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.

¹⁶ I heard and my body trembled. My lips quivered at the voice. Rottenness enters into my bones and I tremble in my place, because I must wait quietly for the day of trouble, for the coming up of the people who invade us.

² And he was transfigured before them, and his face shined like the sun, and his garments became white like the light. ³ And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, speaking together with him.
⁴ Now Peter answered and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you will it. Should we make three tabernacles here; one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah?
⁵ While he is still speaking, behold, a radiant cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted; hear him!
⁶ And when the disciples heard it, they fell upon their face, and were extremely afraid. ⁷ And Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise and do not be afraid.

⁴ and those who are guarding the door, shook out of fear of him and became like dead men.

⁵ And entering into the tomb, they saw a young-man sitting at the right side, having been dressed in a white robe, and they were utterly amazed. ⁶ Now he says to them, Do not be utterly amazed. You are seeking Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He was raised. He is not here. Behold, the place where they laid him.

³⁷ But they became terrified and fearful and were thinking that they had viewed a spirit. ³⁸ And he said to them, Why are you disturbed? And why do questions come up in your hearts? ³⁹ Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, because a spirit does not have flesh and bones, like you view me having.

²³ But one of his disciples was reclining on Jesus’bosom, the one whom Jesus loved.

²⁰ But Peter, turning again, sees the disciple whom Jesus loved following; who also leaned-back upon his chest at the supper and who had said, Lord, who is he who is giving you up?

²⁵ But as for me I know that my Redeemer lives and at last he will stand up upon the earth.

⁴⁶ Jehovah lives and my rock is blessed and exalted be the God of my salvation,

²⁰ God is to us a God of deliverance and escape from death belongs to Jehovah the Lord.

²² And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder and he will open and none will shut and he will shut and none will open.

¹⁹ I will be giving to you the keys of the kingdom of the heavens, and whatever you bind upon the earth will have already been bound in the heavens, and whatever you loose upon the earth will have already been loosed in the heavens.

¹⁹ Still a little while and the world views me no more, but you view me, because I am living, you will also be living.

⁹ knowing that Christ having been raised up from the dead dies no more; death has no more lordship over him.

⁸ For in both, if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord; therefore, in both, if we live or die, we are the Lord’s. ⁹ For Christ both died and rose up and lived for this, in order that he might have lordship over both the dead and the living.

¹⁴ For the love of Christ is holding us together with him, having judged this thing: if one died on behalf of all, consequently, all died; ¹⁵ and he died on behalf of all, in order that those who are living should no longer live to themselves, but to the one who died and rose again on their behalf.

⁴ For even if he was crucified out of weakness, but yet he is living out of the power of God. For we are also weak in him, but yet we will be living together with him out of the power of God toward you.

³ For you died and the life you have, has been hidden together with the Christ in God.

³ It is he who, being the brightness of his glory and the exact representation of his essence, and is carrying all things by his declaration of power. Having made a cleansing of our sins through himself, he sat down by the right hand of the Majesty in the high place;

¹⁶ who has become, not according to the Law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an indestructible life;

²⁵ Hence he is also able to completely save those who come to God through him, always living, that he may petition on their behalf.

² Looking away from things, look toward Jesus, the author and completer of the faith, who endured the cross having despised shame, in exchange-for the joy laying before him, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

⁹ And whenever the living creatures gave glory and honor and thanks to the one who is sitting upon the throne, to the one who lives forevermore,

¹⁴ And the four living creatures are saying the amen; and the elders fell down and worshiped him.

¹ And the fifth messenger sounded and I saw a star from heaven has fallen to the earth and the key of the pit of the abyss was given to him.

¹ And I saw a messenger coming down from heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. ² And he took-hold of the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and the Adversary, the one who is misleading the whole inhabited-earth and bound him a thousand years,

¹⁴ And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, which is the lake of fire.

¹¹ saying, What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven congregations : to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamus and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.

¹ I saw after these things, and behold, a door has been opened in heaven and the first voice which I heard speaking with me, a voice like that of a trumpet, saying, Come up here and I will be showing you what things are essential to happen after these things. ² And immediately I became in the spirit and behold, a throne was placed in heaven, and sitting upon the throne ³ was one similar in appearance to a jasper stone and a carnelian and there was a rainbow surrounding the throne, similar in appearance to an emerald. ⁴ And twenty-four thrones were surrounding the throne and twenty-four elders sitting upon the thrones, having been dressed in white garments, and upon their heads golden crowns. ⁵ And lightnings and voices and thunders traveled out from the throne. And there were seven torches of fire burning in the sight of the throne, which are the seven spirits of God; ⁶ and in the sight of his throne, like a glassy sea similar to crystal, and in the middle of the throne and in a circle of the throne, four living creatures full of eyes before and behind. ⁷ And the first living creature was similar to a lion and the second living creature was similar to a calf and the third living creature having a face like that of a man and the fourth living creature was similar to a flying eagle. ⁸ And the four living creatures, one by one, having six wings apiece, are full of eyes inside and surrounding, and they have no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming. ⁹ And whenever the living creatures gave glory and honor and thanks to the one who is sitting upon the throne, to the one who lives forevermore, ¹⁰ the twenty-four elders will fall down in his sight who is sitting upon the throne and will be worshiping the one who lives forevermore and will put their crowns in the sight of the throne, saying, ¹¹ Worthy are you, our Lord and our God, the holy one, to receive the glory and the honor and the power because you created all things and because they are your will and they were created.

⁷ For the priest's lips should keep knowledge and they should seek the law at his mouth. For he is the messenger of Jehovah of hosts.

¹⁴ You are the light of the world. A city laying upon a mountain is not able to be hid. ¹⁵ Nor are they burning a lamp and placing it under a peck container, but upon the lamp-stand, and it is shining to all who are in the house. ¹⁶ So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and may glorify your Father, the one in the heavens.

¹¹ But he answered and said to them, It has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but it has not given to those men.

¹⁰ But he said, It has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but it is in parables to the rest; in order that seeing, they may not see; and hearing, they may not understand.

¹⁵ in order that you might become blameless and harmless children of God, flawless in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as illuminations in the world. ¹⁶ Keep holding onto the word of life, for a boast to me in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain nor labored in vain.

¹⁴ I am writing these things to you, hoping to come to you shortly; ¹⁵ but if I am slow, these things are in order that you may know how men ought to conduct themselves in the house of God, which is the congregation of the living God, the pillar and base of the truth. ¹⁶ And confessedly great is the mystery of godliness : God was manifested in the flesh, was made righteous in the Spirit, was seen by messengers, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was received up in glory.

¹² And I turned there to see the voice which was speaking with me and having turned, I saw seven golden lamp-stands. ¹³ And one similar to a son of man was in the middle of the seven lamp-stands. He has clothed himself with a long-robe and the breasts are girded around with a golden belt.

¹⁶ And he has in his right hand seven stars and a sharp two edged long-sword traveled out from his mouth and his appearance was as the sun appears in its power.

¹ Write to the messenger of the congregation in Ephesus:
He who is holding-fast the seven stars in his right hand and who is walking in the middle of the seven golden lamp-stands says these things:
