Noyes⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him that loveth us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, ⁶ and made us a kingdom, priests to God his Father, to him be the glory and the dominion for ever. Amen. ⁷ Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
