⁷ as it is just for me this to think concerning all of you, because the to have me in the hearts of you, in both the bounds of me and in the defence and confirmation of the glad tidings, joint-contributors of me of the free gift all of you being;

¹⁴ But well you did, having jointly sympathized with me in the affliction.

⁴ so that us ourselves in you to boast among the congregation of the God, on account of the patience of you and of faith, in all the persecutions of you and the afflictions, which you endure; ⁵ a token of the righteous judgment of the God, for that to be deemed worthy you of the kingdom of the God, on behalf of which also you suffer.

⁵ The but Lord may direct of you the hearts into the love of the God, and into the patience of the Anointed.

⁸ Not therefore thou mayest be ashamed of the testimony of the Lord of us, nor me the prisoner of him; but participate in suffering evil for the glad tidings according to power of God,

³ Thou therefore endure evil as good a soldier of Jesus Anointed. ⁴ No one serving as a soldier involves himself with the of the life occupations, so that the one having enlisted he may please. ⁵ If but also may contend any one, not is crowned, if not lawfully he may have contented. ⁶ The toiling husbandman it behooves first of the fruits to partake. ⁷ Consider thou, the things I say; may give for to thee the Lord understanding in all things. ⁸ Do thou remember Jesus Anointed having been raised out of dead ones, from seed of David, according to the glad tidings of me; ⁹ in which I suffer evil even to chains, as an evil doer; but the word of the God not is chained. ¹⁰ On account of this all things I undergo on account of the chosen ones, so that also they salvation may obtain of that in Anointed Jesus, with glory age-lasting. ¹¹ True the word; if for we died with, also we shall live with; ¹² if we endure patiently, also we shall reign with; if we deny also he will deny us;

³⁶ Of patience for you have need; so that the will of the God having done, you may receive the promise.

⁷ Be you patient then, brethren, till the presence of the Lord. Lo, the husbandmen expects the precious fruit of the earth, having patience for it till he may receive rain early and latter; ⁸ be patient also you, establish the hearts of you, because the presence of the Lord has approached.

² who testified the word of the God, and the testimony of Jesus Anointed, what things he saw.

⁹ I know of thee the works, and the affliction, and the poverty, (but rich thou art,) and the blasphemy from those declaring Jews to be themselves, and not are, but an assembly of the adversary. ¹⁰ Not fear thou the things thou art about to suffer; lo, is about to cast the accuser from of you into prison, so that you may be tried; and you shall have affliction days ten. Be thou faithful till death, and I will give to thee the crown of the life.

¹⁰ because thou hast kept the word of the patience of me, also I thee will keep from the hour of the trial of that being about to come on the habitable whole, to try those dwelling on the earth.

⁷ And when they may finish the testimony of themselves, the wild-beast that rising up out of the deep will make with them war, and will conquer them, and will kill them.

¹⁰ If any one captivity leads together, into captivity he shall be led; if any one with a sword will kill, it is necessary him with a sword to be killed. Here is the patient endurance and the faith of the holy ones.

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

¹⁰ And I fell before the feet of him to worship him; and he says to me: See not; a fellow-bondservant of thee I am, and of the brethren of thee of those having the testimony of the Jesus; to the God do thou give worship. (The for testimony of the Jesus, is the spirit of the prophecy.)

⁴³ He says to them: How then David in spirit Lord of him calls? saying:

¹⁹ Being then evening in the day that the first of the week, and the doors having been shut, where were the disciples having been assembled, through the fear of the Jews, came the Jesus, and stood into the midst, and says to them: Peace to you.

²⁶ And after days eight again were within the disciples of him, and Thomas with them. Comes the Jesus, the doors having been shut, and stood into the midst, and said: Peace to you.

¹⁰ He became and very hungry, and wished to eat; making ready and of them, fell on him a trance, ¹¹ and he beholds the heaven having been opened, and coming down a vessel certain like a sheet great, four ends having bound, and being lowered down to the earth; ¹² In which were all the four-footed beasts of the earth and the wild beasts and the creeping things and the birds of the heaven; ¹³ and came a voice to him: Having arisen, O Peter, sacrifice and eat. ¹⁴ The but Peter said: By no means, O Lord; because never I ate any thing common or unclean. ¹⁵ And a voice again a second time to him: What the God has cleansed, thou not pollute. ¹⁶ This and was done for three times; and again was taken up the vessel into the heaven. ¹⁷ As and in himself was pondering the Peter, what might be the vision which he saw, even lo, the men those being sent from the Cornelius, having inquired for the house of Simon, stood at the gate; ¹⁸ and having called aloud they asked, if Simon he being called Peter here lodges. ¹⁹ The and Peter reflecting concerning the vision, said to him the spirit: Lo, men three are seeking thee; ²⁰ but having arisen do thou go down, and go with them, nothing doubting because I have sent them. ²¹ Having gone down but Peter to the men, said: Lo, I am, whom you seek; what the cause, on account of which you are present? ²² They and said: Cornelius a centurion, a man just and fearing the God, being testified of and by whole of the nation of the Jews, was divinely instructed by a messenger holy, to send after thee to the house of himself, and to hear words from thee. ²³ Having called in then them he lodged. On the and morrow having arisen he went out with them, and some of the brethren, those from Joppa, went with him. ²⁴ And on the morrow they entered into the Caesarea. The and Cornelius was expecting them, having assembled the relatives of himself and the intimate friends. ²⁵ When and came the to enter the Peter, having met him the Cornelius, having fallen to the feet, he worshipped. ²⁶ The but Peter him raised up, saying: Do thou arise; also I myself a man am. ²⁷ And talking with him, he went in, and finds having been assembled many. ²⁸ He said and to them: You know, how unlawful it is for a man a Jew, to unite or come near to a foreigner; and to me the God has shown, not common or unclean to say a man. ²⁹ Therefore also without hesitation I came having been sent after. I ask therefore, for what reason you sent after me? ³⁰ And the Cornelius said: From four days till this the hour, I was fasting, and the ninth hour praying in the house of me; and lo, a man, stood before me in clothing shining, ³¹ and he said: O Cornelius, heard of thee the prayer, and the alms of thee are remembered before the God. ³² Send therefore into Joppa, and call for Simon who is surnamed Peter; he lodges in a house of Simon a tanner by sea.; who having come will speak to thee. ³³ Immediately therefore I sent to thee; thou and well didst having come. Now therefore all we before the God are present, to hear all the things having been commanded thee by the God.

⁷ In and the first of the sabbaths, having been assembled of us to break bread, the Paul discoursed to them, being about to depart on the morrow; continued and the discourse till midnight.

² Every first of week each one of you by itself let him place, treasuring up, what thing he may be prospered; so that not when I may come, then collections may be made.

² I know a man in Anointed, above years fourteen, (whether with a body, not I know; or without the body, not I know; the God knows;) having been snatched away the such a one to third heaven. ³ And I know the such a man, (whether in a body, or without the body not I know; the God knows;) ⁴ that he was snatched away into the paradise, and heard indescribable things spoken, which not being possible for a man to speak.

¹ After these things I saw, and lo, a door having been opened in the heaven, and the voice the first which I heard as of a trumpet talking with me, saying: Come thou up here, and I will show to thee the things it behooves to have done after these things. ² And immediately I was in spirit; and lo, a throne was placed in the heaven, and on the throne one sitting;

³ and he cried with a voice great even as a lion roars. And when he cried, spoke the seven thunders the of themselves voices. ⁴ And when spoke the seven thunders, I was about to write; and I heard a voice from the heaven saying: Seal thou up what spoke the seven thunders, and not these things thou mayest write. ⁵ And the messenger, whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land, lifted up the hand of himself the right towards the heaven, ⁶ and he swore by the one living for the ages of the ages, who created the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in her, and the sea and the things in her, because time not yet shall be; ⁷ but in the days of the voice of the seventh messenger, when he may be about to sound, and be finished the secret of the God, as he announced glad tidings the of himself bond-servants the prophets. ⁸ And the voice which I heard from the heaven, again speaking with me, and saying: Go thou, take thou the little scroll that having been opened in the hand of the messenger of the one standing on the sea and on the land.

³ And he carried away me into a desert in spirit; and I saw a woman sitting on a wild best scarlet, being full of names of blasphemy, having heads seven and horns ten.

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

¹⁹ He came and to Ephesus, and them he left there; he but having entered into the synagogue, reasoned with the Jews. ²⁰ Asking and them for longer a time to remain with them, not he consented; ²¹ but he bade farewell to them, saying: It behooves me by all means the feast that coming to keep into Jerusalem; again but I will return to you, the God will. And he sailed from the Ephesus;

²⁴ A Jew and certain Apollos by name, an Alexandrian by the birth, a man eloquent, came to Ephesus powerful being in the writings.

¹ It happened and in the the Apollos to be in Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper parts, to come to Ephesus. And having found some disciples, ² he said to them: If a spirit holy you received having believed? They and said to him: But not even if a spirit holy is, we have heard. ³ He said and to them: Into what then were you dipped? They and said: Into the of John dipping. ⁴ Said and Paul: John dipped a dipping of reformation, to the people saying, into him coming after him that they should believe; that is, into the Jesus. ⁵ Having heard and they were dipped into the name of the Lord Jesus. ⁶ And having placed to them the Paul the hands, come the spirit the holy upon them, they spoke and with tongues and prophesied. ⁷ Were and the all men about twelve. ⁸ Having entered and into the synagogue, he spoke freely, for months three reasoning and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of the God. ⁹ When and some were hardened and disbelieved, speaking evil of the way in presence of the multitude, having departed from them, he separated the disciples, every day reasoning in the school of Tyrannus one. ¹⁰ This and was done for years two, so that all the dwellers the Asia to hear the word of the Lord, Jews both and Greeks. ¹¹ Miracles and not the common ones did the through the hands of Paul; ¹² so that even to those being sick to be brought from the skin of him napkins or aprons, and to be set free from them the diseases, the and spirits the evil to be cast out. ¹³ Took in hand and some from those going about Jews exorcists to name on those having the spirits the evil the name of the Lord Jesus, saying: I adjure you the Jesus, whom the Paul preaches. ¹⁴ Where and some sons of Sceva a Jew a high-priest seven, who this were doing. ¹⁵ Answering and the spirit the evil said: The Jesus I know, and the Paul I am acquainted with; you but who are? ¹⁶ and leaping on them the man, in whom was the spirit the evil, and having overcome them, prevailed against them, so that naked and having been wounded to have fled out of the house that. ¹⁷ This and became known to all Jews both and Greeks those dwelling the Ephesus; and fell a fear on all them, and was magnified the name of the Lord Jesus. ¹⁸ Many and of those having believed came confessing and declaring the deeds of them. ¹⁹ Many and of those the magical arts practising, having brought together the books, burned in presence of all; and they computed the prices of them, and found pieces of silver myriads five. ²⁰ Thus according to power the word of the Lord grew and prevailed. ²¹ When and was fulfilled these things, was dipped the Paul in the spirit, having passed through the Macedonia and Achaia, to go into Jerusalem, saying: That after the to be come me there, it behooves me also Rome to see. ²² Having sent and into the Macedonia two of those ministering to him, Timothy and Erastus, he remained a time in the Asia. ²³ It happened and during the season that a tumult not small concerning the way. ²⁴ Demetrius for a certain by name, a silver-smith, making temples of silver of Diana, brought to the workmen gain not a little. ²⁵ Whom having brought together, and those about the such like workmen, said: Men, you know, that out of this the work the wealth of us is; ²⁶ and you see and you hear, that not only of Ephesus, but almost all the Asia the Paul this having persuaded misled large crowd, saying, that not are gods those by hands being made. ²⁷ Not only and this in danger to us the craft into contempt to come; but also that the great goddess Diana temple into nothing to be despised, to be about and also to be destroyed the magnificence of her, which whole the Asia and the habitable worships. ²⁸ Having heard and, and having become full of wrath, they cried out, saying: Great the Diana of Ephesians. ²⁹ And was filled the city whole the confusion; they rushed and with one mind into the theatre, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus Macedonians, fellow-travelers of Paul. ³⁰ The and Paul wishing to enter into the assembly of the people, not suffered him the disciples. ³¹ Some and even of the rulers of Asia being to him friends, having sent to him, besought not to venture himself into the theatre. ³² Some indeed therefore some thing cried; was for the assembly having been confused, and the greater not knew, for what purpose they were come together. ³³ Out of and crowd they pushed forward Alexander, thrusting forward him the Jews; the and Alexander having waved the hand, wished to defend himself in the assembly of the people. ³⁴ Knowing but that a Jew he is, voice came one from all, about for hours two crying: Great the Diana of Ephesians. ³⁵ Having stilled and the scribe the crowd, he said: Men Ephesians, what for is man, who not knows the Ephesians city temple-keeper being of the great Diana and of that fallen from Jupiter? ³⁶ Cannot be denied therefore being these things, necessary it is you having been quiet to be and nothing rashly to do. ³⁷ You brought for the men these, neither temple-robbers, nor blasphemers of the goddess of you. ³⁸ If indeed Demetrius and those with him workmen have against say a word, courts are held, and proconsuls are; let them accuse each other. ³⁹ if but anything other things you inquire, in the lawful assembly it shall be settled. ⁴⁰ Even for we are in danger to be accused of tumult concerning the day, not one cause being, about which we are able to give a reason far the gathering this. ⁴¹ And these having said he dismissed the assembly.

¹⁷ From and the Miletus having sent to Ephesus he called for the elders of the congregation.

³² If according to man I fought with a wild beast in Ephesus, what to me the profit? if dead ones not are raised up, we may eat and we may drink; to-morrow for we die.

⁸ I shall remain but in Ephesus till the pentecost;

¹ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Anointed through will of God, to the saints to those being in Ephesus even to believers in Anointed Jesus;

¹⁵ Salute you those in Laodicea brethren, and Nymphas, and the in house of him congregation. ¹⁶ And when may have been read among you the letter, make you, that also in the Laodiceans congregation it may be read, and that from Laodicea that also you may read.

³ As I entreated thee to remain in Ephesus, departing for Macedonia, that thou mayest charge some not other to teach,

¹⁹ Write thou therefore the things thou sawest, even the things are, and the things about to occur after these;

⁴ And when spoke the seven thunders, I was about to write; and I heard a voice from the heaven saying: Seal thou up what spoke the seven thunders, and not these things thou mayest write.

¹³ And I heard a voice out of the heaven, saying: Write thou: Blessed ones the dead ones those in Lord dying from hence forth; yes, says the spirit, so that they may rest from the labors of themselves; the but works of them follows with them.

⁹ And he says to me: Write thou: Blessed ones those into the supper of the marriage of the lamb having been called. And he says to me: These the words true are of the God.

⁵ And said the one sitting on the throne: Lo, new all things I make. And he says to me: Write thou; because these the words faithful ones and true ones are.

¹³ and in midst of the seven lampstands like to a son of man, having on a garment reaching to the foot, and having been girded about at the breasts a girdle golden;

⁷ but himself emptied, a form of a slave having taken, in a likeness of men having been formed, ⁸ and in condition being found as a man; humbled himself, having become obedient till death, of a death even of a cross.

¹⁴ Since then the children have been sharers of flesh and blood, also he in like manner partook of the of them, so that by means of the death he might make powerless him the strength having of the death, that is the accuser, ¹⁵ and might set free them as many as by fear of death through all of the life held in were slavery. ¹⁶ Not for in any manner of messengers he takes hold, but of seed of Abraham he takes hold. ¹⁷ Hence he was obliged in all things to the brethren to be made like, so that merciful he might be and faithful high-priest the things as to the God, in order to the to expiate the sin of the people.

¹⁵ Not for we have a high-priest not being able to suffer with the weaknesses of us, having been tempted but in all things according to a likeness, apart from sin.

¹⁴ And I saw, and lo a cloud white, and on the cloud sitting like a son of man, having on the head of himself a crown golden, and in the hand of himself a sickle sharp.

⁶ and came out the seven messengers those having the seven plagues out the temple, having been clothed linen pure bright, and having been girt round about the breasts girdles golden.

³ Was and the aspect of him like lightning, and the garments of him white as snow.

¹² the but eyes of him as a flame of fire, and on the head of him diadems many; having a name having been written which no one knows, if not himself;

² And I heard a voice out of the heaven as a voice of waters many, as a voice of thunder great; and the voice which I heard, as of harpers harping on the harps of themselves.

⁶ And I heard as a voice of a crowd great, and as a sound of waters many, and as a voice of thunders strong, saying: Praise the Lord; because reigned Lord the God of us, the almighty.

² And he was transfigured in the presence of them, and shone the face of him as the sun; the and garments of him become white as the light.

¹³ of a day middle, in the way I saw, O king, from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, having shone round me a light and those with me going.

¹⁷ also the helmet of the salvation take you, and the sword of the spirit, which is a word of God;

¹² Living for the word of the God, and energetic, and more cutting beyond every sword two-mouthed, even cutting through to a division of life both and of breath, of joints both and of marrows, and able to judge of thoughts and of intentions of heart;

¹⁶ Change thy mind therefore; if but not, I am coming to thee quickly, and I will war with them by the broadsword of the mouth of me.

¹ And I saw another messenger strong coming down from the heaven, having been clothed with a cloud, and the rainbow on the head of him, and the face of him as the sun, and the feet of him as pillars of fire;

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

²¹ And the remaining ones were killed with the broad-sword of the one sitting on the horse, with the one going forth out of the mouth of him; and all the birds were filled with the flesh of them.

² And he was transfigured in the presence of them, and shone the face of him as the sun; the and garments of him become white as the light. ³ And lo, appeared to them Moses and Elias with him talking. ⁴ Answering and the Peter said to the Jesus: O lord, good it is us here to be; if thou wilt, we may make here three tents, to thee one, and Moses one, and one Elias. ⁵ Still of him speaking, lo, a cloud of light overshadowed them; and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying: This is the son of me the beloved, in whom I delight; of him hear you. ⁶ And having heard the disciples, they fell upon face of them, and were frightened greatly. ⁷ And coming near the Jesus, touched them, and said: Be you raised, and not be afraid.

⁴ From and the fear of him shook the keepers, and became as dead (men).

⁵ And having entered into the tomb, they saw a youth sitting on the right, having been clothed a robe white; and they were awe-struck. ⁶ He but says to them: Not be you amazed; Jesus you seek the Nazarene, the having been crucified; he has been raised, not he is here; see the place, where they laid him.

³⁷ Being terrified but and affrighted having become they thought a spirit to see. ³⁸ And he said to them: Why having been agitated are you? and why reasonings rise in the hearts of you? ³⁹ See you the hands of me and the feet of me, that he I am; handle you me and see you; for a spirit flesh and bones not has, as me you perceive having.

²³ Was now reclining one of the disciples of him in the bosom of the Jesus, whom loved the Jesus.

²⁰ Having turned about and the Peter sees the disciples, whom loved the Jesus, following (who also reclined at the supper on the breast of him, and said: O lord, who is he betraying thee?)

¹⁹ And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of the heavens; and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth, shall be bound in the heavens; and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth, shall be loosed in the heavens.

¹⁹ Yet a little, and the world me no more beholds; you but behold me; because I live, also you shall live.

⁹ knowing, that Anointed having been raised out of dead ones, no longer dies; death of him no longer lords over.

⁸ If both for we live, to the Lord we live; if and we die, to the Lord we die. If both therefore we live, if and we die, of the Lord we are. ⁹ To this for Anointed both died and lived, so that both of dead ones and living he might be lord.

¹⁴ The for love of the Anointed constrains us, ¹⁵ having judged this, that if one on behalf of all died, then they all died; and on behalf of all he died, that the living no longer to themselves should live, but to him on behalf of them having died and having been raised up.

⁴ even for if he was crucified from weakness, yet he lives from power of God; also for we are weak with him, but we shall live with him from power of God towards you;)

³ You did for, and the life of you has been hidden with the Anointed by the God;

³ who (being an effulgence of the glory and an exact impress of the substance of him, sustaining and the things all by the word of the power of himself,) through himself a purification have made of the sins of us, sat down at right of the majesty in high places;

¹⁶ who not according to a law of a commandment fleshly has become, but according to a power of life enduring.

²⁵ hence and to save for the completely is able those drawing near through him to the God, always living, in order to the interpose in behalf of them.

² looking away to the of the faith leader and perfecter Jesus, who in return for the being placed before him joy, endured a cross, shame disregarding, at right and of the throne of the God has sat down.

⁹ And when shall give the living ones glory and honor and thanks to the one sitting on the throne, to the one living for the ages of the ages,

¹⁴ And the four living ones said: So be it; and the elders fell down and did homage.

¹ And the fifth messenger sounded, and I saw a star from the heaven having fallen to the earth, and was given to him the key of the pit of the deep;

¹ And I saw a messenger coming down out of the heaven, having the key of the deep, and a chain great on the hand of himself. ² And he seized the dragon, the serpent the old, who is an accuser and an adversary, and he bound him a thousand years,

¹⁴ And the death and the invisible were cast into the lake of the fire; this the death the second is.

¹¹ saying: What thou seest do thou write for a scroll, and send to the seven congregations, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.

¹ After these things I saw, and lo, a door having been opened in the heaven, and the voice the first which I heard as of a trumpet talking with me, saying: Come thou up here, and I will show to thee the things it behooves to have done after these things. ² And immediately I was in spirit; and lo, a throne was placed in the heaven, and on the throne one sitting; ³ and the one sitting like in appearance to a stone a jasper and a sardius; and a rainbow around about the throne like in appearance to an emerald. ⁴ And round about the throne thrones twenty-four; and on the thrones twenty-four elders sitting, having been clothed, with garments white, and on the heads of them crowns golden. ⁵ And from the throne proceed lightnings and voices and thunders; and seven lamps of fire burning in presence of the throne, which are the seven spirits of the God; ⁶ and in presence of the throne as a sea made of glass, like crystal; and in midst of the throne and in a circle of the throne four living ones being full of eyes before and behind. ⁷ And the living one the first like to a lion, and the second living one like to a young bullock, and the third living one had the face of a man, and the fourth living one like to an eagle flying. ⁸ And the four living ones, one by one of them had apiece wings six, round about and within they are full of eyes; and rest not they have of day and of night, saying: Holy holy, holy Lord the God the almighty, the one who was and the one existing and the one coming. ⁹ And when shall give the living ones glory and honor and thanks to the one sitting on the throne, to the one living for the ages of the ages, ¹⁰ shall fall down the twenty-four elders in presence of the one sitting on the throne, and they shall do homage to the one living for the ages of the ages, and they shall cast the crowns of themselves in presence of the throne saying; ¹¹ worthy thou art, O Lord, to receive the glory and the honor and the power; because thou didst create the all things, and on account of the will of thee they were, and were created.

¹⁴ You are the light of the world. Not possible a city to hide upon a hill being situated; ¹⁵ nor they light a lamp, and place him under the measure, but on the lamp-stand; and it gives light to all those in the house. ¹⁶ Thus let it shine the light of you in the presence of the men, that they may see of you the good works, and may praise the Father of you that in the heavens.

¹¹ He and answering said to the: Because to you it is given to know the secrets of the kingdom of the heavens; to them but not it is given.

¹⁰ He and said: To you it is given to know the secrets of the kingdom of the God; to the but others in parables; that seeing not they may see, and hearing not they may understand.

¹⁵ that you may be blameless ones and harmless ones, children of God irreproachable in midst of a generation perverse and having been misguided; to which you appear as luminaries in world, ¹⁶ a word of life holding out; for a boast to me in a day of Anointed, that not in vain I ran, nor in vain I toiled.

¹⁴ These things to thee I write, hoping to come to thee very soon; ¹⁵ if but I should delay, that thou mayest know, know it behooves in a house of God to conduct thyself, which is a congregation of God living. ¹⁶ A pillar and basis of the truth and confessedly great is the of the piety secret. Who was manifested in flesh, was justified in spirit, was seen by messengers, was proclaimed among nations, was believed among a world, was taken up in glory.

¹² And I turned to see the voice which spoke with me; and having turned I saw seven lampstands golden, ¹³ and in midst of the seven lampstands like to a son of man, having on a garment reaching to the foot, and having been girded about at the breasts a girdle golden;

¹⁶ and having in the right of himself hand stars seven; and out of the mouth of him a broad sword two-mouthed sharp proceeding; and the appearance of him, as the sun shines in the power of himself.

¹ By the messenger of the in Ephesus congregation do thou write: These things says the one holding the seven stars in the right of himself, the one walking in midst of the seven lampstands the golden.
