2Revelation 2

1To the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;Select Revelation 2:1

2I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience, and that thou canst not bear them who are evil; and thou hast tried them who say they are apostles, and are not; and hast found them liars:Select Revelation 2:2

3And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast labored, and hast not fainted.Select Revelation 2:3

4Nevertheless, I have [somewhat] against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.Select Revelation 2:4

5Remember therefore from whence thou hast fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come to thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of its place, except thou repent.Select Revelation 2:5

6But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.Select Revelation 2:6

7He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.Select Revelation 2:7

8And to the angel of the church in Smyrna, write; These things saith the first and the last, who was dead, and is alive;Select Revelation 2:8

9I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and [I know] the blasphemy of them who say they are Jews, and are not, but [are] the synagogue of Satan.Select Revelation 2:9

10Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer. Behold, the devil will cast [some] of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful to death, and I will give thee a crown of life.Select Revelation 2:10

11He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches; He that overcometh, shall not be hurt by the second death.Select Revelation 2:11

12And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he who hath the sharp sword with two edges;Select Revelation 2:12

13I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, [even] where Satan's seat [is]: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas [was] my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.Select Revelation 2:13

14But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumbling-block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit lewdness.Select Revelation 2:14

15So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.Select Revelation 2:15

16Repent; or else I will come to thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.Select Revelation 2:16

17He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth, he excepted, that receiveth [it].Select Revelation 2:17

18And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet [are] like fine brass;Select Revelation 2:18

19I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last [to be] more than the first:Select Revelation 2:19

20Notwithstanding, I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, who calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit lewdness, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.Select Revelation 2:20

21And I gave her time to repent of her lewdness, and she repented not.Select Revelation 2:21

22Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.Select Revelation 2:22

23And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he who searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give to every one of you according to your works.Select Revelation 2:23

24But to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, As many as have not this doctrine, and who have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you no other burden:Select Revelation 2:24

25But that which ye have [already] hold fast till I come.Select Revelation 2:25

26And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works to the end, to him will I give power over the nations:Select Revelation 2:26

27(And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers:) even as I received of my Father.Select Revelation 2:27

28And I will give him the morning-star.Select Revelation 2:28

29He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.Select Revelation 2:29
