Revelation 2
1<FR>Unto 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;<Fr>
2<FR>I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:<Fr>
3<FR>And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.<Fr>
4<FR>Nevertheless I have against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.<Fr>
5<FR>Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.<Fr>
6<FR>But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.<Fr>
7<FR>He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto 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.<Fr>
8<FR>And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive;<Fr>
9<FR>I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but the synagogue of Satan.<Fr>
10<FR>Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.<Fr>
11<FR>He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.<Fr>
12<FR>And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;<Fr>
13<FR>I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, where Satan's seat : and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.<Fr>
14<FR>But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.<Fr>
15<FR>So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.<Fr>
16<FR>Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.<Fr>
17<FR>He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth .<Fr>
18<FR>And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet like fine brass;<Fr>
19<FR>I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last more than the first.<Fr>
20<FR>Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.<Fr>
21<FR>And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.<Fr>
22<FR>Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.<Fr>
23<FR>And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that <FO>I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.<Fo><Fr>
24<FR>But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.<Fr>
25<FR>But that which ye have hold fast till I come.<Fr>
26<FR>And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:<Fr>
27<FR><FO>And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers:<Fo> even as I received of my Father.<Fr>
28<FR>And I will give him the morning star.<Fr>
29<FR>He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.<Fr>
