1
The revelation of Yahushua the Anointed, which Elohim gave him to show his servants the things that must happen quickly; and he made it known by sending through his messenger to his servant Yochanan,
2
who testified to the Word of Elohim and to the testimony of Yahushua the Anointed - everything he saw.
3
Blessed is the one who reads, and those who hear, the words of this prophecy and guard the things written in it, for the appointed time is near.
4
Yochanan, to the seven assemblies in Asia: Grace to you and shalom from the One who is, and who was, and who is coming, and from the seven ruachot before His throne,
5
and from Yahushua the Anointed, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To the one who loves us and released us from our sins through his blood,
6
and made us a kingdom, kohenim to his Elohim and Father - to him be glory and dominion to the ages of the ages. Amein.
7
See - he comes with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, even those who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn because of him. Yes. Amein.
8
"I am the Aleph and the Tav," says Yahuah Elohim, "the One who is, and who was, and who is coming, El Shaddai."
9
I, Yochanan, your brother and fellow-partaker in the affliction, Kingdom, and endurance in Yahushua, was on the island called Patmos because of the Word of Elohim and the testimony of Yahushua.
10
I came to be in Ruach on the day of Yahuah, and I heard behind me a great voice like a shofar,
11
saying, "What you see, write in a sefer and send it to the seven assemblies: to Ephesos, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodikeia."
12
And I turned to see the voice speaking with me. And turning, I saw seven golden menorot,
13
and in the midst of the menorot one like a Son of Adam, clothed in a garment reaching to the feet and girded across the chest with a golden sash.
14
His head and hair were white like white wool, like snow, and his eyes like a flame of fire.
15
His feet were like refined bronze, as though burning in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of many waters.
16
In his right hand he held seven stars, and from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in its strength.
17
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. But he placed his right hand upon me and said, "Do not fear. I am the First and the Last,
18
and the Living One. I became dead, and see - I am living to the ages of the ages, and I hold the keys of Death and Sheol.
19
Therefore write the things you saw, and the things that are, and the things that are about to happen after these.
20
The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden menorot: the seven stars are the messengers of the seven assemblies, and the seven menorot are the seven assemblies."
