< Revelation 1 >
1 This is the Revelation of Yeshua the Messiah, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,

9 I John, your brother and fellow-partner with you in persecution, Kingdom, and patient endurance in Yeshua, was on the island that is called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Yeshua.

10 I was in the Ruach on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet

12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands.

13 And among the lampstands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.

15 His feet were like burnished bronze, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.

16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.

17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last,
