1This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ,which God gave him to show to his servants the thingswhich must happen soon,which he sentand made known by his angel to his servant, John,2who testified to God’s wordand of the testimony of Jesus Christ,about everything that he saw.

3Blessed is he who reads and thosewho hear the words of the prophecy,and keep the things that are written in it,for the time is near.

4John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia:Grace to you and peace from God,who is and who was and who is to come;and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;

· · · some verses are not read1“To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write:

“He who holds the seven stars in his right hand,he who walks among the seven golden lamp stands says these things:

2“I know your works,and your toil and perseverance,and that you can’t tolerate evil men,and have tested those who call themselves apostles,and they are not, and found them false.3You have perseverance and have endured for my name’s sake,and have not grown weary.4But I have this against you,that you left your first love.5Remember therefore from where you have fallen,and repent and do the first works;or else I am coming to you swiftly,and will move your lamp stand out of its place,unless you repent.

1Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked,nor stand on the path of sinners,nor sit in the seat of scoffers;2but his delight is in the Lord’s law.On his law he meditates day and night.

3He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water,that produces its fruit in its season,whose leaf also does not wither.Whatever he does shall prosper.

4The wicked are not so,but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.

6For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,but the way of the wicked shall perish.

35As he came near Jericho,a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.36Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant.37They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.38He cried out, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”39Those who led the way rebuked him,that he should be quiet;but he cried out all the more,“You son of David,have mercy on me!”

40Standing still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him.When he had come near, he asked him,41“What do you want me to do?”

He said, “Lord, that I may see again.”

42Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight.Your faith has healed you.”

43Immediately he received his sightand followed him, glorifying God.All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
