¹² Behold, I come quickly; and my ^[a]reward is with me, to render to each man according as his work is. ¹³ I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

¹⁶ I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things ^[a]for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright, the morning star.
