Message to Philadelphia
7 “And to the angel of the church in (A)Philadelphia write:
(B)He who is holy, (C)who is true, who has (D)the key of David, who opens and no one will shut, and who shuts and no one opens, says this:
8 ‘(E)I know your [a]deeds. Behold, I have put before you (F)an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little power, and have followed My word, and (G)have not denied My name. 9 Behold, I [b]will make those of (H)the synagogue of Satan, who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie—I will make them (I)come and bow down before your feet, and make them know that (J)I have loved you. 10 Because you have (K)kept (L)My [c]word of perseverance, (M)I also will keep you from the hour of the [d](N)testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole [e](O)world, to [f]test (P)those who live on the earth.

3 (A)We [a]give thanks to God, (B)the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, 4 (C)since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the (D)love which you have [b]for (E)all the [c]saints; 5 because of the (F)hope (G)reserved for you in [d]heaven, of which you previously (H)heard in the word of truth, [e]the gospel 6 which has come to you, just as [f](I)in all the world also it is bearing (J)fruit and [g]increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you (K)heard it and [h]understood the grace of God in truth; 7 just as you learned it from (L)Epaphras, our (M)beloved fellow bond-servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf, 8 and he also informed us of your (N)love in the Spirit.
9 For this reason we also, (O)since the day we heard about it, (P)have not ceased praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the [i](Q)knowledge of His will in all spiritual (R)wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you will (S)walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, [j](T)to please Him in all respects, (U)bearing fruit in every good work and [k]increasing in the [l]knowledge of God; 11 (V)strengthened with all power, according to [m]His glorious might, [n]for the attaining of all perseverance and [o]patience; (W)joyously 12 giving thanks to (X)the Father, who has qualified us [p]to share in (Y)the inheritance of the [q]saints in (Z)light.
