20 Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel,(A) who calls herself a prophet. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols.(B) 21 I have given her time(C) to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling.(D) 22 So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery(E) with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. 23 I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds,(F) and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.(G)

24 Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you,(H) 25 except to hold on to what you have(I) until I come.’(J)

26 To the one who is victorious(K) and does my will to the end,(L) I will give authority over the nations(M) 27 that one ‘will rule them with an iron scepter(N) and will dash them to pieces like pottery’[a](O)—just as I have received authority from my Father. 28 I will also give that one the morning star.(P) 29 Whoever has ears, let them hear(Q) what the Spirit says to the churches.
