Revelation 1:12-18
Christian Standard Bible
12 Then I turned to see whose voice(A) it was that spoke to me. When I turned I saw seven golden lampstands,(B) 13 and among the lampstands was one like the Son of Man,[a](C) dressed in a robe(D) and with a golden sash wrapped around his chest.(E) 14 The hair of his head was white as wool—white as snow(F)—and his eyes like a fiery flame.(G) 15 His feet were like fine bronze as it is fired in a furnace,(H) and his voice like the sound of cascading[b] waters.(I) 16 He had seven stars in his right hand; a sharp double-edged sword came from his mouth,(J) and his face was shining like the sun at full strength.(K)
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man.(L) He laid his right hand on me and said, “Don’t be afraid. I am the First and the Last,(M) 18 and the Living One.(N) I was dead, but look—I am alive forever and ever,(O) and I hold the keys(P) of death and Hades.
