Revelation 2:19-23
King James Version
19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols.(C) 21 I have given her time(D) to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling.(E) 22 So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery(F) 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,(G) and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.(H)
