Revelation 22:8-13

New American Standard Bible

^8 (A)I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, ^(B)I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. ⁹ And ^(C)he *said to me, “^[a]Do not do that; I am a ^(D)fellow servant of yours and of your brothers the prophets, and of those who ^[b]keep the words of ^(E)this book. Worship God!”

The Final Message

¹⁰ And he *said to me, “^(F)Do not seal up ^(G)the words of the prophecy of this book, ^(H)for the time is near. ^11 (I)Let the one who does wrong still do wrong, and the one who is filthy still be filthy; and let the one who is righteous still practice righteousness, and the one who is holy still keep himself holy.”

¹² “Behold, ^(J)I am coming quickly, and My ^(K)reward is with Me, ^(L)to reward each one as his work ^[c]deserves. ¹³ I am the ^(M)Alpha and the Omega, ^(N)the first and the last, ^(O)the beginning and the end.”
