Revelation 1:1-3

American Standard Version

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God ^[a]gave him to show unto his ^[b]servants, even the things which must shortly come to pass: and he sent and signified ^[c]it by his angel unto his servant John; ² who bare witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, even of all things that he saw. ³ Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written therein: for the time is at hand.
