Revelation 22:6-11

Christian Standard Bible

The Time Is Near

⁶ Then he said to me, “These words are faithful^[a] and true.^(A) The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets,^[b] has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place.”^(B)

⁷ “Look, I am coming soon!^(C) Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”^(D)

⁸ I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. When I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had shown them to me. ⁹ But he said to me, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow servant with you, your brothers the prophets, and those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!” ^(E)

¹⁰ Then he said to me, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, because the time is near.^{(F) 11} Let the unrighteous go on in unrighteousness; let the filthy still be filthy; let the righteous go on in righteousness; let the holy still be holy.”^(G)
