And (A)he said to me, “(B)These words are faithful and true”; and the Lord, the (C)God of the spirits of the prophets, (D)sent His angel to show to His bond-servants the things which must soon take place.

“And behold, (E)I am coming quickly. (F)Blessed is he who [a]heeds (G)the words of the prophecy of this book.”

(H)I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, (I)I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. But (J)he *said to me, “Do not do that. I am a (K)fellow servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those who [b]heed the words of (L)this book. Worship God.”

The Final Message

10 And he *said to me, “(M)Do not seal up (N)the words of the prophecy of this book, (O)for the time is near. 11 (P)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.”
