⁶ And he said unto me, These words are faithful and true: and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent his angel to show unto his ^[a]servants the things which must shortly come to pass. ⁷ And behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the words of the prophecy of this book.

⁸ And I John am he that heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to ^[b]worship before the feet of the angel that showed me these things. ⁹ And he saith unto me, See thou do it not: I am a fellow-servant with thee and with thy brethren the prophets, and with them that keep the words of this book: worship God.

¹⁰ And he saith unto me, Seal not up the words of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand. ¹¹ He that is unrighteous, let him do unrighteousness ^[c]still: and he that is filthy, let him be made filthy ^[d]still: and he that is righteous, let him do righteousness ^[e]still: and he that is holy, let him be made holy ^[f]still.
