Revelation 2:12-17

English Standard Version

To the Church in Pergamum

¹² “And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: ‘The words of him who has ^(A)the sharp two-edged sword.

¹³ “‘I know where you dwell, ^(B)where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not ^(C)deny my faith^[a] even in the days of Antipas ^(D)my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells. ¹⁴ But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of ^(E)Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, so that they might ^(F)eat food sacrificed to idols and ^(G)practice sexual immorality. ¹⁵ So also you have some who hold the teaching of ^(H)the Nicolaitans. ¹⁶ Therefore repent. If not, ^(I)I will come to you soon and ^(J)war against them with ^(K)the sword of my mouth. ^17 (L)He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. ^(M)To the one who conquers I will give some of ^(N)the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with ^(O)a new name written on the stone ^(P)that no one knows except the one who receives it.’
