To the Church in Thyatira

18 “And to the angel of the church in (A)Thyatira write:

(B)This is what the Son of God, the One (C)who has [a]eyes like a flame of fire and His feet are like burnished bronze, says:

19 (D)I know your deeds, and your love and faith and service and perseverance, and that your last deeds are greater than [b]at first. 20 But (E)I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman (F)Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and she teaches and deceives My slaves so that they (G)commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. 21 (H)And I gave her time to repent, and she (I)does not wish to repent of her sexual immorality. 22 Behold, I will throw her [c]on a bed of sickness, and those who (J)commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of [d]her deeds. 23 And I will kill her children with [e]pestilence, and all the churches will know that I am He who (K)searches the [f]minds and hearts; and (L)I will give to each one of you according to your deeds. 24 But I say to you, the rest who are in (M)Thyatira, who do not have this teaching, who have not known the (N)deep things of Satan, as they call them—I (O)place no other burden on you. 25 Nevertheless (P)what you have, hold fast (Q)until I come. 26 (R)And he who overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds (S)until the end, (T)to him I will give authority over the [g]nations; 27 and he shall [h](U)rule them with a rod of iron, (V)as the vessels of the potter are broken to pieces, as I also have received authority from My Father; 28 and I will give him (W)the morning star. 29 (X)He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
