18 And to the angel of the church of Thyatira write thou, These things saith the Son of God, that hath eyes as flame of fire, and his feet like latten [and his feet like to the dross of gold, either latten].

19 I know thy works, and faith, and charity, and thy service [and service], and thy patience, and thy last works more than the former.

20 But I have against thee a few things; for thou sufferest the woman Jezebel, which saith that she is a prophetess [the which saith herself for to be a prophetess], to teach and deceive my servants, to do lechery, and to eat of things offered to idols.

21 And I gave to her time, that she should do penance [And I gave to her time, for to do penance], and she would not do penance of her fornication.

22 And lo! [Lo!] I send her into a bed, and they that do lechery with her shall be in most tribulation, but they do penance of her works [but they do penance of their works].

23 And I shall slay her sons into death [And I shall slay her sons in death], and all churches shall know, that I am searching reins and hearts; and I shall give to each man of you after his works.

24 And I say to you, and to others that be at Thyatira, whoever have not this teaching, and that knew not the highness of Satan, how they say, I shall not send on [upon] you another charge;

25 nevertheless hold ye that that ye have, till I come. [nevertheless that that ye have, holdeth till I come.]

26 And to him that shall overcome, and that shall keep till into the end my works, I shall give power on folks, [And to him that shall overcome, and shall keep till into the end my works, I shall give to him power upon folks,]

27 and he shall govern them in an iron rod; and they shall be broken together, as a vessel of a potter, as also I received of my Father;

28 and I shall give to him a morrow star. [and I shall give to him a morn star.]

29 He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches.
