To the Church in Smyrna

⁸ “And to the angel of the church in ^(A)Smyrna write:

^(B)This is what the first and the last, who ^[a](C)was dead, and has come to life, says:

⁹ ‘I know your ^(D)tribulation and your ^(E)poverty (but you are ^(F)rich), and the blasphemy by those who ^(G)say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of ^(H)Satan. ¹⁰ Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast some of you into prison, so that you will be ^(I)tested, and you will have tribulation ^(J)for ten days. ^[b]Be ^(K)faithful until death, and I will give you ^(L)the crown of life. ^11 (M)He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. ^(N)He who overcomes will never be hurt by the ^(O)second death.’
