Revelation 2:8-11
Legacy Standard Bible

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.’
