18 “And to the angel of the Church which is at Thyatira write: ‘These things says the Son of God, Who has eyes like a flame of fire, and feet like fine brass.

19 ‘I know your works and your love, and service and faith, and your patience; and that the works of those at the last are more than those at the first.

20 ‘Notwithstanding, I have a few things against you: that you put up with the woman, Jezebel. She calls herself a prophetess; to teach and to deceive my servants, to make them commit fornication, and to eat meat sacrificed to idols.

21 ‘And I gave her space to repent of her fornication, and she did not repent.

22 ‘Behold, I will cast her into a bed - and those who commit fornication with her into great affliction - unless they repent of their works.

23 ‘And I will kill her children with death. And all the Churches shall know that I am He who searches the deepest motives and hearts. And I will give to every one of you according to your works.

24 ‘And to you I say, ‘The rest of them of Thyatira, as many as have not received this learning, nor have known the deepness of Satan (as they speak), I will put upon you no other burden.

25 But to that which you have already, hold fast till I come.

26 ‘For he who overcomes and keeps My words to the end, to him I will give power over nations.

27 ‘And he shall rule them with a rod of iron. And as the vessels of a potter, shall they be broken.

28 ‘Even as I received from My Father, so will I give him the Morning Star.

29 ‘Let he who has an ear, hear what the Spirit says to the Churches.’”
