I, John, Heard a Voice Say, Write What You See And Send It To The Seven Churches

I, John, your brother and co-partner in the affliction and kingdom and endurance in[a] Jesus, came-to-be on the island being called Patmos because of the word of God and[b] the testimony of Jesus. 10 I came-to-be in the Spirit[c] on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like [the sound] of a trumpet, 11 saying “Write in a book what you see, and send it to the seven churches— to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamum, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea”. 12 And I turned to see the voice which was speaking with me.

I Saw One Like a Son of Man Amidst Seven Lampstands, Which Are Seven Churches

And having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands. 13 And in the midst of the lampstands I saw One resembling[d] a son[e] of man having been dressed-in a robe reaching-to-the-feet, and having been girded-with a golden belt at the breasts. 14 And His head and hair were white like white wool, like snow. And His eyes were like a flame of fire. 15 And His feet were resembling brass[f], like something having been refined[g] in a furnace. And His voice was like the sound of many waters. 16 And He was holding seven stars in His right hand. And a sharp double-edged sword was coming-out of His mouth. And His face[h] was like the sun shines in its power. 17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as-though dead. And He placed His right hand upon me, saying “Do not be fearing. I am the First and the Last, 18 and the One living. And I became dead, and behold— I am living forever and ever. And I have the keys of death and Hades. 19 Therefore write the things which you saw, and[i] the things which are, and the things which are destined[j] to take place after these things. 20 As to the mystery of the seven stars which you saw upon My right hand and the seven golden lampstands— the seven stars are angels[k] of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are seven churches.

John 7:53-8:11

53 And[a] each one went to his house, but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

The Pharisees Bring Jesus a Woman Caught In Adultery

Now at dawn, He again arrived in the temple. And all the people were coming to Him. And having sat-down, He was teaching them. And the scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman having been caught in adultery. And having stood her in the middle, they say to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the-act, while committing-adultery. Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to be stoning such women[b]. What then do You say?” Now they were saying this testing Him, in order that they might have grounds to be accusing Him. But Jesus, having stooped down, was writing in the ground with His finger. But as they were continuing-on asking Him, He straightened-up and said to them, “Let the sinless one among you throw a stone at her first”. And again having stooped-down, He was writing in the ground. And the ones, having heard it, were going out one by one, beginning from the older ones. And He was left-behind alone, and the woman being in the middle. 10 And Jesus, having straightened up, said to her, “Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?” 11 And the one said, “No one, Sir”. And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn[c] you. Go. And from now on, do not be sinning any longer”.
