⁹ I egō, John Iōannēs, · ho your hymeis brother adelphos and kai partner synkoinōnos in en the ho tribulation thlipsis and kai kingdom basileia and kai patient endurance hypomonē that are in en Jesus Iēsous, was ginomai on en the ho island nēsos · ho called kaleō Patmos Patmos on account of dia the ho word logos of ho God theos and kai the ho testimony martyria of Jesus Iēsous. ¹⁰ I was ginomai in en the spirit pneuma on en the ho Lord’ s kyriakos Day hēmera, and kai I heard akouō behind opisō me egō a loud megas voice phōnē like hōs a trumpet salpinx, ¹¹ saying legō, “ Write graphō what hos you see blepō on eis a scroll biblion and kai send pempō it to the ho seven hepta churches ekklēsia— to eis Ephesus Ephesos, · kai Smyrna Smyrna, · kai Pergamum Pergamos, · kai Thyatira Thuateira, · kai Sardis Sardeis, · kai Philadelphia Philadelpheia, and kai Laodicea Laodikeia.” ¹² And kai I turned epistrephō to see blepō the ho voice phōnē that hostis was speaking laleō to meta me egō, and kai when I had turned epistrephō I saw seven hepta golden chrysous lampstands lychnia, ¹³ and kai in en the midst mesos of the ho lampstands lychnia one like homoios a son hyios of man anthrōpos, dressed endyō in a long robe podērēs and kai with a gold chrysous sash zōnē tied perizōnnymi high across pros his ho chest mastos. ¹⁴ · ho · de His autos head kephalē and kai his ho hair thrix were white leukos, like hōs white leukos wool erion, like hōs snow chiōn, and kai · ho his autos eyes ophthalmos were like hōs a flame phlox of fire pyr. ¹⁵ · kai · ho His autos feet pous were like homoios burnished bronze chalkolibanon, refined pyroō in en a furnace kaminos, and kai · ho his autos voice phōnē was like hōs the roar phōnē of many polys waters hydōr. ¹⁶ · kai In en · ho his autos right dexios hand cheir he held echō seven hepta stars astēr, · kai from ek · ho his autos mouth stoma came ekporeuomai a sharp oxys two-edged distomos sword rhomphaia, and kai · ho his autos face opsis was shining phainō like hōs the ho sun hēlios at en · ho full autos strength dynamis.

³⁴ Now de when the ho Pharisees Pharisaios heard akouō that hoti he had silenced phimoō the ho Sadducees Saddoukaios, they met synagō together epi ho · ho ³⁵ and kai one heis of ek them autos, an expert nomikos in the law , wanted to test peirazō him autos, and asked eperōtaō, ³⁶ “ Teacher didaskalos, which poios is the greatest megas commandment entolē in en the ho law nomos?” ³⁷ And de he ho said phēmi to him autos, “‘ You shall love agapaō the Lord kyrios · ho your sy God theos with en all holos · ho your sy heart kardia, · kai with en all holos · ho your sy soul psychē, and kai with en all holos · ho your sy mind dianoia.’ ³⁸ This houtos is eimi the ho greatest megas and kai first prōtos commandment entolē. ³⁹ And de a second deuteros is like homoios it autos, ‘ You shall love agapaō · ho your sy neighbor plēsion as hōs yourself seautou.’ ⁴⁰ On en these houtos · ho two dyo commandments entolē depends kremannymi the ho whole holos Law nomos and kai the ho Prophets prophētēs.”

⁴¹ Now de while the ho Pharisees Pharisaios were assembled synagō, Jesus Iēsous put eperōtaō this question to them autos: · ho ⁴² “ What tis do you hymeis think dokeō about peri the ho Messiah Christos? Whose tis son hyios is eimi he ?” They said legō to him autos, · ho “David’ s Dauid.” ⁴³ He said legō to them autos, “ How pōs then oun does David Dauid in en the Spirit pneuma call kaleō him autos ‘ Lord kyrios,’ saying legō, ⁴⁴ ‘The Lord kyrios said legō to ho my egō Lord kyrios, “ Sit kathēmai at ek my egō right dexios hand until heōs an I put tithēmi · ho your sy enemies echthros under hypokatō · ho your sy feet pous”’? ⁴⁵ If ei therefore oun David Dauid calls kaleō him autos ‘ Lord kyrios,’ how pōs can he be eimi his autos son hyios?” ⁴⁶ And kai no oudeis one was able dynamai to answer apokrinomai him autos a word logos, nor oude did anyone tis dare tolmaō to question eperōtaō him autos any more ouketi from apo that ekeinos · ho day hēmera on.
