1596 The Apocalypse of St. John the Apostle
10 And he saith to me: Seal not the words
of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at
hand.
11 He that hurteth, let him hurt still: and he
that is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that
is just, let him be justified still: and he that is
holy, let him be sanctified still.
12 Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is
with me, to render to every man according to his
works.
13 I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the
last, the beginning and the end.
14 Blessed are they that wash their robes in
the blood of the Lamb: that they may have a
right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the
gates into the city.
15 Without are dogs, and sorcerers, and un-
chaste, and murderers, and servers of idols, and
every one that loveth and maketh a lie.
16 I Jesus have sent my angel, to testify to
you these things in the churches. I am the root
and stock of David, the bright and morning star.
17 And the spirit and the bride say: Come.
And he that heareth, let him say: Come. And
he that thirsteth, let him come: and he that will,
let him take the water of life, freely.
18 For I testify to every one that heareth the
words of the prophecy of this book: If any man
shall add to these things, God shall add unto
him the plagues written in this book.
19 And if any man shall take away from the
words of the book of this prophecy, God shall
take away his part out of the book of life, and
out of the holy city, and from these things that
are written in this book.
20 He that giveth testimony of these things,
saith, Surely I come quickly: Amen. Come, Lord
Jesus.
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
you all. Amen.
