Revelation 1 — Context

10

I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and a great voice at my back, as of a horn, came to my ears,

11

Saying, What you see, put in a book, and send it to the seven churches; to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamos and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.

12

And turning to see the voice which said these words to me, I saw seven gold vessels with lights burning in them;

13

And in the middle of them one like a son of man, clothed with a robe down to his feet, and with a band of gold round his breasts.

14

And his head and his hair were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

15

And his feet like polished brass, as if it had been burned in a fire; and his voice was as the sound of great waters.

16

And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword: and his face was like the sun shining in its strength.
