But I have `
this '
against thee,
that thou
sufferest
the
woman Jezebel, who calleth
herself a prophetess ;
and
she teacheth
and
seduceth
my servants to commit
fornication,
and to eat things
sacrificed to idols.

You
tolerate
that woman Jezebel, who calls
herself a prophetess .

her
teaching

My servants to be
sexually

sacrificed to idols.

I gave
her time that
she
should
repent;
and
she
willeth
not
to repent of her fornication
.

though
I have
given
her time to repent of her immorality,

is
unwilling

a bed, and them
that
commit adultery with her into
great tribulation ,

her children with
death;
and all the churches shall
know that I am he
that
searcheth
the reins
and hearts :
and I will give
unto
each one
of you according to your works
.
Then
I will strike
her children dead,
and all the churches will
know that I am the One
who
searches
minds
and hearts ,
and I will repay
each of you according to your deeds
.
But to
you
I say ,
to the rest that
are
in Thyatira, as
many
as
have
not this
teaching ,
who
know
not the deep things of Satan ,
as
they
are
wont
to
say;
I cast
upon you none
other
burden
.
But I say to the rest of
you
in Thyatira, who
do
not hold
to
her
teaching and
have
not learned
the so-called
deep things of Satan :
I will
place
no
further
burden
upon you.
Nevertheless that
which
ye
have
, hold fast till
I come.
Nevertheless, hold fast to
what
you
have
until
I come.
And he
that
overcometh,
and he
that
keepeth
my works
unto
the end, to
him
will
I give authority over the nations :
And to
the
one
who
overcomes
and continues
in
My work
until
the end, I will
give authority over the nations .
and
he shall
rule them with a
rod
of
iron ,
as
the
vessels
of
the
potter
are
broken
to
shivers;
as I also
have received of
my Father :
He will
rule them with an
iron scepter
and
shatter
them
like
pottery
—just
as I have received authority
from
My Father .
and I will give him the morning star.
And I will give him the morning star.
He that
hath
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
to the churches.

has
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says
to the churches.
