Yet you are holding on to my name and did not deny your faith in me,^Ip even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness^q who was put to death among you, where Satan lives. ¹⁴But I have a few things against you. You have some there who hold to the teaching of Balaam,^r who taught Balak to place a stumbling block^A in front of the Israelites: to eat meat sacrificed to idols^s and to commit sexual immorality.^{t 15}In the same way, you also have those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.^{B 16}So repent! Otherwise, I will come to you quickly^u and fight against them with the sword of my mouth.^v
