To the Church in Philadelphia

7“And to the angel of the church in aPhiladelphia write:

bThis is what He who is holy, cwho is true, who has dthe key of David, who opens and no one will shut, and who shuts and no one opens, says:

8‘aI know your 1deeds. Behold, I have given before you ban open door which no one can shut, because you have a little power, and have kept My word, and chave not denied My name.

9‘Behold, I am giving up those of athe synagogue of Satan, those who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie. Behold, I will make them bcome and bow down before your feet, and make them know that cI have loved you.

10‘Because you have akept the word of bMy perseverance, cI also will keep you from the hour of 1dtesting, which is about to come upon the whole 2eworld, to 3test fthose who dwell on the earth.

11‘aI am coming quickly; bhold fast what you have, so that no one will take your ccrown.

12‘aHe who overcomes, I will make him a bpillar in the sanctuary of My God, and he will never go out from it anymore. And I will write on him the cname of My God, and dthe name of the city of My God, ethe new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My fnew name.

13‘aHe who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
