¹⁸‘And to the messenger of the assembly of Thyatira write: These things saith the Son of God, who is having his eyes as a flame of fire, and his feet like to fine brass; ¹⁹I have known thy works, and love, and ministration, and faith, and thy endurance, and thy works—and the last are more than the first.

²⁰‘But I have against thee a few things: That thou dost suffer the woman Jezebel, who is calling herself a prophetess, to teach, and to lead astray, my servants to commit whoredom, and idol-sacrifices to eat; ²¹and I did give to her a time that she might reform from her whoredom, and she did not reform; ²²lo, I will cast her into a couch, and those committing adultery with her into great tribulation—if they may not repent of their works, ²³and her children I will kill in death, and know shall all the assemblies that I am he who is searching reins and hearts; and I will give to you—to each—according to your works.

²⁴‘And to you I say, and to the rest who are in Thyatira, as many as have not this teaching, and who did not know the depths of the Adversary, as they say; I will not put upon you other burden; ²⁵but that which ye have—hold ye, till I may come; ²⁶and he who is overcoming, and who is keeping unto the end my works, I will give to him authority over the nations, ²⁷and he shall rule them with a rod of iron—as the vessels of the potter they shall be broken—as I also have received from my Father; ²⁸and I will give to him the morning star. ²⁹He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit saith to the assemblies.
