saying what thou seest write in a book and send it to the seven churches unto Ephesus and unto Smyrna and unto pergamum and unto thara and unto Sardis and unto Philadelphia and unto Le oysa and I turned to see the voice that spake with me and having turned I saw seven golden candlesticks and in the midst of the candlesticks one like unto a son of man clothed with a garment down to the foot and Girt about at the breasts with a golden girdle and his head and his hair were white as white wool white as
snow and his eyes were as a flame of fire and his feet like unto burnished brass as if it had been refined in a furnace and his voice as the voice of many Waters and he had in his right hand Seven Stars and out of his mouth preceded a sharp two-edged sword and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength and when I saw him I fell at his feet as one dead and he laid his right hand upon me saying fear not I am the first and the last and the living one

an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches after these things I saw saw and behold a door opened in heaven and the first voice that I Heard a Voice as of a trumpet speaking with me one saying come up hither and I will show Thee the things which must come to pass Hereafter straight way I was in the spirit and behold there was a throne set in heaven and one sitting upon the throne and he that sat was to look upon like a jasper stone and a sardius and there was a
rainbow round about The Throne like an emerald to look upon and round about The Throne were four and 20 Thrones and upon the Thrones I saw four and 20 Elders sitting arrayed in white garments and on their heads crowns of gold and out of the throne prede Lightnings and voices and Thunders and there were seven lamps of fire burning Before the Throne which are the seven spirits of God and Before the Throne as it were a sea of glass like unto Crystal and in the midst of the throne and round about The Throne four living
creatures full of eyes before and behind and the first creature was like a lion and the second creature like a calf and the third creature had a face as of a man and the fourth creature was like a flying eagle and the four living creatures having each one of them six wings are full of eyes round about and within and they have no rest day and night saying holy holy holy is the Lord God the almighty who was and who is and who is to come and when the living creatures shall give glory and honor
and thanks to him that sth on the throne to him that liveth forever and ever the four and 20 Elders shall fall down before him that sth on the throne and shall worship him that liveth forever and ever and shall cast their crowns Before the Throne saying worthy art thou our Lord and our God to receive the glory and the honor and the power for thou did create all things and because of thy will they were and were created and I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written
within and on the back close sealed with Seven Seals and I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great voice who is worthy to open the book and to loose the seals thereof and no one in the heaven or on the earth or under the Earth was able to open the book or to look thereon and I wept much because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look thereon and one of the elders saith unto me weep not behold the lion that is of the tribe of Judah the root of David
hath overcome to open the book and the Seven Seals thereof and I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living living creatures and in the midst of the elders a lamb standing as though it had been slain having seven horns and seven eyes which are the seven spirits of God sent forth into all the Earth and he came and he taketh it out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne and when he had taken the book the four living creatures and the 4 and 20 Elders fell down
before the lamb having each one a harp and golden bowls full of incense which are the prayers of the Saints and they sing a new song saying worthy art thou to take the book and to open the seals thereof for thou was slain and did purchase unto God with thy blood men of every tribe and tongue and people and nation and mest them to be unto our God a kingdom and Priests and they Reign upon the Earth and I saw and I heard a voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures
and the elders and the number of them was 10,000 times 10,000 and thousands of thousands saying with a great voice Worthy is the Lamb that hath been slain to receive the power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing and every created thing which is in the heaven and on the earth and under the Earth and on the sea and all things that are in them heard I say saying unto him that sth on the throne and unto the lamb be the blessing and the honor and the glory and the Dominion
forever and ever and the four living creatures said amen and the elders fell down and worshiped and I saw when the lamb opened one of the Seven Seals and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder come and I saw and behold a white horse and he that sat thereon had a bow and there was given unto him a crown and he came forth conquering and to conquer and when he opened the second seal I heard the second living creature saying come and another horse came forth a red
horse and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth and that they should slay one another and there was given unto him a great sword and when he opened the third seal I heard the third living creature saying come and I saw and behold a black horse and he that sat thereon had a balance in his hand and I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying a measure of wheat for a shilling and three measures of barley for a shilling and the
oil and the wine hurt thou not and when he opened the fourth seal I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying come and I saw and behold a Pale Horse and he that sat upon him his name was death and Hades followed with him and there was given unto them authority over the fourth part of the earth to kill with sword and with famine and with death and by the wild beasts of the earth and when he opened the fifth seal I saw underneath the altar The Souls of them that had been slain
la for the word of God and for the testimony which they held and they cried with a great voice saying how long oh Master the holy and true Dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth and there was given them to each one a white robe and it was said unto them that they should rest yet for a little time till their fellow servants also and their Brethren who should be killed even as they were should have fulfilled their course and I saw when he opened the Sixth Seal
and there was a great earthquake and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair and the whole Moon became as blood and the stars of the heaven fell unto the Earth as a fig tree casteth her unripe figs when she is shaken of a great wind and the heaven was removed as a scroll when it is rolled up and every mountain and Island were moved out of their places and the kings of the Earth Earth and the princes and the chief captains and the rich and the strong and every bondman and Freeman hid themselves in
the caves and in the rocks of the mountains and they say to the mountains and to the Rocks fall on us and hide us from the face of him that sth on the throne and from the Wrath of the lamb for the great day of their wrath is come and who is able to stand after this I saw four Angels standing at the fo four corners of the Earth holding the Four Winds of the earth that no wind should blow on the earth or on the sea or upon any tree and I saw another Angel
ascend from the sunrising having the Seal of the Living God and he cried with a great voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the Sea saying hurt not the Earth neither the sea nor the trees till we shall have sealed the Servants of our God on their warheads and I heard the number of them that were sealed 140 and 4,000 sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel of the tribe of Judah were sealed 12,000 of the tribe of Reuben 12,000 of the tribe of GAD
12,000 of the tribe of Asher 12,000 of the tribe of naftali 12,000 of the tribe of Manasseh 12,000 of the tribe of Simeon 12,000 of the tribe of Levi 12,000 of the tribe of isachar 12,000 of the tribe of zebulin 12,000 of the tribe of Joseph 12,000 of The Tribe of Benjamin were sealed 12,000 after these things I saw and behold a great multitude which no man could number out of every nation and of all tribes and peoples and tongues standing before Before the Throne and before the lamb arrayed in white robes and Palms in
their hands and they cry with a great voice saying salvation unto our God who sth on the throne and unto the lamb and all the Angels were standing round about the throne and about the elders and the four living creatures and they fell Before the Throne on their faces and worshiped God saying amen blessing and Glory and wisdom and Thanksgiving and honor and power and might be unto our God forever and ever amen and one of the elders answered saying unto me these that are arrayed in the white robes who are they and whence came
they and I say unto him my Lord thou knowest and he said to me these are they that come out of the Great Tribulation and they wash their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb therefore are they Before the Throne of God and they serve him day and night in his Temple and he that sth on the throne shall spread his Tabernacle over them they shall hunger no more neither thirst anymore neither shall the sun strike upon them nor any heat for the lamb that is in the midst of the throne
shall be their Shepherd and shall guide them unto Fountains of waters of life and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes Revelation 8 and when he opened the seventh seal there followed a silence in heaven about the space of half an hour and I saw the seven angels that stand before God and there were given unto them seven trumpets and another angel came and stood over the altar having a golden sensor and there was given unto him much incense that he should add it unto the prayers of all the saints upon the golden
altar which was before the throne and the smoke of the incense with the prayers of the saints went up before God out of the Angel's hand and the angel taketh the sensor and he filled it with the fire of the Altar and cast it upon the Earth and there followed Thunders and voices and Lightnings and an earthquake and the seven angels that had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound and the first sounded and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood and they were cast upon the earth and the third part of the Earth
was burnt up and the third part of the trees was burnt up and all green grass was burnt up and the second Angel sounded and as it were a great Mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea and the third part of the sea became blood and there died the third part of the creatures which were in the sea even they that had life and the third part of the ships was destroyed and the third Angel sounded and there fell from heaven a great star burning as a torch and it fell upon the third
part of the rivers and upon The Fountains of the waters and the name of the star is called wormwood and the third part of the waters became wormwood and many men died of the waters because they were made bitter and the fourth angel sounded and the third part of the sun was smitten and the third part of the moon and the third part of the stars that the third part of them should be darkened and the day should not Shine for the third part of it and the night in like Manner and I saw and
I heard an eagle flying in mid Heaven saying with a great voice wo whoo whoo for them that dwell on the Earth by reason of the other voices of The Trumpet of the Three Angels who are yet to sound and the fifth angel sounded and I saw a star from Heaven Fallen unto the Earth and there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss and he opened the pit of the abyss and there went up a smoke out of the pit as the smoke of a great furnace and the Sun and
the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit and out of the smoke came forth locusts upon the Earth and power was given them as the Scorpion of the Earth have power and it was said unto them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth neither any green thing neither any tree but only such men as have not the Seal of God on their foreheads and it was given them that they should not kill them but that they should be tormented 5 months and their torment was as the torment of
a scorpion when it striketh a man and in those days men shall seek death and shall in no wise find it and then shall desire to die and death flee from them and the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared for war and upon their heads as it were crowns like unto gold and their faces were as men's faces and they had hair as the hair of women and their teeth were as the teeth of lions and they had breastplates as it were breast plates of iron and the sound of their wings was
as the sound of Chariots of many horses rushing in to war and they have tals like unto scorpions and stings and in their tals is their power to hurt men five months they have over them as king the angel of the Abyss his name in Hebrew is abadan and in the Greek tongue he hath the name apolon the first woe is passed behold there come yet two woes Hereafter and the sixth Angel sounded and I Heard a Voice from the horns of the golden alter which is before God one saying to the sixth angel that
had the trumpet loose the four angels that are bound at the great river Euphrates and the Four Angels were loosed that had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year that they should kill the third part of men and the number of the armies of the horsemen was twice 10,000 times 10,000 I heard the number of them and thus I saw the horses in the vision and them that sat on them having breastplates as of fire and of hin and of Brimstone and the heads of the horses are as the heads of
lions and out of their mouths proceedeth fire and smoke and brimstone by these three plagues was the third part of men killed by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone which preceded out of their mouths for the power of the horses is in their mouth and in their tails for their tals are like unto serpents and have heads and with them they hurt and the rest of mankind who were not killed with these plagues repented not of the works of their hands that they should not worship demons and the idols of gold and of
silver and of brass and of stone and of wood which can neither see nor hear nor walk and they repented not of their murders nor of their sorceries nor of their fornication nor of their thefts and I saw another strong angel coming down out of heaven arrayed with a cloud and the rainbow was upon his head and his face was as the sun and his feet as pillars of fire and he had in his hand a little book open and he set his right foot upon the sea and his left upon the Earth and he
cried with a great voice as a lion Roth and when he cried the seven Thunders uttered their voices and when the seven Thunders uttered their voices I was about to write and I Heard a Voice from Heaven saying seal up the things which the seven Thunders uttered and write them not and the angel that I saw standing upon the sea and upon the Earth lifted up his right hand to heaven and swear by him that liveth forever and ever who created the Heaven and the things that are therein and the earth and the things that
are therein and the see and the things that are therein that there shall be delay no longer but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel when he is about to sound then is finished the mystery of God according to the Good Tidings which he declared to his servants the prophets and the voice which I heard from Heaven I heard it again speaking with me and saying go take the book which is open in the hand of the angel that standeth upon the sea and upon the Earth and I went unto the angel
saying unto him that he should give me the little book and he saith unto me take it and eat it up and it shall make thy belly bitter but in thy mouth it shall be sweet as honey and I took the little book out of the Angel's hand and ate it up and it was in my mouth sweet as honey and when I had eaten it my belly was made bitter and they say unto me thou must prophesy again over many peoples and Nations and tongues and kings
