Readers’ Version

Literal Version

1This is the revelation that God gave to Yeshua the messiah to show to his slaves to explain what must happen soon. He communicated it by sending it via his messenger to his slave, Yohan 2who then faithfully passed on everything he saw of God’s message and the testimony of Yeshua the messiah. 3God will bless anyone who reads or listens to the messages of this prophecy and obeys what it written in it, because the time of these events happening is close.

1The_revelation of_Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) chosen_one/messiah, which gave to_him the god, to_show to_the slaves of_him, what things it_is_fitting to_become in quickness, and he_signified it, having_sent_out through the messenger of_him to_the slave of_him, Yōannaʸs, 2who testified the message of_ the _god, and the testimony of_Yaʸsous chosen_one/messiah, as_much_as he_saw.

1:4 The greetings to seven assemblies of believers

4[ref]This letter is from Yohan to the seven assemblies in Asia Minor:

Grace and peace to you all from the God who is and was and will be, and from the seven spirits who are in front of this throne, 5[ref]and from Yeshua the messiah, the faithful witness, the first to come back to life, and the ruler of all the leaders of the nations of the world.

Yeshua loves us and he has released us from our sins by his blood, 6[ref]and made us into a kingdom of priests to God his father, and he is deserving of honour and power throughout the ages. May it be so.

7[ref]Look, he’s going to come back in the clouds, and everyone will see him—the one who they speared—and all the tribes on the earth will be mourning over him. REWORK OT QUOTES

8[ref]“I am the A and the Z,” says Yahweh God, the one who is and was and will be—the most powerful one.

1:9 Yohan sees the messiah

9I, John, am your brother and partner in the suffering that’s typical of those who follow Yeshua. I’ve been exiled to Patmos Island where I endure because I believe God’s message and Yeshua’s testimony and look forward to his kingdom. 10One Sunday while meditating, God’s spirit gave me a vision, and I heard a voice behind me that seemed as loud as a trumpet blast 11that said, “Write down what you see here on a scroll and send it to the seven assemblies of believers—to the cities of Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”

12Then I turned to see who was talking to me, and I saw seven golden lamp holders, 13and standing among them was a man who looked like humanity’s child,[fn] wearing a long robe with a golden sash around His chest.[ref] 14His hair was gleaming white like wool or snow and his eyes were bright like a fiery flame.[ref] 15His feet shone like bronze that had been refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of a river of rushing water.[ref] 16He was holding seven stars in his right hand and a sharp sword was extending from his mouth, and his face was like the sun shining at its brightest. 17And when I saw him, I quickly lay at his feet, breathless like a dead man, but he placed his right hand on me, and told me, “Don’t be afraid. I am the first and the last.[ref] 18I lived and died here on the earth, but look, now I’m alive again and will live for all eternity, and I control the keys over death and over hell. 19So record what you’re seeing now as well as what I’ll show you about current and future events. 20This is the meaning of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lamp holders:[ref] The seven stars represent God’s messengers watching over those seven groups of believers,[ref] and the seven lamp holders represent those groups of believers.


1:13 It’s not certain what was meant here: either ‘a man who looked like humanity’s child’ or ‘a form that looked like a human man’.


9I Yōannaʸs, the brother of_you_all, and fellow-partaker in the tribulation, and kingdom, and endurance, in Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa), became in the island which being_called Patmos, because_of the message of_ the _god and the testimony of_Yaʸsous.
10I_became in the_spirit on the master’s day, and I_heard behind me a_voice loud like of_a_trumpet 11saying:
What you_are_seeing, write in a_scroll, and send to_the seven assemblies:
to Efesos, and to Smurna, and to Pergamos, and to Thuateira, and to Sardeis, and to Filadelfeia, and to Laodikeia.
12And I_turned_back to_be_seeing the voice which was_speaking with me.
And having_turned_back, I_saw seven lampstands golden,
13and in the_midst of_the lampstands:
similar son of_Man, having_dressed_in reaching_the_feet, and having_been_girded_about at the breasts a_belt golden.
14And the head of_him and his hairs were white, as_though wool white as snow, and the eyes of_him like a_flame of_fire, 15and the feet of_him similar to_burnished_bronze as in a_furnace of_having_been_refined, and the voice of_him like the_voice of_waters many, 16and holding in the right hand of_him seven stars, and out_of the mouth of_him a_sword double_edged sharp going_out, and the face of_him like the sun is_shining in the power of_it.
17And when I_saw him, I_fell at the feet of_him, as_though dead.
And he_put the right hand of_him on me saying:
Not be_fearing, I am the first and the last,
18and which living and I_became dead, and see, living I_am to the ages of_the ages, and I_am_having the keys of_ the _death and of_ the _Haidaʸs.
19Therefore write what things you_saw, and what things they_are, and what things is_going to_become after these things.
20The seven mystery of_the stars, which you_saw on the right hand of_me, and the seven lampstands the golden:
the seven stars, seven the_messengers of_the assemblies are, and the seven lampstands the_seven assemblies are.
