1:4 The greetings to seven assemblies of believers

4 This letter is from Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes) to the seven assemblies in Asia Minor:

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

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

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

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

4 Seven Yōannaʸs to _the assemblies which in the Asia:
grace to _you _all and peace, from the one being, and who was, and who coming, and from the seven spirits, who are before the throne of _him,

5 and from Yaʸsous chosen _one /messiah, the witness the faithful, the firstborn of _the dead, and the ruler of _the kings of _the earth.
To _the one loving us, and having _released us from the sins of _us in the blood of _him,

6 and made us a_kingdom, priests the to_god and father of _him, to _him be the glory and the dominion to the ages.
Truly.

7 Behold, he _is _coming with the clouds, and will _be _seeing him every eye, and who him they _pierced, and will _be _mourning over him all the tribes of _the earth.
Yes.
Truly.

8 I am the first _letter and the last _letter, is _saying the_master, the god:
the one being, and who was, and who coming, the almighty.
