2:8 The message to the assembly in Smurna

8 To the assembly’s messenger in Smurna write:

The one who’s the first and the last,[ref] who died but lived again, says these things: 9 “I know about your suffering and your poverty, but you’re actually rich! I also know how about the slander of those who consider themselves to be Yehudim (Jews), but they’re not true Yehudim because their master is Satan. 10 Don’t be afraid about what you’re going to suffer. Yes, the devil will throw some of you into prison where your faith will be tested, and you’ll experience persecution for ten days. Just remain faithful, even if it means death, and I’ll give you life as a reward.

11 Everyone who wants to understand needs to listen to what God’s spirit is saying to the assemblies.

Anyone who stays true won’t be affected by the second death.”[ref]
