 Greeting the Seven Churches

4 John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:

Grace to you and peace from Him (Ex. 3:14) who is and ( John 1:1) who was and who is to come, ([Is. 11:2]; Zech. 3:9; Rev. 3:1; 4:5; 5:6) and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, 

5 and from Jesus Christ, (John 8:14; Prov. 14:5) the faithful (Is. 55:4) witness, the (Ps. 89:27; 1 Cor. 15:20; [Col. 1:18]) firstborn from the dead, and ( Rev. 17:14) the ruler over the kings of the earth.

To Him (John 13:34) who (NU loves us and freed; M loves us and washed) loved us (Heb. 9:14) and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 

6 and has (1 Pet. 2:5, 9) made us (NU, M a kingdom) kings and priests to His God and Father, (1 Tim. 6:16) to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

7 Behold, He is coming with (Matt. 24:30) clouds, and every eye will see Him, even (Zech. 12:10–14; John 19:37) they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.

8 ( Is. 41:4; Rev. 21:6; 22:13) “I am the Alpha and the Omega, (NU, M omit the Beginning and the End) the Beginning and the End,” says the (NU, M Lord God) Lord, (Rev. 4:8; 11:17) “who is and who was and who is to come, the (Is. 9:6) Almighty.”
