¹⁶ I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give witness to you of these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright and morning star.

¹⁶ אני ישוע שלחתי את מלאכי להעיד לכם את אלה בפני הקהלות אנכי שרש דוד ותולדתו כוכב נגה השחר׃

⁴ But I have told you these things, so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn't tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
