Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.

Behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the Words of the Prophecy of this Book.

And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to what his work shall be.

He who testifies to these things says, Surely I am coming quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

The great day of Jehovah is near; it is near and hastens greatly, the sound of the day of Jehovah. The mighty man shall cry out bitterly there.

Let your fairness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.

Do not grumble against one another, brethren, that you not be condemned. Behold, the Judge stands at the door.

Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not at all know what hour I will come upon you.

I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. And you hold fast to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days in which Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

But hold fast what you have till I come.

Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have affliction ten days. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.

Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.

the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and do homage to Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying:

And everyone who competes for the prize controls himself in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we an imperishable.

And also if anyone competes, he is not crowned unless he competes lawfully.

Hereafter, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all the ones loving His appearing.

Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

not exercising dominion over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock;

and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.
