A Translation of the New Testament from the original Greek / Humbly Attempted with a View to Assist the Unlearned with Clearer and More Explicit Views of the Mind of the Spirit in the Scriptures of Truth

by Thomas Haweis

²⁰But ye, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying by the Holy Ghost, ²¹preserve yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. ²²And of some have compassion, distinguishing their case; ²³and others save with trembling, snatching them out of the fire; though hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

²⁴Now to him who is able to guard you from stumbling, and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with exultation, ²⁵to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, might and dominion, both now and unto all eternity. Amen.

[THE REVELATION]

OF

JOHN THE THEOLOGIAN.

---

CHAP. I.

THE revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to shew to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass; and sending by his angel, he shewed them to his servant John: ²who was a witness for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ, and for the things which he saw. ³Blessed is he that readeth, and they who hear the words of this prophecy, and observe the things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

⁴John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be with you, and peace from him, who is, and who was, and who is coming; and from the seven spirits which are before the throne of God, ⁵and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, and first-born from the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth: to him who loved us, and washed us from our sins by his blood, ⁶and made us kings and priests to his God and Father; to him be glory and might for ever and ever. Amen.
