The one who has an ear had better hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers,<n id="1" /> I will permit<n id="2" /> him to eat from the tree of life that is<n id="3" /> in the paradise of God.&#8217;<n id="4" />p>

all of whom<n id="1" /> were singing<n id="2" /> in a loud voice:p> <p class="poetry">&#8220;Worthy is the lamb who was killed<n id="3" />p> <p class="poetry">to receive power and wealthp> <p class="poetry">and wisdom and mightp> <p class="poetry">and honor and glory and praise!&#8221;p>

For the power<n id="1" /> of the horses resides<n id="2" /> in their mouths and in their tails, because their tails are like snakes, having heads that inflict injuries.

<p class="poetry">If anyone is meant for captivity,p> <p class="poetry">into captivity he will go.p> <p class="poetry">If anyone is to be killed by the sword,<n id="1" />p> <p class="poetry">then by the sword he must be killed.p> <p class="bodytext">This<n id="2" /> requires steadfast endurance<n id="3" /> and faith from the saints.p>

And gigantic hailstones, weighing about a hundred pounds<n id="1" /> each, fell from heaven<n id="2" /> on people,<n id="3" /> but they<n id="4" /> blasphemed God because of the plague of hail, since it<n id="5" /> was so horrendous.<n id="6" />p>

five have fallen; one is,<n id="1" /> and the other has not yet come, but whenever he does come, he must remain for only a brief time.

They will make war with the Lamb, but the Lamb will conquer them, because he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those accompanying<n id="1" /> the Lamb are the called, chosen, and faithful.&#8221;p>

It has<n id="1" /> a massive, high wall<n id="2" /> with twelve gates,<n id="3" /> with twelve angels at the gates, and the names of the twelve tribes of the nation of Israel<n id="4" /> are written on the gates.<n id="5" />

Now<n id="1" /> the city is laid out as a square,<n id="2" /> its length and width the same. He<n id="3" /> measured the city with the measuring rod<n id="4" /> at fourteen hundred miles<n id="5" /> (its length and width and height are equal).

When he had contemplated this, an<n id="1" /> angel of the Lord<n id="2" /> appeared to him in a dream and said, &#8220;Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;Therefore I tell you, do not worry<n id="1" /> about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Isn&#8217;t there more to life than food and more to the body than clothing?

If<n id="1" /> your hand or your foot causes you to sin,<n id="2" /> cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than to have<n id="3" /> two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire.

He is like a man<n id="1" /> building a house, who dug down deep,<n id="2" /> and laid the foundation on bedrock. When<n id="3" /> a flood came, the river<n id="4" /> burst against that house but<n id="5" /> could not shake it, because it had been well built.<n id="6" />

Then<n id="1" /> as the men<n id="2" /> were starting to leave,<n id="3" /> Peter said to Jesus, &#8220;Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters,<n id="4" /> one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah&#8221; &#8211; not knowing what he was saying.

and said to them, &#8220;Whoever welcomes<n id="1" /> this child<n id="2" /> in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me, for the one who is least among you all is the one who is great.&#8221;<n id="3" />p>

And I did not recognize him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water said to me, &#8216;The one on whom you see the Spirit descending and remaining &#8211; this is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.&#8217;

<p class="bodytext">Jesus answered<n id="1" /> her, &#8220;If you had known<n id="2" /> the gift of God and who it is who said to you, &#8216;Give me some water<n id="3" /> to drink,&#8217; you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.&#8221;<n id="4" />

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats from this bread he will live forever. The bread<n id="1" /> that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">Then Jesus, while teaching in the temple courts,<n id="1" /> cried out,<n id="2" /> &#8220;You both know me and know where I come from!<n id="3" /> And I have not come on my own initiative,<n id="4" /> but the one who sent me<n id="5" /> is true. You do not know him,<n id="6" />

Jesus answered,<n id="1" /> &#8220;Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you people<n id="2" /> do not know where I came from or where I am going.<n id="3" />
