John's Vision of the Son of Man

9

I, Yochanan, am a brother of yours and a fellow-sharer in the suffering, kingship and perseverance that come from being united with Yeshua. I had been exiled to the island called Patmos for having proclaimed the message of God and borne witness to Yeshua.

10

I came to be, in the Spirit, on the Day of the Lord; and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet,

11

saying, “Write down what you see on a scroll, and send it to the seven Messianic communities — Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea!”

12

I turned around to see who was speaking to me; and when I had turned, I saw seven gold menorahs;

13

and among the menorahs was someone like a Son of Man, wearing a robe down to his feet and a gold band around his chest.

14

His head and hair were as white as snow-white wool, his eyes like a fiery flame,

15

his feet like burnished brass refined in a furnace, and his voice like the sound of rushing waters.

16

In his right hand he held seven stars, out of his mouth went a sharp double-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength.

17

When I saw him, I fell down at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand upon me and said, “Don’t be afraid! I am the First and the Last,

18

the Living One. I was dead, but look! — I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys to Death and Sh’ol.
