Revelation 2:20-29

Amplified Bible

²⁰ But I have this [charge] against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess [claiming to be inspired], and she teaches and misleads My bond-servants so that they commit [acts of sexual] immorality and eat food sacrificed to idols.^{(A) 21} I gave her time to repent [to change her inner self and her sinful way of thinking], but she has no desire to repent of her immorality and refuses to do so. ^22 [a]Listen carefully, I will throw her on a bed of sickness, and those who commit adultery with her [I will bring] into great anguish, unless they repent of her deeds. ²³ And I will kill her children (followers) with ^[b]pestilence [thoroughly annihilating them], and all the churches will know [without any doubt] that I am He who searches the ^[c]minds and hearts [the innermost thoughts, purposes]; and I will give to each one of you [a reward or punishment] according to your deeds.^{(B) 24} But to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching, who have not explored and known the ^[d]depths of Satan, as they call them—I place no other burden on you, ²⁵ except to hold tightly to what you have until I come. ²⁶ And he who overcomes [the world through believing that Jesus is the Son of God] and he who keeps My deeds [doing things that please Me] until the [very] end, to him I will give authority and power over the nations;^{(C) 27} and he shall shepherd and rule them with a rod of iron, as the earthen pots are broken in pieces, as I also have received authority [and power to rule them] from My Father;^{(D) 28} and I will give him the ^[e]Morning Star. ²⁹ He who has an ear, let him hear and heed what the Spirit says to the churches.’
