(16) I, Jesus, sent My angel to testify these things to you over the assemblies. I am the Root and Offspring of David, the bright and morning Star.

And the one thirsting, let him come; and the one desiring, let him take of the water of life freely. (The teachings of Christ. - John 4:7-26) (18) For I testify together with everyone hearing the Words of the prophecy of this Book, if anyone adds to these things, God will add upon him the plagues having been written in this Book. (19) And if anyone takes away from the Words of the Book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the Book of Life, and out of the holy city, and of the things having been written in this Book. (20) The One testifying these things says, Yes, I am coming quickly. Amen. Yes, come, Lord Jesus! (21) The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you. Amen.
