⁶ For God, who said, “^(A)Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has ^(B)shone in our hearts to give the ^(C)Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

¹⁶ “^(A)I, Jesus, have sent ^(B)My angel to testify to you of these things ^[a](C)for the churches. I am ^(D)the root and the ^(E)descendant of David, the bright ^(F)morning star.”

¹⁹ And so we have ^(A)the prophetic word made more ^(B)sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to ^(C)a lamp shining in a dark place, until the ^(D)day dawns and the ^(E)morning star arises ^(F)in your hearts.
