Revelation 19:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “Don’t! I am a fellow servant of yours and of your brothers who bear witness to Jesus. Worship God.(A) Witness to Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”[a]
The King of Kings. 11 [b]Then I saw the heavens opened, and there was a white horse; its rider was [called] “Faithful and True.” He judges and wages war in righteousness.(B) 12 His eyes were [like] a fiery flame, and on his head were many diadems. He had a name[c] inscribed that no one knows except himself.(C)
