Greeting the Seven Churches

⁴ John, to the seven churches which are in Asia:

Grace to you and peace from Him ^(A)who is and ^(B)who was and who is to come, ^(C)and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne,

^8 (A)“I am the Alpha and the Omega, ^[a]the Beginning and the End,” says the ^[b]Lord, ^(B)“who is and who was and who is to come, the ^(C)Almighty.”
