15. And his feet like unto fine bronze, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
16. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shines in its strength.
17. And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me,
18. I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive forevermore, Amen; and have the keys of hades and of death.
19. Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
20. The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.
