To the Church in Philadelphia

7 “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: ‘The words of ^wthe holy one, ^xthe true one, ^ywho has the key of David, ^zwho opens and no one will shut, who shuts and no one opens.

5 And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, ^kthe Lion ^lof the tribe of Judah, ^mthe Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”

16 ^h“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things ⁱfor the churches. I am ^jthe root and ^kthe descendant of David, ^lthe bright morning star.”
