7 “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: ‘The words of the holy one, the ^ktrue one, who has the ^lkey of David, who opens and no one will shut, who shuts and no one opens.

8 “‘I know your works. Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have ^mkept my word and have not denied my name. 9 Behold, I will make those of the ⁿsynagogue of Satan who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie—behold, I will make them come and ^obow down before your feet, and they will learn that I have ^ploved you. 10 Because you have kept my word about patient endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth. 11 ^qI am coming soon. ^rHold fast what you have, so that no one may seize your ^scrown. 12 The one who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God. Never shall he go out of it, and I will ^twrite on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, ^uthe new Jerusalem, which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own ^vnew name. 13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
