1ÂThe revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, 2Âwho testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. 3ÂBlessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.
