Revelation 1:16-18

Tree of Life Version

^{[a] 16} In His right hand He held seven stars, and out of His mouth came forth a sharp, two-edged sword.^[b] His face was like the sun shining at full strength.^[c]

¹⁷ When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man.^[d] But He placed His right hand on me, saying, “Do not be afraid! I am the First and the Last, ^{[e] 18} and the One who lives. I was dead, but look—I am alive forever and ever! Moreover, I hold the keys of death and Sheol.
