Revelation 1:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 And from Jesus Christ [a]which is that (A)faithful witness, and (B)that first begotten of the dead, and that Prince of the Kings of the earth, unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his (C)blood,
6 And made us (D)Kings and Priests unto God even his Father, to him, I say, be glory, and dominion for evermore, Amen.
7 Behold, he cometh with (E)clouds, and every [b]eye shall see him: yea, even they which pierced him through: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail before him, Even so, Amen.
