Revelation 1:16-18
Holman Christian Standard Bible
16 He had seven stars in His right hand; a sharp double-edged sword came from His mouth,(A) and His face was shining like the sun at midday.[a]
17 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. He laid His right hand on me and said, “Don’t be afraid! I am the First and the Last,(B) 18 and the Living One. I was dead, but look—I am alive forever and ever, and I hold the keys of death and Hades.
