The Vision of the Son of Man

^9 (A)I, John, your ^(B)brother and ^(C)fellow partaker in the tribulation and ^(D)kingdom and ^[a](E)perseverance which are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos ^(F)because of the word of God and the witness of Jesus.

⁹ And when He opened the fifth seal, I saw ^(A)underneath the ^(B)altar the ^(C)souls of those who had been slain ^(D)because of the word of God, and because of the ^(E)witness which they had maintained;

¹⁷ So the dragon was enraged with the woman and went off to ^(A)make war with the rest of her ^(B)seed, who ^(C)keep the commandments of God and ^(D)have the witness of Jesus.

⁴ Then I saw ^(A)thrones, and ^(B)they sat on them, and ^(C)judgment was given to them. And I saw ^(D)the souls of those who had been beheaded because of ^[a]their ^(E)witness of Jesus and because of the word of God, and who also had not ^(F)worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the ^(G)mark on their forehead and on their hand. And they ^(H)came to life and ^(I)reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
