Look, Jesus is coming with the clouds! Everyone will see him, even those who pierced[a] him. All peoples of the earth will cry loudly because of him. Yes, this will happen! Amen.

The Lord God says, “I am the Alpha and the Omega.[b] I am the one who is, who always was, and who is coming. I am the All-Powerful.”
