8. And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things says the first and the last, who was dead, and is alive;
9. I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but you are rich) and I know the blasphemy of them who say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10. Fear none of those things which you will suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you shall have tribulation ten days: be faithful unto death, and I will give you a crown of life.
11. He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; He that overcomes shall not be hurt of the second death.
12. And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write; These things says he who has the sharp sword with two edges;
13. I know your works and where you dwell, even where Satan's throne is: and you hold fast my name, and have not denied my faith, even in those days when Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwells.
