Revelation 1

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants
ℵ ⟨saints⟩
 things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that
ℵA ⟨what things soever⟩
 he saw.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words
ℵ ⟨word⟩
 of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are
ℵA ⟨are⟩
 before his throne;
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved
ℵA ⟨loveth⟩
 us, and washed
ℵA ⟨freed⟩
 us from our
A omit
 sins in
ℵA ⟨by⟩
 his own blood,
6 And hath made us
A ⟨for us⟩
 kings and priests
ℵA ⟨a kingdom, priests⟩
 unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever
A omit
. Amen.
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him
ℵ ⟨him⟩
: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him
ℵ ⟨bewail him⟩
. Even so, Amen.
8 I am Alpha
ℵA ⟨the Alpha⟩
 and Omega
ℵ ⟨I am also the Omega⟩
, the beginning and the ending,
A omit
 saith the Lord
ℵA ⟨Lord God⟩
, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
9 I John, who also
ℵA omit
 am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of
ℵA ⟨the kingdom and patience in⟩
 Jesus Christ
ℵ ⟨Jesus⟩; A ⟨Christ⟩
, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for
A omit
 the testimony of Jesus Christ
ℵA omit
.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and,
ℵA omit
 What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia
ℵA omit
; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira
ℵ ⟨Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Smyrna⟩
, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea
ℵ ⟨Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea, and unto Sardis⟩
.
12 And I turned to see the voice that spake
A ⟨speaketh⟩
 with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
13 And in the midst of the seven
A omit
 candlesticks one
A ⟨something⟩
 like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand
A ⟨in his right hand were⟩
 seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was
ℵ ⟨shineth⟩
 as the sun shineth
ℵ omit
 in his strength.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand
ℵA ⟨hand⟩
 upon me, saying unto me, Fear not
ℵ omit; A ⟨Fear not⟩
; I am the first
A ⟨first-born⟩
 and the last:
18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen
ℵA omit
; and have the keys of hell and of death
ℵA ⟨death and of hell⟩
.
19 Write
ℵA ⟨Write therefore⟩
 the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be
ℵ ⟨must shortly come to pass⟩
 hereafter;
20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are
ℵ ⟨are⟩
 the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest
ℵA omit
 are the seven churches.

About the Pointing

The text of the Coverdale Psalter follows the 1928 American Book of Common Prayer. The pointing, suitably adapted, is taken from Charles Macpherson, Edward C. Bairstow, and Percy C. Buck, The English Psalter (Novello & Co., 1925).
