20 Nevertheless I have [a]a few things against you, because you allow [b]that woman (A)Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, [c]to teach and seduce My servants (B)to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. 21 And I gave her time (C)to [d]repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent. 22 Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of [e]their deeds. 23 I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who (D)searches[f] the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.
