Revelation 22:5-7
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
5 And there will be no more night. And they do not have a need of the light of a lamp and the light of the sun, because the Lord God will give-light upon them. And they will reign forever and ever.
The Angel Says, These Words Are Trustworthy And True. I, John, Heard And Saw These Things
6 And he[a] said to me, “These words are trustworthy[b] and true. And the Lord, the God of the spirits[c] of the prophets, sent-forth His angel[d] to show[e] His slaves the things which must take place quickly. 7 And behold— I[f] am coming quickly. Blessed is the one keeping the words of the prophecy of this book”.
