Ye shall be blessed, when men shall hate you, and separate you away, and put reproof to you [or shall put shame on you], and cast out your name as evil, for man’s Son.
Blessed is the man, that suffereth temptation; for when he shall be proved, he shall receive the crown of life, which God promised to men that love him.
Dread thou nothing of these things, which thou shalt suffer. Lo! the devil shall send some of you into prison, that ye be tempted [or ye be proved]; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful to the death, and I shall give to thee a crown of life.
He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh I shall give angel meat hid [or manna]; and I shall give to him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth, but he that taketh.
He that hath ears, hear he, what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, I shall give to eat of the tree of life, that is in the paradise of my God.
