12

And to the angel of the church in Pergamos say: These things says he who has the sharp two-edged sword:

13

I have knowledge that your living-place is where Satan has his seat: and you are true to my name, and were not turned away from your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my true witness, who was put to death among you, where Satan has his place.

14

But I have some things against you, because you have with you those who keep the teaching of Balaam, by whose suggestion Balak made the children of Israel go out of the right way, taking food which was offered to false gods, and going after the desires of the flesh.

15

And you have those who keep the teaching of the Nicolaitans.

16

See, then, that you have a change of heart or I will come to you quickly, and will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.

17

He who has ears, let him give ear to what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give of the secret manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name, of which no one has knowledge but he to whom it is given.
