Revelation 1:13-19 CEV There with the lampstands was someone who seemed to be the Son of Man. He was wearing a robe that reached down to his feet, and a gold cloth was wrapped around his chest. (14) His head and his hair were white as wool or snow, and his eyes looked like flames of fire. (15) His feet were glowing like bronze being heated in a furnace, and his voice sounded like the roar of a waterfall. (16) He held seven stars in his right hand, and a sharp double-edged sword was coming from his mouth. His face was shining as bright as the sun at noon. (17) When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead person. But he put his right hand on me and said: Don't be afraid! I am the first, the last, (18) and the living one. I died, but now I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys to death and the world of the dead. (19) Write what you have seen and what is and what will happen after these things.
