Revelation 22:16 in Context — Revelation 22

14 Bienaventurados los que guardan sus mandamientos, para que su potencia sea en el árbol de la vida, y que entren por las puertas en la ciudad.

15 Mas los perros estarán fuera, y los hechiceros, y los disolutos, y los homicidas, y los idólatras, y cualquiera que ama y hace mentira.

16 Yo Jesús he enviado mi ángel para daros testimonio de estas cosas en las iglesias. Yo soy la raíz y el linaje de David, la estrella resplandeciente, y de la mañana.

17 Y el Espíritu y la Esposa dicen: Ven. Y el que oye, diga: Ven. Y el que tiene sed, venga: y el que quiere, tome del agua de la vida de balde.

18 Porque yo protesto á cualquiera que oye las palabras de la profecía de este libro: Si alguno añadiere á estas cosas, Dios pondrá sobre él las plagas que están escritas en este libro.
