3 Bem-aventurado [é] aquele que lê, e [também] os que ouvem as palavras desta profecia, e guardam as coisas nela escritas; porque o tempo [está] próximo.

4 João, às sete igrejas que estão na Ásia. Graça e paz sejam convosco, [provenientes] daquele que é, e que era, e que virá; e dos sete Espíritos que estão diante do trono dele;

5 E de Jesus Cristo, que é a fiel testemunha, o primogênito dos mortos, e Chefe dos reis da terra; àquele que nos amou, e em seu sangue nos lavou de nossos pecados;

6 E nos fez reis e sacerdotes a Deus e seu Pai; a ele [seja] a glória e o poder para todo o sempre, Amém!
