Revelation 1:1-3

1 The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show his servants what must happen soon. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, [BL]

2 who gives witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ by reporting what he saw.

3 Blessed is the one [4] who reads aloud and blessed are those who listen to this prophetic message and heed what is written in it, for the appointed time is near. [BM]
