Revelation 19:8-10
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
8 And[a] authority was given to her to[b] clothe herself with shining clean fine-linen. For the fine-linen is the righteous-acts of the saints. 9 And he[c] says to me, “Write— ‘Blessed are the ones having been called[d] to the banquet of the wedding of the Lamb’”.
These Words Are True Words of God
And he says to me, “These[e] words are true ones of God”. 10 And I fell in front of his feet to give-worship[f] to him. And he says to me “See that you not do it. I am a fellow-slave of you and your brothers— the ones holding the testimony of [g] Jesus. Give-worship to God. For the testimony of [h] Jesus is the spirit[i] of prophecy”.
