4 John to the seven congregations+ that are in the [district of] Asia:

May YOU have undeserved kindness and peace from “The One who is* and who was and who is coming,”+ and from the seven spirits+ that are before his throne,

6 And I saw standing in the midst of the throne+ and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the elders+ a lamb+ as though it had been slaughtered,+ having seven horns and seven eyes, which [eyes] mean* the seven* spirits+ of God that* have been sent forth into the whole earth.
