14 Blessed are those who awash their robes, so that they may have the right to bthe tree of life, and may center by the dgates into the city.

15 aOutside are the bdogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying.

16 “aI, Jesus, have sent bMy angel to testify to you these things 1cfor the churches. I am dthe root and the edescendant of David, the bright fmorning star.”

17 The aSpirit and the bbride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And clet the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wishes take the dwater of life without cost.

18 I testify to everyone who hears athe words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone badds to them, God will add to him cthe plagues which are written in dthis book;

19 and if anyone atakes away from the bwords of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from cthe tree of life and 1from the holy city, dwhich are written in this book.
