1“To the1angel of the church of Ephesus write,‘These things says aHe who holds the seven stars in His right hand, bwho walks in the midst of the seven golden lampstands:
2a“I know your works, your labor, your1patience, and that you cannot2bear those who are evil. And byou have tested those cwho say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars;
3and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name’s sake and have anot become weary.
4Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love.
