Let your loins be girded about, and {your} lights burning;

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Nevertheless I have {somewhat} against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
