"And to the angel of the church
in Smyrna write,

'These things says
the First and the Last,
who was dead, and came to life:
"I know your works,
tribulation, and poverty
(but you are rich);
and I know the blasphemy
of those who say they are Jews
and are not,
but are a synagogue of Satan.
Do not fear
any of those things which
you are about to suffer.
Indeed, the devil is about
to throw some of you into prison,
that you may be tested,
and you will have tribulation
ten days.
Be faithful until death, and
I will give you the crown of life.

"He who has an ear,
let him hear
what the Spirit says
to the churches.
He who overcomes
shall not be hurt
by the second death."'

Revelation 2:8-11
