“ See now that I, indeed I, am he!” says the LORD,“ and there is no other god besides me. I kill and give life, I smash and I heal, and none can resist my power.

你们如今要知道：我，惟有我是神；在我以外并无别神。我使人死，我使人活；我损伤，我也医治，并无人能从我手中救出来。

“‘如今，看！我，惟有我是上帝；我以外并无别神。我使人死，我使人活；我击伤人，也医治人，没有人能从我手中救出来。

“‘如今，看！我，惟有我是神；我以外并无别神。我使人死，我使人活；我击伤人，也医治人，没有人能从我手中救出来。

“‘你们要知道，唯有我是上帝；除我之外，别无他神。我掌管生死，我打伤、我医治；无人能逃出我的掌心。

现在你们要知道，只有我是那一位，除我以外，并没有别的神；我使人死，也使人活；我打伤，我也医治；没有人可以从我的手里抢救出去。

你們如今要知道：我，惟有我是神；在我以外並無別神。我使人死，我使人活；我損傷，我也醫治，並無人能從我手中救出來。

「『如今，看！我，惟有我是上帝；我以外並無別神。我使人死，我使人活；我擊傷人，也醫治人，沒有人能從我手中救出來。

「『如今，看！我，惟有我是神；我以外並無別神。我使人死，我使人活；我擊傷人，也醫治人，沒有人能從我手中救出來。

「『你們要知道，唯有我是上帝；除我之外，別無他神。我掌管生死，我打傷、我醫治；無人能逃出我的掌心。

現在你們要知道，只有我是那一位，除我以外，並沒有別的神；我使人死，也使人活；我打傷，我也醫治；沒有人可以從我的手裡搶救出去。

『「如今你們要看，我，惟有我乃是上帝，我以外、並沒有別的神；是我使人死，是我使人活；是我擊傷，也是我醫治；並沒有能從我手中搶救出去的。

當知我之為我、無神偕我、我使人死、亦使人生、我傷之、亦醫之、無能拯於我手、

爾當知我之為我、外此別無上帝、殺戮者我、生全者我、攻擊者我、施醫者我、無能奪於我手。

爾曹當知我之為我、在我之外別無天主、殺戮者我、生存者我、傷損者我、痊愈者我、無能救出我手、

“ See now that I myself am he! There is no god besides me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will heal, and no one can deliver out of my hand.

“ Look! I am the One! There is no other God except me. I put some people to death. I bring others to life. I have wounded, and I will heal. No one can save you from my power.

“‘ See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god beside me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

Look now; I myself am he! There is no other god but me! I am the one who kills and gives life; I am the one who wounds and heals; no one can be rescued from my powerful hand!

See now that I alone am he; there is no God but me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal. No one can rescue anyone from my power.

See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, And there is no one who can save anyone from My hand.

‘ Now see that I, even I, am He, And there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.

See now that I, even I, am he, And there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal; And there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

See now that I alone am He; there is no God but Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal. No one can rescue anyone from My hand.

See now that I,[ even] I,[ am] he, and[ there is] no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither[ is there any] that can deliver out of my hand.

“ See now that I myself am he. There is no god with me. I kill and I make alive. I wound and I heal. There is no one who can deliver out of my hand.

“ Come on! Let’s return to the LORD! He himself has torn us to pieces, but he will heal us! He has injured us, but he will bandage our wounds!

The LORD both kills and gives life; he brings down to the grave and raises up.

For he wounds, but he also bandages; he strikes, but his hands also heal.

Turn to me so you can be delivered, all you who live in the earth’s remote regions! For I am God, and I have no peer.

I am the LORD, I have no peer, there is no God but me. I arm you for battle, even though you do not recognize me.

From this day forward I am he; no one can deliver from my power; I will act, and who can prevent it?”

Even when you are old, I will take care of you, even when you have gray hair, I will carry you. I made you and I will support you; I will carry you and rescue you.

For this is what the LORD says, the one who created the sky– he is the true God, the one who formed the earth and made it; he established it, he did not create it without order, he formed it to be inhabited–“ I am the LORD, I have no peer.

Our God is a God who delivers; the LORD, the sovereign Lord, can rescue from death.

Who acts and carries out decrees? Who summons the successive generations from the beginning? I, the LORD, am present at the very beginning, and at the very end– I am the one.

Carefully consider this, you who reject God! Otherwise I will rip you to shreds and no one will be able to rescue you.

When the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said,“ Am I God? Can I kill or restore life? Why does he ask me to cure a man of his skin disease? Certainly you must see that he is looking for an excuse to fight me!”

But you remain; your years do not come to an end.

Listen to me, O Jacob, Israel, whom I summoned! I am the one; I am present at the very beginning and at the very end.

You have been taught that the LORD alone is God– there is no other besides him.

When I saw him I fell down at his feet as though I were dead, but he placed his right hand on me and said:“ Do not be afraid! I am the first and the last,and the one who lives! I was dead, but look, now I am alive– forever and ever– and I hold the keys of death and of Hades!

although you know that I am not guilty, and that there is no one who can deliver out of your hand?

Those survivors from Jacob will live among the nations, in the midst of many peoples. They will be like a lion among the animals of the forest, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep, which attacks when it passes through; it rips its prey and there is no one to stop it.

“ To the angel of the church in Smyrna write the following:“ This is the solemn pronouncement of the one who is the first and the last, the one who was dead, but came to life:

and like a robe you will fold them up and like a garment they will be changed, but you are the same and your years will never run out.”

Thus I told you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

saying:“ Write in a book what you see and send it to the seven churches– to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”
