Therefore, write the things which you have seen, and which are, and which must occur afterward:
20 the mystery of the seven stars (which *N+kO) you saw on the right hand of Me and the seven lampstands golden: The seven stars [the] angels of the seven churches are and the lampstands (that *N+kO) (you saw *K) seven [the] seven churches are.
the mystery of the seven stars, which you have seen in my right hand, and of the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the Angels of the seven Churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven Churches.”
