² I know thy works and thy labor and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them that are evil; and how thou hast tried them that say they are apostles and are not, and hast found them liars;

³ and hast borne, and hast patience, and for My name’s sake hast labored and hast not fainted.

⁴ Nevertheless, I have something against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
