Warning against adding to or taking away from the prophecy
At the conclusion of the book of Revelation, a solemn warning is given to everyone who hears the prophetic words in the book: Whoever adds anything to it, God will add to them the plagues written in this book. Whoever takes away from the words of this prophetic book, God will take away their share from the tree of life and from the holy city.
Uppenbarelseboken 22,18-19
18I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues written in this book.
Μαρτυρῶ ἐγὼ παντὶ τῷ ἀκούοντι τοὺς λόγους τῆς προφητείας τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου· ἐάν τις ἐπιθῇ ἐπʼ αὐτά, ⸀ἐπιθήσει ὁ θεὸς ἐπʼ αὐτὸν τὰς πληγὰς τὰς γεγραμμένας ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τούτῳ·
19And if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are written of in this book.
καὶ ἐάν τις ἀφέλῃ ἀπὸ τῶν λόγων τοῦ βιβλίου τῆς προφητείας ταύτης, ⸀ἀφελεῖ ὁ θεὸς τὸ μέρος αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ ξύλου τῆς ζωῆς καὶ ἐκ τῆς πόλεως τῆς ἁγίας, τῶν γεγραμμένων ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τούτῳ.
