Revelation 3:17 (100.00%)

Because you say, ‘I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing,’ and don’t know that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked;

Because G3754 thou sayest, G3004 (PresActInd) G3754 I am G1510 (PresInd) rich, G4145 and G2532 increased with goods, G4147 (PerfActInd) and G2532 have G2192 (PresActInd) need G5532 of nothing; G3762 and G2532 knowest G1492 (PerfActInd) not G3756 that G3754 thou G4771 art G1488 (PresInd) wretched, G5005 and G2532 miserable, G1652 and G2532 poor, G4434 and G2532 blind, G5185 and G2532 naked: G1131

because thou sayest-I am rich, and have grown rich, and have need of nothing, and hast not known that thou art the wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked,

Revelation 13:16 (100.00%)

And G2532 he causeth G4160 (PresActInd) all, G3956 both small G3398 and G2532 great, G3173 G2532 rich G4145 and G2532 poor, G4434 G2532 free G1658 and G2532 bond, G1401 to G2443 G846 receive G1325 (AorActSubj) a mark G5480 in G1909 their G846 right hand, G1188 G5495 or G2228 in G1909 their G846 foreheads: G3359

And it maketh all, the small, and the great, and the rich, and the poor, and the freemen, and the servants, that it may give to them a mark upon their right hand or upon their foreheads,
