^16 (A)All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, ^(B)and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for ^[a]instruction in righteousness,

¹⁸ For assuredly, I say to you, ^(A)till heaven and earth pass away, one ^[a]jot or one ^[b]tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

A Warning

^18 [a]For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: ^(A)If anyone adds to these things, ^[b]God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; ¹⁹ and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, ^(B)God^[c] shall take away his part from the ^[d]Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

²⁰ knowing this first, that ^(A)no prophecy of Scripture is of any private ^[a]interpretation, ²¹ for ^(B)prophecy never came by the will of man, ^(C)but ^[b]holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
