8(A)I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, (B)I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
9But (C)he *said to me, “Do not do that. I am a (D)fellow servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those who (a)heed the words of (E)this book. Worship God.”
