I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
I, John - your fellow believer and partner in hardship, as well as in Jesus's kingdom and endurance - was on an island named Patmos. This was because of God's message and my witness for Jesus Christ.
