Exegesis
The genitive tou bibliou toutou {τοῦ βιβλίου τούτου | toû bi-blí-ou toú-tou} further qualifies the prophecy as belonging to “this book,” emphasizing the written form of the revelation. The two distinct sentences in English preserve the rhetorical force of both the announcement and the blessing.
In context — Revelation 22:7
And look, I am coming quickly. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book .
