Revelation from the Last Verse.

Rev 1:1
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what
must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant
John,
|
>
|
Rev 22:21
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people. Amen.
|
|
1:2 who testifies to everything
he saw-- that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
|
|
22:20 He who testifies to these things says,
"Yes, I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
|
|
1:3 Blessed is the one who reads
the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to
heart what is written in it, because the time is near.
|
|
22:19 And if anyone takes words away from this
book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life
and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
|
|
1:4 John, To the seven churches
in the province of Asia: Grace and peace to you from him who is, and who was,
and who is to come, and from the seven spirits before his throne,
|
|
22:18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the
prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him
the plagues described in this book.
|
|
1:5 and from Jesus Christ, who
is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the
kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his
blood,
|
|
22:17 The Spirit and the bride say,
"Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is
thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the
water of life.
|
|
1:6 and has made us to be a
kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father-- to him be glory and power
for ever and ever! Amen.
|
|
22:16 "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give
you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of
David, and the bright Morning Star."
|
|
1:7 Look, he is coming with the
clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the
peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen.
|
|
22:15 Outside are the dogs, those who practice
magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone
who loves and practices falsehood.
|
|
1:8 "I am the Alpha and the
Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to
come, the Almighty."
|
|
22:14 Blessed are those who wash their robes,
that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates
into the city.
|
|
1:9 I, John, your brother and
companion in the suffering and kingdom and patient endurance that are ours in
Jesus, was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and the
testimony of Jesus.
|
|
22:13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and
the Last, the Beginning and the End.
|
|
1:10 On the Lord's Day I was in
the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet,
|
>
|
22:12 "Behold, I am coming soon! My reward
is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done.
|
|
1:11 which said: "Write on
a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna,
Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea."
|
|
22:11 Let him who does wrong continue to do
wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile; let him who does right
continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy."
|
|
1:12 I turned around to see the
voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden
lampstands,
|
|
22:10 Then he told me, "Do not seal up the
words of the prophecy of this book, because the time is near.
|
|
1:13 and among the lampstands
was someone "like a son of man," dressed in a robe reaching down to
his feet and with a golden sash around his chest.
|
|
22:9 But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am
a fellow servant with you and with your brothers the prophets and of all who
keep the words of this book. Worship God!"
|
|
1:14 His head and hair were
white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire.
|
|
22:8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these
things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the
feet of the angel who had been showing them to me
|
|
1:15 His feet were like bronze
glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters.
|
|
22:7 "Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed is
he who keeps the words of the prophecy in this book."
|
|
1:16 In his right hand he held
seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face
was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.
|
|
22:6 The angel said to me, "These words are
trustworthy and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent
his angel to show his servants the things that must soon take place."
|
|
1:17 When I saw him, I fell at
his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said:
"Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last.
|
|
22:5 There will be no more night. They will not
need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give
them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.
|
|
1:18 I am the Living One; I was
dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and
Hades.
|
|
22:4 They will see his
face, and his name will be on their foreheads.
|
|
1:19 "Write, therefore,
what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later.
|
|
22:3 No longer will there be any curse. The
throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will
serve him.
|
|
1:20 The mystery of the seven
stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lampstands is
this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven
lampstands are the seven churches.
|
>
|
22:2 down the middle of the great street of the
city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops
of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for
the healing of the nations.
|
|
Rev 2:1 "To the angel of the church in Ephesus
write: These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand
and walks among the seven golden lampstands:
|
|
Rev 22:1 Then
the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal,
flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb
|
|
2:2 I know your deeds, your hard
work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked men, that
you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found
them false.
|
|
21:27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will
anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are
written in the Lamb's book of life.
|
|
2:3 You have persevered and have
endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary.
|
|
21:26 The glory and honor of the nations will be
brought into it.
|
|
2:4 Yet I hold this against you:
You have forsaken your first love.
|
|
21:25 On no day will its gates ever be shut, for
there will be no night there.
|
|
2:5 Remember the height from
which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do
not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.
|
|
21:24 The nations will walk by its light, and the
kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it
|
|
2:6 But you have this in your
favor: You hate the practices of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
|
|
21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon
to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp
|
|
2:7 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give
the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
|
|
21:22 I did not see a temple in the city, because
the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple
|
|
2:8 "To the angel of the
church in Smyrna write: These are the words of him who is the First and the
Last, who died and came to life again.
|
|
21:21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each
gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold,
like transparent glass.
|
|
2:9 I know your afflictions and
your poverty-- yet you are rich! I know the slander of those who say they are
Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
|
|
21:20 the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian,
the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth
chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.
|
|
2:10 Do not be afraid of what
you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison
to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even
to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life.
|
>
|
21:19 The foundations of the city walls were
decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper,
the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
|
|
2:11 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes will not be hurt
at all by the second death.
|
|
21:18 The wall was made of jasper, and the city
of pure gold, as pure as glass.
|
|
2:12 "To the angel of the
church in Pergamum write: These are the words of him who has the sharp,
double-edged sword.
|
|
21:17 He measured its wall and it was 144 cubits thick, by man's measurement, which
the angel was using.
|
|
2:13 I know where you live--
where Satan has his throne. Yet you remain true to my name. You did not
renounce your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness,
who was put to death in your city-- where Satan lives.
|
|
21:16 The city was laid out like a square, as
long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be
12,000, stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long.
|
|
2:14 Nevertheless, I have a few
things against you: You have people there who hold to the teaching of Balaam,
who taught Balak to entice the Israelites to sin by eating food sacrificed to
idols and by committing sexual immorality.
|
|
21:15 The angel who talked with me had a
measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates and its walls.
|
|
2:15 Likewise you also have
those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
|
|
21:14 The wall of the city had twelve
foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
|
|
2:16 Repent therefore!
Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword
of my mouth.
|
|
21:13 There were three gates on the east, three
on the north, three on the south and three on the west.
|
|
2:17 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give
some of the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone with a new name
written on it, known only to him who receives it.
|
|
21:12 It had a great, high wall with twelve
gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the
names of the twelve tribes of Israel
|
|
2:18 "To the angel of the
church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes
are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze.
|
|
21:11 It shone with the glory of God, and its
brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as
crystal
|
|
2:19 I know your deeds, your
love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that you are now doing
more than you did at first.
|
>
|
21:10 And he carried me
away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City,
Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.
|
|
2:20 Nevertheless, I have this
against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess.
By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the
eating of food sacrificed to idols.
|
|
21:9 One of the seven angels who had the seven
bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will
show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."
|
|
2:21 I have given her time to
repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling.
|
|
21:8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the
vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the
idolaters and all liars-- their place will be in the fiery lake of burning
sulfur. This is the second death."
|
|
2:22 So I will cast her on a bed
of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer
intensely, unless they repent of her ways.
|
|
21:7 He who overcomes will inherit all this, and
I will be his God and he will be my son.
|
|
2:23 I will strike her children
dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and
minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.
|
|
21:6 He said to me: "It is done. I am the
Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will
give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life
|
|
2:24 Now I say to the rest of
you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned
Satan's so-called deep secrets (I will not impose any other burden on you):
|
|
21:5 He who was seated on the throne said,
"I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down,
for these words are trustworthy and true."
|
|
2:25 Only hold on to what you
have until I come.
|
|
21:4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes.
There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order
of things has passed away."
|
|
2:26 To him who overcomes and
does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations--
|
|
21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne
saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with
them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their
God.
|
|
2:27 'He will rule them with an
iron scepter; he will dash them to pieces like pottery'--just as I have
received authority from my Father.
|
|
21:2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem,
coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed
for her husband.
|
|
2:28 I will also give him the
morning star.
|
>
|
Rev 21:1 Then
I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth
had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.
|
|
2:29 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
|
|
20:15 If anyone's name was not found written in
the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
|
|
Rev
3:1 "To the angel of the church in Sardis
write: These are the words of him who holds the seven spirits of God and the
seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you
are dead.
|
|
20:14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the
lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.
|
|
3:2 Wake up! Strengthen what
remains and is about to die, for I have not found your deeds complete in the
sight of my God.
|
|
20:13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it,
and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was
judged according to what he had done.
|
|
3:3 Remember, therefore, what
you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But if you do not wake up,
I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to
you.
|
|
20:12 And I saw the dead, great and small,
standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened,
which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had
done as recorded in the books.
|
|
3:4 Yet you have a few people in
Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in
white, for they are worthy.
|
|
20:11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who
was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no
place for them.
|
|
3:5 He who overcomes will, like
them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of
life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels.
|
|
20:10 And the devil, who deceived them, was
thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet
had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
|
|
3:6 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
|
|
20:9 They marched across the breadth of the
earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire
came down from heaven and devoured them.
|
|
3:7 "To the angel of the
church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and
true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he
shuts no one can open.
|
|
20:8 and will go out to deceive the nations in
the four corners of the earth-- Gog and Magog-- to gather them for battle. In
number they are like the sand on the seashore.
|
|
3:8 I know your deeds. See, I
have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you
have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
|
>
|
20:7 When the thousand years are over, Satan
will be released from his prison
|
|
3:9 I will make those who are of
the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are
liars-- I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that
I have loved you.
|
|
20:6 Blessed and holy are those who have part in
the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they
will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand
years.
|
|
3:10 Since you have kept my
command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that
is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.
|
|
20:5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life
until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection.
|
|
3:11 I am coming soon. Hold on
to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.
|
|
20:4 I saw thrones on which were seated those
who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had
been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of
God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his
mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with
Christ a thousand years.
|
|
3:12 Him who overcomes I will
make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will
write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new
Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also
write on him my new name.
|
|
20:3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and
sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the
thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.
|
|
3:13 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
|
|
20:2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent,
who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.
|
|
3:14 "To the angel of the
church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and
true witness, the ruler of God's creation.
|
|
Rev 20:1 And
I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and
holding in his hand a great chain.
|
|
3:15 I know your deeds, that you
are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other!
|
|
19:21 The rest of them were killed with the sword
that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds
gorged themselves on their flesh.
|
|
3:16 So, because you are
lukewarm-- neither hot nor cold-- I am about to spit you out of my mouth.
|
>
|
19:20 But the beast was captured, and with him
the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With
these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and
worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of
burning sulfur.
|
|
3:17 You say, 'I am rich; I have
acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are
wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked.
|
|
19:19 Then I saw the beast and the kings of the
earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the
horse and his army.
|
|
3:18 I counsel you to buy from
me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to
wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes,
so you can see.
|
|
19:18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings,
generals, and mighty men, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all
people, free and slave, small and great."
|
|
3:19 Those whom I love I rebuke
and discipline. So be earnest, and repent.
|
|
19:17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who
cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in midair, "Come, gather
together for the great supper of God,
|
|
3:20 Here I am! I stand at the
door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in
and eat with him, and he with me.
|
|
19:16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this
name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
|
|
3:21 To him who overcomes, I
will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down
with my Father on his throne.
|
|
19:15 Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with
which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron
scepter." He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God
Almighty.
|
|
3:22 He who has an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit says to the churches."
|
|
19:14 The armies of heaven were following him,
riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.
|
|
Rev
4:1 After this I looked, and there before me
was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking
to me like a trumpet said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must
take place after this."
|
|
19:13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood,
and his name is the Word of God.
|
|
4:2 At once I was in the Spirit,
and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.
|
|
19:12 His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his
head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he
himself.
|
|
4:3 And the one who sat there
had the appearance of jasper and carnelian. A rainbow, resembling an emerald,
encircled the throne.
|
|
19:11 I saw heaven standing open and there before
me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice
he judges and makes war.
|
|
4:4 Surrounding the throne were
twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders. They
were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads.
|
>
|
19:10 At this I fell at his feet to worship him.
But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and
with your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the
testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."
|
|
4:5 From the throne came flashes
of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps
were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God.
|
|
19:9 Then the angel said to me, "Write:
'Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!'"
And he added, "These are the true words of God."
|
|
4:6 Also before the throne there
was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around
the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in
front and in back.
|
|
19:8 Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her
to wear." (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the saints.)
|
|
4:7 The first living creature
was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man,
the fourth was like a flying eagle.
|
|
19:7 Let us rejoice and be glad and give him
glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself
ready.
|
|
4:8 Each of the four living
creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under his
wings. Day and night they never stop saying: "Holy, holy, holy is the
Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come."
|
|
19:6 Then I heard what sounded like a great
multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder,
shouting: "Hallelujah! For our Lord God Almighty reigns.
|
|
4:9 Whenever the living
creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who
lives for ever and ever,
|
|
19:5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying:
"Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, both small and
great!"
|
|
4:10 the twenty-four elders fall
down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives for ever
and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say:
|
|
19:4 The twenty-four elders and the four living
creatures fell down and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they
cried: "Amen, Hallelujah!
|
|
4:11 "You are worthy, our
Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all
things, and by your will they were created and have their being."
|
|
19:3 And again they shouted: "Hallelujah!
The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever."
|
|
Rev 5:1 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat
on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven
seals.
|
|
19:2 for true and just are his judgments. He has
condemned the great prostitute who corrupted the earth by her adulteries. He
has avenged on her the blood of his servants."
|
|
5:2 And I saw a mighty angel
proclaiming in a loud voice, "Who is worthy to break the seals and open
the scroll?"
|
>
|
Rev 19:1 After
this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven
shouting: "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,
|
|
5:3 But no one in heaven or on
earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it.
|
|
18:24 In her was found the blood of prophets and
of the saints, and of all who have been killed on the earth."
|
|
5:4 I wept and wept because no
one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside.
|
|
18:23 The light of a lamp will never shine in you
again. The voice of bridegroom and bride will never be heard in you again.
Your merchants were the world's great men. By your magic spell all the
nations were led astray.
|
|
5:5 Then one of the elders said
to me, "Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of
David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven
seals."
|
|
18:22 The music of harpists and musicians, flute
players and trumpeters, will never be heard in you again. No workman of any
trade will ever be found in you again. The sound of a millstone will never be
heard in you again.
|
|
5:6 Then I saw a Lamb, looking
as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne, encircled by
the four living creatures and the elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes,
which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
|
|
18:21 Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the
size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, and said: "With
such violence the great city of Babylon will be thrown down, never to be
found again.
|
|
5:7 He came and took the scroll
from the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
|
|
18:20 Rejoice over her, O heaven! Rejoice, saints
and apostles and prophets! God has judged her for the way she treated
you.'"
|
|
5:8 And when he had taken it,
the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the
Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense,
which are the prayers of the saints.
|
|
18:19 They will throw dust on their heads, and
with weeping and mourning cry out: "'Woe! Woe, O great city, where all
who had ships on the sea became rich through her wealth! In one hour she has
been brought to ruin!
|
|
5:9 And they sang a new song:
"You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you
were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe
and language and people and nation.
|
|
18:18 When they see the smoke of her burning,
they will exclaim, 'Was there ever a city like this great city?'
|
|
5:10 You have made them to be a
kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."
|
|
18:17 In one hour such great wealth has been
brought to ruin!' "Every sea captain, and all who travel by ship, the
sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea, will stand far off.
|
|
5:11 Then I looked and heard the
voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand
times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and
the elders.
|
>
|
18:16 and cry out: "'Woe! Woe, O great city,
dressed in fine linen, purple and scarlet, and glittering with gold, precious
stones and pearls!
|
|
5:12 In a loud voice they sang:
"Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and
wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!"
|
|
18:15 The merchants who sold these things and
gained their wealth from her will stand far off, terrified at her torment.
They will weep and mourn
|
|
5:13 Then I heard every creature
in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in
them, singing: "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and
honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!"
|
|
18:14 "They will
say, 'The fruit you longed for is gone from you. All your riches and splendor
have vanished, never to be recovered.'
|
|
5:14 The four living creatures
said, "Amen," and the elders fell down and worshiped.
|
|
18:13 cargoes of cinnamon and spice, of incense,
myrrh and frankincense, of wine and olive oil, of fine flour and wheat;
cattle and sheep; horses and carriages; and bodies and souls of men.
|
|
Rev 6:1 I watched as the Lamb opened the first of
the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice
like thunder, "Come!"
|
|
18:12 cargoes of gold, silver, precious stones
and pearls; fine linen, purple, silk and scarlet cloth; every sort of citron
wood, and articles of every kind made of ivory, costly wood, bronze, iron and
marble;
|
|
6:2 I looked, and there before
me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he
rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.
|
|
18:11 "The merchants of the earth will weep
and mourn over her because no one buys their cargoes any more—
|
|
6:3 When the Lamb opened the
second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!"
|
|
18:10 Terrified at her
torment, they will stand far off and cry: "'Woe! Woe, O great city, O Babylon,
city of power! In one hour your doom has come!'
|
|
6:4 Then another horse came out,
a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and
to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword.
|
|
18:9 "When the kings of the earth who
committed adultery with her and shared her luxury see the smoke of her
burning, they will weep and mourn over her.
|
|
6:5 When the Lamb opened the
third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I
looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair
of scales in his hand.
|
|
18:8 Therefore in one day her plagues will
overtake her: death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for
mighty is the Lord God who judges her.
|
|
6:6 Then I heard what sounded like
a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a
day's wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage
the oil and the wine!"
|
>
|
18:7 Give her as much torture and grief as the
glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, 'I sit as queen;
I am not a widow, and I will never mourn.'
|
|
6:7 When the Lamb opened the
fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say,
"Come!"
|
|
18:6 Give back to her as she has given; pay her
back double for what she has done. Mix her a double portion from her own cup.
|
|
6:8 I looked, and there before
me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close
behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by
sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.
|
|
18:5 for her sins are piled up to heaven, and
God has remembered her crimes.
|
|
6:9 When he opened the fifth
seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of
the word of God and the testimony they had maintained.
|
|
18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say:
"Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so
that you will not receive any of her plagues;
|
|
6:10 They called out in a loud
voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the
inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?"
|
|
18:3 For all the nations have drunk the
maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery
with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive
luxuries."
|
|
6:11 Then each of them was given
a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of
their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was
completed.
|
|
18:2 With a mighty voice he shouted:
"Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons
and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable
bird.
|
|
6:12 I watched as he opened the
sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth
made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red,
|
|
Rev 18:1 After
this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and
the earth was illuminated by his splendor.
|
|
6:13 and the stars in the sky
fell to earth, as late figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong
wind.
|
|
17:18 The woman you saw is the great city that
rules over the kings of the earth.
|
|
6:14 The sky receded like a
scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.
|
|
17:17 " For God has put it into their hearts to accomplish his purpose by
agreeing to give the beast their power to rule, until God's words are
fulfilled.
|
|
6:15 Then the kings of the
earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and
every free man hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.
|
|
17:16 The beast and the ten horns you saw will
hate the prostitute. They will bring her to ruin and leave her naked; they
will eat her flesh and burn her with fire.
|
|
6:16 They called to the
mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of him
who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
|
>
|
17:16 Then the angel said to me, "The waters
you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and
languages.
|
|
6:17 For the great day of their
wrath has come, and who can stand?"
|
|
17:15 They will make war against the Lamb, but
the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings--
and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers."
|
|
Rev
7:1 After this I saw four angels standing at the
four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent
any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree.
|
|
17:14 They have one purpose and will give their
power and authority to the beast
|
|
7:2 Then I saw another angel
coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in
a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and
the sea:
|
|
17:13 "The ten horns you saw are ten kings
who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive
authority as kings along with the beast.
|
|
7:3 "Do not harm the land
or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants
of our God."
|
|
17:12 The beast who once was, and now is not, is
an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction.
|
|
7:4 Then I heard the number of
those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel.
|
|
17:11 They are also seven kings. Five have
fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must
remain for a little while.
|
|
7:5 From the tribe of Judah
12,000 were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben 12,000 from the tribe of Gad
12,000
|
|
17:10 "This calls for a mind with wisdom.
The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits
|
|
7:6 from the tribe of Asher
12,000, from the tribe of Naphtali
12,000, from the tribe of Manasseh
12,000,
|
|
17:9 . The beast, which you saw, once was,
now is not, and will come up out of the Abyss and go to his destruction. The
inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of
life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the
beast, because he once was, now is not, and yet will come.
|
|
7:7 from the tribe of Simeon
12,000, from the tribe of Levi 12,000 , from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,
|
|
17:8 Then the angel said to me: "Why are
you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the
beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns.
|
|
7:8 from the tribe of Zebulun
12,000, from the tribe of Joseph 12,000, from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000.
|
>
|
17:7 I saw that the woman was drunk with the
blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus. When I
saw her, I was greatly astonished.
|
|
7:9 After this I looked and
there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every
nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front
of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in
their hands.
|
|
17:6 This title was written on her forehead:
MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS
OF THE EARTH.
|
|
7:10 And they cried out in a
loud voice: "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and
to the Lamb."
|
|
17:4 The woman was dressed in purple and
scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a
golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her
adulteries.
|
|
7:11 All the angels were
standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living
creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,
|
|
17:3 Then the angel carried me away in the
Spirit into a desert. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was
covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns.
|
|
7:12 saying: "Amen! Praise
and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our
God for ever and ever. Amen!"
|
|
17:2 With her the kings of the earth committed
adultery and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of
her adulteries."
|
|
7:13 Then one of the elders
asked me, "These in white robes-- who are they, and where did they come
from?"
|
|
Rev 17:1 One
of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, "Come,
I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits on many
waters.
|
|
7:14 I answered, "Sir, you
know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great
tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of
the Lamb.
|
|
16:21 From the sky huge hailstones of about a
hundred pounds each fell upon men. And they cursed God on account of the
plague of hail, because the plague was so terrible.
|
|
7:15 Therefore, "they are
before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he
who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.
|
|
16:20 Every island fled away and the mountains
could not be found.
|
|
7:16 Never again will they
hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor
any scorching heat.
|
|
16:19 The great city split into three parts, and
the cities of the nations collapsed. God remembered Babylon the Great and
gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath.
|
|
7:17 For the Lamb at the center
of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living
water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
|
>
|
16:18 Then there came flashes of lightning,
rumblings, peals of thunder and a severe earthquake. No earthquake like it
has ever occurred since man has been on earth, so tremendous was the quake.
|
|
Rev 8:1 When he opened the seventh seal, there was
silence in heaven for about half an hour.
|
|
16:17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into
the air, and out of the temple came a loud voice from the throne, saying,
"It is done!"
|
|
8:2 And I saw the seven angels
who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets.
|
|
16:16 Then they gathered the kings together to
the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
|
|
8:3 Another angel, who had a
golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to
offer, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the
throne.
|
|
16:15 "Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed
is he who stays awake and keeps his clothes with him, so that he may not go
naked and be shamefully exposed."
|
|
8:4 The smoke of the incense,
together with the prayers of the saints, went up before God from the angel's
hand.
|
|
16:14 They are spirits of demons performing
miraculous signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather
them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty.
|
|
8:5 Then the angel took the
censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it on the earth; and
there came peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an
earthquake.
|
|
16:13 Then I saw three evil spirits that looked
like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the
beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
|
|
8:6 Then the seven angels who
had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
|
|
16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the
great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the
kings from the East.
|
|
8:7The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire
mixed with blood, and it was hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth
was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass
was burned up.
|
|
16:11and cursed the God
of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they refused to repent
of what they had done
|
|
8:8 The second angel sounded his
trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the
sea. A third of the sea turned into blood,
|
|
16:10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the
throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. Men gnawed
their tongues in agony
|
|
8:9 a third of the living
creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
|
|
16:9 They were seared by the intense heat and
they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but they
refused to repent and glorify him.
|
|
8:10 The third angel sounded his
trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third
of the rivers and on the springs of water--
|
>
|
16:8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the
sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire.
|
|
8:11 the name of the star is
Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the
waters that had become bitter.
|
|
16:7 And I heard the altar respond: "Yes,
Lord God Almighty, true and just are your judgments."
|
|
8:12 The fourth angel sounded
his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a
third of the stars, so that a third of them turned dark. A third of the day
was without light, and also a third of the night.
|
|
16:6 for they have shed the blood of your saints
and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink as they deserve."
|
|
8:13 As I watched, I heard an
eagle that was flying in midair call out in a loud voice: "Woe! Woe! Woe
to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be
sounded by the other three angels!"
|
|
16:5 Then I heard the angel in charge of the
waters say: "You are just in these judgments, you who are and who were,
the Holy One, because you have so judged;
|
|
Rev
9:1 The fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I
saw a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. The star was given the
key to the shaft of the Abyss.
|
|
16:4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the
rivers and springs of water, and they became blood.
|
|
9:2 When he opened the Abyss,
smoke rose from it like the smoke from a gigantic furnace. The sun and sky
were darkened by the smoke from the Abyss.
|
|
16:3 The second angel
poured out his bowl on the sea, and it turned into blood like that of a dead
man, and every living thing in the sea died.
|
|
9:3 And out of the smoke locusts
came down upon the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the
earth.
|
|
16:2 The first angel went and poured out his
bowl on the land, and ugly and painful sores broke out on the people who had
the mark of the beast and worshiped his image.
|
|
9:4 They were told not to harm
the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did
not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
|
|
Rev 16:1 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple
saying to the seven angels, "Go, pour out the seven bowls of God's wrath
on the earth."
|
|
9:5 They were not given power to
kill them, but only to torture them for five months. And the agony they
suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes a man.
|
|
15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from
the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the temple until
the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
|
|
9:6 During those days men will
seek death, but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude
them.
|
|
15:7 Then one of the four living creatures gave
to the seven angels seven golden bowls filled with the wrath of God, who
lives for ever and ever.
|
|
9:7 The locusts looked like
horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of
gold, and their faces resembled human faces.
|
>
|
15:6 Out of the temple came the seven angels
with the seven plagues. They were dressed in clean, shining linen and wore
golden sashes around their chests.
|
|
9:8 Their hair was like women's
hair, and their teeth were like lions' teeth.
|
|
15:5 After this I looked and in heaven the
temple, that is, the tabernacle of the Testimony, was opened.
|
|
9:9 They had breastplates like
breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the thundering of
many horses and chariots rushing into battle.
|
|
15:4 Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring
glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship
before you, for your righteous acts have been Rev ealed."
|
|
9:10 They had tails and stings
like scorpions, and in their tails they had power to torment people for five
months.
|
|
15:3 and sang the song of Moses the servant of
God and the song of the Lamb: "Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord
God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the ages.
|
|
9:11 They had as king over them
the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek,
Apollyon.
|
|
15:2 And I saw what looked like a sea of glass
mixed with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious
over the beast and his image and over the number of his name. They held harps
given them by God
|
|
9:12 The first woe is past; two
other woes are yet to come.
|
|
Rev 15:1 I
saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign: seven angels with the seven
last plagues-- last, because with them God's wrath is completed.
|
|
9:13 The sixth angel sounded his
trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the horns of the golden altar that
is before God.
|
|
14:20 They were trampled in the winepress outside
the city, and blood flowed out of the press, rising as high as the horses' bridles
for a distance of ,1,600 stadia.
|
|
9:14 It said to the sixth angel
who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great
river Euphrates."
|
|
14:19 The angel swung his sickle on the earth,
gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of God's wrath.
|
|
9:15 And the four angels who had
been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released
to kill a third of mankind.
|
|
14:18 Still another angel, who had charge of the
fire, came from the altar and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp
sickle, "Take your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from
the earth's vine, because its grapes are ripe."
|
|
9:16 The number of the mounted
troops was two hundred million. I heard their number.
|
>
|
14:17 Another angel came out of the temple in
heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.
|
|
9:17 The horses and riders I saw
in my vision looked like this: Their breastplates were fiery red, dark blue,
and yellow as sulfur. The heads of the horses resembled the heads of lions,
and out of their mouths came fire, smoke and sulfur.
|
|
14:16 So he who was seated on the cloud swung his
sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.
|
|
9:18 A third of mankind was
killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their
mouths.
|
|
14:15 Then another angel came out of the temple
and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, "Take
your sickle and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest of
the earth is ripe."
|
|
9:19 The power of the horses was
in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails were like snakes, having
heads with which they inflict injury.
|
|
14:14 I looked, and there before me was a white
cloud, and seated on the cloud was one "like a son of man" with a
crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand.
|
|
9:20 The rest of mankind that
were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their
hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver,
bronze, stone and wood-- idols that cannot see or hear or walk.
|
|
14:13 Then I heard a voice from heaven say,
"Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on."
"Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for
their deeds will follow them."
|
|
9:21 Nor did they repent of
their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.
|
|
14:12 This calls for patient endurance on the
part of the saints who obey God's commandments and remain faithful to Jesus.
|
|
Rev 10:1 Then I saw another mighty angel coming down
from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face
was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars.
|
|
14:11 And the smoke of their torment rises for
ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast
and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name."
|
|
10:2 He was holding a little
scroll, which lay open in his hand. He planted his right foot on the sea and
his left foot on the land,
|
|
14:10 he, too, will drink of the wine of God's
fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. He will
be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of
the Lamb.
|
|
10:3 and he gave a loud shout
like the roar of a lion. When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders
spoke.
|
|
14:9 A third angel followed them and said in a
loud voice: "If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his
mark on the forehead or on the hand,
|
|
10:4 And when the seven thunders
spoke, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven say, "Seal
up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down."
|
>
|
14:8 A second angel followed and said,
"Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great, which made all the nations drink
the maddening wine of her adulteries."
|
|
10:5 Then the angel I had seen
standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven.
|
|
14:7 He said in a loud voice, "Fear God and
give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who
made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water."
|
|
10:6 And he swore by him who
lives for ever and ever, who created the heavens and all that is in them, the
earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it, and said,
"There will be no more delay!
|
|
14:6 Then I saw another angel flying in midair,
and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth-- to
every nation, tribe, language and people.
|
|
10:7 But in the days when the
seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet, the mystery of God will be
accomplished, just as he announced to his servants the prophets."
|
|
14:5 No lie was found in their mouths; they are
blameless.
|
|
10:8 Then the voice that I had
heard from heaven spoke to me once more: "Go, take the scroll that lies
open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the
land."
|
|
14:4 These are those who did not defile
themselves with women, for they kept themselves pure. They follow the Lamb
wherever he goes. They were purchased from
among men and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb.
|
|
10:9 So I went to the angel and
asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, "Take it and eat
it. It will turn your stomach sour, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as
honey."
|
|
14:3 And they sang a new
song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders.
No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed
from the earth.
|
|
10:10 I took the little scroll
from the angel's hand and ate it. It tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth,
but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned sour.
|
|
14:2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the
roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was
like that of harpists playing their harps.
|
|
10:11 Then I was told, "You
must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages and kings."
|
|
Rev 14:1
Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount
Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his
name and his Father's name written on their foreheads.
|
|
Rev
11:1 I was given a reed like a measuring rod and
was told, "Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the
worshipers there.
|
|
13:18 This calls for wisdom. If anyone has
insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number.
His number is 666.
|
|
11:2 But exclude the outer
court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They
will trample on the holy city for 42 months.
|
>
|
13:17 so that no one could buy or sell unless he
had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
|
|
11:3 And I will give power to my
two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1260 days, clothed in
sackcloth."
|
|
13:16 He also forced everyone, small and great,
rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his
forehead,
|
|
11:4 These are the two olive
trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.
|
|
13:15 He was given power to give breath to the
image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to
worship the image to be killed.
|
|
11:5 If anyone tries to harm
them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies. This is how
anyone who wants to harm them must die.
|
|
13:14 Because of the signs he was given power to
do on behalf of the first beast, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He
ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the
sword and yet lived.
|
|
11:6 These men have power to
shut up the sky so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying;
and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth
with every kind of plague as often as they want.
|
|
13:13 And he performed great and miraculous
signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth in full view of
men.
|
|
11:7 Now when they have finished
their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and
overpower and kill them.
|
|
13:12 He exercised all the authority of the first
beast on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first
beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.
|
|
11:8 Their bodies will lie in
the street of the great city, which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt,
where also their Lord was crucified.
|
|
13:11 Then I saw another beast, coming out of the
earth. He had two horns like a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon.
|
|
11:9 For three and a half days
men from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies
and refuse them burial.
|
|
13:10 If anyone is to go into captivity, into
captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the
sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on
the part of the saints.
|
|
11:10 The inhabitants of the
earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts,
because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.
|
|
13:9 He who has an ear, let him hear.
|
|
11:11 But after the three and a
half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their
feet, and terror struck those who saw them.
|
|
13:8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship
the beast-- all whose names have not been written in the book of life
belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world.
|
|
11:12 Then they heard a loud
voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." And they went up
to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on.
|
>
|
13:7 He was given power to make war against the
saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe,
people, language and nation.
|
|
11:13 At that very hour there
was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand
people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and
gave glory to the God of heaven.
|
|
13:6 He opened his mouth to blaspheme God, and
to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven.
|
|
11:14 The second woe has passed;
the third woe is coming soon.
|
|
13:5 The beast was given a mouth to utter proud
words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for forty-two months.
|
|
11:15 The seventh angel sounded
his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: "The
kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ,
and he will reign for ever and ever."
|
|
13:4 Men worshiped the dragon because he had
given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked,
"Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?"
|
|
11:16 And the twenty-four
elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and
worshiped God,
|
|
13:3 One of the heads of the beast seemed to
have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world
was astonished and followed the beast.
|
|
11:17 saying: "We give
thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you
have taken your great power and have begun to reign.
|
|
13:2 The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but
had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon
gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority.
|
|
11:18 The nations were angry;
and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for
rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence
your name, both small and great-- and for destroying those who destroy the
earth."
|
|
Rev 13:1
And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming
out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his
horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.
|
|
11:19 Then God's temple in
heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant.
And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an
earthquake and a great hailstorm.
|
|
12:17 Then the dragon was enraged at the woman
and went off to make war against the rest of her offspring-- those who obey
God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
|
|
Rev 12:1 A
great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun,
with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.
|
|
12:16 But the earth helped the woman by opening
its mouth and swallowing the river that the dragon had spewed out of his
mouth.
|
|
12:2 She was pregnant and cried
out in pain as she was about to give birth.
|
|
12:15 Then from his mouth the serpent spewed
water like a river, to overtake the woman and sweep her away with the
torrent.
|
|
12:3 Then another sign appeared
in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven
crowns on his heads.
|
|
12:14 The woman was given the two wings of a
great eagle, so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the
desert, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time,
out of the serpent's reach.
|
|
12:4 His tail swept a third of
the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in
front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her
child the moment it was born.
|
|
12:13 When the dragon saw that he had been hurled
to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child.
|
|
12:5 She gave birth to a son, a
male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. And her child
was snatched up to God and to his throne.
|
|
12:12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who
dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone
down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is
short."
|
|
12:6 The woman fled into the
desert to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of
for , days.
|
|
12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb
and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as
to shrink from death.
|
|
12:7 And there was war in
heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and
his angels fought back.
|
<
|
12:10 Then I heard a
loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and
the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of
our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled
down.
|
|
12:8 But he was not strong
enough, and they lost their place in heaven.
|
<
|
12:9 The great dragon was hurled down-- that
ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray.
He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
