    10 If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity they will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword they will be killed. This calls for the endurance and faith of the saints.

    11 Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.

    12 It exercises all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and it makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed.

    13 It performs great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth in full view of the people.

    14 It deceives those who dwell on the earth by the signs it was allowed to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who live on the earth to make an image to the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived.

    15 It was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast so that the image of the beast could speak and cause all who would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

    16 It forces everyone—small and great, rich and poor, free and slave—to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,

    17 so that no one can buy or sell unless they have the mark: the name of the beast or the number of its name.

    18 This calls for wisdom: Let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and its number is 666.

    8 The beast you saw was, and is not, and is about to ascend from the abyss and go to destruction. Those who dwell on the earth, whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will marvel when they see the beast, because it was, is not, and yet is.

    9 This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits.

    10 They are also seven kings: five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. When he does come, he must remain for only a short time.

    11 The beast that was, and is not, is an eighth, but it belongs to the seven, and it goes to destruction.

    12 The ten horns you saw are ten kings, who have not yet received a kingdom, but they will receive authority as kings for one hour along with the beast.

    13 These kings have one purpose, and they will give their power and authority to the beast.
