    7Then the angel said to me, 'Why are you amazed? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast with the seven heads and ten horns that carries her.'

    14It 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.

    15It 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.

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

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

    18This 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.
