    1Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.

    2The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.

    3One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.

    4They worshiped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?"

    5A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.

    6He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his dwelling, those who dwell in heaven.

    7It was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.

    8All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

    9If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

    10If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.

    11I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon.

    12He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.

    13He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.

    14He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast; saying to those who dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.

    15It was given to him to give breath to it, to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn't worship the image of the beast to be killed.

    16He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or on their foreheads;

    10he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is prepared unmixed in the cup of his anger. He will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.

    11The smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. They have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.

    12Here is the patience of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

    7The angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.

    8The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and to go into destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, and shall be present.

    9Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.

    10They are seven kings. Five have fallen, the one is, the other has not yet come. When he comes, he must continue a little while.

    11The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction.

    12The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority as kings, with the beast, for one hour.

    13These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.

    15He said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.

    16The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, and will make her desolate, and will make her naked, and will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire.

    17For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, and to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.
