Line 17:
show unto his servants, [even] the things which must shortly
come to pass: and he sent and signified [it] by his angel unto
his servant John;
{{verse|1|2}} who bare witness of the word of God, and
of the testimony of Jesus Christ, [even] of all things that he
saw.
{{verse|1|3}} Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the
words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written
therein: for the time is at hand.
{{verse|1|4}} John to the seven
churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him who
is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits
that are before his throne;
{{verse|1|5}} and from Jesus Christ, [who
is] the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the
ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loveth us, and
loosed us from our sins by his blood;
{{verse|1|6}} and he made us [to
be] a kingdom, [to be] priests unto his God and Father; to him
[be] the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
{{verse|1|7}} Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him,
and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall
mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
{{verse|1|8}} I am the Alpha and the
Omega, saith the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to
come, the Almighty.
{{verse|1|9}} I John, your brother and partaker with
you in tribulation and kingdom and patience [which are] in
Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of
God and the testimony of Jesus.
{{verse|1|10}} I was in the Spirit on
the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a
trumpet
{{verse|1|11}} saying, What thou seest, write in a book and send
[it] to the seven churches: unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and
unto Pergamum, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto
Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
{{verse|1|12}} And I turned to see the
voice that spake with me. And having turned I saw seven golden
candlesticks;
{{verse|1|13}} and in the midst of the candlesticks one
like unto a son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot,
and girt about at the breasts with a golden girdle.
{{verse|1|14}} And
his head and his hair were white as white wool, [white] as snow;
and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
{{verse|1|15}} and his feet like
unto burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace;
and his voice as the voice of many waters.
{{verse|1|16}} And he had in
his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth proceeded a
sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun
shineth in his strength.
{{verse|1|17}} And when I saw him, I fell at
his feet as one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me,
saying, Fear not; I am the first and the last,
{{verse|1|18}} and the
Living one; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore,
and I have the keys of death and of Hades.
{{verse|1|19}} Write
therefore the things which thou sawest, and the things which
are, and the things which shall come to pass hereafter;
{{verse|1|20}} the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right
Line 109:
{{verse|2|2}} I know thy works, and thy toil and patience, and that thou
canst not bear evil men, and didst try them that call themselves
apostles, and they are not, and didst find them false;
{{verse|2|3}} and
thou hast patience and didst bear for my name's sake, and hast
not grown weary.
{{verse|2|4}} But I have [this] against thee, that thou
didst leave thy first love.
{{verse|2|5}} Remember therefore whence thou
art fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I come to
thee, and will move thy candlestick out of its place, except
thou repent.
{{verse|2|6}} But this thou hast, that thou hatest the
works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
{{verse|2|7}} He that hath
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To
him that overcometh, to him will I give to eat of the tree of
life, which is in the Paradise of God.
{{verse|2|8}} And to the angel of
the church in Smyrna write: These things saith the first and the
last, who was dead, and lived [again]:
{{verse|2|9}} I know thy
tribulation, and thy poverty (but thou art rich), and the
blasphemy of them that say they are Jews, and they art not, but
are a synagogue of Satan.
{{verse|2|10}} Fear not the things which thou
Line 144:
you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have
tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will
give thee the crown of life.
{{verse|2|11}} He that hath an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. He that overcometh
shall not be hurt of the second death.
{{verse|2|12}} and to the angel
of the church in Pergamum write: These things saith he that hath
the sharp two-edged sword:
{{verse|2|13}} I know where thou dwellest,
Line 158:
and didst not deny my faith, even in the days of Antipas my
witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan
dwelleth.
{{verse|2|14}} But I have a few things against thee, because
Line 164:
taught Balak to cast a stumblingblock before the children of
Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit
fornication.
{{verse|2|15}} So hast thou also some that hold the
teaching of the Nicolaitans in like manner.
{{verse|2|16}} Repent
therefore; or else I come to thee quickly, and I will make war
against them with the sword of my mouth.
{{verse|2|17}} He that hath an
Line 177:
that overcometh, to him will I give of the hidden manna, and I
will give him a white stone, and upon the stone a new name
written, which no one knoweth but he that receiveth it.
{{verse|2|18}} And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These things
saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like a flame of fire,
and his feet are like unto burnished brass:
{{verse|2|19}} I know thy
works, and thy love and faith and ministry and patience, and
that thy last works are more than the first.
{{verse|2|20}} But I have
Line 191:
calleth herself a prophetess; and she teacheth and seduceth my
servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to
idols.
{{verse|2|21}} And I gave her time that she should repent; and
she willeth not to repent of her fornication.
{{verse|2|22}} Behold, I
cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into
great tribulation, except they repent of her works.
{{verse|2|23}} And I
will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall
know that I am he that searcheth the reins and hearts: and I
will give unto each one of you according to your works.
{{verse|2|24}} But to you I say, to the rest that are in Thyatira, as many as
Line 212:
{{verse|2|26}} And he that overcometh, and he that keepeth my works unto
the end, to him will I give authority over the nations:
{{verse|2|27}} and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of the
potter are broken to shivers; as I also have received of my
Father:
{{verse|2|28}} and I will give him the morning star.
{{verse|2|29}} He
Line 229:
things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the
seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou
livest, and thou art dead.
{{verse|3|2}} Be thou watchful, and establish
the things that remain, which were ready to die: for I have
found no works of thine perfected before my God.
{{verse|3|3}} Remember
Line 242:
{{verse|3|4}} But thou hast a few names in Sardis that did not defile
their garments: and they shall walk with me in white; for they
are worthy.
{{verse|3|5}} He that overcometh shall thus be arrayed in
white garments; and I will in no wise blot his name out of the
book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and
before his angels.
{{verse|3|6}} He that hath an ear, let him hear what
the Spirit saith to the churches.
{{verse|3|7}} And to the angel of the
Line 259:
{{verse|3|8}} I know thy works (behold, I have set before thee a door
opened, which none can shut), that thou hast a little power, and
didst keep my word, and didst not deny my name.
{{verse|3|9}} Behold, I
Line 269:
will keep thee from the hour of trial, that [hour] which is to
come upon the whole world, to try them that dwell upon the
earth.
{{verse|3|11}} I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast,
that no one take thy crown.
{{verse|3|12}} He that overcometh, I will
Line 281:
{{verse|3|13}} He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
to the churches.
{{verse|3|14}} And to the angel of the church in
Laodicea write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and
true witness, the beginning of the creation of God:
{{verse|3|15}} I
know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou
wert cold or hot.
{{verse|3|16}} So because thou art lukewarm, and
neither hot nor cold, I will spew thee out of my mouth.
{{verse|3|17}} Because thou sayest, I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have
need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art the wretched one
and miserable and poor and blind and naked:
{{verse|3|18}} I counsel
Line 302:
rich; and white garments, that thou mayest clothe thyself, and
[that] the shame of thy nakedness be not made manifest; and
eyesalve to anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see.
{{verse|3|19}} As
many as I love, I reprove and chasten: be zealous therefore, and
repent.
{{verse|3|20}} Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man
hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to him, and will
sup with him, and he with me.
{{verse|3|21}} He that overcometh, I will
give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also
overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne.
{{verse|3|22}} He
Line 325:
heaven, and the first voice that I heard, [a voice] as of a
trumpet speaking with me, one saying, Come up hither, and I will
show thee the things which must come to pass hereafter.
{{verse|4|2}} Straightway I was in the Spirit: and behold, there was a throne
set in heaven, and one sitting upon the throne;
{{verse|4|3}} and he
that sat [was] to look upon like a jasper stone and a sardius:
and [there was] a rainbow round about the throne, like an
emerald to look upon.
{{verse|4|4}} And round about the throne [were]
four and twenty thrones: and upon the thrones [I saw] four and
twenty elders sitting, arrayed in white garments; and on their
heads crowns of gold.
{{verse|4|5}} And out of the throne proceed
lightnings and voices and thunders. And [there was] seven lamps
of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits
of God;
{{verse|4|6}} and before the throne, as it were a sea of glass
like a crystal; and in the midst of the throne, and round about
the throne, four living creatures full of eyes before and
behind.
{{verse|4|7}} And the first creature [was] like a lion, and the
Line 362:
{{verse|4|9}} And when the living creatures shall give glory and
honor and thanks to him that sitteth on the throne, to him that
liveth for ever and ever,
{{verse|4|10}} the four and twenty elders
Line 377:
{{verse|5|1}} And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the
throne a book written within and on the back, close sealed with
seven seals.
{{verse|5|2}} And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a
great voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the
seals thereof?
{{verse|5|3}} And no one in the heaven, or on the earth,
or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look
thereon.
{{verse|5|4}} And I wept much, because no one was found worthy
to open the book, or to look thereon:
{{verse|5|5}} and one of the
elders saith unto me, Weep not; behold, the Lion that is of the
tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath overcome to open the
book and the seven seals thereof.
{{verse|5|6}} And I saw in the midst
Line 399:
of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain,
having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits
of God, sent forth into all the earth.
{{verse|5|7}} And he came, and he
Line 407:
and the four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having
each one a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the
prayers of the saints.
{{verse|5|9}} And they sing a new song, saying,
Line 413:
thereof: for thou was slain, and didst purchase unto God with
thy blood [men] of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and
nation,
{{verse|5|10}} and madest them [to be] unto our God a kingdom
Line 421:
about the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and
the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and
thousands of thousands;
{{verse|5|12}} saying with a great voice,
Line 442:
{{verse|6|1}} And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals,
and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a
voice of thunder, Come.
{{verse|6|2}} And I saw, and behold, a white
Line 449:
{{verse|6|3}} And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second
living creature saying, Come.
{{verse|6|4}} And another [horse] came
forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to
take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one
another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
{{verse|6|5}} And
when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature
saying, Come. And I saw, and behold, a black horse; and he that
sat thereon had a balance in his hand.
{{verse|6|6}} And I heard as it
were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, A
measure of wheat for a shilling, and three measures of barley
for a shilling; and the oil and the wine hurt thou not.
{{verse|6|7}} And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the
fourth living creature saying, Come.
{{verse|6|8}} And I saw, and
Line 474:
them authority over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with
sword, and with famine, and with death, and by the wild beasts
of the earth.
{{verse|6|9}} And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw
underneath the altar the souls of them that had been slain for
the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
{{verse|6|10}} and they cried with a great voice, saying, How long, O Master,
the holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on
them that dwell on the earth?
{{verse|6|11}} And there was given them to
Line 488:
should rest yet for a little time, until their fellow-servants
also and their brethren, who should be killed even as they were,
should have fulfilled [their course].
{{verse|6|12}} And I saw when he
opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the
sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the whole moon became
as blood;
{{verse|6|13}} and the stars of the heaven fell unto the
earth, as a fig tree casteth her unripe figs when she is shaken
of a great wind.
{{verse|6|14}} And the heaven was removed as a scroll
when it is rolled up; and every mountain and island were moved
out of their places.
{{verse|6|15}} And the kings of the earth, and the
princes, and the chief captains, and the rich, and the strong,
and every bondman and freeman, hid themselves in the caves and
in the rocks of the mountains;
{{verse|6|16}} and they say to the
mountains and to the rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the
face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of
the Lamb:
{{verse|6|17}} for the great day of their wrath is come; and
Line 521:
corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that
no wind should blow on the earth, or on the sea, or upon any
tree.
{{verse|7|2}} And I saw another angel ascend from the sunrising,
having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a great
voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth
and the sea,
{{verse|7|3}} saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea,
nor the trees, till we shall have sealed the servants of our God
on their foreheads.
{{verse|7|4}} And I heard the number of them that
Line 556:
[all] tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne
and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their
hands;
{{verse|7|10}} and they cry with a great voice, saying,
Line 565:
throne, and [about] the elders and the four living creatures;
and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped
God,
{{verse|7|12}} saying,
Line 574:
{{verse|7|13}} And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, These
that are arrayed in white robes, who are they, and whence came
they?
{{verse|7|14}} And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he
said to me, These are they that come of the great tribulation,
and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of
the Lamb.
{{verse|7|15}} Therefore are they before the throne of God;
Line 586:
{{verse|7|16}} They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more;
neither shall the sun strike upon them, nor any heat:
{{verse|7|17}} for
Line 596:
{{verse|8|1}} And when he opened the seventh seal, there followed a
silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
{{verse|8|2}} And I
saw the seven angels that stand before God; and there were given
unto them seven trumpets.
{{verse|8|3}} And another angel came and stood
Line 608:
{{verse|8|4}} And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the
saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand.
{{verse|8|5}} And
the angel taketh the censer; and he filled it with the fire of
the altar, and cast it upon the earth: and there followed
thunders, and voices, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
{{verse|8|6}} And the seven angels that had the seven trumpets prepared
themselves to sound.
{{verse|8|7}} And the first sounded, and there
Line 622:
upon the earth: and the third part of the earth was burnt up,
and the third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green
grass was burnt up.
{{verse|8|8}} And the second angel sounded, and as
it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the
sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
{{verse|8|9}} and there
died the third part of the creatures which were in the sea,
[even] they that had life; and the third part of the ships was
destroyed.
{{verse|8|10}} And the third angel sounded, and there fell
from heaven a great star, burning as a torch, and it fell upon
the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of the
waters;
{{verse|8|11}} and the name of the star is called Wormwood: and
the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died
of the waters, because they were made bitter.
{{verse|8|12}} And the
Line 647:
that the third part of them should be darkened, and the day
should not shine for the third part of it, and the night in like
manner.
{{verse|8|13}} And I saw, and I heard an eagle, flying in mid
Line 658:
{{verse|9|1}} And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from
heaven fallen unto the earth: and there was given to him the key
of the pit of the abyss.
{{verse|9|2}} And he opened the pit of the
abyss; and there went up a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of
a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason
of the smoke of the pit.
{{verse|9|3}} And out of the smoke came forth
locusts upon the earth; and power was given them, as the
scorpions of the earth have power.
{{verse|9|4}} And it was said unto
them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither
any green thing, neither any tree, but only such men as have not
the seal of God on their foreheads.
{{verse|9|5}} And it was given them
that they should not kill them, but that they should be
tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a
scorpion, when it striketh a man.
{{verse|9|6}} And in those days men
shall seek death, and shall in no wise find it; and they shall
desire to die, and death fleeth from them.
{{verse|9|7}} And the shapes
of the locusts were like unto horses prepared for war; and upon
their heads as it were crowns like unto gold, and their faces
were as men's faces.
{{verse|9|8}} And they had hair as the hair of
women, and their teeth were as [teeth] of lions.
{{verse|9|9}} And they
had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound
of their wings was as the sound of chariots, of many horses
rushing to war.
{{verse|9|10}} And they have tails like unto scorpions,
and stings; and in their tails is their power to hurt men five
months.
{{verse|9|11}} They have over them as king the angel of the
abyss: his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek [tongue]
he hath the name Apollyon.
{{verse|9|12}} The first Woe is past: behold,
there come yet two Woes hereafter.
{{verse|9|13}} And the sixth angel
sounded, and I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar
which is before God,
{{verse|9|14}} one saying to the sixth angel that
had one trumpet, Loose the four angels that are bound at the
great river Euphrates.
{{verse|9|15}} And the four angels were loosed,
that had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year,
that they should kill the third part of men.
{{verse|9|16}} And the
number of the armies of the horsemen was twice ten thousand
times ten thousand: I heard the number of them.
{{verse|9|17}} And thus
Line 727:
having breastplates [as] of fire and of hyacinth and of
brimstone: and the heads of lions; and out of their mouths
proceedeth fire and smoke and brimstone.
{{verse|9|18}} By these three
Line 735:
{{verse|9|19}} For the power of the horses is in their mouth, and in
their tails: for their tails are like unto serpents, and have
heads; and with them they hurt.
{{verse|9|20}} And the rest of mankind,
Line 741:
works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and
the idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone,
and of wood; which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk:
{{verse|9|21}} and they repented not of their murders, nor of their sorceries,
Line 753:
{{verse|10|2}} and he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his
right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the earth;
{{verse|10|3}} and
he cried with a great voice, as a lion roareth: and when he
cried, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
{{verse|10|4}} And when
the seven thunders uttered [their voices], I was about to write:
and I heard a voice from heaven saying, Seal up the things which
the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.
{{verse|10|5}} And the
angel that I saw standing upon the sea and upon the earth lifted
up his right hand to heaven,
{{verse|10|6}} and sware by him that liveth
Line 772:
are therein, and the earth and the things that are therein, and
the sea and the things that are therein, that there shall be
delay no longer:
{{verse|10|7}} but in the days of the voice of the
seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then is finished they
mystery of God, according to the good tidings which he declared
to his servants the prophets.
{{verse|10|8}} And the voice which I heard
from heaven, [I heard it] again speaking with me, and saying,
Go, take the book which is open in the hand of the angel that
standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.
{{verse|10|9}} And I went unto
Line 788:
book. And he saith unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall
make thy belly bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet as
honey.
{{verse|10|10}} And I took the little book out of the angel's
hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and
when I had eaten it, my belly was made bitter.
{{verse|10|11}} And they
Line 802:
{{verse|11|1}} And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and one
said, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and
them that worship therein.
{{verse|11|2}} And the court which is without
the temple leave without, and measure it not; for it hath been
given unto the nations: and the holy city shall they tread under
foot forty and two months.
{{verse|11|3}} And I will give unto my two
witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and
threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
{{verse|11|4}} These are the two
olive trees and the two candlesticks, standing before the Lord
of the earth.
{{verse|11|5}} And if any man desireth to hurt them, fire
proceedeth out of their mouth and devoureth their enemies; and
if any man shall desire to hurt them, in this manner must he be
killed.
{{verse|11|6}} These have the power to shut the heaven, that it
rain not during the days of their prophecy: and they have power
over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth
with every plague, as often as they shall desire.
{{verse|11|7}} And
when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that
cometh up out of the abyss shall make war with them, and
overcome them, and kill them.
{{verse|11|8}} And their dead bodies [lie]
in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called
Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
{{verse|11|9}} And
from among the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations do
[men] look upon their dead bodies three days and a half, and
suffer not their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
{{verse|11|10}} And
they that dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and make merry;
and they shall send gifts one to another; because these two
prophets tormented them that dwell on the earth.
{{verse|11|11}} And
after the three days and a half the breath of life from God
entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great
fear fell upon them that beheld them.
{{verse|11|12}} And they heard a
great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And
they went up into heaven in the cloud; and their enemies beheld
them.
{{verse|11|13}} And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and
the tenth part of the city fell; and there were killed in the
earthquake seven thousand persons: and the rest were affrighted,
and gave glory to the God of heaven.
{{verse|11|14}} The second Woe is
past: behold, the third Woe cometh quickly.
{{verse|11|15}} And the
Line 871:
{{verse|11|16}} And the four and twenty elders, who sit before God on
their thrones, fell upon their faces and worshipped God,
{{verse|11|17}} saying,
We give thee thanks, O Lord God, the Almighty, who art and
who wast; because thou hast taken thy great power, and didst
reign.
{{verse|11|18}} And the nations were wroth, and thy wrath came,
Line 893:
{{verse|12|1}} And a great sign was seen in heaven: a woman arrayed
with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a
crown of twelve stars;
{{verse|12|2}} and she was the child; and she
Line 900:
{{verse|12|3}} And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold, a
great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his
heads seven diadems.
{{verse|12|4}} And his tail draweth the third part
of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the
dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered,
that when she is delivered he may devour her child.
{{verse|12|5}} And
she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the
nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto
God, and unto his throne.
{{verse|12|6}} And the woman fled into the
Line 918:
{{verse|12|7}} And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels
[going forth] to war with the dragon; and the dragon warred and
his angels;
{{verse|12|8}} And they prevailed not, neither was their
place found any more in heaven.
{{verse|12|9}} And the great dragon was
cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and
Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the
earth, and his angels were cast down with him.
{{verse|12|10}} And I
Line 933:
our God, and the authority of his Christ: for the accuser of our
brethren is cast down, who accuseth them before our God day and
night.
{{verse|12|11}} And they overcame him because of the blood of the
Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved
not their life even unto death.
{{verse|12|12}} Therefore rejoice, O
Line 946:
{{verse|12|13}} And when the dragon saw that he was cast down to the
earth, he persecuted the woman that brought forth the man
[child].
{{verse|12|14}} And there were given to the woman the two wings
of the great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness unto
her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and
half a time, from the face of the serpent.
{{verse|12|15}} And the
Line 959:
{{verse|12|16}} And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her
mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of
his mouth.
{{verse|12|17}} And the dragon waxed wroth with the woman,
Line 970:
beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns, and seven
heads, and on his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads names of
blasphemy.
{{verse|13|2}} And the beast which I saw was like unto a
leopard, and his feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his
mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power,
and his throne, and great authority.
{{verse|13|3}} And [I saw] one of
his heads as though it had been smitten unto death; and his
death-stroke was healed: and the whole earth wondered after the
beast;
{{verse|13|4}} and they worshipped the dragon, because he gave
his authority unto the beast; and they worshipped the beast,
saying, Who is like unto the beast? And who is able to war with
him?
{{verse|13|5}} and there was given to him a mouth speaking great
things and blasphemies; and there was given to him authority to
continue forty and two months.
{{verse|13|6}} And he opened his mouth
for blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name, and his
tabernacle, [even] them that dwell in the heaven.
{{verse|13|7}} And it
was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome
them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and
people and tongue and nation.
{{verse|13|8}} And all that dwell on the
earth shall worship him, [every one] whose name hath not been
written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of
the Lamb that hath been slain.
{{verse|13|9}} If any man hath an ear,
let him hear.
{{verse|13|10}} If any man [is] for captivity, into
captivity he goeth: if any man shall kill with the sword, with
the sword must he be killed. Here is the patience and the faith
of the saints.
{{verse|13|11}} And I saw another beast coming up out of
the earth; and he had two horns like unto lamb, and he spake as
a dragon.
{{verse|13|12}} And he exerciseth all the authority of the
first beast in his sight. And he maketh the earth and them dwell
therein to worship the first beast, whose death-stroke was
healed.
{{verse|13|13}} And he doeth great signs, that he should even
make fire to come down out of heaven upon the earth in the sight
of men.
{{verse|13|14}} And he deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by
Line 1,030:
the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they
should make an image to the beast who hath the stroke of the
sword and lived.
{{verse|13|15}} And it was given [unto him] to give
breath to it, [even] to the image to the breast, that the image
of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as should
not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
{{verse|13|16}} And
he causeth all, the small and the great, and the rich and the
poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark
on their right hand, or upon their forehead;
{{verse|13|17}} and that no
Line 1,055:
Zion, and with him a hundred and forty and four thousand, having
his name, and the name of his Father, written on their
foreheads.
{{verse|14|2}} And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice
of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and the
voice which I heard [was] as [the voice] of harpers harping with
their harps:
{{verse|14|3}} and they sing as it were a new song before
Line 1,066:
and no man could learn the song save the hundred and forty and
four thousand, [even] they that had been purchased out of the
earth.
{{verse|14|4}} These are they that were not defiled with women;
for they are virgins. These [are] they that follow the Lamb
whithersoever he goeth. These were purchased from among men, [to
be] the firstfruits unto God and unto the Lamb.
{{verse|14|5}} And in
their mouth was found no lie: they are without blemish.
{{verse|14|6}} And I saw another angel flying in mid heaven, having eternal
good tidings to proclaim unto them that dwell on the earth, and
unto every nation and tribe and tongue and people;
{{verse|14|7}} and he
saith with a great voice, Fear God, and give him glory; for the
hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made the
heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters.
{{verse|14|8}} And
another, a second angel, followed, saying, Fallen, fallen is
Babylon the great, that hath made all the nations to drink of
the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
{{verse|14|9}} And another
angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, If any
man worshippeth the beast and his image, and receiveth a mark on
his forehead, or upon his hand,
{{verse|14|10}} he also shall drink of
Line 1,099:
cup of his anger; and he shall be tormented with fire and
brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the
presence of the Lamb:
{{verse|14|11}} and the smoke of their torment
goeth up for ever and ever; and they have no rest day and night,
they that worship the beast and his image, and whoso receiveth
the mark of his name.
{{verse|14|12}} Here is the patience of the
saints, they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of
Jesus.
{{verse|14|13}} And I heard the voice from heaven saying, Write,
Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from henceforth: yea,
saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; for
their works follow with them.
{{verse|14|14}} And I saw, and behold, a
white cloud; and on the cloud [I saw] one sitting like unto a
son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand
sharp sickle.
{{verse|14|15}} And another angel came out from the
temple, crying with a great voice to him that sat on the cloud,
Send forth thy sickle, and reap: for the hour to reap is come;
for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
{{verse|14|16}} And he that sat on
the cloud cast his sickle upon the earth; and the earth was
reaped.
{{verse|14|17}} Another angel came out from the temple which is
in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
{{verse|14|18}} And another
Line 1,136:
he called with a great voice to him that had the sharp sickle,
saying, Send forth thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of
the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
{{verse|14|19}} And the angel cast his sickle into the earth, and gathered the
vintage of the earth, and cast it into the winepress, the great
[winepress], of the wrath of God.
{{verse|14|20}} And the winepress are
Line 1,151:
{{verse|15|1}} And I saw another sign in heaven, great and
marvellous, seven angels having seven plagues, [which are] the
last, for in them is finished the wrath of God.
{{verse|15|2}} And I saw
Line 1,157:
off victorious from the beast, and from his image, and from the
number of his name, standing by the sea of glass, having harps
of God.
{{verse|15|3}} And they sing the song of Moses the servant of
God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,
Great and marvellous are thy works, O Lord God, the Almighty;
righteous and true are thy ways, thou King of the ages.
{{verse|15|4}} Who shall not fear, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only
Line 1,169:
{{verse|15|5}} And after these things I saw, and the temple of the
tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:
{{verse|15|6}} and
there came out from the temple the seven angels that had the
seven plagues, arrayed with [precious] stone, pure [and] bright,
and girt about their breasts with golden girdles.
{{verse|15|7}} And one
of the four living creatures gave unto the seven angels seven
golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and
ever.
{{verse|15|8}} And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory
Line 1,190:
{{verse|16|1}} And I heard a great voice out of the temple, saying to
the seven angels, Go ye, and pour out the seven bowls of the
wrath of God into the earth.
{{verse|16|2}} And the first went, and
poured out his bowl into the earth; and it became a noisome and
grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and
that worshipped his image.
{{verse|16|3}} And the second poured out his
Line 1,202:
{{verse|16|4}} And the third poured out his bowl into the rivers and the
fountains of the waters; and it became blood.
{{verse|16|5}} And I heard
the angel of the waters saying, Righteous art thou, who art and
who wast, thou Holy One, because thou didst thus judge:
{{verse|16|6}} for they poured out the blood of the saints and the prophets,
and blood hast thou given them to drink: they are worthy.
{{verse|16|7}} And I heard the altar saying, Yea, O Lord God, the Almighty,
true and righteous are thy judgments.
{{verse|16|8}} And the fourth
poured out his bowl upon the sun; and it was given unto it to
scorch men with fire.
{{verse|16|9}} And men were scorched men with
great heat: and they blasphemed the name of God who hath the
power over these plagues; and they repented not to give him
glory.
{{verse|16|10}} And the fifth poured out his bowl upon the throne
of the beast; and his kingdom was darkened; and they gnawed
their tongues for pain,
{{verse|16|11}} and they blasphemed the God of
heaven because of their pains and their sores; and they repented
not of their works.
{{verse|16|12}} And the sixth poured out his bowl
upon the great river, the [river] Euphrates; and the water
thereof was dried up, that the way might by made ready for the
kings that [come] from the sunrising.
{{verse|16|13}} And I saw [coming]
out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the
beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean
spirits, as it were frogs:
{{verse|16|14}} for they are spirits of
demons, working signs; which go forth unto the kings of the
whole world, to gather them together unto the war of the great
day of God, the Almighty.
{{verse|16|15}} (Behold, I come as a thief.
Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he
walked naked, and they see his shame.)
{{verse|16|16}} And they gathered
them together into the place which is called in Hebrew
Har-magedon.
{{verse|16|17}} And the seventh poured out his bowl upon
the air; and there came forth a great voice out of the temple,
from the throne, saying, It is done:
{{verse|16|18}} and there were
lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and there was a great
earthquake, such as was not since there were men upon the earth,
so great an earthquake, so mighty.
{{verse|16|19}} And the great city
Line 1,267:
fell: and Babylon the great was remembered in the sight of God,
to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his
wrath.
{{verse|16|20}} And every island fled away, and the mountains
were not found.
{{verse|16|21}} And great hail, [every stone] about the
Line 1,282:
seven bowls, and spake with me, saying, Come hither, I will show
thee the judgment of the great harlot that sitteth upon many
waters;
{{verse|17|2}} with whom the kings of the earth committed
fornication, and they that dwell in the earth were made drunken
with the wine of her fornication.
{{verse|17|3}} And he carried me away
in the Spirit into a wilderness: and I saw a woman sitting upon
a scarlet-colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having
seven heads and ten horns.
{{verse|17|4}} And the woman was arrayed in
purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stone and
pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations,
even the unclean things of her fornication,
{{verse|17|5}} and upon her
forehead a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER
OF THE HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
{{verse|17|6}} And
I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with
the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I
wondered with a great wonder.
{{verse|17|7}} And the angel said unto me,
Wherefore didst thou wonder? I will tell thee the mystery of the
woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven
heads and the ten horns.
{{verse|17|8}} The beast that thou sawest was,
Line 1,317:
[they] whose name hath not been written in the book of life from
the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast, how
that he was, and is not, and shall come.
{{verse|17|9}} Here is the mind
that hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which
the woman sitteth:
{{verse|17|10}} and they are seven kings; the five
are fallen, the one is, the other is not yet come; and when he
cometh, he must continue a little while.
{{verse|17|11}} And the beast
that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the
seven; and he goeth into perdition.
{{verse|17|12}} And the ten horns
that thou sawest are ten kings, who have received no kingdom as
yet; but they receive authority as kings, with the beast, for
one hour.
{{verse|17|13}} These have one mind, and they give their power
and authority unto the beast.
{{verse|17|14}} These shall war against
the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them, for he is Lord of
lords, and King of kings; and they [also shall overcome] that
are with him, called and chosen and faithful.
{{verse|17|15}} And he
Line 1,351:
these shall hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate and
naked, and shall eat her flesh, and shall burn her utterly with
fire.
{{verse|17|17}} For God did put in their hearts to do his mind,
and to come to one mind, and to give their kingdom unto the
beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.
{{verse|17|18}} And the woman whom thou sawest is the great city, which reigneth
Line 1,364:
{{verse|18|1}} After these things I saw another angel coming down out
of heaven, having great authority; and the earth was lightened
with his glory.
{{verse|18|2}} And he cried with a mighty voice, saying,
Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and is become a habitation
of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of
every unclean and hateful bird.
{{verse|18|3}} For by the wine of the
Line 1,375:
kings of the earth committed fornication with her, and the
merchants of the earth waxed rich by the power of her
wantonness.
{{verse|18|4}} And I heard another voice from heaven,
saying, Come forth, my people, out of her, that ye have no
fellowship with her sins, and that ye receive not of her
plagues:
{{verse|18|5}} for her sins have reached even unto heaven, and
God hath remembered her iniquities.
{{verse|18|6}} Render unto her even
Line 1,392:
so much give her of torment and mourning: for she saith in her
heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall in no wise see
mourning.
{{verse|18|8}} Therefore in one day shall her plagues come,
death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned
with fire; for strong is the Lord God who judged her.
{{verse|18|9}} And
the kings of the earth, who committed fornication and lived
wantonly with her, shall weep and wail over her, when they look
upon the smoke of her burning,
{{verse|18|10}} standing afar off for the
fear of her torment, saying, Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon,
the strong city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
{{verse|18|11}} And the merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no
man buyeth their merchandise any more;
{{verse|18|12}} merchandise of
Line 1,414:
linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet; and all thyine wood,
and every vessel of ivory, and every vessel made of most
precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble;
{{verse|18|13}} and
Line 1,420:
frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and
cattle, and sheep; and [merchandise] of horses and chariots and
slaves; and souls of men.
{{verse|18|14}} And the fruits which thy soul
lusted after are gone from thee, and all things that were dainty
and sumptuous are perished from thee, and [men] shall find them
no more at all.
{{verse|18|15}} The merchants of these things, who were
made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her
torment, weeping and mourning;
{{verse|18|16}} saying, Woe, woe, the
Line 1,438:
every shipmaster, and every one that saileth any wither, and
mariners, and as many as gain their living by sea, stood afar
off,
{{verse|18|18}} and cried out as they looked upon the smoke of her
burning, saying, What [city] is like the great city?
{{verse|18|19}} And
Line 1,447:
saying, Woe, woe, the great city, wherein all that had their
ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her costliness! for
in one hour is she made desolate.
{{verse|18|20}} Rejoice over her, thou
heaven, and ye saints, and ye apostles, and ye prophets; for God
hath judged your judgment on her.
{{verse|18|21}} And a strong angel
Line 1,462:
craftsman, of whatsoever craft, shall be found any more at all
in thee; and the voice of a mill shall be heard no more at all
in thee;
{{verse|18|23}} and the light of a lamp shall shine no more at
Line 1,468:
shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were
the princes of the earth; for with thy sorcery were all the
nations deceived.
{{verse|18|24}} And in her was found the blood of
Line 1,479:
a great multitude in heaven, saying,
Hallelujah; Salvation, and glory, and power, belong to our
God:
{{verse|19|2}} for true and righteous are his judgments; for he
Line 1,487:
{{verse|19|3}} And a second time they say, Hallelujah. And her smoke
goeth up for ever and ever.
{{verse|19|4}} And the four and twenty
elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped
God that sitteth on the throne, saying, Amen; Hallelujah.
{{verse|19|5}} And a voice came forth from the throne, saying,
Line 1,504:
{{verse|19|7}} Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the
glory unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his
wife hath made herself ready.
{{verse|19|8}} And it was given unto her
Line 1,512:
{{verse|19|9}} And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they that are
bidden to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me,
These are true words of God.
{{verse|19|10}} And I fell down before his
Line 1,518:
am a fellow-servant with thee and with thy brethren that hold
the testimony of Jesus: worship God; for the testimony of Jesus
is the spirit of prophecy.
{{verse|19|11}} And I saw the heaven opened;
Line 1,526:
{{verse|19|12}} And his eyes [are] a flame of fire, and upon his head
[are] many diadems; and he hath a name written which no one
knoweth but he himself.
{{verse|19|13}} And he [is] arrayed in a garment
Line 1,532:
{{verse|19|14}} And the armies which are in heaven followed him upon
white horses, clothed in fine linen, white [and] pure.
{{verse|19|15}} And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp sword, that with it he
should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of
iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness of the
wrath of God, the Almighty.
{{verse|19|16}} And he hath on his garment
and on his thigh a name written, KINGS OF KINGS, AND LORD OF
LORDS.
{{verse|19|17}} And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he
cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid
heaven, Come [and] be gathered together unto the great supper of
God;
{{verse|19|18}} that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh
of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of
horses and of them that sit thereon, and the flesh of all men,
both free and bond, and small and great.
{{verse|19|19}} And I saw the
beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered
together to make war against him that sat upon the horse, and
against his army.
{{verse|19|20}} And the beast was taken, and with him
Line 1,562:
he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast and
them that worshipped his image: they two were cast alive into
the lake of fire that burneth with brimstone:
{{verse|19|21}} and the
Line 1,572:
{{verse|20|1}} And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having
the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.
{{verse|20|2}} And
he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil
and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
{{verse|20|3}} and cast
Line 1,582:
that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand
years should be finished: after this he must be loosed for a
little time.
{{verse|20|4}} And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them,
Line 1,590:
image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon
their hand; and they lived, and reigned with Christ a thousand
years.
{{verse|20|5}} The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand
years should be finished. This is the first resurrection.
{{verse|20|6}} Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection:
over these the second death hath no power; but they shall be
priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a
thousand years.
{{verse|20|7}} And when the thousand years are finished,
Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
{{verse|20|8}} and shall come
forth to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of
the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war:
the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
{{verse|20|9}} And they
went up over the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of
the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down out
of heaven, and devoured them.
{{verse|20|10}} And the devil that
deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone,
where are also the beast and the false prophet; and they shall
be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
{{verse|20|11}} And I saw
a great white throne, and him that sat upon it, from whose face
the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place
for them.
{{verse|20|12}} And I saw the dead, the great and the small,
Line 1,627:
book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were
judged out of the things which were written in the books,
according to their works.
{{verse|20|13}} And the sea gave up the dead
that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were
in them: and they were judged every man according to their
works.
{{verse|20|14}} And death and Hades were cast into the lake of
fire. This is the second death, [even] the lake of fire.
{{verse|20|15}} And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was
Line 1,644:
{{verse|21|1}} And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first
heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no
more.
{{verse|21|2}} And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down
out of heaven of God, made ready as a bride adorned for her
husband.
{{verse|21|3}} And I heard a great voice out of the throne
saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall
dwell with them, and they shall be his peoples, and God himself
shall be with them, [and be] their God:
{{verse|21|4}} and he shall wipe
away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more;
neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more:
the first things are passed away.
{{verse|21|5}} And he that sitteth on
the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he saith,
Write: for these words are faithful and true.
{{verse|21|6}} And he said
unto me, They are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega,
the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst
of the fountain of the water of life freely.
{{verse|21|7}} He that
overcometh shall inherit these things; and I will be his God,
and he shall be my son.
{{verse|21|8}} But for the fearful, and
Line 1,677:
sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part [shall be]
in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the
second death.
{{verse|21|9}} And there came one of the seven angels who
had the seven bowls, who were laden with the seven last plagues;
and he spake with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the
bride, the wife of the Lamb.
{{verse|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,
{{verse|21|11}} having the glory of God: her light was like unto a stone most
precious, as it were a jasper stone, clear as crystal:
{{verse|21|12}} having a wall great and high; having twelve gates, and at the
