Revelations, Chapter 13

¹ And the dragon stood on the sand of the^a Lit seaseashore. Then I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names. ² And the 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. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. ³ I saw one of his heads as if it had been^b Lit slaughtered to deathslain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast; ⁴ they worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?” ⁵ There was given to him a mouth speaking^c Lit great thingsarrogant words and blasphemies, and authority to act for forty-two months was given to him. ⁶ And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, those who^d Or tabernacledwell in heaven.	1 Dan 7:3 Rev 11:7 Rev 13:14 Rev 13:15 Rev 15:2 Rev 16:13 Rev 17:8 Rev 12:3 Rev 12:3 Rev 12:3 Rev 17:12 Dan 7:8 Dan 11:36 Rev 17:3 2 Dan 7:6 Hos 13:7 Dan 7:5 Dan 7:4 Rev 12:3 Rev 13:4 Rev 13:12 Rev 2:13 Rev 16:10 3 Rev 13:12 Rev 13:14 Rev 17:8 4 Rev 12:3 Rev 13:2 Rev 13:12 Rev 12:3 Rev 13:2 Rev 13:12 Exo 15:11 Isa 46:5 Rev 18:18 5 Dan 7:8 Dan 7:11 Dan 7:20 Dan 7:25 Dan 11:36 Th2 2:3 Rev 11:2 6 Rev 7:15 Rev 12:12
⁷ It was also given to him to make war with the^e Or holy onessaints and to overcome them, and authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him. ⁸ All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been^fwritten from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been slain. ⁹ If anyone has an ear, let him hear. ¹⁰ If anyone^g Or leads into captivityis destined for captivity, to captivity he goes; if anyone kills with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is the^h Or steadfastnessperseverance and the faith of theⁱ Or holy onessaints.	7 Dan 7:21 Rev 11:7 Rev 5:9 8 Rev 3:10 Rev 13:12 Rev 13:14 Rev 3:5 Mat 25:34 Rev 17:8 Psa 69:28 Rev 5:6 9 Rev 2:7 10 Isa 33:1 Jer 15:2 Jer 43:11 Gen 9:6 Mat 26:52 Rev 11:18 Heb 6:12 Rev 14:12
¹¹ Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon. ¹² He exercises all the authority of the first beast^j Or by his authorityin his presence. And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed. ¹³ He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men. ¹⁴ And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform^k Or by the authority ofin the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who *had the wound of the sword and has come to life. ¹⁵ And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even^lspeak and cause as many as do not worship the image of the beast to be killed. ¹⁶ And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves,^mto be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, ¹⁷ and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name. ¹⁸ Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number isⁿ One early ms reads 616six hundred and sixty-six.	11 Rev 13:1 Rev 16:13 Dan 8:3 Rev 13:4 12 Rev 13:4 Rev 13:14 Rev 19:20 Rev 13:8 Rev 13:15 Rev 14:9 Rev 14:11 Rev 16:2 Rev 19:20 Rev 20:4 Rev 13:3 13 Mat 24:24 Rev 16:14 Rev 19:20 Ki1 18:38 Luk 9:54 Rev 11:5 Rev 20:9 14 Rev 12:9 Rev 13:8 Th2 2:9 Rev 13:12 Rev 19:20 Rev 13:3 15 Dan 3:3 Rev 13:12 Rev 14:9 Rev 14:11 Rev 16:2 Rev 19:20 Rev 20:4 16 Rev 11:18 Rev 19:5 Rev 19:18 Gal 6:17 Rev 7:3 Rev 14:9 Rev 20:4 17 Gal 6:17 Rev 7:3 Rev 14:9 Rev 20:4 Rev 14:11 Rev 15:2 18 Rev 17:9 Rev 21:17
