Revelations, Chapter 14

1 Then I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His name and the name of His Father written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder, and the voice which I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps. 3 And they *a Two early mss read sing something like a new songsang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one could learn the song except the one hundred and forty-four thousand who had been purchased from the earth. 4 These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for theyb Lit are chaste menhave kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been purchased from among men as first fruits to God and to the Lamb. 5 And no lie was found in their mouth; they are blameless.
6 And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to those whoc Lit sitlive on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people; 7 and he said with a loud voice, “Fear God, and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who made the heaven and the earth and sea and springs of waters.”
8 And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, “d Lit Babylon...fell, fell, she whoFallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who has made all the nations drink of the wine of thee Or wrathpassion of her immorality.”
9 Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mixedf Lit unmixed; in ancient times wine was usually diluted with waterin full strength in the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with fire andg I.e. burning sulphurbrimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, andh Lit if anyonewhoever receives the mark of his name.” 12 Here is thei Or steadfastnessperseverance of thej Or holy onessaints who keep the commandments of God andk Lit the faith oftheir faith in Jesus.
13 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Write, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on!’” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “so that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow with them.”
14 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one likel Or the Son of Mana son of man, having a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand. 15 And another angel came out of them Or sanctuarytemple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “n Lit Send forthPut in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the eartho Lit has become dryis ripe.” 16 Then He who sat on the cloudp Lit castswung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.
17 And another angel came out of theq Or sanctuarytemple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle. 18 Then another angel, the one who has power over fire, came out from the altar; and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “r Lit Send forthPut in your sharp sickle and gather the clusterss Lit offrom the vine of the earth, because her grapes are ripe.” 19 So the angelt Lit castswung his sickle to the earth and gathered the clusters from the vine of the earth, and threw them into the great wine press of the wrath of God. 20 And the wine press was trodden outside the city, and blood came out from the wine press, up to the horses’ bridles,u Lit fromfor a distance ofv Lit sixteen hundred stadia; a stadion was approx 600 fttwo hundred miles.
