REVELATION |
REV
1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God
gave Him to show to His bond-servants, the things
which must shortly take place; and He sent and
communicated it by His angel to His bond-servant
John,
REV 1:2 who bore witness to the word of God
and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all
that he saw.
REV 1:3 Blessed is he who reads and those who
hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things
which are written in it; for the time is near.
REV 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 who are before His throne;
REV 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful
witness, the first-born of the dead, and the ruler
of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us, and
released us from our sins by His blood,
REV 1:6 and He has made us to be a kingdom,
priests to His God and Father; to Him be the glory
and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
REV 1:7 Behold, He is coming with the clouds,
and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced
Him; and all the tribes of the earth will mourn over
Him. Even so. Amen.
REV 1:8 "I am the
Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God,
"who is and who was and
who is to come, the Almighty."
REV 1:9 I, John, your brother and fellow
partaker in the tribulation and kingdom and
perseverance which are in Jesus, was on the island
called Patmos, because of the word of God and the
testimony of Jesus.
REV 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's
day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like the
sound of a trumpet,
REV 1:11 saying, "Write
in a book what you see, and send it to the seven
churches: to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum
and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia
and to Laodicea."
REV 1:12 And I turned to see the voice that
was speaking with me. And having turned I saw seven
golden lampstands;
REV 1:13 and in the middle of the lampstands
one like a son of man, clothed in a robe reaching to
the feet, and girded across His breast with a golden
girdle.
REV 1:14 And His head and His hair were
#663300 like #663300 wool, like snow; and His eyes
were like a flame of fire;
REV 1:15 and His feet were like burnished
bronze, when it has been caused to glow in a
furnace, and His voice was like the sound of many
waters.
REV 1:16 And in His right hand He held seven
stars; and out of His mouth came a sharp two-edged
sword; and His face was like the sun shining in its
strength.
REV 1:17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His
feet as a dead man. And He laid His right hand upon
me, saying, "Do not be
afraid; I am the first and the last,
REV 1:18 and the living
One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive
forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of
Hades.
REV 1:19 "Write
therefore the things which you have seen, and the
things which are, and the things which shall take
place after these things.
REV 1:20 "As for
the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My
right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the
seven stars are the angels of the seven churches,
and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.

REV
2:1 "To the angel of
the church in Ephesus write: The One who holds the
seven stars in His right hand, the One who walks
among the seven golden lampstands, says this:
REV 2:2 'I know your
deeds and your toil and perseverance, and that you
cannot endure evil men, and you put to the test
those who call themselves apostles, and they are
not, and you found them to be false;
REV 2:3 and you have
perseverance and have endured for My name's sake,
and have not grown weary.
REV 2:4 'But I have
this against you, that you have left your first
love.
REV 2:5 'Remember
therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and
do the deeds you did at first; or else I am coming
to you, and will remove your lampstand out of its
place - - unless you repent.
REV 2:6 'Yet this you
do have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans,
which I also hate.
REV 2:7 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches. To him who overcomes, I will grant to eat
of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of
God.'
REV 2:8 "And to
the angel of the church in Smyrna write: The first
and the last, who was dead, and has come to life,
says this:
REV 2:9 'I know your
tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich), and
the blasphemy by those who say they are Jews and are
not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
REV 2:10 'Do not fear
what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is
about to cast some of you into prison, that you may
be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days.
Be faithful until death, and I will give you the
crown of life.
REV 2:11 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches. He who overcomes shall not be hurt by the
second death.'
REV 2:12 "And to
the angel of the church in Pergamum write: The One
who has the sharp two-edged sword says this:
REV 2:13 'I know where
you dwell, where Satan's throne is; and you hold
fast My name, and did not deny My faith, even in the
days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who
was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
REV 2:14 'But I have a
few things against you, because you have there some
who hold the teaching of Balaam, who kept teaching
Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of
Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to
commit acts of immorality.
REV 2:15 'Thus you also
have some who in the same way hold the teaching of
the Nicolaitans.
REV 2:16 'Repent
therefore; or else I am coming to you quickly, and I
will make war against them with the sword of My
mouth.
REV 2:17 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give
some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a
#663300 stone, and a new name written on the stone
which no one knows but he who receives it.'
REV 2:18 "And to
the angel of the church in Thyatira write: The Son
of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His
feet are like burnished bronze, says this:
REV 2:19 'I know your
deeds, and your love and faith and service and
perseverance, and that your deeds of late are
greater than at first.
REV 2:20 'But I have
this against you, that you tolerate the woman
Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and she
teaches and leads My bond-servants astray, so that
they commit acts of immorality and eat things
sacrificed to idols.
REV 2:21 'And I gave
her time to repent; and she does not want to repent
of her immorality.
REV 2:22 'Behold, I
will cast her upon a bed of sickness, and those who
commit adultery with her into great tribulation,
unless they repent of her deeds.
REV 2:23 'And I will
kill her children with pestilence; and all the
churches will know that I am He who searches the
minds and hearts; and I will give to each one of you
according to your deeds.
REV 2:24 'But I say to
you, the rest who are in Thyatira, who do not hold
this teaching, who have not known the deep things of
Satan, as they call them - - I place no other burden
on you.
REV 2:25 'Nevertheless
what you have, hold fast until I come.
REV 2:26 'And he who
overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds until the end,
to him I will give authority over the nations;
REV 2:27 and he shall
rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of the
potter are broken to pieces, as I also have received
authority from My Father;
REV 2:28 and I will
give him the morning star.
REV 2:29 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches.'

REV
3:1 "And to the angel
of the church in Sardis write: He who has the seven
Spirits of God, and the seven stars, says this: 'I
know your deeds, that you have a name that you are
alive, but you are dead.
REV 3:2 'Wake up, and
strengthen the things that remain, which were about
to die; for I have not found your deeds completed in
the sight of My God.
REV 3:3 'Remember
therefore what you have received and heard; and keep
it, and repent. If therefore you will not wake up, I
will come like a thief, and you will not know at
what hour I will come upon you.
REV 3:4 'But you have a
few people in Sardis who have not soiled their
garments; and they will walk with Me in #663300; for
they are worthy.
REV 3:5 'He who
overcomes shall thus be clothed in #663300 garments;
and I will not erase his name from the book of life,
and I will confess his name before My Father, and
before His angels.
REV 3:6 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches.'
REV 3:7 "And to
the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: He
who is holy, who is true, who has the key of David,
who opens and no one will shut, and who shuts and no
one opens, says this:
REV 3:8 'I know your
deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door
which no one can shut, because you have a little
power, and have kept My word, and have not denied My
name.
REV 3:9 'Behold, I will
cause those of the synagogue of Satan, who say that
they are Jews, and are not, but lie - - behold, I
will make them to come and bow down at your feet,
and to know that I have loved you.
REV 3:10 'Because you
have kept the word of My perseverance, I also will
keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which
is about to come upon the whole world, to test those
who dwell upon the earth.
REV 3:11 'I am coming
quickly; hold fast what you have, in order that no
one take your crown.
REV 3:12 'He who
overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of
My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and
I will write upon him the name of My God, and the
name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which
comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new
name.
REV 3:13 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches.'
REV 3:14 "And to
the angel of the church in Laodicea write: The Amen,
the faithful and true Witness, the Beginning of the
creation of God, says this:
REV 3:15 'I know your
deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I would
that you were cold or hot.
REV 3:16 'So because
you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will
spit you out of My mouth.
REV 3:17 'Because you
say, "I am rich, and have become wealthy, and
have need of nothing," and you do not know that
you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind
and naked,
REV 3:18 I advise you
to buy from Me gold refined by fire, that you may
become rich, and #663300 garments, that you may
clothe yourself, and that the shame of your
nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to
anoint your eyes, that you may see.
REV 3:19 'Those whom I
love, I reprove and discipline; be zealous
therefore, and repent.
REV 3:20 'Behold, I
stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My
voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and
will dine with him, and he with Me.
REV 3:21 'He who
overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me
on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with
My Father on His throne.
REV 3:22 'He who has an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches.'"

REV
4:1 After these things I looked, and behold, a
door standing open in heaven, and the first voice
which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet
speaking with me, said, "Come up here, and I
will show you what must take place after these
things."
REV 4:2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and
behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and One
sitting on the throne.
REV 4:3 And He who was sitting was like a
jasper stone and a sardius in appearance; and there
was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald in
appearance.
REV 4:4 And around the throne were
twenty-four thrones; and upon the thrones I saw
twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in #663300
garments, and golden crowns on their heads.
REV 4:5 And from the throne proceed flashes
of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder. And
there were seven lamps of fire burning before the
throne, which are the seven Spirits of God;
REV 4:6 and before the throne there was, as
it were, a sea of glass like crystal; and in the
center and around the throne, four living creatures
full of eyes in front and behind.
REV 4:7 And the first creature was like a
lion, and the second creature like a calf, and the
third creature had a face like that of a man, and
the fourth creature was like a flying eagle.
REV 4:8 And the four living creatures, each
one of them having six wings, are full of eyes
around and within; and day and night they do not
cease to say, "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord
God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to
come."
REV 4:9 And when the living creatures give
glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the
throne, to Him who lives forever and ever,
REV 4:10 the twenty-four elders will fall
down before Him who sits on the throne, and will
worship Him who lives forever and ever, and will
cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
REV 4:11 "Worthy art Thou, our Lord and
our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for
Thou didst create all things, and because of Thy
will they existed, and were created."

REV
5:1 And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat
on the throne a book written inside and on the back,
sealed up with seven seals.
REV 5:2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming
with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the
book and to break its seals?"
REV 5:3 And no one in heaven, or on the
earth, or under the earth, was able to open the
book, or to look into it.
REV 5:4 And I began to weep greatly, because
no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look
into it;
REV 5:5 and one of the elders said to me,
"Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from
the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome
so as to open the book and its seven seals."
REV 5:6 And I saw between the throne (with
the four living creatures) and the elders a Lamb
standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven
eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out
into all the earth.
REV 5:7 And He came, and He took it out of
the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.
REV 5:8 And when He had taken the book, the
four living creatures and the twenty-four elders
fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp,
and golden bowls full of incense, which are the
prayers of the saints.
REV 5:9 And they sang a new song, saying,
"Worthy art Thou to take the book, and to break
its seals; for Thou wast slain, and didst purchase
for God with Thy blood men from every tribe and
tongue and people and nation.
REV 5:10 "And Thou hast made them to be
a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will
reign upon the earth."
REV 5:11 And I looked, and I heard the voice
of many angels around the throne and the living
creatures and the elders; and the number of them was
myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands,
REV 5:12 saying with a loud voice,
"Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive
power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and
glory and blessing."
REV 5:13 And every created thing which is in
heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on
the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying,
"To Him who sits on the throne, and to the
Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion
forever and ever."
REV 5:14 And the four living creatures kept
saying, "Amen." And the elders fell down
and worshiped.

REV
6:1 And I saw when the Lamb broke one of the
seven seals, and I heard one of the four living
creatures saying as with a voice of thunder,
"Come."
REV 6:2 And I looked, and behold, a #663300
horse, and he who sat on it had a bow; and a crown
was given to him; and he went out conquering, and to
conquer.
REV 6:3 And when He broke the second seal, I
heard the second living creature saying,
"Come."
REV 6:4 And another, a red horse, went out;
and to him who sat on it, it was granted to take
peace from the earth, and that men should slay one
another; and a great sword was given to him.
REV 6:5 And when He broke the third seal, I
heard the third living creature saying,
"Come." And I looked, and behold, a black
horse; and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in
his hand.
REV 6:6 And I heard as it were a voice in the
center of the four living creatures saying, "A
quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of
barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and
the wine."
REV 6:7 And when He broke the fourth seal, I
heard the voice of the fourth living creature
saying, "Come."
REV 6:8 And I looked, and behold, an ashen
horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and
Hades was following with him. And authority was
given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill
with sword and with famine and with pestilence and
by the wild beasts of the earth.
REV 6:9 And when He broke the fifth seal, I
saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had
been slain because of the word of God, and because
of the testimony which they had maintained;
REV 6:10 and they cried out with a loud
voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and
true, wilt Thou refrain from judging and avenging
our blood on those who dwell on the earth?"
REV 6:11 And there was given to each of them
a #663300 robe; and they were told that they should
rest for a little while longer, until the number of
their fellow servants and their brethren who were to
be killed even as they had been, should be completed
also.
REV 6:12 And I looked when He broke the sixth
seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun
became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the
whole moon became like blood;
REV 6:13 and the stars of the sky fell to the
earth, as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when
shaken by a great wind.
REV 6:14 And the sky was split apart like a
scroll when it is rolled up; and every mountain and
island were moved out of their places.
REV 6:15 And the kings of the earth and the
great men and the commanders and the rich and the
strong and every slave and free man, hid themselves
in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains;
REV 6:16 and they said to the mountains and
to the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the
presence of Him who sits on the throne, and from the
wrath of the Lamb;
REV 6:17 for the great day of their wrath has
come; and who is able to stand?"

REV
7:1 After this I saw four angels standing at the
four corners of the earth, holding back the four
winds of the earth, so that no wind should blow on
the earth or on the sea or on any tree.
REV 7:2 And I saw another angel ascending
from the rising of the sun, having the seal of the
living God; and he cried out with a loud voice to
the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the
earth and the sea,
REV 7:3 saying, "Do not harm the earth
or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the
bond-servants of our God on their foreheads."
REV 7:4 And I heard the number of those who
were sealed, one hundred and forty-four thousand
sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:
REV 7:5 from the tribe of Judah, twelve
thousand were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben
twelve thousand, from the tribe of Gad twelve
thousand,
REV 7:6 from the tribe of Asher twelve
thousand, from the tribe of Naphtali twelve
thousand, from the tribe of Manasseh twelve
thousand,
REV 7:7 from the tribe of Simeon twelve
thousand, from the tribe of Levi twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,
REV 7:8 from the tribe of Zebulun twelve
thousand, from the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand,
from the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand were
sealed.
REV 7:9 After these things I looked, and
behold, a great multitude, which no one could count,
from every nation and all tribes and peoples and
tongues, standing before the throne and before the
Lamb, clothed in #663300 robes, and palm branches
were in their hands;
REV 7:10 and they cry out with a loud voice,
saying, "Salvation to our God who sits on the
throne, and to the Lamb."
REV 7:11 And all the angels were standing
around the throne and around the elders and the four
living creatures; and they fell on their faces
before the throne and worshiped God,
REV 7:12 saying, "Amen, blessing and
glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and
power and might, be to our God forever and ever.
Amen."
REV 7:13 And one of the elders answered,
saying to me, "These who are clothed in the
#663300 robes, who are they, and from where have
they come?"
REV 7:14 And I said to him, "My lord,
you know." And he said to me, "These are
the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and
they have washed their robes and made them #663300
in the blood of the Lamb.
REV 7:15 "For this reason, they are
before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and
night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne
shall spread His tabernacle over them.
REV 7:16 "They shall hunger no more,
neither thirst anymore; neither shall the sun beat
down on them, nor any heat;
REV 7:17 for the Lamb in the center of the
throne shall be their shepherd, and shall guide them
to springs of the water of life; and God shall wipe
every tear from their eyes."

REV
8:1 And when He broke the seventh seal, there
was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
REV 8:2 And I saw the seven angels who stand
before God; and seven trumpets were given to them.
REV 8:3 And another angel came and stood at
the altar, holding a golden censer; and much incense
was given to him, that he might add it to the
prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar
which was before the throne.
REV 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, with
the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of
the angel's hand.
REV 8:5 And the angel took the censer; and he
filled it with the fire of the altar and threw it to
the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and
sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.
REV 8:6 And the seven angels who had the
seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them.
REV 8:7 And the first sounded, and there came
hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were
thrown to the earth; and a third of the earth was
burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up,
and all the green grass was burned up.
REV 8:8 And the second angel sounded, and
something like a great mountain burning with fire
was thrown into the sea; and a third of the sea
became blood;
REV 8:9 and a third of the creatures, which
were in the sea and had life, died; and a third of
the ships were destroyed.
REV 8:10 And the third angel sounded, and a
great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch,
and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the
springs of waters;
REV 8:11 and the name of the star is called
Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood;
and many men died from the waters, because they were
made bitter.
REV 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and a
third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third
of the stars were smitten, so that a third of them
might be darkened and the day might not shine for a
third of it, and the night in the same way.
REV 8:13 And I looked, and I heard an eagle
flying in midheaven, saying with a loud voice,
"Woe, woe, woe, to those who dwell on the
earth, because of the remaining blasts of the
trumpet of the three angels who are about to
sound!"

REV
9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a
star from heaven which had fallen to the earth; and
the key of the bottomless pit was given to him.
REV 9:2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and
smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke of a
great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened
by the smoke of the pit.
REV 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.
REV 9:4 And they were told that they should
not hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green
thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not
have the seal of God on their foreheads.
REV 9:5 And they were not permitted to kill
anyone, but to torment for five months; and their
torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it
stings a man.
REV 9:6 And in those days men will seek death
and will not find it; and they will long to die and
death flees from them.
REV 9:7 And the appearance of the locusts was
like horses prepared for battle; and on their heads,
as it were, crowns like gold, and their faces were
like the faces of men.
REV 9:8 And they had hair like the hair of
women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions.
REV 9:9 And they had breastplates like
breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings
was like the sound of chariots, of many horses
rushing to battle.
REV 9:10 And they have tails like scorpions,
and stings; and in their tails is their power to
hurt men for five months.
REV 9:11 They have as king over them, the
angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon,
and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon.
REV 9:12 The first woe is past; behold, two
woes are still coming after these things.
REV 9:13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I
heard a voice from the four horns of the golden
altar which is before God,
REV 9:14 one saying to the sixth angel who
had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who
are bound at the great river Euphrates."
REV 9:15 And the four angels, who had been
prepared for the hour and day and month and year,
were released, so that they might kill a third of
mankind.
REV 9:16 And the number of the armies of the
horsemen was two hundred million; I heard the number
of them.
REV 9:17 And this is how I saw in the vision
the horses and those who sat on them: the riders had
breastplates the color of fire and of hyacinth and
of brimstone; and the heads of the horses are like
the heads of lions; and out of their mouths proceed
fire and smoke and brimstone.
REV 9:18 A third of mankind was killed by
these three plagues, by the fire and the smoke and
the brimstone, which proceeded out of their mouths.
REV 9:19 For the power of the horses is in
their mouths and in their tails; for their tails are
like serpents and have heads; and with them they do
harm.
REV 9:20 And the rest of mankind, who were
not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the
works of their hands, so as not to 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;
REV 9:21 and they did not repent of their
murders nor of their sorceries nor of their
immorality nor of their thefts.

REV
10:1 And I saw another strong angel coming down
out of heaven, clothed with a cloud; and the rainbow
was upon his head, and his face was like the sun,
and his feet like pillars of fire;
REV 10:2 and he had in his hand a little book
which was open. And he placed his right foot on the
sea and his left on the land;
REV 10:3 and he cried out with a loud voice,
as when a lion roars; and when he had cried out, the
seven peals of thunder uttered their voices.
REV 10:4 And when the seven peals of thunder
had spoken, I was about to write; and I heard a
voice from heaven saying, "Seal up the things
which the seven peals of thunder have spoken, and do
not write them."
REV 10:5 And the angel whom I saw standing on
the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to
heaven,
REV 10:6 and swore by Him who lives forever
and ever, who created heaven and the things in it,
and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and
the things in it, that there shall be delay no
longer,
REV 10:7 but in the days of the voice of the
seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then the
mystery of God is finished, as He preached to His
servants the prophets.
REV 10:8 And the voice which I heard from
heaven, I heard again speaking with me, and saying,
"Go, take the book which is open in the hand of
the angel who stands on the sea and on the
land."
REV 10:9 And I went to the angel, telling him
to give me the little book. And he said to me,
"Take it, and eat it; and it will make your
stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet
as honey."
REV 10:10 And I took the little book out of
the angel's hand and ate it, and it was in my mouth
sweet as honey; and when I had eaten it, my stomach
was made bitter.
REV 10:11 And they said to me, "You must
prophesy again concerning many peoples and nations
and tongues and kings."

REV
11:1 And there was given me a measuring rod like
a staff; and someone said, "Rise and measure
the temple of God, and the altar, and those who
worship in it.
REV 11:2 "And leave out the court which
is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it
has been given to the nations; and they will tread
under foot the holy city for forty-two months.
REV 11:3 "And I will grant authority to
my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for twelve
hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth."
REV 11:4 These are the two olive trees and
the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the
earth.
REV 11:5 And if anyone desires to harm them,
fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their
enemies; and if anyone would desire to harm them, in
this manner he must be killed.
REV 11:6 These have the power to shut up the
sky, in order that rain may not fall during the days
of their prophesying; and they have power over the
waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the
earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
REV 11:7 And when they have finished their
testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss
will make war with them, and overcome them and kill
them.
REV 11:8 And their dead bodies will lie in
the street of the great city which mystically is
called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was
crucified.
REV 11:9 And those from the peoples and
tribes and tongues and nations will look at their
dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not
permit their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
REV 11:10 And those who dwell on the earth
will rejoice over them and make merry; and they will
send gifts to one another, because these two
prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
REV 11:11 And after the three and a half days
the breath of life from God came into them, and they
stood on their feet; and great fear fell upon those
who were beholding them.
REV 11:12 And they heard a loud voice from
heaven saying to them, "Come up here." And
they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their
enemies beheld them.
REV 11:13 And in that hour there was a great
earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; and seven
thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and
the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of
heaven.
REV 11:14 The second woe is past; behold, the
third woe is coming quickly.
REV 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and
there arose loud voices in heaven, saying, "The
kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our
Lord, and of His Christ; and He will reign forever
and ever."
REV 11:16 And the twenty-four elders, who sit
on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and
worshiped God,
REV 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 hast
begun to reign.
REV 11:18 "And the nations were enraged,
and Thy wrath came, and the time came for the dead
to be judged, and the time to give their reward to
Thy bond-servants the prophets and to the saints and
to those who fear Thy name, the small and the great,
and to destroy those who destroy the earth."
REV 11:19 And the temple of God which is in
heaven was opened; and the ark of His covenant
appeared in His temple, and there were flashes of
lightning and sounds and peals of thunder and an
earthquake and a great hailstorm.

REV
12:1 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a
woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her
feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;
REV 12:2 and she was with child; and she
cried out, being in labor and in pain to give birth.
REV 12:3 And another sign appeared in heaven:
and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads
and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems.
REV 12:4 And his tail swept away a third of
the stars of heaven, and threw them to the earth.
And the dragon stood before the woman who was about
to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might
devour her child.
REV 12:5 And she gave birth to a son, a male
child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of
iron; and her child was caught up to God and to His
throne.
REV 12:6 And the woman fled into the
wilderness where she had a place prepared by God, so
that there she might be nourished for one thousand
two hundred and sixty days.
REV 12:7 And there was war in heaven, Michael
and his angels waging war with the dragon. And the
dragon and his angels waged war,
REV 12:8 and they were not strong enough, and
there was no longer a place found for them in
heaven.
REV 12:9 And the great dragon was thrown
down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and
Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown
down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down
with him.
REV 12:10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven,
saying, "Now the salvation, and the power, and
the kingdom of our God and the authority of His
Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren
has been thrown down, who accuses them before our
God day and night.
REV 12:11 "And they overcame him because
of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of
their testimony, and they did not love their life
even to death.
REV 12:12 "For this reason, rejoice, O
heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth
and the sea, because the devil has come down to you,
having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short
time."
REV 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was
thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman
who gave birth to the male child.
REV 12:14 And the two wings of the great
eagle were given to the woman, in order that she
might fly into the wilderness to her place, where
she was nourished for a time and times and half a
time, from the presence of the serpent.
REV 12:15 And the serpent poured water like a
river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he
might cause her to be swept away with the flood.
REV 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and
the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river
which the dragon poured out of his mouth.
REV 12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the
woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her
offspring, who keep the commandments of God and hold
to the testimony of Jesus.

REV
13:1 And he stood on the sand of the seashore.
And 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.
REV 13:2 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.
REV 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as if it
had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And
the whole earth was amazed and followed after the
beast;
REV 13:4 and 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?"
REV 13:5 And there was given to him a mouth
speaking arrogant words and blasphemies; and
authority to act for forty-two months was given to
him.
REV 13:6 And he opened his mouth in
blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and
His tabernacle, that is, those who dwell in heaven.
REV 13:7 And it was given to him to make war
with the saints and to overcome them; and authority
over every tribe and people and tongue and nation
was given to him.
REV 13:8 And all 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 slain.
REV 13:9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
REV 13:10 If anyone is destined for
captivity, to captivity he goes; if anyone kills
with the sword, with the sword he must be killed.
Here is the perseverance and the faith of the
saints.
REV 13:11 And I saw another beast coming up
out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb,
and he spoke as a dragon.
REV 13:12 And he exercises all the authority
of the first beast in his presence. And he makes the
earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first
beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
REV 13:13 And he performs great signs, so
that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to
the earth in the presence of men.
REV 13:14 And he deceives those who dwell on
the earth because of the signs which it was given
him to perform in 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.
REV 13:15 And there was given to him to give
breath to the image of the beast, that the image of
the beast might even speak and cause as many as do
not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
REV 13:16 And he causes all, the small and
the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free
men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their
right hand, or on their forehead,
REV 13:17 and he provides that no one should
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.
REV 13:18 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 is six
hundred and sixty-six.

REV
14:1 And 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.
REV 14:2 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.
REV 14:3 And they sang 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.
REV 14:4 These are the ones who have not been
defiled with women, for they have 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.
REV 14:5 And no lie was found in their mouth;
they are blameless.
REV 14:6 And I saw another angel flying in
midheaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to
those who live on the earth, and to every nation and
tribe and tongue and people;
REV 14:7 and he said with a loud voice,
"Fear God, and give Him glory, because the hour
of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made
the heaven and the earth and sea and springs of
waters."
REV 14:8 And another angel, a second one,
followed, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon
the great, she who has made all the nations drink of
the wine of the passion of her immorality."
REV 14:9 And 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 upon his hand,
REV 14:10 he also will drink of the wine of
the wrath of God, which is mixed in full strength in
the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with
fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy
angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
REV 14:11 "And the smoke of their
torment goes up forever and ever; and they have no
rest day and night, those who worship the beast and
his image, and whoever receives the mark of his
name."
REV 14:12 Here is the perseverance of the
saints who keep the commandments of God and their
faith in Jesus.
REV 14:13 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, "that they may rest from their
labors, for their deeds follow with them."
REV 14:14 And I looked, and behold, a #663300
cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one like a son
of man, having a golden crown on His head, and a
sharp sickle in His hand.
REV 14:15 And another angel came out of the
temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat
on the cloud, "Put in your sickle and reap,
because the hour to reap has come, because the
harvest of the earth is ripe."
REV 14:16 And He who sat on the cloud swung
His sickle over the earth; and the earth was reaped.
REV 14:17 And another angel came out of the
temple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp
sickle.
REV 14:18 And 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, "Put in your sharp sickle, and
gather the clusters from the vine of the earth,
because her grapes are ripe."
REV 14:19 And the angel swung 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.
REV 14:20 And the wine press was trodden
outside the city, and blood came out from the wine
press, up to the horses' bridles, for a distance of
two hundred miles.

REV
15:1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and
marvelous, seven angels who had seven plagues, which
are the last, because in them the wrath of God is
finished.
REV 15:2 And I saw, as it were, a sea of
glass mixed with fire, and those who had come off
victorious from the beast and from his image and
from the number of his name, standing on the sea of
glass, holding harps of God.
REV 15:3 And they sang the song of Moses the
bond-servant of God and the song of the Lamb,
saying, "Great and marvelous are Thy works, O
Lord God, the Almighty; Righteous and true are Thy
ways, Thou King of the nations.
REV 15:4 "Who will not fear, O Lord, and
glorify Thy name? For Thou alone art holy; For all
the nations will come and worship before Thee, For
Thy righteous acts have been revealed."
REV 15:5 After these things I looked, and the
temple of the tabernacle of testimony in heaven was
opened,
REV 15:6 and the seven angels who had the
seven plagues came out of the temple, clothed in
linen, clean and bright, and girded around their
breasts with golden girdles.
REV 15:7 And one of the four living creatures
gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of
the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever.
REV 15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke
from the glory of God and from His power; and no one
was able to enter the temple until the seven plagues
of the seven angels were finished.

REV
16:1 And I heard a loud voice from the temple,
saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out
the seven bowls of the wrath of God into the
earth."
REV 16:2 And the first angel went and poured
out his bowl into the earth; and it became a
loathsome and malignant sore upon the men who had
the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.
REV 16:3 And the second angel poured out his
bowl into the sea, and it became blood like that of
a dead man; and every living thing in the sea died.
REV 16:4 And the third angel poured out his
bowl into the rivers and the springs of waters; and
they became blood.
REV 16:5 And I heard the angel of the waters
saying, "Righteous art Thou, who art and who
wast, O Holy One, because Thou didst judge these
things;
REV 16:6 for they poured out the blood of
saints and prophets, and Thou hast given them blood
to drink. They deserve it."
REV 16:7 And I heard the altar saying,
"Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty, true and
righteous are Thy judgments."
REV 16:8 And the fourth angel poured out his
bowl upon the sun; and it was given to it to scorch
men with fire.
REV 16:9 And men were scorched with fierce
heat; and they blasphemed the name of God who has
the power over these plagues; and they did not
repent, so as to give Him glory.
REV 16:10 And the fifth angel poured out his
bowl upon the throne of the beast; and his kingdom
became darkened; and they gnawed their tongues
because of pain,
REV 16:11 and they blasphemed the God of
heaven because of their pains and their sores; and
they did not repent of their deeds.
REV 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his
bowl upon the great river, the Euphrates; and its
water was dried up, that the way might be prepared
for the kings from the east.
REV 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 like frogs;
REV 16:14 for they are spirits of demons,
performing signs, which go out to the kings of the
whole world, to gather them together for the war of
the great day of God, the Almighty.
REV 16:15 ("Behold, I am coming like a
thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps
his garments, lest he walk about naked and men see
his shame.")
REV 16:16 And they gathered them together to
the place which in Hebrew is called Har-Magedon.
REV 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out
his bowl upon the air; and a loud voice came out of
the temple from the throne, saying, "It is
done."
REV 16:18 And there were flashes of lightning
and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a
great earthquake, such as there had not been since
man came to be upon the earth, so great an
earthquake was it, and so mighty.
REV 16:19 And the great city was split into
three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And
Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give
her the cup of the wine of His fierce wrath.
REV 16:20 And every island fled away, and the
mountains were not found.
REV 16:21 And huge hailstones, about one
hundred pounds each, came down from heaven upon men;
and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the
hail, because its plague was extremely severe.

REV
17:1 And one of the seven angels who had the
seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying,
"Come here, I shall show you the judgment of
the great harlot who sits on many waters,
REV 17:2 with whom the kings of the earth
committed acts of immorality, and those who dwell on
the earth were made drunk with the wine of her
immorality."
REV 17:3 And he carried me away in the Spirit
into a wilderness; and I saw a woman sitting on a
scarlet beast, full of blasphemous names, having
seven heads and ten horns.
REV 17:4 And the woman was clothed in purple
and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious
stones and pearls, having in her hand a gold cup
full of abominations and of the unclean things of
her immorality,
REV 17:5 and upon her forehead a name was
written, a mystery, "BABYLON THE GREAT, THE
MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE
EARTH."
REV 17:6 And I saw the woman drunk with the
blood of the saints, and with the blood of the
witnesses of Jesus. And when I saw her, I wondered
greatly.
REV 17:7 And the angel said to me, "Why
do you wonder? I shall tell you the mystery of the
woman and of the beast that carries her, which has
the seven heads and the ten horns.
REV 17:8 "The beast that you saw was and
is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and
to go to destruction. And those who dwell on the
earth will wonder, whose name has not been written
in the book of life from the foundation of the
world, when they see the beast, that he was and is
not and will come.
REV 17:9 "Here is the mind which has
wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which
the woman sits,
REV 17:10 and they are seven kings; five have
fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when
he comes, he must remain a little while.
REV 17:11 "And the beast which was and
is not, is himself also an eighth, and is one of the
seven, and he goes to destruction.
REV 17:12 "And the ten horns which you
saw are ten kings, who have not yet received a
kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with
the beast for one hour.
REV 17:13 "These have one purpose and
they give their power and authority to the beast.
REV 17:14 "These will wage war against
the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, because
He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those who
are with Him are the called and chosen and
faithful."
REV 17:15 And he said to me, "The waters
which you saw where the harlot sits, are peoples and
multitudes and nations and tongues.
REV 17:16 "And the ten horns which you
saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot and
will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her
flesh and will burn her up with fire.
REV 17:17 "For God has put it in their
hearts to execute His purpose by having a common
purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the beast,
until the words of God should be fulfilled.
REV 17:18 "And the woman whom you saw is
the great city, which reigns over the kings of the
earth."

REV
18:1 After these things I saw another angel
coming down from heaven, having great authority, and
the earth was illumined with his glory.
REV 18:2 And he cried out with a mighty
voice, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the
great! And she has become a dwelling place of demons
and a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison
of every unclean and hateful bird.
REV 18:3 "For all the nations have drunk
of the wine of the passion of her immorality, and
the kings of the earth have committed acts of
immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth
have become rich by the wealth of her
sensuality."
REV 18:4 And I heard another voice from
heaven, saying, "Come out of her, my people,
that you may not participate in her sins and that
you may not receive of her plagues;
REV 18:5 for her sins have piled up as high
as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
REV 18:6 "Pay her back even as she has
paid, and give back to her double according to her
deeds; in the cup which she has mixed, mix twice as
much for her.
REV 18:7 "To the degree that she
glorified herself and lived sensuously, to the same
degree give her torment and mourning; for she says
in her heart, 'I sit as a queen and I am not a
widow, and will never see mourning.'
REV 18:8 "For this reason in one day her
plagues will come, pestilence and mourning and
famine, and she will be burned up with fire; for the
Lord God who judges her is strong.
REV 18:9 "And the kings of the earth,
who committed acts of immorality and lived
sensuously with her, will weep and lament over her
when they see the smoke of her burning,
REV 18:10 standing at a distance because of
the fear of her torment, saying,' Woe, woe, the
great city, Babylon, the strong city! For in one
hour your judgment has come.'
REV 18:11 "And the merchants of the
earth weep and mourn over her, because no one buys
their cargoes any more;
REV 18:12 cargoes of gold and silver and
precious stones and pearls and fine linen and purple
and silk and scarlet, and every kind of citron wood
and every article of ivory and every article made
from very costly wood and bronze and iron and
marble,
REV 18:13 and cinnamon and spice and incense
and perfume and frankincense and wine and olive oil
and fine flour and wheat and cattle and sheep, and
cargoes of horses and chariots and slaves and human
lives.
REV 18:14 "And the fruit you long for
has gone from you, and all things that were
luxurious and splendid have passed away from you and
men will no longer find them.
REV 18:15 "The merchants of these
things, who became rich from her, will stand at a
distance because of the fear of her torment, weeping
and mourning,
REV 18:16 saying,' Woe, woe, the great city,
she who was clothed in fine linen and purple and
scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones
and pearls;
REV 18:17 for in one hour such great wealth
has been laid waste!' And every shipmaster and every
passenger and sailor, and as many as make their
living by the sea, stood at a distance,
REV 18:18 and were crying out as they saw the
smoke of her burning, saying,' What city is like the
great city?'
REV 18:19 "And they threw dust on their
heads and were crying out, weeping and mourning,
saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who
had ships at sea became rich by her wealth, for in
one hour she has been laid waste!'
REV 18:20 "Rejoice over her, O heaven,
and you saints and apostles and prophets, because
God has pronounced judgment for you against
her."
REV 18:21 And a strong angel took up a stone
like a great millstone and threw it into the sea,
saying, "Thus will Babylon, the great city, be
thrown down with violence, and will not be found any
longer.
REV 18:22 "And the sound of harpists and
musicians and flute-players and trumpeters will not
be heard in you any longer; and no craftsman of any
craft will be found in you any longer; and the sound
of a mill will not be heard in you any longer;
REV 18:23 and the light of a lamp will not
shine in you any longer; and the voice of the
bridegroom and bride will not be heard in you any
longer; for your merchants were the great men of the
earth, because all the nations were deceived by your
sorcery.
REV 18:24 "And in her was found the
blood of prophets and of saints and of all who have
been slain on the earth."

REV
19:1 After these things I heard, as it were, a
loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying,
"Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power
belong to our God;
REV 19:2 because His judgments are true and
righteous; for He has judged the great harlot who
was corrupting the earth with her immorality, and He
has avenged the blood of His bond-servants on
her."
REV 19:3 And a second time they said,
"Hallelujah! Her smoke rises up forever and
ever."
REV 19:4 And the twenty-four elders and the
four living creatures fell down and worshiped God
who sits on the throne saying, "Amen.
Hallelujah!"
REV 19:5 And a voice came from the throne,
saying, "Give praise to our God, all you His
bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the
great."
REV 19:6 And I heard, as it were, the voice
of a great multitude and as the sound of many waters
and as the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying,
"Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the
Almighty, reigns.
REV 19:7 "Let us rejoice and be glad and
give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb
has come and His bride has made herself ready."
REV 19:8 And it was given to her to clothe
herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the
fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
REV 19:9 And he said to me, "Write,
'Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage
supper of the Lamb.'" And he said to me,
"These are true words of God."
REV 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship
him. And he said to me, "Do not do that; I am a
fellow servant of yours and your brethren who hold
the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the
testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."
REV 19:11 And I saw heaven opened; and
behold, a #663300 horse, and He who sat upon it is
called Faithful and True; and in righteousness He
judges and wages war.
REV 19:12 And His eyes are a flame of fire,
and upon His head are many diadems; and He has a
name written upon Him which no one knows except
Himself.
REV 19:13 And He is clothed with a robe
dipped in blood; and His name is called The Word of
God.
REV 19:14 And the armies which are in heaven,
clothed in fine linen, #663300 and clean, were
following Him on #663300 horses.
REV 19:15 And from His mouth comes a sharp
sword, so that with it He may smite the nations; and
He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads
the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the
Almighty.
REV 19:16 And on His robe and on His thigh He
has a name written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF
LORDS."
REV 19:17 And I saw an angel standing in the
sun; and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to
all the birds which fly in midheaven, "Come,
assemble for the great supper of God;
REV 19:18 in order that you may eat the flesh
of kings and the flesh of commanders and the flesh
of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those
who sit on them and the flesh of all men, both free
men and slaves, and small and great."
REV 19:19 And I saw the beast and the kings
of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war
against Him who sat upon the horse, and against His
army.
REV 19:20 And the beast was seized, and with
him the false prophet who performed the signs in his
presence, by which he deceived those who had
received the mark of the beast and those who
worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive
into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.
REV 19:21 And the rest were killed with the
sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat upon
the horse, and all the birds were filled with their
flesh.

REV
20:1 And I saw an angel coming down from heaven,
having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his
hand.
REV 20:2 And he laid hold of the dragon, the
serpent of old, who is the devil and Satan, and
bound him for a thousand years,
REV 20:3 and threw him into the abyss, and
shut it and sealed it over him, so that he should
not deceive the nations any longer, until the
thousand years were completed; after these things he
must be released for a short time.
REV 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon
them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the
souls of those who had been beheaded because of the
testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God,
and those who had not worshiped the beast or his
image, and had not received the mark upon their
forehead and upon their hand; and they came to life
and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
REV 20:5 The rest of the dead did not come to
life until the thousand years were completed. This
is the first resurrection.
REV 20:6 Blessed and holy is the one who has
a part in the first resurrection; over these the
second death has no power, but they will be priests
of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a
thousand years.
REV 20:7 And when the thousand years are
completed, Satan will be released from his prison,
REV 20:8 and will come out to deceive the
nations which are in the four corners of the earth,
Gog and Magog, to gather them together for the war;
the number of them is like the sand of the seashore.
REV 20:9 And they came up on the broad plain
of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints
and the beloved city, and fire came down from heaven
and devoured them.
REV 20:10 And the devil who deceived them was
thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone, where
the beast and the false prophet are also; and they
will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
REV 20:11 And I saw a great #663300 throne
and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence earth
and heaven fled away, and no place was found for
them.
REV 20:12 And I saw the dead, the great and
the small, standing before the throne, and books
were opened; and another book was opened, which is
the book of life; and the dead were judged from the
things which were written in the books, according to
their deeds.
REV 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which
were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead
which were in them; and they were judged, every one
of them according to their deeds.
REV 20:14 And death and Hades were thrown
into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the
lake of fire.
REV 20:15 And if anyone's name was not found
written in the book of life, he was thrown into the
lake of fire.

REV
21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for
the first heaven and the first earth passed away,
and there is no longer any sea.
REV 21:2 And I saw the holy city, new
Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made
ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
REV 21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the
throne, saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God
is among men, and He shall dwell among them, and
they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be
among them,
REV 21:4 and He shall wipe away every tear
from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any
death; there shall no longer be any mourning, or
crying, or pain; the first things have passed
away."
REV 21:5 And He who sits on the throne said,
"Behold, I am making all things new." And
He said, "Write, for these words are faithful
and true."
REV 21:6 And He said to me, "It is done.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the
end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the
spring of the water of life without cost.
REV 21:7 "He who overcomes shall inherit
these things, and I will be his God and he will be
My son.
REV 21:8 "But for the cowardly and
unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral
persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars,
their part will be in the lake that burns with fire
and brimstone, which is the second death."
REV 21:9 And one of the seven angels who had
the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, came
and spoke with me, saying, "Come here, I shall
show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."
REV 21:10 And he carried me away in the
Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me
the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven
from God,
REV 21:11 having the glory of God. Her
brilliance was like a very costly stone, as a stone
of crystal-clear jasper.
REV 21:12 It had a great and high wall, with
twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and
names were written on them, which are those of the
twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.
REV 21:13 There were three gates on the east
and three gates on the north and three gates on the
south and three gates on the west.
REV 21:14 And the wall of the city had twelve
foundation stones, and on them were the twelve names
of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
REV 21:15 And the one who spoke with me had a
gold measuring rod to measure the city, and its
gates and its wall.
REV 21:16 And the city is laid out as a
square, and its length is as great as the width; and
he measured the city with the rod, fifteen hundred
miles; its length and width and height are equal.
REV 21:17 And he measured its wall,
seventy-two yards, according to human measurements,
which are also angelic measurements.
REV 21:18 And the material of the wall was
jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear
glass.
REV 21:19 The foundation stones of the city
wall were adorned with every kind of precious stone.
The first foundation stone was jasper; the second,
sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth,
emerald;
REV 21:20 the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth,
sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl;
the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the
eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
REV 21:21 And the twelve gates were twelve
pearls; each one of the gates was a single pearl.
And the street of the city was pure gold, like
transparent glass.
REV 21:22 And I saw no temple in it, for the
Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its
temple.
REV 21:23 And the city has no need of the sun
or of the moon to shine upon it, for the glory of
God has illumined it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
REV 21:24 And the nations shall walk by its
light, and the kings of the earth shall bring their
glory into it.
REV 21:25 And in the daytime (for there shall
be no night there) its gates shall never be closed;
REV 21:26 and they shall bring the glory and
the honor of the nations into it;
REV 21:27 and nothing unclean and no one who
practices abomination and lying, shall ever come
into it, but only those whose names are written in
the Lamb's book of life.

REV
22:1 And he showed me a river of the water of
life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of
God and of the Lamb,
REV 22:2 in the middle of its street. And on
either side of the river was the tree of life,
bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit
every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the
healing of the nations.
REV 22:3 And there shall no longer be any
curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall
be in it, and His bond-servants shall serve Him;
REV 22:4 and they shall see His face, and His
name shall be on their foreheads.
REV 22:5 And there shall no longer be any
night; and they shall not have need of the light of
a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord
God shall illumine them; and they shall reign
forever and ever.
REV 22:6 And he said to me, "These words
are faithful and true"; and the Lord, the God
of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to
show to His bond-servants the things which must
shortly take place.
REV 22:7 "And
behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who heeds
the words of the prophecy of this book."
REV 22:8 And I, John, am the one who heard
and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I
fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who
showed me these things.
REV 22:9 And he said to me, "Do not do
that; I am a fellow servant of yours and of your
brethren the prophets and of those who heed the
words of this book; worship God."
REV 22:10 And he said to me, "Do not
seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for
the time is near.
REV 22:11 "Let the one who does wrong,
still do wrong; and let the one who is filthy, still
be filthy; and let the one who is righteous, still
practice righteousness; and let the one who is holy,
still keep himself holy."
REV 22:12 "Behold,
I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to
render to every man according to what he has done.
REV 22:13 "I am
the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the
beginning and the end."
REV 22:14 Blessed are those who wash their
robes, that they may have the right to the tree of
life, and may enter by the gates into the city.
REV 22:15 Outside are the dogs and the
sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers
and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and
practices lying.
REV 22:16 "I,
Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these
things for the churches. I am the root and the
offspring of David, the bright morning star."
REV 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say,
"Come." And let the one who hears say,
"Come." And let the one who is thirsty
come; let the one who wishes take the water of life
without cost.
REV 22:18 I testify to everyone who hears the
words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds
to them, God shall add to him the plagues which are
written in this book;
REV 22:19 and if anyone takes away from the
words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take
away his part from the tree of life and from the
holy city, which are written in this book.
REV 22:20 He who testifies to these things
says, "Yes, I am coming
quickly." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
REV 22:21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with
all. Amen.
