WEB·Revelation 14

¹I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him a number, one hundred forty-four thousand, having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.

KJVAnd^G2532 I looked^G1492^(G5627), and^G2532, lo^G2400^(G5628), a Lamb^G721 stood^G2476^(G5761) on^G1909 the mount^G3735 Sion^G4622, and^G2532 with^G3326 him^G846 an hundred^G1540 forty^G5062 and four^G5064 thousand^G5505, having^G2192^(G5723) his^G846 Father's^G3962 name^G3686 written^G1125^(G5772) in^G1909 their^G846 foreheads^G3359.

² I heard a sound from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of a great thunder. The sound which I heard was like that of harpists playing on their harps.

KJVAnd^G2532 I heard^G191^(G5656) a voice^G5456 from^G1537 heaven^G3772, as^G5613 the voice^G5456 of many^G4183 waters^G5204, and^G2532 as^G5613 the voice^G5456 of a great^G3173 thunder^G1027: and^G2532 I heard^G191^(G5656) the voice^G5456 of harpers^G2790 harping^G2789^(G5723) with^G1722 their^G846 harps^G2788:

³ They sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth.

KJVAnd^G2532 they sung^G103^(G5719) as it were^G5613 a new^G2537 song^G5603 before^G1799 the throne^G2362, and^G2532 before^G1799 the four^G5064 beasts^G2226, and^G2532 the elders^G4245: and^G2532 no man^G3762 could^G1410^(G5711) learn^G3129^(G5629) that song^G5603 but^G1508 the hundred^G1540 and forty^G5062 and four^G5064 thousand^G5505, which^G3588 were redeemed^G59^(G5772) from^G575 the earth^G1093.

⁴ These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

KJVThese^G3778 are they^G1526^(G5748) which^G3739 were^G3435 not^G3756 defiled^G3435^(G5681) with^G3326 women^G1135; for^G1063 they are^G1526^(G5748) virgins^G3933. These^G3778 are they^G1526^(G5748) which^G3588 follow^G190^(G5723) the Lamb^G721 whithersoever^G3699^G302 he goeth^G5217^(G5725). These^G3778 were redeemed^G59^(G5681) from^G575 among men^G444, being the firstfruits^G536 unto God^G2316 and^G2532 to the Lamb^G721.

⁵ In their mouth was found no lie, for they are blameless.

KJVAnd^G2532 in^G1722 their^G846 mouth^G4750 was found^G2147^(G5681) no^G3756 guile^G1388: for^G1063 they are^G1526^(G5748) without fault^G299 before^G1799 the throne^G2362 of God^G2316.

⁶ I saw an angel flying in mid heaven, having an eternal Good News to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language, and people.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) another^G243 angel^G32 fly^G4072^(G5740) in^G1722 the midst of heaven^G3321, having^G2192^(G5723) the everlasting^G166 gospel^G2098 to preach^G2097^(G5658) unto them that dwell^G2730^(G5723) on^G1909 the earth^G1093, and^G2532 to every^G3956 nation^G1484, and^G2532 kindred^G5443, and^G2532 tongue^G1100, and^G2532 people^G2992,

⁷ He said with a loud voice, “Fear the Lord, and give him glory, for the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and the springs of waters!”

KJVSaying^G3004^(G5723) with^G1722 a loud^G3173 voice^G5456, Fear^G5399^(G5676) God^G2316, and^G2532 give^G1325^(G5628) glory^G1391 to him^G846; for^G3754 the hour^G5610 of his^G846 judgment^G2920 is come^G2064^(G5627): and^G2532 worship^G4352^(G5657) him that made^G4160^(G5660) heaven^G3772, and^G2532 earth^G1093, and^G2532 the sea^G2281, and^G2532 the fountains^G4077 of waters^G5204.

⁸ Another, a second angel, followed, saying, “Babylon the great has fallen, which has made all the nations to drink of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality.”

KJVAnd^G2532 there followed^G190^(G5656) another^G243 angel^G32, saying^G3004^(G5723), Babylon^G897 is fallen^G4098^(G5627), is fallen^G4098^(G5627), that great^G3173 city^G4172, because^G3754 she made^G4222 all^G3956 nations^G1484 drink^G4222^(G5758) of^G1537 the wine^G3631 of the wrath^G2372 of her^G846 fornication^G4202.

⁹ Another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand,

KJVAnd^G2532 the third^G5154 angel^G32 followed^G190^(G5656) them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723) with^G1722 a loud^G3173 voice^G5456, If any man^G1536 worship^G4352^(G5719) the beast^G2342 and^G2532 his^G846 image^G1504, and^G2532 receive^G2983^(G5719) his mark^G5480 in^G1909 his^G846 forehead^G3359, or^G2228 in^G1909 his^G846 hand^G5495,

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

KJVThe same^G846^G2532 shall drink^G4095^(G5695) of^G1537 the wine^G3631 of the wrath^G2372 of God^G2316, which^G3588 is poured out^G2767^(G5772) without mixture^G194 into^G1722 the cup^G4221 of his^G846 indignation^G3709; and^G2532 he shall be tormented^G928^(G5701) with^G1722 fire^G4442 and^G2532 brimstone^G2303 in the presence^G1799 of the holy^G40 angels^G32, and^G2532 in the presence^G1799 of the Lamb^G721:

¹¹ 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, and whoever receives the mark of his name.

KJVAnd^G2532 the smoke^G2586 of their^G846 torment^G929 ascendeth up^G305^(G5719) for^G1519 ever^G165 and ever^G165: and^G2532 they have^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 rest^G372 day^G2250 nor^G2532 night^G3571, who^G3588 worship^G4352^(G5723) the beast^G2342 and^G2532 his^G846 image^G1504, and^G2532 whosoever^G1536 receiveth^G2983^(G5719) the mark^G5480 of his^G846 name^G3686.

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

KJVHere^G5602 is^G2076^(G5748) the patience^G5281 of the saints^G40: here^G5602 are they that keep^G5083^(G5723) the commandments^G1785 of God^G2316, and^G2532 the faith^G4102 of Jesus^G2424.

¹³ 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 works follow with them.”

KJVAnd^G2532 I heard^G191^(G5656) a voice^G5456 from^G1537 heaven^G3772 saying^G3004^(G5723) unto me^G3427, Write^G1125^(G5657), Blessed^G3107 are the dead^G3498 which^G3588 die^G599^(G5723) in^G1722 the Lord^G2962 from henceforth^G534: Yea^G3483, saith^G3004^(G5719) the Spirit^G4151, that^G2443 they may rest^G373^(G5672) from^G1537 their^G846 labours^G2873; and^G1161 their^G846 works^G2041 do follow^G190^(G5719)^G3326 them^G846.

¹⁴ I looked, and saw a white cloud, and on the cloud one sitting like a son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

KJVAnd^G2532 I looked^G1492^(G5627), and^G2532 behold^G2400^(G5628) a white^G3022 cloud^G3507, and^G2532 upon^G1909 the cloud^G3507 one sat^G2521^(G5740) like^G3664 unto the Son^G5207 of man^G444, having^G2192^(G5723) on^G1909 his^G846 head^G2776 a golden^G5552 crown^G4735, and^G2532 in^G1722 his^G846 hand^G5495 a sharp^G3691 sickle^G1407.

¹⁵ Another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud, “Send your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come; for the harvest of the earth is ripe!”

KJVAnd^G2532 another^G243 angel^G32 came^G1831^(G5627) out of^G1537 the temple^G3485, crying^G2896^(G5723) with^G1722 a loud^G3173 voice^G5456 to him that sat^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 the cloud^G3507, Thrust in^G3992^(G5657) thy^G4675 sickle^G1407, and^G2532 reap^G2325^(G5657): for^G3754 the time^G5610 is come^G2064^(G5627) for thee^G4671 to reap^G2325^(G5658); for^G3754 the harvest^G2326 of the earth^G1093 is ripe^G3583^(G5681).

¹⁶ He who sat on the cloud thrust his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.

KJVAnd^G2532 he that sat^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 the cloud^G3507 thrust in^G906^(G5627) his^G846 sickle^G1407 on^G1909 the earth^G1093; and^G2532 the earth^G1093 was reaped^G2325^(G5681).

¹⁷ Another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven. He also had a sharp sickle.

KJVAnd^G2532 another^G243 angel^G32 came^G1831^(G5627) out of^G1537 the temple^G3485 which^G3588 is in^G1722 heaven^G3772, he^G846 also^G2532 having^G2192^(G5723) a sharp^G3691 sickle^G1407.

¹⁸ Another angel came out from the altar, he who has power over fire, and he called with a great voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “Send your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for the earth’s grapes are fully ripe!”

KJVAnd^G2532 another^G243 angel^G32 came^G1831^(G5627) out^G1537 from the altar^G2379, which had^G2192^(G5723) power^G1849 over^G1909 fire^G4442; and^G2532 cried^G5455^(G5656) with a loud^G3173 cry^G2906 to him that had^G2192^(G5723) the sharp^G3691 sickle^G1407, saying^G3004^(G5723), Thrust in^G3992^(G5657) thy^G4675 sharp^G3691 sickle^G1407, and^G2532 gather^G5166^(G5657) the clusters^G1009 of the vine^G288 of the earth^G1093; for^G3754 her^G846 grapes^G4718 are fully ripe^G187^(G5656).

¹⁹ The angel thrust his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vintage of the earth and threw it into the great wine press of the wrath of God.

KJVAnd^G2532 the angel^G32 thrust in^G906^(G5627) his^G846 sickle^G1407 into^G1519 the earth^G1093, and^G2532 gathered^G5166^(G5656) the vine^G288 of the earth^G1093, and^G2532 cast^G906^(G5627) it into^G1519 the great^G3173 winepress^G3025 of the wrath^G2372 of God^G2316.

²⁰ The wine press was trodden outside of the city, and blood came out of the wine press, up to the bridles of the horses, as far as one thousand six hundred stadia.

KJVAnd^G2532 the winepress^G3025 was trodden^G3961^(G5681) without^G1854 the city^G4172, and^G2532 blood^G129 came^G1831^(G5627) out of^G1537 the winepress^G3025, even unto^G891 the horse^G2462 bridles^G5469, by the space of^G575 a thousand^G5507 and six hundred^G1812 furlongs^G4712.

WEB·Revelation 13

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

KJVAnd^G2532 I stood^G2476^(G5681) upon^G1909 the sand^G285 of the sea^G2281, and^G2532 saw^G1492^(G5627) a beast^G2342 rise up^G305^(G5723) out of^G1537 the sea^G2281, having^G2192^(G5723) seven^G2033 heads^G2776 and^G2532 ten^G1176 horns^G2768, and^G2532 upon^G1909 his^G846 horns^G2768 ten^G1176 crowns^G1238, and^G2532 upon^G1909 his^G846 heads^G2776 the name^G3686 of blasphemy^G988.

² 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. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.

KJVAnd^G2532 the beast^G2342 which^G3739 I saw^G1492^(G5627) was^G2258^(G5713) like^G3664 unto a leopard^G3917, and^G2532 his^G846 feet^G4228 were as^G5613 the feet of a bear^G715, and^G2532 his^G846 mouth^G4750 as^G5613 the mouth^G4750 of a lion^G3023: and^G2532 the dragon^G1404 gave^G1325^(G5656) him^G846 his^G846 power^G1411, and^G2532 his^G846 seat^G2362, and^G2532 great^G3173 authority^G1849.

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

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) one^G3391 of his^G846 heads^G2776 as it were^G5613 wounded^G4969^(G5772) to^G1519 death^G2288; and^G2532 his^G846 deadly^G2288 wound^G4127 was healed^G2323^(G5681): and^G2532 all^G3650 the world^G1093 wondered^G2296^(G5681)^(G5625)^G2296^(G5656) after^G3694^G1722 the beast^G2342.

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

KJVAnd^G2532 they worshipped^G4352^(G5656) the dragon^G1404 which^G3739 gave^G1325^(G5656) power^G1849 unto the beast^G2342: and^G2532 they worshipped^G4352^(G5656) the beast^G2342, saying^G3004^(G5723), Who^G5101 is like^G3664 unto the beast^G2342? who^G5101 is able^G1410^(G5736) to make war^G4170^(G5658) with^G3326 him^G846?

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

KJVAnd^G2532 there was given^G1325^(G5681) unto him^G846 a mouth^G4750 speaking^G2980^(G5723) great things^G3173 and^G2532 blasphemies^G988; and^G2532 power^G1849 was given^G1325^(G5681) unto him^G846 to continue^G4160^(G5658) forty^G5062 and two^G1417 months^G3376.

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

KJVAnd^G2532 he opened^G455^(G5656) his^G846 mouth^G4750 in^G1519 blasphemy^G988 against^G4314 God^G2316, to blaspheme^G987^(G5658) his^G846 name^G3686, and^G2532 his^G846 tabernacle^G4633, and^G2532 them that dwell^G4637^(G5723) in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

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

KJVAnd^G2532 it was given^G1325^(G5681) unto him^G846 to make^G4160^(G5658) war^G4171 with^G3326 the saints^G40, and^G2532 to overcome^G3528^(G5658) them^G846: and^G2532 power^G1849 was given^G1325^(G5681) him^G846 over^G1909 all^G3956 kindreds^G5443, and^G2532 tongues^G1100, and^G2532 nations^G1484.

⁸ 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 killed.

KJVAnd^G2532 all^G3956 that dwell^G2730^(G5723) upon^G1909 the earth^G1093 shall worship^G4352^(G5692) him^G846, whose^G3739 names^G3686 are^G1125 not^G3756 written^G1125^(G5769) in^G1722 the book^G976 of life^G2222 of the Lamb^G721 slain^G4969^(G5772) from^G575 the foundation^G2602 of the world^G2889.

⁹ If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

KJVIf any man^G1536 have^G2192^(G5719) an ear^G3775, let him hear^G191^(G5657).

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

KJVHe that^G1536 leadeth^G4863^(G5719) into captivity^G161 shall go^G5217^(G5719) into^G1519 captivity^G161: he that^G1536 killeth^G615^(G5719) with^G1722 the sword^G3162 must^G1163^(G5748) be killed^G615^(G5683) with^G1722 the sword^G3162. Here^G5602 is^G2076^(G5748) the patience^G5281 and^G2532 the faith^G4102 of the saints^G40.

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

KJVAnd^G2532 I beheld^G1492^(G5627) another^G243 beast^G2342 coming up^G305^(G5723) out of^G1537 the earth^G1093; and^G2532 he had^G2192^(G5707) two^G1417 horns^G2768 like^G3664 a lamb^G721, and^G2532 he spake^G2980^(G5707) as^G5613 a dragon^G1404.

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

KJVAnd^G2532 he exerciseth^G4160^(G5719) all^G3956 the power^G1849 of the first^G4413 beast^G2342 before^G1799 him^G846, and^G2532 causeth^G4160^(G5719) the earth^G1093 and^G2532 them which dwell^G2730^(G5723) therein^G1722^G846 to^G2443 worship^G4352^(G5661) the first^G4413 beast^G2342, whose^G3739^G846 deadly^G2288 wound^G4127 was healed^G2323^(G5681).

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

KJVAnd^G2532 he doeth^G4160^(G5719) great^G3173 wonders^G4592, so^G2532 that^G2443 he maketh^G4160^(G5725) fire^G4442 come down^G2597^(G5721) from^G1537 heaven^G3772 on^G1519 the earth^G1093 in the sight^G1799 of men^G444,

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