1And[G2532] I stood[G2476]upon[G1909] the sand[G285]of[G1537] the sea[G2281], and[G2532]saw[G1492] a beast[G2342] rise up[G305] out of[G1537] the sea[G2281], having[G2192]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[G1537]blasphemy[G988].
2And[G2532] the beast[G2342]which[G3739] I saw[G1492]was[G2258]like[G3664] unto a leopard[G3917], and[G2532]his[G846]feet[G4228] were as[G5613] the feet[G4228] 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]him[G846]his[G846]power[G1411], and[G2532]his[G846]seat[G2362], and[G2532]great[G3173]authority[G1849].
3And[G2532] I saw[G1492]one[G3391] of his[G846]heads[G2776] as it were[G5613]wounded[G4969]to[G1519]death[G2288]; and[G2532]his[G846]deadly[G2288]wound[G4127] was healed[G2323]: and[G2532]all[G3650] the world[G1093]wondered[G2296]after[G3694] the beast[G2342].
4And[G2532] they worshipped[G4352] the dragon[G1404]which[G3739]gave[G1325]power[G1849] unto the beast[G2342]: and[G2532] they worshipped[G4352] the beast[G2342], saying[G3004], Who[G5101] is like[G3664] unto the beast?[G2342]who[G5101] is able[G1410] to make war[G4170]with[G3326]him?[G846]
5And[G2532] there was given[G1325] unto him[G846] a mouth[G4750]speaking[G2980] great things[G3173]and[G2532]blasphemies[G988]; and[G2532]power[G1849] was given[G1325] unto him[G846] to continue[G4160]forty[G5062]and[G2532]two[G1417]months[G3376].
6And[G2532] he opened[G455]his[G846]mouth[G4750]in[G1519]blasphemy[G988]against[G4314]God[G2316], to blaspheme[G987]his[G846]name[G3686], and[G2532]his[G846]tabernacle[G4633], and[G2532] them that dwell[G4637]in[G1722]heaven[G3772].
7And[G2532] it was given[G1325] unto him[G846] to make[G4160]war[G4171]with[G3326] the saints[G40], and[G2532] to overcome[G3528]them[G846]: and[G2532]power[G1849] was given[G1325]him[G846]over[G1909]all[G3956]kindreds[G5443], and[G2532]tongues[G1100], and[G2532]nations[G1484].
8And[G2532]all[G3956] that dwell[G2730]upon[G1909] the earth[G1093] shall worship[G4352]him[G846], whose[G3739]names[G3686]are[G1125]not[G3756]written[G1125]in[G1722] the book[G976] of life[G2222] of the Lamb[G721]slain[G4969]from[G575] the foundation[G2602] of the world[G2889].
9
If any man[G1536]have[G2192] an ear[G3775], let him hear[G191].
10
He that[G1536]leadeth[G4863]into[G1519]captivity[G161] shall go[G5217]into[G1519]captivity[G161]: he that[G1536]killeth[G615]with[G1722] the sword[G3162]must[G1163] be killed[G615]with[G1722] the sword[G3162]. Here[G5602]is[G2076] the patience[G5281]and[G2532] the faith[G4102] of the saints[G40].
11And[G2532] I beheld[G1492]another[G243]beast[G2342] coming up[G305] out of[G1537] the earth[G1093]; and[G2532] he had[G2192]two[G1417]horns[G2768]like[G3664] a lamb[G721], and[G2532] he spake[G2980]as[G5613] a dragon[G1404].
12And[G2532] he exerciseth[G4160]all[G3956] the power[G1849] of the first[G4413]beast[G2342]before[G1799]him[G846], and[G2532]causeth[G4160] the earth[G1093]and[G2532] them which dwell[G2730]therein[G1722]to[G2443]worship[G4352] the first[G4413]beast[G2342], whose[G3739]deadly[G2288]wound[G4127] was healed[G2323].
13And[G2532] he doeth[G4160]great[G3173]wonders[G4592], so[G2532]that[G2443] he maketh[G4160]fire[G4442] come down[G2597]from[G1537]heaven[G3772]on[G1519] the earth[G1093] in the sight[G1799] of men[G444],
14And[G2532]deceiveth[G4105] them that dwell[G2730]on[G1909] the earth[G1093]by[G1223] the means of those miracles[G4592]which[G3739]he[G846]had[G2192]power[G1325] to do[G4160] in the sight[G1799] of the beast[G2342]; saying[G3004] to them that dwell[G2730]on[G1909] the earth[G1093], that they should make[G4160] an image[G1504] to the beast[G2342], which[G3739]had[G2192] the wound[G4127]by[G1223] a sword[G3162], and[G2532] did live[G2198].
15And[G2532]he[G846] had power[G1325] to give[G1325]life[G4151] unto the image[G1504] of the beast[G2342], that[G2443] the image[G1504] of the beast[G2342]should[G2980]both[G2532]speak[G2980], and[G2532]cause[G4160]that[G2443]as[G3745] many as[G3745]would[G302]not[G3361]worship[G4352] the image[G1504] of the beast[G2342]should[G2980] be killed[G2443].
16And[G2532] he causeth[G4160]all[G3956], both small[G3398]and[G2532]great[G3173], rich[G4145]and[G2532]poor[G4434], free[G1658]and[G2532]bond[G1401], to[G2443]receive[G1325] a mark[G5480]in[G1909]their[G846] right hand[G1188], or[G2228]in[G1909]their[G846]foreheads[G3359]:
17And[G2532] that no[G3363]man[G5100]might[G1410]buy[G59]or[G2228]sell[G4453], save he[G1508] that had[G2192] the mark[G5480], or[G2228] the name[G3686] of the beast[G2342], or[G2228] the number[G706] of his[G846]name[G3686].
18Here[G5602]is[G2076]wisdom[G4678]. Let him that hath[G2192]understanding[G3563]count[G5585] the number[G706] of the beast[G2342]: for[G1063] it is[G2076] the number[G706] of a man[G444]; and[G2532]his[G846]number[G706]is[G2076]Six[G5516] hundred threescore and[G2532]six[G5516].
