Revelation:10-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven ,
clothed with a cloud :
and a rainbow was on his head ,
and his face was as it were the sun ,
and his feet as pillars of fire :
*
And he had in his hand a little book open :
and he set his right foot on the sea ,
and his left foot on the earth ,
*
And cried with a loud voice ,
as when a lion roars :
and when he had cried ,
seven thunders uttered their voices .
*
And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices ,
I was about to write :
and I heard a voice from heaven saying to me ,
Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered ,
and write them not .
*
And the angel which I saw stand on the sea and on the earth lifted up his hand to heaven ,
*
And swore by him that lives for ever and ever ,
who created heaven ,
and the things that therein are ,
and the earth ,
and the things that therein are ,
and the sea ,
and the things which are therein ,
that there should be time no longer :
*
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel ,
when he shall begin to sound ,
the mystery of God should be finished ,
as he has declared to his servants the prophets .
*
And the voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again ,
and said ,
Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which stands on the sea and on the earth .
*
And I went to the angel ,
and said to him ,
Give me the little book .
And he said to me ,
Take it ,
and eat it up ;
and it shall make your belly bitter ,
but it shall be in your mouth sweet as honey .
*
And I took the little book out of the angel '
hand ,
and ate it up ;
and it was in my mouth sweet as honey :
and as soon as I had eaten it ,
my belly was bitter .
*
And he said to me ,
You must prophesy again before many peoples ,
and nations ,
and tongues ,
and kings .
*
And there was given me a reed like to a rod :
and the angel stood ,
saying ,
Rise ,
and measure the temple of God ,
and the altar ,
and them that worship therein .
*
But the court which is without the temple leave out ,
and measure it not ;
for it is given to the Gentiles :
and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months .
*
And I will give power to my two witnesses ,
and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and three score days ,
clothed in sackcloth .
*
These are the two olive trees ,
and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth .
*
And if any man will hurt them ,
fire proceeds out of their mouth ,
and devours their enemies :
and if any man will hurt them ,
he must in this manner be killed .
*
These have power to shut heaven ,
that it rain not in the days of their prophecy :
and have power over waters to turn them to blood ,
and to smite the earth with all plagues ,
as often as they will .
*
And when they shall have finished their testimony ,
the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them ,
and shall overcome them ,
and kill them .
*
And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city ,
which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt ,
where also our Lord was crucified .
*
And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half ,
and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves .
*
And they that dwell on the earth shall rejoice over them ,
and make merry ,
and shall send gifts one to another ;
because these two prophets tormented them that dwelled on the earth .
*
And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them ,
and they stood on their feet ;
and great fear fell on them which saw them .
*
And they heard a great voice from heaven saying to them ,
Come up here .
And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud ;
and their enemies beheld them .
*
And the same hour was there a great earthquake ,
and the tenth part of the city fell ,
and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand :
and the remnant were affrighted ,
and gave glory to the God of heaven .
*
The second woe is past ;
and ,
behold ,
the third woe comes quickly .
*
And the seventh angel sounded ;
and there were great voices in heaven ,
saying ,
The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord ,
and of his Christ ;
and he shall reign for ever and ever .
*
And the four and twenty elders ,
which sat before God on their seats ,
fell on their faces ,
and worshipped God ,
*
Saying ,
We give you thanks ,
O LORD God Almighty ,
which are ,
and were ,
and are to come ;
because you have taken to you your great power ,
and have reigned .
*
And the nations were angry ,
and your wrath is come ,
and the time of the dead ,
that they should be judged ,
and that you should give reward to your servants the prophets ,
and to the saints ,
and them that fear your name ,
small and great ;
and should destroy them which destroy the earth .
*
And the temple of God was opened in heaven ,
and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament :
and there were lightning ,
and voices ,
and thunder ,
and an earthquake ,
and great hail .
*
And there appeared a great wonder in heaven ;
a woman clothed with the sun ,
and the moon under her feet ,
and on her head a crown of twelve stars :
*
And she being with child cried ,
travailing in birth ,
and pained to be delivered .
*
And there appeared another wonder in heaven ;
and behold a great red dragon ,
having seven heads and ten horns ,
and seven crowns on his heads .
*
And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven ,
and did cast them to the earth :
and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered ,
for to devour her child as soon as it was born .
*
And she brought forth a man child ,
who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron :
and her child was caught up to God ,
and to his throne .
*
And the woman fled into the wilderness ,
where she has a place prepared of God ,
that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and three score days .
*
And there was war in heaven :
Michael and his angels fought against the dragon ;
and the dragon fought and his angels ,
*
And prevailed not ;
neither was their place found any more in heaven .
*
And the great dragon was cast out ,
that old serpent ,
called the Devil ,
and Satan ,
which deceives the whole world :
he was cast out into the earth ,
and his angels were cast out with him .
*
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven ,
Now is come salvation ,
and strength ,
and the kingdom of our God ,
and the power of his Christ :
for the accuser of our brothers is cast down ,
which accused them before our God day and night .
*
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb ,
and by the word of their testimony ;
and they loved not their lives to the death .
*
Therefore rejoice ,
you heavens ,
and you that dwell in them .
Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea !
for the devil is come down to you ,
having great wrath ,
because he knows that he has but a short time .
*
And when the dragon saw that he was cast to the earth ,
he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child .
*
And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle ,
that she might fly into the wilderness ,
into her place ,
where she is nourished for a time ,
and times ,
and half a time ,
from the face of the serpent .
*
And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman ,
that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood .
*
And the earth helped the woman ,
and the earth opened her mouth ,
and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth .
*
And the dragon was wroth with the woman ,
and went to make war with the remnant of her seed ,
which keep the commandments of God ,
and have the testimony of Jesus Christ .
*
And I stood on the sand of the sea ,
and saw a beast rise up out of the sea ,
having seven heads and ten horns ,
and on his horns ten crowns ,
and on his heads the name of blasphemy .
