* And I stood upon the sand of the sea and saw a beast rise up out of the sea , having seven heads and ten horns , and upon its horns ten crowns , and upon its heads the name of blasphemy . * And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard , and its feet were as [the feet ] of a bear , and its mouth as the mouth of a lion ; and the dragon gave it his power and his throne and great authority . * And I saw one of its heads as it were wounded to death ; and its deadly wound was healed ; and all the earth marveled , [and ] followed the beast . * And they worshipped the dragon which had given the authority unto the beast : and they worshipped the beast ; saying , Who [is ] like unto the beast ? who is able to make war with it ? * And there was given unto it a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies ; and power was given unto it to continue forty [and ] two months . * And it opened its mouth in blasphemy against God , to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle and those that dwell in heaven . * And it was given unto it to make war with the saints and to overcome them ; and power was given it over all kindreds and tongues and nations . * And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship it , whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb that was slain from the foundation of the world . * If anyone has an ear , let him hear . * He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity ; he that kills with the sword must be killed with the sword . Here is the patience and the faith of the saints . * Then I beheld another beast coming up out of the land ; and he had two horns like the Lamb , but he spoke as the dragon . * And he exercised all the power of the first beast in its presence and caused the earth and those that dwell therein to worship the first beast , whose deadly wound was healed . * And he does great signs , so that he even makes fire come down from heaven to the earth in the sight of men * and deceives those that dwell on the earth by those signs which were given unto him to do in the presence of the beast , commanding those that dwell on the earth to make an image of the beast , which has the wound by the sword , and did live . * And it was given unto him to endue the image of the beast with spirit , so that the image of the beast should speak , and he shall cause those that do not worship the image of the beast to be killed . * And he caused all , both small and great , rich and poor , free and servants , to receive a mark in their right hand , or in their foreheads ; * and that no one might buy or sell , unless he has the mark or the name of the beast or the number of its name . * Here is wisdom . Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast : for the number of man ; and its number [is ] six hundred sixty-six .:
