Revelation:19
Seeker Overlay ON
*
After these things I heard what sounded like the loud voice of a large crowd in heaven ,
saying , “
Hallelujah !
Salvation ,
glory ,
and power belong to our God .
*
His judgments are true and just .
He has condemned the notorious prostitutewho corrupted the world with her immorality .
He has taken revenge on herfor the blood of his servants .”
*
A second time they said , “
Hallelujah !
The smoke goes up from her forever and ever .”
*
The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures bowed down and worshiped God ,
who was sitting on the throne .
They said , “
Amen !
Hallelujah !”
*
A voice came from the throne ,
saying , “
Praise our God ,
all who serve and fear him ,
from the least importantto the most important .”
*
Then I heard what sounded like the voice of a large crowd ,
like the sound of raging waters ,
and like the sound of powerful thunderclaps ,
saying , “
Hallelujah !
The Lord our God ,
the Almighty ,
is reigning .
*
Let us rejoice ,
be glad ,
and give him glory ,
because the marriage of the lamb has comeand his bride has made herself ready .
*
She has been given the privilege of wearing fine linen ,
dazzling and pure .”(
The fine linen represents the righteous deeds of the saints .)
*
Then the angel said to me , “
Write this : ‘
How blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the lamb !’”
He also told me , “
These are the true words of God .”
*
I bowed down at his feet to worship him ,
but he told me , “
Don '
t do that !
I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers who hold on to the testimony of Jesus .
Worship God ,
because the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy !”
*
Then I saw heaven standing open ,
and there was a white horse !
Its rider is named Faithful and True ,
and in righteousness he judges and wages war .
*
His eyes are like a flame of fire ,
and on his head are many royal crowns .
He has a name written on him that nobody knows except himself .
*
He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood ,
and his name is called the Word of God .
*
The armies of heaven ,
wearing fine linen ,
white and pure ,
follow him on white horses .
*
A sharp sword comes out of his mouth to strike down the nations .
He will rule them with an iron rod and tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty .
*
On his robe and his thigh he has a name written:KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS .
*
Then I saw an angel standing in the sun .
He cried out in a loud voice to all the birds flying overhead , “
Come !
Gather for the great supper of God .
*
Eat the flesh of kings ,
the flesh of commanders ,
the flesh of warriors ,
the flesh of horses and their riders ,
and the flesh of all people ,
both free and slaves ,
both unimportant and important .”
*
Then I saw the beast ,
the kings of the earth ,
and their armies gathered to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army .
*
The beast was captured ,
along with the false prophet who had performed signs on its behalf .
By these signs the false prophet had deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image .
Both of them were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur .
*
The rest were killed by the sword that belonged to the rider on the horse and that came from his mouth .
And all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh .
