Revelation:13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 his horns ten crowns ,
and upon his heads the name of blasphemy .
*
And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard ,
and his feet were as the feet of a bear ,
and his mouth as the mouth of a lion :
and the dragon gave him his power ,
and his seat ,
and great authority .
*
And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death ;
and his deadly wound was healed :
and all the world wondered after the beast .
*
And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast :
and they worshipped the beast ,
saying ,
Who is like unto the beast ?
who is able to make war with him ?
*
And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies ;
and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months .
*
And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God ,
to blaspheme his name ,
and his tabernacle ,
and them that dwell in heaven .
*
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints ,
and to overcome them :
and power was given him over all kindreds ,
and tongues ,
and nations .
*
And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him ,
whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world .
*
If any man have an ear ,
let him hear .
*
He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity :
he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword .
Here is the patience and the faith of the saints .
*
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth ;
and he had two horns like a lamb ,
and he spake as a dragon .
*
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him ,
and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast ,
whose deadly wound was healed .
*
And he doeth great wonders ,
so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men ,
*
And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast ;
saying to them that dwell on the earth ,
that they should make an image to the beast ,
which had the wound by a sword ,
and did live .
*
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast ,
that the image of the beast should both speak ,
and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed .
*
And he causeth all ,
both small and great ,
rich and poor ,
free and bond ,
to receive a mark in their right hand ,
or in their foreheads :
*
And that no man might buy or sell ,
save he that had the mark ,
or the name of the beast ,
or the number of his name .
*
Here is wisdom .
Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast :
for it is the number of a man ;
and his number is Six hundred threescore and six .
