Revelation:17:3-8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness :
and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast ,
full of names of blasphemy ,
having seven heads and ten horns .
*
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour ,
and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls ,
having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication :
*
And upon her forehead was a name written ,
MYSTERY ,
BABYLON THE GREAT ,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH .
*
And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints ,
and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus :
and when I saw her ,
I wondered with great admiration .
*
And the angel said unto me ,
Wherefore didst thou marvel ?
I will tell thee the mystery of the woman ,
and of the beast that carrieth her ,
which hath the seven heads and ten horns .
*
The beast that thou sawest was ,
and is not ;
and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit ,
and go into perdition :
and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder ,
whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world ,
when they behold the beast that was ,
and is not ,
and yet is .
