*
So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness .
And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy ,
having seven heads and ten horns .
*
The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet ,
and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls ,
having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication .
*
And on her forehead a name was written :
MYSTERY ,
BABYLON THE GREAT ,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH .
*
I saw the woman ,
drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus .
And when I saw her ,
I marveled with great amazement .
*
But the angel said to me , "
Why did you marvel ?
I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her ,
which has the seven heads and the ten horns .
*
The beast that you saw was ,
and is not ,
and will ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to perdition .
And those who dwell on the earth will marvel ,
whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world ,
when they see the beast that was ,
and is not ,
and yet is .
