Revelation 14

1ThenG2532 I lookedG3708 andG2532 sawG2400 theG3588 LambG721 standingG2476 onG1909 MountG3735 ZionG4622, andG2532 withG3326 HimG846 144,000G1540G5062G5064G5505 who hadG2192 HisG846 nameG3686 andG2532 HisG846 Father’sG3962 nameG3686 writtenG1125 onG1909 theirG846 foreheadsG3359. 2AndG2532 I heardG191 a soundG5456 fromG1537 heavenG3772 likeG5613 the roarG5456 of manyG4183 watersG5204 andG2532 the loudG3173 rumblingG5456 of thunderG1027. AndG2532 theG3588 soundG5456 I heardG191 was likeG5613 harpistsG2790 strummingG2789 theirG846 harpsG2788.

3AndG2532 they sangG103 a newG2537 songG5603 beforeG1799 theG3588 throneG2362 andG2532 beforeG1799 theG3588 fourG5064 living creaturesG2226 andG2532 theG3588 eldersG4245. AndG2532 no oneG3762 couldG1410 learnG3129 theG3588 songG5603 exceptG1487G3361 theG3588 144,000G1540G5062G5064G5505 whoG3588 had been redeemedG59 fromG575 theG3588 earthG1093. 4TheseG3778 areG1510 the ones whoG3739 have not been defiledG3756G3435 withG3326 womenG1135, forG1063 they areG1510 virginsG3933. TheyG3778 followG190 theG3588 LambG721 whereverG3699 He goesG302G5217. TheyG3778 have been redeemedG59 from amongG575 menG444 as firstfruitsG536 to GodG2316 andG2532 to theG3588 LambG721. 5AndG2532 noG3756 lieG5579 was foundG2147 inG1722 theirG846 mouthsG4750; they areG1510 blamelessG299.1

The Three Angels and Babylon’s Fall

6ThenG2532 I sawG3708 anotherG243 angelG32 flyingG4072 overheadG1722G3321, withG2192 the eternalG166 gospelG2098 to proclaimG2097 toG1909 those whoG3588 dwellG2521 onG1909 theG3588 earthG1093—toG1909 everyG3956 nationG1484 andG2532 tribeG5443 andG2532 tongueG1100 andG2532 peopleG2992. 7And he saidG3004 inG1722 a loudG3173 voiceG5456, “FearG5399 GodG2316 andG2532 giveG1325 HimG846 gloryG1391, becauseG3754 theG3588 hourG5610 ofG3588 HisG846 judgmentG2920 has comeG2064. WorshipG4352 theG3588 One who madeG4160 theG3588 heavensG3772 andG2532 theG3588 earthG1093 andG2532 the seaG2281 andG2532 the springsG4077 of watersG5204.”

8ThenG2532 aG243 secondG1208 angelG32 followedG190, sayingG3004, “FallenG4098, fallen isG4098 BabylonG897 theG3588 greatG3173,2 who has madeG3739 allG3956 theG3588 nationsG1484 drinkG4222 theG3588 wineG3631 of theG3588 passionG2372 ofG3588 herG846 immoralityG4202.”

9AndG2532 a thirdG243G5154 angelG32 followedG190 themG846, calling outG3004 inG1722 a loudG3173 voiceG5456, “IfG1487 anyoneG5100 worshipsG4352 theG3588 beastG2342 andG2532 itsG846 imageG1504 andG2532 receivesG2983 its markG5480 onG1909 hisG846 foreheadG3359 orG2228 onG1909 hisG3588 handG5495, 10heG846 tooG2532 will drinkG4095 theG3588 wineG3631 of God’sG2316 angerG2372, pouredG2767 undilutedG194 intoG1722 theG3588 cupG4221 ofG3588 HisG846 wrathG3709. AndG2532 he will be tormentedG928 inG1722 fireG4442 andG2532 sulfurG2303 in the presence ofG1799 the holyG40 angelsG32 andG2532 of theG3588 LambG721. 11AndG2532 theG3588 smokeG2586 ofG3588 theirG846 tormentG929 risesG305 foreverG1519G165 and everG165. DayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 there is noG3756 restG372 for those whoG3588 worshipG4352 theG3588 beastG2342 andG2532 itsG846 imageG1504, or for anyone whoG5100 receivesG2983 theG3588 markG5480 of itsG846 nameG3686.”

12HereG5602 isG1510 a call for theG3588 perseveranceG5281 of theG3588 saintsG40, whoG3588 keepG5083 theG3588 commandmentsG1785 of GodG2316 andG2532 theG3588 faithG4102 of JesusG2424.

13AndG2532 I heardG191 a voiceG5456 fromG1537 heavenG3772 tellingG3004 me to writeG1125, “BlessedG3107 are theG3588 deadG3498—those whoG3588 dieG599 inG1722 the LordG2962 fromG575 this moment onG737.”

“YesG3483,” saysG3004 theG3588 SpiritG4151, “they will restG373 fromG1537 theirG846 laborsG2873, forG1063 theirG846 deedsG2041 will followG190 themG846.”

The Harvest of the Earth

14AndG2532 I lookedG3708 andG2532 sawG2400 a whiteG3022 cloudG3507, andG2532 seatedG2521 onG1909 theG3588 cloudG3507 was One likeG3664 the SonG5207 of ManG444,3 withG2192 a goldenG5552 crownG4735 onG1909 HisG846 headG2776 andG2532 a sharpG3691 sickleG1407 inG1722 HisG846 handG5495.

15ThenG2532 anotherG243 angelG32 came outG1831 ofG1537 theG3588 templeG3485, crying outG2896 inG1722 a loudG3173 voiceG5456 to theG3588 One seatedG2521 onG1909 theG3588 cloudG3507, “SwingG3992 YourG4771 sickleG1407 andG2532 reapG2325, becauseG3754 theG3588 timeG5610 has comeG2064 to harvestG2325, forG3754 theG3588 cropG2326 of theG3588 earthG1093 is ripeG3583.” 16So theG3588 One seatedG2521 onG1909 theG3588 cloudG3507 swungG906 HisG846 sickleG1407 overG1909 theG3588 earthG1093, andG2532 theG3588 earthG1093 was harvestedG2325.

17ThenG2532 anotherG243 angelG32 cameG1831 out ofG1537 theG3588 templeG3485 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 heG846 too hadG2192 a sharpG3691 sickleG1407. 18Still anotherG243 angelG32, withG2192 authorityG1849 overG1909 theG3588 fireG4442, cameG1831 fromG1537 theG3588 altarG2379 andG2532 called outG5455 in a loudG3173 voiceG5456 to theG3588 angel withG2192 theG3588 sharpG3691 sickleG1407, “SwingG3992 yourG4771 sharpG3691 sickleG1407 andG2532 gatherG5166 theG3588 clustersG1009 of grapes from theG3588 vineG288 of theG3588 earthG1093, becauseG3754 itsG846 grapesG4718 are ripeG187.”

19So theG3588 angelG32 swungG906 hisG846 sickleG1407 overG1519 theG3588 earthG1093 andG2532 gatheredG5166 theG3588 grapes of theG3588 earthG1093, andG2532 he threwG906 them intoG1519 theG3588 greatG3173 winepressG3025 of God’sG2316 wrathG2372. 20AndG2532 theG3588 winepressG3025 was troddenG3961 outsideG1855 theG3588 cityG4172, andG2532 the bloodG129 that flowedG1831 fromG1537 it rose as high asG891 theG3588 bridlesG5469 of theG3588 horsesG2462 for a distance ofG575 1,600G5507G1812 stadiaG4712.4
