Revelation 13
Darby Bible
1And I stood upon the sand of the seaG2281; and I sawG3708 a beastG2342 rising out of the seaG2281, having tenG1176 hornsG2768 and sevenG2033 headsG2776, and upon its hornsG2768 tenG1176 diadems, and upon its headsG2776 namesG3686 of blasphemyG988. 2And the beastG2342 which I sawG3708 wasG1510 likeG5613 to a leopardess, and its feetG4228 as of a bear, and its mouthG4750 as a lion's mouthG4750; and the dragonG1404 gaveG1325 to it his powerG1411, and his throneG2362, and greatG3173 authorityG1849; 3and oneG1520 of his headsG2776 [was] as slainG4969 to deathG2288, and his woundG4127 of deathG2288 had been healedG2323: and the wholeG3650 earthG1093 wonderedG2296 after the beastG2342. 4And they did homage to the dragonG1404, because he gaveG1325 the authorityG1849 to the beastG2342; and they did homage to the beastG2342, sayingG3004, Who [is] likeG3664 to the beastG2342? and who can make warG4170 with it? 5And there was givenG1325 to it a mouthG4750, speakingG2980 greatG3173 things and blasphemiesG988; and there was givenG1325 to it authorityG1849 to pursue its career forty-two monthsG3376. 6And it openedG455 its mouthG4750 for blasphemiesG988 against 1GodG2316, to blasphemeG987 his nameG3686 and his tabernacleG4633, and those who have their tabernacleG4633 in the heavenG3772. 7And there was givenG1325 to it to makeG4160 warG4171 with the saintsG40, and to overcomeG3528 them; and there was givenG1325 to it authorityG1849 over every tribeG5443, and peopleG2992, and tongueG1100, and nationG1484; 8and all that dwellG2730 on the earthG1093 shall do it homage, [every oneG3739] whose nameG3686 had not been writtenG1125 from [the] founding of [the] worldG2889 in the bookG975 of lifeG2222 of the slainG4969 LambG721. 9If any oneG5100 has an earG3775, let him hearG191. 10If any oneG5100 [leads] into captivityG161, he goesG5217 into captivityG161. If any oneG5100 shall killG615 with [the] swordG3162, he must with [the] swordG3162 beG1510 killedG615. HereG5602 isG1510 the enduranceG5281 and the faithG4102 of the saintsG40. 11And I sawG3708 another beastG2342 rising out of the earthG1093; and it had twoG1417 hornsG2768 likeG5613 to a lambG721, and spake as a dragonG1404; 12and it exercises all the authorityG1849 of the firstG4413 beastG2342 before it, and causes the earthG1093 and those that dwellG2730 in it to do homage to the firstG4413 beastG2342, whose woundG4127 of deathG2288 was healedG2323. 13And it works greatG3173 signsG4592, that it should cause evenG2532 fireG4442 to comeG2597 down from heavenG3772 to the earthG1093 before menG444. 14And it deceivesG4105 those that dwellG2730 upon the earthG1093 by reason of the signsG4592 which it was givenG1325 to it to work before the beastG2342, sayingG3004 to those that dwellG2730 upon the earthG1093 to makeG4160 an imageG1504 to the beastG2342, which has the woundG4127 of the swordG3162, and lived. 15And it was givenG1325 to it to giveG1325 breath to the imageG1504 of the beastG2342, that the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 should alsoG2532 speakG2980, and should cause that as manyG3745 as should not do homage to the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 should be killedG615. 16And it causes all, the smallG3398 and the greatG3173, and the richG4145 and the poorG4434, and the freeG1658 and the bondmen, that they should giveG1325 them a markG5480 upon their rightG1188 handG5495 or upon their foreheadG3359; 17and that no oneG5100 should be ableG1410 to buyG59 or sellG4453 save he that had the markG5480, the nameG3686 of the beastG2342, or the numberG706 of its nameG3686. 18HereG5602 isG1510 wisdomG4678. He that has understandingG3563 let him count the numberG706 of the beastG2342: for it isG1510 a man's numberG706; and its numberG706 [isG1510] sixG1803 hundredG1812 [and] sixty-six.
