Revelation 13:5-8

5The wild animal received authority to rule people for 42 months. It could speak proud words and insult God.

6So it started to speak against God. It insulted God's name and the place where he lives, as well as the people who live there in heaven.

7It received power to fight a war against God's own people and to win against them. It received authority to rule over people from every nation, people from every tribe and people from every language.

8Nearly all the people who live on the earth will worship the wild animal. But those people whose names are in the Lamb's book of life will not worship it. The Lamb wrote the names of these believers in his book from the beginning of the world. He is the Lamb that people killed as a sacrifice.
