Revelation 11:5-10

5And if anyone wants to harm them, 1fire flows out of their mouth and devours their enemies; so if anyone wants to harm them, 2he must be killed in this way. 6These have the power to 3shut up the sky, so that rain will not fall during 4the days of their prophesying; and they have power over the waters to 5turn them into blood, and 6to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.

7When they have finished their testimony, 7the beast that comes up out of the 8abyss will 9make war with them, and overcome them and kill them. 8And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the 10great city which 11mystically is called 12Sodom and 13Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. 9Those from 14the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will look at their dead 15bodies for three and a half days, and 1617will not permit their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb. 10And 18those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and celebrate; and they will 19send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented 20those who dwell on the earth.
