Revelation 13:1-10

1And the dragon stood on the sand of the 1seashore.

Then I saw a 2beast coming up out of the sea, having 3ten horns and 4seven heads, and on his horns were 5ten diadems, and on his heads were 6blasphemous names. 2And the beast which I saw was 7like a leopard, and his feet were like those of 8a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of 9a lion. And the 10dragon gave him his power and his 11throne and great authority. 3I saw one of his heads as if it had been 12slain, and his 13fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth 14was amazed and followed after the beast; 4they worshiped the 15dragon because he 16gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “17Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?” 5There was given to him a mouth 18speaking 19arrogant words and blasphemies, and authority to act for 20forty-two months was given to him. 6And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, 21those who 22dwell in heaven.

7It was also given to him to 23make war with the 24saints and to overcome them, and authority over 25every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him. 8All who 26dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone 27whose name has not been 28written 29from the foundation of the world in the 30book of life of 31the Lamb who has been slain. 932If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 1033If anyone 34is destined for captivity, to captivity he goes; 35if anyone kills with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is 36the 37perseverance and the faith of the 38saints.
