Revelation 13:4-10
4they worshiped the 1dragon because he 2gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “3Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?” 5There was given to him a mouth 4speaking 5arrogant words and blasphemies, and authority to act for 6forty-two months was given to him. 6And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, 7those who 8dwell in heaven.
7It was also given to him to 9make war with the 10saints and to overcome them, and authority over 11every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him. 8All who 12dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone 13whose name has not been 14written 15from the foundation of the world in the 16book of life of 17the Lamb who has been slain. 918If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 1019If anyone 20is destined for captivity, to captivity he goes; 21if anyone kills with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is 22the 23perseverance and the faith of the 24saints.
