Revelation 19:9-21
9Then 1he said to me, “2Write, ‘3Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’” And he said to me, “4These are true words of God.” 10Then 5I fell at his feet to worship him. 6But he said to me, “Do not do that; I am a 7fellow servant of yours and your brethren who 8hold the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
11And I saw 9heaven opened, and behold, a 10white horse, and He who sat on it is called 11Faithful and True, and in 12righteousness He judges and wages war. 12His 13eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many 14diadems; and He has a 15name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. 13He is clothed with a 16robe dipped in blood, and His name is called 17The Word of God. 14And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in 18fine linen, 19white and clean, were following Him on white horses. 1520From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that 21with it He may strike down the nations, and He will 2223rule them with a rod of iron; and 24He treads the 25wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. 16And on His robe and on His thigh He has 26a name written, “27KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”
17Then I saw 28an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to 29all the birds which fly in 30midheaven, “31Come, assemble for the great supper of God, 18so that you may 32eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of 33commanders and the flesh of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, 34both free men and slaves, and 35small and great.”
19And I saw 36the beast and 37the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war against Him who 38sat on the horse and against His army. 20And the beast was seized, and with him the 39false prophet who 40performed the signs 4142in his presence, by which he 43deceived those who had received the 44mark of the beast and those who 45worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the 46lake of 47fire which burns with 48brimstone. 21And the rest were killed with the sword which 49came from the mouth of Him who 50sat on the horse, and 51all the birds were filled with their flesh.
