Revelation 13:1-7

1And the dragon stoodG2476 on the sandG285 of the 1seashoreG2281.

ThenG2532 I sawG3708 a 2beastG2342 comingG305 up out of the seaG2281, havingG2192 3tenG1176 hornsG2768 and 4sevenG2033 headsG2776, and on his hornsG2768 were 5tenG1176 diademsG1238, and on his headsG2776 were 6blasphemousG988 namesG3686. 2And the beastG2342 whichG3739 I sawG3708 was 7likeG3664 a leopardG3917, and his feetG4228 were likeG3664 those of 8a bearG715, and his mouthG4750 likeG5613 the mouthG4750 of 9a lionG3023. And the 10dragonG1404 gaveG1325 him his powerG1411 and his 11throneG2362 and greatG3173 authorityG1849. 3I saw oneG1520 of his headsG2776 as ifG5613 it had been 12slainG4969, and his 13fatalG2288 woundG4127 was healedG2323. And the wholeG3650 earthG1093 14was amazedG2296 and followed afterG3694 the beastG2342; 4they worshipedG4352 the 15dragonG1404 becauseG3754 he 16gaveG1325 his authorityG1849 to the beastG2342; and they worshipedG4352 the beastG2342, sayingG3004, “17WhoG5101 is likeG3664 the beastG2342, and whoG5101 is ableG1410 to wageG4170 warG4170 with him?” 5There was givenG1325 to him a mouthG4750 18speakingG2980 19arrogantG3173 words and blasphemiesG988, and authorityG1849 to actG4160 for 20forty-twoG5065G1417 monthsG3376 was givenG1325 to him. 6And he openedG455 his mouthG4750 in blasphemiesG988 againstG4314 GodG2316, to blasphemeG987 His nameG3686 and His tabernacleG4633, that is, 21thoseG3588 who 22dwellG4637 in heavenG3772.

7It was alsoG2532 givenG1325 to him to 23makeG4160 warG4171 with the 24saintsG40 and to overcomeG3528 them, and authorityG1849 overG1909 25everyG3956 tribeG5443 and peopleG2992 and tongueG1100 and nationG1484 was givenG1325 to him.
