Revelation 13:11-18
11ThenG2532 1I sawG3708 anotherG243 beastG2342 comingG305 up out of the earthG1093; and he hadG2192 2twoG1417 hornsG2768 likeG3664 a lambG721 and he spokeG2980 as a 3dragonG1404.
12He 4exercisesG4160 allG3956 the authorityG1849 of the firstG4413 beastG2342 56in his presenceG1799. And he makesG4160 7the earthG1093 and thoseG3588 who dwellG2730 in it to 8worshipG4352 the firstG4413 beastG2342, whoseG3739 9fatalG2288 woundG4127 was healedG2323.
13He 10performsG4160 greatG3173 signsG4592, soG2443 that he evenG2532 makesG4160 11fireG4442 comeG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772 to the earthG1093 in the presenceG1799 of menG444.
14And he 12deceivesG4105 13thoseG3588 who dwellG2730 on the earthG1093 becauseG1223 of 14the signsG4592 whichG3739 it was givenG1325 him to performG4160 1516in the presenceG1799 of the beastG2342, tellingG3004 thoseG3588 who dwellG2730 on the earthG1093 to makeG4160 an imageG1504 to the beastG2342 whoG3739 hadG2192 the 17woundG4127 of the swordG3162 and has come to lifeG2198.
15And it was givenG1325 to him to giveG1325 breathG4151 to the imageG1504 of the beastG2342, soG2443 that the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 would evenG2532 18speakG2980 and causeG4160 19as manyG3745 as do not 20worshipG4352 the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 to be killedG615.
16And he causesG4160 allG3956, 21the smallG3398 and the greatG3173, and the richG4145 and the poorG4434, and the freeG1658 menG1658 and the slavesG1401, 22to be givenG1325 a 23markG5480 on their rightG1188 handG5495 orG2228 on their foreheadG3359,
17and he provides that noG3761 oneG5100 will be ableG1410 to buyG59 orG2228 to sellG4453, exceptG1508 the one who hasG2192 the 24markG5480, either 25the nameG3686 of the beastG2342 orG2228 26the numberG706 of his nameG3686.
1827HereG5602 is wisdomG4678. Let him who hasG2192 understandingG3563 calculateG5585 the numberG706 of the beastG2342, for the numberG706 is that 28of a manG444; and his numberG706 is 29sixG1812 hundredG1812 and sixty-sixG1835G1803.
