Revelation 13:5-18
5There was givenG1325 to him a mouthG4750 1speakingG2980 2arrogantG3173 words and blasphemiesG988, and authorityG1849 to actG4160 for 3forty-twoG5065G1417 monthsG3376 was givenG1325 to him. 6And he openedG455 his mouthG4750 in blasphemiesG988 againstG4314 GodG2316, to blasphemeG987 His nameG3686 and His tabernacleG4633, that is, 4thoseG3588 who 5dwellG4637 in heavenG3772.
7It was alsoG2532 givenG1325 to him to 6makeG4160 warG4171 with the 7saintsG40 and to overcomeG3528 them, and authorityG1849 overG1909 8everyG3956 tribeG5443 and peopleG2992 and tongueG1100 and nationG1484 was givenG1325 to him. 8AllG3956 who 9dwellG2730 on the earthG1093 will worshipG4352 him, everyone 10whoseG3739 nameG3686 has not been 11writtenG1125 12from the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889 in the 13bookG975 of lifeG2222 of 14the LambG721 who has been slainG4969. 915IfG1487 anyoneG5100 hasG2192 an earG3775, let him hearG191. 1016IfG1487 anyoneG5100 17is destined for captivityG161, to captivityG161 he goesG5217; 18ifG1487 anyoneG5100 killsG615 with the swordG3162, with the swordG3162 he mustG1163 be killedG615. HereG5602 is 19the 20perseveranceG5281 and the faithG4102 of the 21saintsG40.
11ThenG2532 22I sawG3708 anotherG243 beastG2342 comingG305 up out of the earthG1093; and he hadG2192 23twoG1417 hornsG2768 likeG3664 a lambG721 and he spokeG2980 as a 24dragonG1404. 12He 25exercisesG4160 allG3956 the authorityG1849 of the firstG4413 beastG2342 2627in his presenceG1799. And he makesG4160 28the earthG1093 and thoseG3588 who dwellG2730 in it to 29worshipG4352 the firstG4413 beastG2342, whoseG3739 30fatalG2288 woundG4127 was healedG2323. 13He 31performsG4160 greatG3173 signsG4592, soG2443 that he evenG2532 makesG4160 32fireG4442 comeG2597 downG2597 out of heavenG3772 to the earthG1093 in the presenceG1799 of menG444. 14And he 33deceivesG4105 34thoseG3588 who dwellG2730 on the earthG1093 becauseG1223 of 35the signsG4592 whichG3739 it was givenG1325 him to performG4160 3637in the presenceG1799 of the beastG2342, tellingG3004 thoseG3588 who dwellG2730 on the earthG1093 to makeG4160 an imageG1504 to the beastG2342 whoG3739 hadG2192 the 38woundG4127 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 39speakG2980 and causeG4160 40as manyG3745 as do not 41worshipG4352 the imageG1504 of the beastG2342 to be killedG615. 16And he causesG4160 allG3956, 42the smallG3398 and the greatG3173, and the richG4145 and the poorG4434, and the freeG1658 menG1658 and the slavesG1401, 43to be givenG1325 a 44markG5480 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 45markG5480, either 46the nameG3686 of the beastG2342 orG2228 47the numberG706 of his nameG3686. 1848HereG5602 is wisdomG4678. Let him who hasG2192 understandingG3563 calculateG5585 the numberG706 of the beastG2342, for the numberG706 is that 49of a manG444; and his numberG706 is 50sixG1812 hundredG1812 and sixty-sixG1835G1803.
