Revelation 13:16-18

16And he causes all, 1the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slaves, 2to be given a 3mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,

17and he decrees that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the 4mark, either 5the name of the beast or 6the number of his name.

187Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that 8of a 9man; and his number is 10six hundred and sixty-six.
