Revelation 13:5-10

5A mouth was given to him 1speaking 2arrogant words and blasphemies, and authority to act for 3forty-two months was given to him. 6And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, 4those who dwell in heaven.

7It was also given to him to 5make war with the 6saints and to overcome them, and authority was given to him over 7every tribe, people, language, and nation. 8All who 8live on the earth will worship him, everyone 9whose name has not been 10written 11since the foundation of the world in the 12book of life of 13the Lamb who has been slaughtered. 914If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 1015If anyone 16is destined for captivity, to captivity he goes; 17if anyone kills with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is 18the 19perseverance and the faith of the 20saints.
