Revelation 13:9-16

And he makes 14the earth and those who live on it 15worship the first beast, whose 16fatal wound was healed. 13He 17performs great signs, so that he even makes 18fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the presence of people. 14And he 19deceives 20those who live on the earth because of 21the signs which it was given him to perform 2223in the presence of the beast, telling those who live on the earth to make an image to the beast who had the 24wound of the sword and has come to life. 15And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even 25speak and cause 26all who do not 27worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16And he causes all, 28the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slaves, 29to be given a 30mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,
