Revelation 17:8-14

8The beast you saw was, and is not, but is about to come up from the abyss and then go to destruction. The inhabitants of the earth – all those whose names have not been written in the book of life since the foundation of the world – will be astounded when they see that the beast was, and is not, but is to come.

9(This requires a mind that has wisdom.) The seven heads are seven mountains the woman sits on. They are also seven kings:

10five have fallen; one is, and the other has not yet come, but whenever he does come, he must remain for only a brief time.

11The beast that was, and is not, is himself an eighth king and yet is one of the seven, and is going to destruction.

12The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but will receive ruling authority as kings with the beast for one hour.

13These kings have a single intent, and they will give their power and authority to the beast.

14They will make war with the Lamb, but the Lamb will conquer them, because he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those accompanying the Lamb are the called, chosen, and faithful.”
