001:001
| The
Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants
things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his
angel unto his servant John: |
001:002 | Who
bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of
all things that he saw. |
001:003 | Blessed
is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep
those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. |
001:004 | John
to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from
him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits
which are before his throne; |
001:005 | And
from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the
dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and
washed us from our sins in his own blood, |
001:006 | And
hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and
dominion for ever and ever. Amen. |
001:007 | Behold,
he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced
him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
|
001:008 | I
am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is,
and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. |
001:009 | I
John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom
and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the
word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. |
001:010 | I
was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as
of a trumpet, |
001:011 | Saying,
I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in
a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus,
and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and
unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea. |
001:012 | And
I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven
golden candlesticks; |
001:013 | And
in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed
with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
|
001:014 | His
head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were
as a flame of fire; |
001:015 | And
his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice
as the sound of many waters. |
001:016 | And
he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged
sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. |
001:017 | And
when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon
me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: |
001:018 | I
am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen;
and have the keys of hell and of death. |
001:019 | Write
the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which
shall be hereafter; |
001:020 | The
mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven
golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches:
and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches. |
|
002:001
| Unto
the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth
the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden
candlesticks; | 002:002 | I
know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear
them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles,
and are not, and hast found them liars: |
002:003 | And
hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast
not fainted. |
002:004 | Nevertheless
I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. |
002:005 | Remember
therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works;
or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out
of his place, except thou repent. |
002:006 | But
this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also
hate. |
002:007 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To
him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the
midst of the paradise of God. |
002:008 | And
unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first
and the last, which was dead, and is alive; |
002:009 | I
know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know
the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue
of Satan. |
002:010 | Fear
none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast
some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation
ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
|
002:011 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He
that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. |
002:012 | And
to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath
the sharp sword with two edges; |
002:013 | I
know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou
holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein
Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
|
002:014 | But
I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the
doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children
of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
|
002:015 | So
hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing
I hate. |
002:016 | Repent;
or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the
sword of my mouth. |
002:017 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To
him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him
a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving
he that receiveth it. |
002:018 | And
unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son
of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like
fine brass; |
002:019 | I
know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and
thy works; and the last to be more than the first. |
002:020 | Notwithstanding
I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel,
which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit
fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. |
002:021 | And
I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. |
002:022 | Behold,
I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great
tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. |
002:023 | And
I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I
am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one
of you according to your works. |
002:024 | But
unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine,
and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon
you none other burden. |
002:025 | But
that which ye have already hold fast till I come. |
002:026 | And
he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power
over the nations: |
002:027 | And
he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they
be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. |
002:028 | And
I will give him the morning star. |
002:029 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
|
003:001
| And
unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath
the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou
hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. | 003:002 | Be
watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for
I have not found thy works perfect before God. |
003:003 | Remember
therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore
thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know
what hour I will come upon thee. |
003:004 | Thou
hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and
they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy. |
003:005 | He
that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not
blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before
my Father, and before his angels. |
003:006 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
003:007 | And
to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that
is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and
no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; |
003:008 | I
know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can
shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not
denied my name. |
003:009 | Behold,
I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are
not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet,
and to know that I have loved thee. |
003:010 | Because
thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour
of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell
upon the earth. |
003:011 | Behold,
I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
|
003:012 | Him
that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall
go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name
of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven
from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. |
003:013 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
003:014 | And
unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the
Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
|
003:015 | I
know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold
or hot. |
003:016 | So
then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee
out of my mouth. |
003:017 | Because
thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;
and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind,
and naked: |
003:018 | I
counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich;
and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness
do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. |
003:019 | As
many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. |
003:020 | Behold,
I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door,
I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. |
003:021 | To
him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also
overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. |
003:022 | He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. |
|
004:001
| After
this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice
which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come
up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. | 004:002 | And
immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and
one sat on the throne. |
004:003 | And
he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was
a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. |
004:004 | And
round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw
four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their
heads crowns of gold. |
004:005 | And
out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there
were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits
of God. |
004:006 | And
before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst
of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before
and behind. |
004:007 | And
the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the
third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.
|
004:008 | And
the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of
eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, LORD
God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. |
004:009 | And
when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne,
who liveth for ever and ever, |
004:010 | The
four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship
him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne,
saying, |
004:011 | Thou
art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created
all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. |
|
005:001
| And
I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within
and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. | 005:002 | And
I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the
book, and to loose the seals thereof? |
005:003 | And
no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the
book, neither to look thereon. |
005:004 | And
I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book,
neither to look thereon. |
005:005 | And
one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of
Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the
seven seals thereof. |
005:006 | And
I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in
the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns
and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the
earth. |
005:007 | And
he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
|
005:008 | And
when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell
down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full
of odours, which are the prayers of saints. |
005:009 | And
they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open
the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy
blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; |
005:010 | And
hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
|
005:011 | And
I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and
the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten
thousand, and thousands of thousands; |
005:012 | Saying
with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and
riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. |
005:013 | And
every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and
such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing,
and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne,
and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. |
005:014 | And
the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped
him that liveth for ever and ever. |
|
006:001
| And
I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise
of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. | 006:002 | And
I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown
was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. |
006:003 | And
when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and
see. |
006:004 | And
there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that
sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another:
and there was given unto him a great sword. |
006:005 | And
when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see.
And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances
in his hand. |
006:006 | And
I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for
a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the
oil and the wine. |
006:007 | And
when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say,
Come and see. |
006:008 | And
I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death,
and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part
of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with
the beasts of the earth. |
006:009 | And
when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them
that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
|
006:010 | And
they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost
thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? |
006:011 | And
white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that
they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and
their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. |
006:012 | And
I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake;
and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
|
006:013 | And
the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely
figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. |
006:014 | And
the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain
and island were moved out of their places. |
006:015 | And
the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief
captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves
in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; |
006:016 | And
said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him
that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: |
006:017 | For
the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? |
|
007:001
| And
after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth,
holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth,
nor on the sea, nor on any tree. | 007:002 | And
I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living
God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given
to hurt the earth and the sea, |
007:003 | Saying,
Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the
servants of our God in their foreheads. |
007:004 | And
I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred
and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. |
007:005 | Of
the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were
sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. |
007:006 | Of
the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were
sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
|
007:007 | Of
the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were
sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
|
007:008 | Of
the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were
sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
|
007:009 | After
this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all
nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and
before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; |
007:010 | And
cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the
throne, and unto the Lamb. |
007:011 | And
all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four
beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, |
007:012 | Saying,
Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power,
and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. |
007:013 | And
one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed
in white robes? and whence came they? |
007:014 | And
I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which
came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white
in the blood of the Lamb. |
007:015 | Therefore
are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple:
and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. |
007:016 | They
shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light
on them, nor any heat. |
007:017 | For
the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead
them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from
their eyes. |
|
008:001
| And
when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the
space of half an hour. | 008:002 | And
I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven
trumpets. |
008:003 | And
another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there
was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of
all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. |
008:004 | And
the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended
up before God out of the angel's hand. |
008:005 | And
the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it
into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and
an earthquake. |
008:006 | And
the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
|
008:007 | The
first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and
they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and
all green grass was burnt up. |
008:008 | And
the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire
was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; |
008:009 | And
the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died;
and the third part of the ships were destroyed. |
008:010 | And
the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as
it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the
fountains of waters; |
008:011 | And
the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became
wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. |
008:012 | And
the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the
third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part
of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the
night likewise. |
008:013 | And
I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with
a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the
other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! |
|
009:001
| And
the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth:
and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. | 009:002 | And
he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the
smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of
the smoke of the pit. |
009:003 | And
there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given
power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. |
009:004 | And
it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither
any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal
of God in their foreheads. |
009:005 | And
to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be
tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion,
when he striketh a man. |
009:006 | And
in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire
to die, and death shall flee from them. |
009:007 | And
the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and
on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the
faces of men. |
009:008 | And
they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
|
009:009 | And
they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their
wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. |
009:010 | And
they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and
their power was to hurt men five months. |
009:011 | And
they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose
name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name
Apollyon. |
009:012 | One
woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. |
009:013 | And
the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden
altar which is before God, |
009:014 | Saying
to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound
in the great river Euphrates. |
009:015 | And
the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and
a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. |
009:016 | And
the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand:
and I heard the number of them. |
009:017 | And
thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates
of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as
the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
|
009:018 | By
these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke,
and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. |
009:019 | For
their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like
unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. |
009:020 | And
the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not
of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols
of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see,
nor hear, nor walk: |
009:021 | Neither
repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication,
nor of their thefts. |
|
010:001
| And
I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and
a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet
as pillars of fire: | 010:002 | And
he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea,
and his left foot on the earth, |
010:003 | And
cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven
thunders uttered their voices. |
010:004 | And
when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and
I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the
seven thunders uttered, and write them not. |
010:005 | And
the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand
to heaven, |
010:006 | And
sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things
that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea,
and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: |
010:007 | But
in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound,
the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants
the prophets. |
010:008 | And
the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take
the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon
the sea and upon the earth. |
010:009 | And
I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said
unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it
shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. |
010:010 | And
I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in
my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
|
010:011 | And
he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations,
and tongues, and kings. |
|
011:001
| And
there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise,
and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
| 011:002 | But
the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it
is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty
and two months. |
011:003 | And
I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand
two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. |
011:004 | These
are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of
the earth. |
011:005 | And
if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth
their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
|
011:006 | These
have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy:
and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with
all plagues, as often as they will. |
011:007 | And
when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out
of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them,
and kill them. |
011:008 | And
their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually
is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. |
011:009 | And
they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead
bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be
put in graves. |
011:010 | And
they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and
shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them
that dwelt on the earth. |
011:011 | And
after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them,
and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
|
011:012 | And
they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And
they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. |
011:013 | And
the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city
fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant
were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. |
011:014 | The
second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. |
011:015 | And
the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The
kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ;
and he shall reign for ever and ever. |
011:016 | And
the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon
their faces, and worshipped God, |
011:017 | Saying,
We give thee thanks, O LORD God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come;
because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. |
011:018 | And
the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that
they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants
the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great;
and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. |
011:019 | And
the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the
ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings,
and an earthquake, and great hail. |
|
012:001
| And
there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and
the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: | 012:002 | And
she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
|
012:003 | And
there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having
seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. |
012:004 | And
his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the
earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered,
for to devour her child as soon as it was born. |
012:005 | And
she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron:
and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. |
012:006 | And
the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God,
that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
|
012:007 | And
there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon;
and the dragon fought and his angels, |
012:008 | And
prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. |
012:009 | And
the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan,
which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels
were cast out with him. |
012:010 | And
I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength,
and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of
our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
|
012:011 | And
they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony;
and they loved not their lives unto the death. |
012:012 | Therefore
rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the
earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath,
because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. |
012:013 | And
when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman
which brought forth the man child. |
012:014 | And
to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into
the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times,
and half a time, from the face of the serpent. |
012:015 | And
the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he
might cause her to be carried away of the flood. |
012:016 | And
the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up
the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. |
012:017 | And
the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant
of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of
Jesus Christ. |
|
013:001
| And
I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads
the name of blasphemy. | 013:002 | And
the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet
of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his
power, and his seat, and great authority. |
013:003 | And
I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was
healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. |
013:004 | And
they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped
the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with
him? |
013:005 | And
there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and
power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. |
013:006 | And
he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his
tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. |
013:007 | And
it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and
power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. |
013:008 | And
all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written
in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. |
013:009 | If
any man have an ear, let him hear. |
013:010 | He
that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the
sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of
the saints. |
013:011 | And
I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like
a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. |
013:012 | And
he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the
earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly
wound was healed. |
013:013 | And
he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the
earth in the sight of men, |
013:014 | And
deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which
he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on
the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound
by a sword, and did live. |
013:015 | And
he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the
beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image
of the beast should be killed. |
013:016 | And
he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive
a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: |
013:017 | And
that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the
beast, or the number of his name. |
013:018 | Here
is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for
it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
|
|
014:001
| And
I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred
forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
| 014:002 | And
I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice
of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
|
014:003 | And
they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts,
and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty
and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. |
014:004 | These
are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are
they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from
among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. |
014:005 | And
in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne
of God. |
014:006 | And
I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel
to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred,
and tongue, and people, |
014:007 | Saying
with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment
is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the
fountains of waters. |
014:008 | And
there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great
city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
|
014:009 | And
the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship
the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
|
014:010 | The
same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without
mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire
and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the
Lamb: |
014:011 | And
the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no
rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth
the mark of his name. |
014:012 | Here
is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of
God, and the faith of Jesus. |
014:013 | And
I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest
from their labours; and their works do follow them. |
014:014 | And
I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the
Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
|
014:015 | And
another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that
sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for
thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. |
014:016 | And
he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was
reaped. |
014:017 | And
another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp
sickle. |
014:018 | And
another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried
with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp
sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are
fully ripe. |
014:019 | And
the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the
earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. |
014:020 | And
the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress,
even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
|
|
015:001
| And
I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the
seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God. | 015:002 | And
I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten
the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over
the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
|
015:003 | And
they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,
Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy
ways, thou King of saints. |
015:004 | Who
shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy:
for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made
manifest. |
015:005 | And
after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony
in heaven was opened: |
015:006 | And
the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed
in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.
|
015:007 | And
one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of
the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. |
015:008 | And
the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power;
and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the
seven angels were fulfilled. |
|
016:001
| And
I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your
ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. | 016:002 | And
the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome
and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them
which worshipped his image. |
016:003 | And
the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood
of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. |
016:004 | And
the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters;
and they became blood. |
016:005 | And
I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art,
and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. |
016:006 | For
they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood
to drink; for they are worthy. |
016:007 | And
I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and
righteous are thy judgments. |
016:008 | And
the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto
him to scorch men with fire. |
016:009 | And
men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath
power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. |
016:010 | And
the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom
was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, |
016:011 | And
blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented
not of their deeds. |
016:012 | And
the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the
water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be
prepared. |
016:013 | And
I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon,
and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
|
016:014 | For
they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings
of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great
day of God Almighty. |
016:015 | Behold,
I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest
he walk naked, and they see his shame. |
016:016 | And
he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
|
016:017 | And
the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great
voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. |
016:018 | And
there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake,
such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and
so great. |
016:019 | And
the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations
fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the
cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. |
016:020 | And
every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. |
016:021 | And
there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight
of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for
the plague thereof was exceeding great. |
|
017:001
| And
there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with
me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the
great whore that sitteth upon many waters: | 017:002 | With
whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants
of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. |
017:003 | So
he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit
upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads
and ten horns. |
017:004 | And
the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and
precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations
and filthiness of her fornication: |
017:005 | And
upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER
OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. |
017:006 | And
I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of
the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
|
017:007 | And
the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery
of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads
and ten horns. |
017:008 | The
beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless
pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder,
whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the
world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. |
017:009 | And
here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on
which the woman sitteth. |
017:010 | And
there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet
come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. |
017:011 | And
the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven,
and goeth into perdition. |
017:012 | And
the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom
as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. |
017:013 | These
have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. |
017:014 | These
shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord
of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen,
and faithful. |
017:015 | And
he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are
peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. |
017:016 | And
the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore,
and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her
with fire. |
017:017 | For
God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their
kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. |
017:018 | And
the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings
of the earth. |
|
018:001
| And
after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great
power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. | 018:002 | And
he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen,
is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul
spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. |
018:003 | For
all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the
kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of
the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. |
018:004 | And
I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that
ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. |
018:005 | For
her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
|
018:006 | Reward
her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works:
in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. |
018:007 | How
much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and
sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow,
and shall see no sorrow. |
018:008 | Therefore
shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she
shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
|
018:009 | And
the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously
with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke
of her burning, |
018:010 | Standing
afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon,
that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. |
018:011 | And
the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth
their merchandise any more: |
018:012 | The
merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine
linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner
vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass,
and iron, and marble, |
018:013 | And
cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and
fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and
slaves, and souls of men. |
018:014 | And
the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things
which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them
no more at all. |
018:015 | The
merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off
for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, |
018:016 | And
saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple,
and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! |
018:017 | For
in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all
the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar
off, |
018:018 | And
cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto
this great city! |
018:019 | And
they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas,
alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea
by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate. |
018:020 | Rejoice
over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged
you on her. |
018:021 | And
a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the
sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down,
and shall be found no more at all. |
018:022 | And
the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be
heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be,
shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard
no more at all in thee; |
018:023 | And
the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of
the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for
thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all
nations deceived. |
018:024 | And
in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were
slain upon the earth. |
|
019:001
| And
after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying,
Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:
| 019:002 | For
true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which
did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his
servants at her hand. |
019:003 | And
again they said, Alleluia And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. |
019:004 | And
the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God
that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. |
019:005 | And
a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants,
and ye that fear him, both small and great. |
019:006 | And
I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many
waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord
God omnipotent reigneth. |
019:007 | Let
us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb
is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. |
019:008 | And
to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white:
for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. |
019:009 | And
he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage
supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
|
019:010 | And
I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not:
I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus:
worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. |
019:011 | And
I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was
called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
|
019:012 | His
eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had
a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. |
019:013 | And
he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word
of God. |
019:014 | And
the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in
fine linen, white and clean. |
019:015 | And
out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations:
and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of
the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. |
019:016 | And
he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND
LORD OF LORDS. |
019:017 | And
I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying
to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves
together unto the supper of the great God; |
019:018 | That
ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of
mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the
flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. |
019:019 | And
I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together
to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. |
019:020 | And
the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before
him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and
them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire
burning with brimstone. |
019:021 | And
the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which
sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their
flesh. |
|
020:001
| And
I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit
and a great chain in his hand. | 020:002 | And
he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan,
and bound him a thousand years, |
020:003 | And
cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him,
that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should
be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. |
020:004 | And
I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and
I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for
the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image,
neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and
they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. |
020:005 | But
the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.
This is the first resurrection. |
020:006 | Blessed
and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second
death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall
reign with him a thousand years. |
020:007 | And
when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
|
020:008 | And
shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth,
Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as
the sand of the sea. |
020:009 | And
they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints
about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and
devoured them. |
020:010 | And
the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone,
where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night
for ever and ever. |
020:011 | And
I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth
and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. |
020:012 | And
I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened:
and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged
out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
|
020:013 | And
the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up
the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their
works. |
020:014 | And
death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. |
020:015 | And
whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake
of fire. |
|
021:001
| And
I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth
were passed away; and there was no more sea. | 021:002 | And
I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven,
prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. |
021:003 | And
I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is
with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God
himself shall be with them, and be their God. |
021:004 | And
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death,
neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former
things are passed away. |
021:005 | And
he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said
unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. |
021:006 | And
he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
|
021:007 | He
that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall
be my son. |
021:008 | But
the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers,
and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake
which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. |
021:009 | And
there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of
the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew
thee the bride, the Lamb's wife. |
021:010 | And
he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me
that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, |
021:011 | Having
the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like
a jasper stone, clear as crystal; |
021:012 | And
had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels,
and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the
children of Israel: |
021:013 | On
the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and
on the west three gates. |
021:014 | And
the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve
apostles of the Lamb. |
021:015 | And
he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates
thereof, and the wall thereof. |
021:016 | And
the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he
measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the
breadth and the height of it are equal. |
021:017 | And
he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according
to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel. |
021:018 | And
the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like
unto clear glass. |
021:019 | And
the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious
stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a
chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald; |
021:020 | The
fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl;
the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the
twelfth, an amethyst. |
021:021 | And
the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and
the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. |
021:022 | And
I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple
of it. |
021:023 | And
the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the
glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. |
021:024 | And
the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the
kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. |
021:025 | And
the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night
there. |
021:026 | And
they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it. |
021:027 | And
there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever
worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's
book of life. |
|
022:001
| And
he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out
of the throne of God and of the Lamb. | 022:002 | In
the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the
tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every
month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. |
022:003 | And
there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be
in it; and his servants shall serve him: |
022:004 | And
they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. |
022:005 | And
there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the
sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and
ever. |
022:006 | And
he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the
holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must
shortly be done. |
022:007 | Behold,
I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this
book. |
022:008 | And
I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell
down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
|
022:009 | Then
saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy
brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship
God. |
022:010 | And
he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the
time is at hand. |
022:011 | He
that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be
filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he
that is holy, let him be holy still. |
022:012 | And,
behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according
as his work shall be. |
022:013 | I
am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. |
022:014 | Blessed
are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of
life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. |
022:015 | For
without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters,
and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. |
022:016 | I
Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.
I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
|
022:017 | And
the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And
let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of
life freely. |
022:018 | For
I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book,
If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues
that are written in this book: |
022:019 | And
if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God
shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city,
and from the things which are written in this book. |
022:020 | He
which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so,
come, Lord Jesus. |
022:021 | The
grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. |
