Revelation 13:1-10

The Beast from the Sea

And the ¹dragon stood on the sand of the ²seashore.
Then I saw a ^abeast coming up out of the sea, having ^bten horns and ^bseven heads, and on his horns were ^cten diadems, and on his heads were ^dblasphemous names. 2 And the beast which I saw was ^alike a leopard, and his feet were like those of ^ba bear, and his mouth like the mouth of ^ca lion. And the ^ddragon gave him his power and his ^ethrone and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been ¹slain fatally, and his ^afatal wound was healed. And the whole earth ^bmarveled and followed after the beast. 4 And they worshiped the ^adragon because he ^agave his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “^bWho is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?” 5 And there was given to him a mouth ^aspeaking ¹great boasts and blasphemies, and authority to act for ^bforty-two months was given to him. 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, ^athose who ¹dwell in heaven.
7 And it was also given to him to ^amake war with the saints and to overcome them, and authority over ^bevery tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him. 8 And all who ^adwell on the earth will worship him, everyone ^bwhose name has not been ¹written ^cfrom the foundation of the world in the ^dbook of life of ^ethe Lamb who has been slain. 9 ^aIf anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 ^aIf anyone ¹is destined for captivity, to captivity he goes; ^bif anyone kills with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is ^cthe perseverance and the faith of the saints.
