NASB Bible

Revelation 14

The Lamb and the 144,000 on Mount Zion

1

Then I looked, and behold,  athe Lamb was standing on  bMount Zion, and with Him  cone hundred and forty-four thousand, having  dHis name and the  dname of His Father written  eon their foreheads.

2

And I heard a voice from heaven, like  athe sound of many waters and like the  bsound of loud thunder, and the voice which I heard was like the sound of  charpists playing on their harps.

3

And they * 1sang  aa new song before the throne and before the  bfour living creatures and the  celders; and  dno one could learn the song except the  eone hundred and forty-four thousand who had been  apurchased from the earth.

4

 aThese are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they  1have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who  bfollow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been  cpurchased from among men  das first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

5

And  ano lie was found in their mouth; they are  bblameless.

Vision of the Angel with the Gospel

6

And I saw another angel flying in  amidheaven, having  ban eternal gospel to preach to  cthose who  1live on the earth, and to  devery nation and tribe and tongue and people;

7

and he said with a loud voice, " aFear God, and  bgive Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who  cmade the heaven and the earth and sea and  dsprings of waters."

8

And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, " 1 aFallen, fallen is  bBabylon the great, she who has  cmade all the nations drink of the  dwine of the  2passion of her immorality."

Doom for Worshipers of the Beast

9

Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone  aworships the beast and his  bimage, and receives a  cmark on his forehead or on his hand,

10

he also will drink of the  awine of the wrath of God, which is mixed  1in full strength  bin the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with  cfire and  2brimstone in the presence of the  dholy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

11

"And the  asmoke of their torment goes up forever and ever;  bthey have no rest day and night, those who  cworship the beast and his  cimage, and  1whoever receives the  dmark of his name."

12

Here is  athe  1perseverance of the  2saints who  bkeep the commandments of God and  3 ctheir faith in Jesus.

13

And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, "Write, ` aBlessed are the dead who  bdie in the Lord from now on!' " "Yes,"  csays the Spirit, "so that they may  drest from their labors, for their  edeeds follow with them."

The Reapers

14

Then I looked, and behold, a  awhite cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one  blike  1a son of man, having a golden  ccrown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand.

15

And another angel  acame out of the  1temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, " 2 bPut in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the  charvest of the earth  3is ripe."

16

Then He who sat on the cloud  1swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.

17

And another angel  acame out of the  1temple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle.

18

Then another angel,  athe one who has power over fire, came out from  bthe altar; and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, " 1 cPut in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters  2from the vine of the earth,  dbecause her grapes are ripe."

19

So the angel  1swung his sickle to the earth and gathered the clusters from the vine of the earth, and threw them into  athe great wine press of the wrath of God.

20

And  athe wine press was trodden  boutside the city, and  cblood came out from the wine press, up to the horses' bridles,  1for a distance of  2two hundred miles.
