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
.
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
.
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
.
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
?
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
.
And he opened
his
mouth
in
blasphemy
against
God
, to blaspheme
his
name
, and
his
tabernacle
, and
them that dwell
in
heaven
.
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
.
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
.
If any man have
an ear
, let him hear
.
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
.
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
.
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
.
And he doeth
great
wonders
, so
that
he maketh
fire
come down
from
heaven
on
the earth
in the sight
of men
,
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
.
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
.
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
:
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
.
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
.
