Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in + his own blood, + +66:001:006 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to + him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. + +66:001:007 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. + +66:001:008 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. + +66:001:009 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. + +66:001:010 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a + great voice, as of a trumpet, + +66:001:011 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. + +66:001:012 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being + turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; + +66:001:013 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. + +66:001:014 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; + and his eyes were as a flame of fire; + +66:001:015 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a + furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. + +66:001:016 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. + +66:001:017 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: + +66:001:018 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. + +66:001:019 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which + are, and the things which shall be hereafter; + +66:001:020 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. + +66:002:001 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; + +66:002:002 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: + +66:002:003 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast + laboured, and hast not fainted. + +66:002:004 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast + left thy first love. + +66:002:005 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. + +66:002:006 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the + Nicolaitanes, which I also hate. + +66:002:007 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. + +66:002:008 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things + saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; + +66:002:009 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. + +66:002:010 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. + +66:002:011 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. + +66:002:012 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things + saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges; + +66:002:013 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. + +66:002:014 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. + +66:002:015 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the + Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate. + +66:002:016 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight + against them with the sword of my mouth. + +66:002:017 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. + +66:002:018 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; + +66:002:019 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. + +66:002:020 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. + +66:002:021 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she + repented not. + +66:002:022 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit + adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent + of their deeds. + +66:002:023 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. + +66:002:024 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. + +66:002:025 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. + +66:002:026 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to + him will I give power over the nations: + +66:002:027 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. + +66:002:028 And I will give him the morning star. + +66:002:029 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto + the churches. + +66:003:001 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. + +66:003:002 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are + ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before + God. + +66:003:003 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. + +66:003:004 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. + +66:003:005 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. + +66:003:006 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto + the churches. + +66:003:007 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; + +66:003:008 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. + +66:003:009 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. + +66:003:010 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. + +66:003:011 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that + no man take thy crown. + +66:003:012 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. + +66:003:013 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto + the churches. + +66:003:014 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; + +66:003:015 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would + thou wert cold or hot. + +66:003:016 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I + will spue thee out of my mouth. + +66:003:017 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: + +66:003:018 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. + +66:003:019 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, + and repent. + +66:003:020 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. + +66:003:021 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. + +66:003:022 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto + the churches. + +66:004:001 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. + +66:004:002 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was + set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. + +66:004:003 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. + +66:004:004 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. + +66:004:005 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. + +66:004:006 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. + +66:004:007 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. + +66:004:008 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. + +66:004:009 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him + that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, + +66:004:010 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, + +66:004:011 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. + +66:005:001 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. + +66:005:002 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is + worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? + +66:005:003 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, + was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. + +66:005:004 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and + to read the book, neither to look thereon. + +66:005:005 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. + +66:005:006 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. + +66:005:007 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him + that sat upon the throne. + +66:005:008 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. + +66:005:009 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; + +66:005:010 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall + reign on the earth. + +66:005:011 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; + +66:005:012 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. + +66:005:013 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. + +66:005:014 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders + fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever. + +66:006:001 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. + +66:006:002 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. + +66:006:003 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second + beast say, Come and see. + +66:006:004 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. + +66:006:005 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. + +66:006:006 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. + +66:006:007 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of + the fourth beast say, Come and see. + +66:006:008 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. + +66:006:009 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: + +66:006:010 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? + +66:006:011 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. + +66:006:012 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; + +66:006:013 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. + +66:006:014 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled + together; and every mountain and island were moved out of + their places. + +66:006:015 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; + +66:006:016 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: + +66:006:017 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able + to stand? + +66:007:001 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. + +66:007:002 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, + +66:007:003 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, + till we have sealed the servants of our God in their + foreheads. + +66:007:004 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. + +66:007:005 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. + +66:007:006 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. + +66:007:007 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. + +66:007:008 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. + +66:007:009 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; + +66:007:010 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God + which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. + +66:007:011 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, + +66:007:012 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and + thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our + God for ever and ever. Amen. + +66:007:013 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these + which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? + +66:007:014 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. + +66:007:015 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. + +66:007:016 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither + shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. + +66:007:017 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. + +66:008:001 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in + heaven about the space of half an hour. + +66:008:002 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them + were given seven trumpets. + +66:008:003 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. + +66:008:004 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of + the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. + +66:008:005 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. + +66:008:006 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared + themselves to sound. + +66:008:007 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. + +66:008:008 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; + +66:008:009 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. + +66:008:010 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; + +66:008:011 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. + +66:008:012 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. + +66:008:013 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! + +66:009:001 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. + +66:009:002 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. + +66:009:003 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. + +66:009:004 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. + +66:009:005 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. + +66:009:006 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; + and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. + +66:009:007 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. + +66:009:008 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were + as the teeth of lions. + +66:009:009 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. + +66:009:010 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings + in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. + +66:009:011 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. + +66:009:012 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more + hereafter. + +66:009:013 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four + horns of the golden altar which is before God, + +66:009:014 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the + four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. + +66:009:015 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. + +66:009:016 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred + thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. + +66:009:017 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. + +66:009:018 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. + +66:009:019 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. + +66:009:020 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: + +66:009:021 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their + sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. + +66:010:001 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: + +66:010:002 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, + +66:010:003 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when + he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. + +66:010:004 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. + +66:010:005 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the + earth lifted up his hand to heaven, + +66:010:006 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: + +66:010:007 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. + +66:010:008 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. + +66:010:009 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. + +66:010:010 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. + +66:010:011 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many + peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings. + +66:011:001 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. + +66:011:002 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. + +66:011:003 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall + prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed + in sackcloth. + +66:011:004 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks + standing before the God of the earth. + +66:011:005 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. + +66:011:006 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. + +66:011:007 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. + +66:011:008 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. + +66:011:009 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. + +66:011:010 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. + +66:011:011 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. + +66:011:012 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. + +66:011:013 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. + +66:011:014 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh + quickly. + +66:011:015 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. + +66:011:016 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their + seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, + +66:011:017 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. + +66:011:018 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. + +66:011:019 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. + +66:012:001 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: + +66:012:002 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and + pained to be delivered. + +66:012:003 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. + +66:012:004 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. + +66:012:005 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. + +66:012:006 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. + +66:012:007 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought + against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, + +66:012:008 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in + heaven. + +66:012:009 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. + +66:012:010 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. + +66:012:011 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. + +66:012:012 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. + +66:012:013 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he + persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. + +66:012:014 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. + +66:012:015 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. + +66:012:016 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. + +66:012:017 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. + +66:013:001 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. + +66:013:002 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. + +66:013:003 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. + +66:013:004 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? + +66:013:005 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. + +66:013:006 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme + his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. + +66:013:007 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. + +66:013:008 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. + +66:013:009 If any man have an ear, let him hear. + +66:013:010 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. + +66:013:011 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. + +66:013:012 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. + +66:013:013 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down + from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, + +66:013:014 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. + +66:013:015 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. + +66:013:016 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: + +66:013:017 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. + +66:013:018 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. + +66:014:001 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. + +66:014:002 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: + +66:014:003 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. + +66:014:004 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. + +66:014:005 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without + fault before the throne of God. + +66:014:006 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, + +66:014:007 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. + +66:014:008 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. + +66:014:009 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, + +66:014:010 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: + +66:014:011 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. + +66:014:012 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep + the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. + +66:014:013 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. + +66:014:014 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. + +66:014:015 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. + +66:014:016 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the + earth; and the earth was reaped. + +66:014:017 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, + he also having a sharp sickle. + +66:014:018 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. + +66:014:019 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. + +66:014:020 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. + +66:015:001 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. + +66:015:002 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. + +66:015:003 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. + +66:015:004 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. + +66:015:005 And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the + tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: + +66:015:006 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. + +66:015:007 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. + +66:015:008 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. + +66:016:001 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. + +66:016:002 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. + +66:016:003 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. + +66:016:004 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and + fountains of waters; and they became blood. + +66:016:005 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. + +66:016:006 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou + hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. + +66:016:007 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God + Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments. + +66:016:008 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and + power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. + +66:016:009 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. + +66:016:010 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, + +66:016:011 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and + their sores, and repented not of their deeds. + +66:016:012 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. + +66:016:013 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. + +66:016:014 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. + +66:016:015 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and + keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his + shame. + +66:016:016 And he gathered them together into a place called in the + Hebrew tongue Armageddon. + +66:016:017 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. + +66:016:018 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. + +66:016:019 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. + +66:016:020 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. + +66:016:021 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. + +66:017:001 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: + +66:017:002 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. + +66:017:003 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. + +66:017:004 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: + +66:017:005 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE + GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. + +66:017:006 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. + +66:017:007 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. + +66:017:008 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. + +66:017:009 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are + seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. + +66:017:010 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. + +66:017:011 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and + is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. + +66:017:012 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. + +66:017:013 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength + unto the beast. + +66:017:014 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. + +66:017:015 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the + whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and + tongues. + +66:017:016 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. + +66:017:017 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. + +66:017:018 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which + reigneth over the kings of the earth. + +66:018:001 And after these things I saw another angel come down from + heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with + his glory. + +66:018:002 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. + +66:018:003 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. + +66:018:004 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. + +66:018:005 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered + her iniquities. + +66:018:006 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. + +66:018:007 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. + +66:018:008 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. + +66:018:009 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, + +66:018:010 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. + +66:018:011 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; + for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: + +66:018:012 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, + +66:018:013 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. + +66:018:014 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. + +66:018:015 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, + shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and + wailing, + +66:018:016 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! + +66:018:017 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, + +66:018:018 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What + city is like unto this great city! + +66:018:019 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. + +66:018:020 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and + prophets; for God hath avenged you on her. + +66:018:021 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. + +66:018:022 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; + +66:018:023 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. + +66:018:024 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and + of all that were slain upon the earth. + +66:019:001 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: + +66:019:002 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. + +66:019:003 And again they said, Alleluia And her smoke rose up for ever + and ever. + +66:019:004 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down + and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; + Alleluia. + +66:019:005 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. + +66:019:006 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. + +66:019:007 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. + +66:019:008 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. + +66:019:009 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. + +66:019:010 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. + +66:019:011 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. + +66:019:012 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. + +66:019:013 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his + name is called The Word of God. + +66:019:014 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white + horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. + +66:019:015 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. + +66:019:016 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, + KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. + +66:019:017 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; + +66:019:018 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. + +66:019:019 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. + +66:019:020 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. + +66:019:021 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. + +66:020:001 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of + the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. + +66:020:002 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the + Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, + +66:020:003 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. + +66:020:004 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. + +66:020:005 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand + years were finished. This is the first resurrection. + +66:020:006 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. + +66:020:007 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed + out of his prison, + +66:020:008 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. + +66:020:009 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. + +66:020:010 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. + +66:020:011 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. + +66:020:012 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. + +66:020:013 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. + +66:020:014 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is + the second death. + +66:020:015 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was + cast into the lake of fire. + +66:021:001 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. + +66:021:002 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from + God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her + husband. + +66:021:003 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. + +66:021:004 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. + +66:021:005 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. + +66:021:006 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. + +66:021:007 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his + God, and he shall be my son. + +66:021:008 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. + +66:021:009 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. + +66:021:010 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, + +66:021:011 Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone + most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; + +66:021:012 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: + +66:021:013 On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the + south three gates; and on the west three gates. + +66:021:014 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them + the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. + +66:021:015 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the + city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof. + +66:021:016 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. + +66:021:017 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. + +66:021:018 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city + was pure gold, like unto clear glass. + +66:021:019 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; + +66:021:020 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. + +66:021:021 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. + +66:021:022 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the + Lamb are the temple of it. + +66:021:023 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. + +66:021:024 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. + +66:021:025 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there + shall be no night there. + +66:021:026 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into + it. + +66:021:027 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. + +66:022:001 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. + +66:022:002 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. + +66:022:003 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: + +66:022:004 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their + foreheads. + +66:022:005 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. + +66:022:006 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. + +66:022:007 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings + of the prophecy of this book. + +66:022:008 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. + +66:022:009 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. + +66:022:010 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of + this book: for the time is at hand. + +66:022:011 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. + +66:022:012 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give + every man according as his work shall be. + +66:022:013 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and + the last. + +66:022:014 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. + +66:022:015 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and + murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a + lie. + +66:022:016 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. + +66:022:017 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. + +66:022:018 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: + +66:022:019 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. + +66:022:020 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. + Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. + +66:022:021 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. + + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE BIBLE, KING JAMES, BOOK 66 *** + +********** This file should be named 8066.txt or 8066.zip ********** + +This eBook was produced by David Widger +See above the credits to previous producers of this text. + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
