New Testament Revelation Revelation 1
King
James Version
1 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: 2 Who bare record of the
word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he
saw. 3 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. 4 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; 5 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, 6 And hath made us kings
and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever
and ever. Amen. 7 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. 8 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. 9 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. 10 I was in the Spirit on
the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, 11 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. 12 And I turned to see the
voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw
seven golden candlesticks; 13 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. 14 His head and his hairs
were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; 15 And his feet like unto
fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of
many waters. 16 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. 17 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: 18 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. 19 Write the things which
thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be
hereafter; 20 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. Revelation 2
King
James Version
2 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; 2 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: 3 And hast borne, and
hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured,
and hast not fainted. 4 Nevertheless I have
somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. 5 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. 6 But this thou hast,
that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes,
which I also hate. 7 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. 8 And unto the angel of
the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which
was dead, and is alive; 9 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. 10 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. 11 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. 12 And to the angel of the
church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword
with two edges; 13 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. 14 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. 15 So hast thou also them
that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate. 16 Repent; or else I will
come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my
mouth. 17 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. 18 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; 19 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. 20 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. 21 And I gave her space to
repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22 Behold, I will cast her
into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation,
except they repent of their deeds. 23 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. 24 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. 25 But that which ye have
already hold fast till I come. 26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my
works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27 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. 28 And I will give him the
morning star. 29 He that hath an ear,
let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Revelation 3
King
James Version
3 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. 2 Be watchful, and
strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not
found thy works perfect before God. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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. 6 He that hath an ear,
let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. 7 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; 8 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. 9 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. 10 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. 11 Behold, I come quickly:
hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 12 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. 13 He that hath an ear,
let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. 14 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; 15 I know thy works, that
thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou
art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. 17 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: 18 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. 19 As many as I love, I
rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. 20 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. 21 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. 22 He that hath an ear,
let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Revelation 4
King
James Version
4 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. 2 And immediately I was
in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the
throne. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. 9 And when those beasts
give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on
the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, 10 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, 11 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. Revelation 5
King
James Version
5 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. 2 And I saw a strong
angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? 3 And no man in heaven,
nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to
look thereon. 4 And I wept much,
because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look
thereon. 5 And one of the elders
saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of
David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose
the seven seals thereof. 6 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. 7 And he came and took
the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne. 8 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. 9 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; 10 And hast made us unto
our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 11 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; 12 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. 13 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. 14 And the four beasts
said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever. Revelation 6
King
James Version
6 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. 2 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. 3 And when he had opened
the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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. 7 And when he had opened
the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8 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. 9 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: 10 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? 11 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. 12 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; 13 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. 14 And the heaven departed
as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were
moved out of their places. 15 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; 16 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: 17 For the great day of
his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Revelation 7
King
James Version
7 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. 2 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, 3 Saying, Hurt not the
earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of
our God in their foreheads. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. 9 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; 10 And cried with a loud
voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth
upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. 11 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, 12 Saying, Amen: Blessing,
and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour,
and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. 13 And one of the elders
answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes?
and whence came they? 14 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. 15 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. 16 They shall hunger no
more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the
sun light on them, nor any heat. 17 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. Revelation 8
King
James Version
8 And
when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the
space of half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven
angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 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. 4 And the smoke of the
incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God
out of the angel's hand. 5 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. 6 And the seven angels
which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. 7 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. 8 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; 9 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. 10 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; 11 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. 12 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. 13 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! Revelation 9
King
James Version
9 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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. 6 And in those days shall
men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death
shall flee from them. 7 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. 8 And they had hair as
the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. 9 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. 10 And they had tails like
unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to
hurt men five months. 11 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. 12 One woe is past; and,
behold, there come two woes more hereafter. 13 And the sixth angel
sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is
before God, 14 Saying to the sixth
angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the
great river Euphrates. 15 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. 16 And the number of the
army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand:
and I heard the number of them. 17 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. 18 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. 19 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. 20 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: 21 Neither repented they
of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of
their thefts. Revelation 10
King
James Version
10 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: 2 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, 3 And cried with a loud
voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had
cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4 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. 5 And the angel which I
saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6 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: 7 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. 8 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. 9 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. 10 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. 11 And he said unto me,
Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and
kings. Revelation 11
King
James Version
11 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. 2 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. 3 And I will give power
unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and
threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4 These are the two olive
trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5 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. 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. 9 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. 10 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. 11 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. 12 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. 13 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. 14 The second woe is past;
and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. 15 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. 16 And the four and twenty
elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and
worshipped God, 17 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. 18 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. 19 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. Revelation 12
King
James Version
12 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: 2 And she being with
child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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. 7 And there was war in
heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon
fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not;
neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 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. 10 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. 11 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. 12 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. 13 And when the dragon saw
that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth
the man child. 14 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. 15 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. 16 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. 17 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. Revelation 13
King
James Version
13 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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? 5 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. 6 And he opened his mouth
in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them
that dwell in heaven. 7 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. 8 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. 9 If any man have an ear,
let him hear. 10 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. 11 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. 12 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. 13 And he doeth great
wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the
sight of men, 14 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. 15 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. 16 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: 17 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. 18 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. Revelation 14
King
James Version
14 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. 2 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: 3 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. 4 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. 5 And in their mouth was
found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. 6 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, 7 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. 8 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. 9 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, 10 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: 11 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. 12 Here is the patience of
the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of
Jesus. 13 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. 14 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. 15 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. 16 And he that sat on the
cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. 17 And another angel came
out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. 18 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. 19 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. 20 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. Revelation 15
King
James Version
15 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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. 5 And after that I
looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven
was opened: 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. Revelation 16
King
James Version
16 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 And the third angel
poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became
blood. 5 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. 6 For they have shed the
blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for
they are worthy. 7 And I heard another out
of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy
judgments. 8 And the fourth angel
poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men
with fire. 9 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. 10 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, 11 And blasphemed the God
of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their
deeds. 12 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. 13 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. 14 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. 15 Behold, I come as a
thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see
his shame. 16 And he gathered them
together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. 17 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. 18 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. 19 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. 20 And every island fled
away, and the mountains were not found. 21 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. Revelation 17
King
James Version
17 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: 2 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. 3 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. 4 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: 5 And upon her forehead
was a name written, Mystery,
Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth. 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. 9 And here is the mind
which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. 10 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. 11 And the beast that was,
and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 12 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. 13 These have one mind,
and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. 14 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. 15 And he saith unto me,
The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and
tongues. 16 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. 17 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. 18 And the woman which
thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Revelation 18
King
James Version
18 And
after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great
power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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. 5 For her sins have
reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. 9 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, 10 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. 11 And the merchants of
the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth
their merchandise any more: 12 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, 13 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. 14 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. 15 The merchants of these
things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her
torment, weeping and wailing, 16 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! 17 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, 18 And cried when they saw
the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city! 19 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. 20 Rejoice over her, thou
heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her. 21 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. 22 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; 23 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. 24 And in her was found
the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the
earth. Revelation 19
King
James Version
19 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: 2 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. 3 And again they said,
Alleluia And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. 4 And the four and twenty
elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the
throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. 5 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. 6 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. 7 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. 8 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. 9 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. 10 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. 11 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. 12 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. 13 And he was clothed with
a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies which
were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white
and clean. 15 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. 16 And he hath on his
vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords. 17 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; 18 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. 19 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. 20 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. 21 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. Revelation 20
King
James Version
20 And I
saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and
a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the
dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a
thousand years, 3 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. 4 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. 5 But the rest of the
dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the
first resurrection. 6 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. 7 And when the thousand
years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 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. 9 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. 10 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. 11 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. 12 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. 13 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. 14 And death and hell were
cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not
found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 21
King
James Version
21 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. 2 And I John saw the holy
city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride
adorned for her husband. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his
God, and he shall be my son. 8 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. 9 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. 10 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, 11 Having the glory of
God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper
stone, clear as crystal; 12 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: 13 On the east three
gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west
three gates. 14 And the wall of the
city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of
the Lamb. 15 And he that talked with
me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall
thereof. 16 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. 17 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. 18 And the building of the
wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. 19 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; 20 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. 21 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. 22 And I saw no temple
therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. 23 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. 24 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. 25 And the gates of it
shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. 26 And they shall bring
the glory and honour of the nations into it. 27 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. Revelation 22
King
James Version
22 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. 2 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. 3 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: 4 And they shall see his
face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. 5 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. 6 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. 7 Behold, I come quickly:
blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the
prophecy of this book. 8 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. 9 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. 10 And he saith unto me,
Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. 11 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. 12 And, behold, I come
quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work
shall be. 13 I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 14 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. 15 For without are dogs,
and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever
loveth and maketh a lie. 16 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. 17 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. 18 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: 19 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. 20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly.
Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. 21 The grace of our Lord
Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. |
