Revelation 14:11-15

New International Version

¹¹ And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever.^(A) There will be no rest day or night^(B) for those who worship the beast and its image,^(C) or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”^{(D) 12} This calls for patient endurance^(E) on the part of the people of God^(F) who keep his commands^(G) and remain faithful to Jesus.

¹³ Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord^(H) from now on.”

“Yes,” says the Spirit,^(I) “they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.”

Harvesting the Earth and Trampling the Winepress

¹⁴ I looked, and there before me was a white cloud,^(J) and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man^[a](K) with a crown^(L) of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. ¹⁵ Then another angel came out of the temple^(M) and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle^(N) and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest^(O) of the earth is ripe.”
