Revelation 16:13-16
New King James Version
13 And I saw three unclean (A)spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of (B)the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of (C)the false prophet. 14 For they are spirits of demons, (D)performing signs, which go out to the kings [a]of the earth and of (E)the whole world, to gather them to (F)the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
15 (G)“Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, (H)lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”
16 (I)And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, [b]Armageddon.

Armageddon
13 And I saw three loathsome spirits like frogs, leaping from the mouth of the dragon (Satan) and from the mouth of the beast (Antichrist, dictator) and from the mouth of the false prophet;(A) 14 for they are [actually] the spirits of demons, performing [miraculous] signs. And they go out to the kings of the entire inhabited earth, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God, the Almighty. 15 (“Behold, I am coming like a thief. [a]Blessed is he who [b]stays awake and who keeps his clothes [that is, stays spiritually ready for the Lord’s return], so that he will not be naked—spiritually unprepared—and men will not see his shame.”)(B) 16 And they (demons) gathered the kings and armies of the world together at the place which in Hebrew is called [c]Har-Magedon (Armageddon).

The Message
Revelation 16:13-16
The Message
12-14 The sixth Angel poured his bowl on the great Euphrates River: It dried up to nothing. The dry riverbed became a fine roadbed for the kings from the East. From the mouths of the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet I saw three foul demons crawl out—they looked like frogs. These are demon spirits performing signs. They’re after the kings of the whole world to get them gathered for battle on the Great Day of God, the Sovereign-Strong.
15 “Keep watch! I come unannounced, like a thief. You’re blessed if, awake and dressed, you’re ready for me. Too bad if you’re found running through the streets, naked and ashamed.”
16 The frog-demons gathered the kings together at the place called in Hebrew Armageddon.
