Revelation 13:15-17

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁵ It was permitted to give breath^[a] to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast could both speak and cause whoever would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.^{(A) 16} And it makes everyone—small and great, rich and poor, free and slave—to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead,^{(B) 17} so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark: the beast’s name or the number of its name.
