Revelation 13:3-5

Modern English Version

³ I saw one of his heads as if it was mortally wounded, but his deadly wound was healed, and the whole world marveled and followed the beast. ⁴ They worshipped the dragon who gave authority to the beast. And they worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to wage war with him?”

⁵ He was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies. And he was given authority to wage war for forty-two months.
