Revelation 14:9-13

English Standard Version

⁹ And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone ^(A)worships the beast and its image and receives ^(B)a mark on his forehead or on his hand, ¹⁰ he also will drink ^(C)the wine of God's wrath, ^(D)poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and ^(E)he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. ¹¹ And ^(F)the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and ^(G)they have no rest, day or night, these ^(H)worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name.”

^12 (I)Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who ^(J)keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus.^[a]

¹³ And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: ^(K)Blessed are the dead ^(L)who die in the Lord from now on.” “Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit, ^(M)“that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!”
