Revelation 17:8-10
English Standard Version
8 The beast that you saw (A)was, and is not, and (B)is about to rise from (C)the bottomless pit[a] and (D)go to destruction. And (E)the dwellers on earth whose names have not been written in (F)the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel to see the beast, because (G)it was and is not and is to come. 9 (H)This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated; 10 they are also seven kings, five of whom have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he does come he must remain only a little while.
