17 And I saw an angel, standing in the sun; and he cried with a great voice, and said [saying] to all birds that flew by the middle of heaven, Come ye, and be ye gathered [together] to the great supper of God,

18 that ye eat the flesh of kings, and [the] flesh of tribunes, and [the] flesh of strong men, and flesh of horses, and of those that sit on them, and the flesh of all free men and of bondmen, and of small and of great [and small and great].

19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and the hosts of them gathered, to make battle with him, that sat on the horse, and with his host.

20 And the beast was caught, and with her the false prophet, that made signs before her; in which he deceived them that took the character of the beast [that took the mark of the beast], and that worshipped the image of it. These two were sent quick into the pool of fire, burning with brimstone.

21 And the others were slain with the sword of him that sat on [upon] the horse, that cometh forth of the mouth of him; and all birds were filled with the flesh of them.

19 Then I saw the beast(H) and the kings of the earth(I) and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse(J) and his army. 20 But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet(K) who had performed the signs(L) on its behalf.(M) With these signs he had deluded(N) those who had received the mark of the beast(O) and worshiped its image.(P) The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake(Q) of burning sulfur.(R) 21 The rest were killed with the sword(S) coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse,(T) and all the birds(U) gorged themselves on their flesh.
