19 After meta this houtos I heard akouō what sounded like hōs the roar phōnē megas of a great polys throng ochlos in en · ho heaven ouranos, saying legō, “ Hallelujah hallēlouia! · ho Salvation sōtēria and kai · ho glory doxa and kai · ho power dynamis belong to ho our hēmeis God theos, because hoti true alēthinos and kai just dikaios are · ho his autos judgments krisis. For hoti he has judged krinō the ho great megas prostitute pornē · ho who hostis corrupted phtheirō the ho earth with en · ho her autos immorality porneia, and kai has avenged ekdikeō the ho blood haima of ho his autos servants shed by ek her autos hand cheir.” Then kai again deuteros they cried out legō, “ Hallelujah hallēlouia! · kai The ho smoke kapnos from her autos burning rises anabainō for eis all ho time aiōn ho!” · ho And kai the ho twenty-four eikosi elders presbyteros · ho and kai the ho four tessares living creatures zōon fell down piptō and kai worshiped proskyneō · ho God theos who ho was seated kathēmai on epi the ho throne thronos, saying legō, “ Amen amēn!

And kai the angel said legō to me egō, “ Write graphō, ‘ Blessed makarios are those ho who are invited kaleō to eis the ho marriage gamos supper deipnon · ho of the ho Lamb arnion!’” He also kai said legō to me egō, “ These houtos are eimi the ho true alēthinos words logos of ho God theos.” 10 Then kai I fell piptō down at emprosthen · ho his autos feet pous to worship proskyneō him autos, but kai he said legō to me egō, “ Do horaō not do that!

For gar the ho testimony martyria about Jesus Iēsous is eimi the ho spirit pneuma of ho prophecy prophēteia.”

11 Then kai I saw · ho heaven ouranos opened anoigō, and kai behold idou, a white leukos horse hippos! · kai The ho one riding kathēmai it autos is called kaleō Faithful pistos and kai True alēthinos, and kai with en justice dikaiosynē he judges krinō and kai makes war polemeō. 12 · ho · de His autos eyes ophthalmos are like hōs a flame phlox of fire pyr, and kai on epi · ho his autos head kephalē are many polys diadems diadēma, and he has echō a name onoma written graphō that hos no one oudeis knows oida except ei mē himself autos. 13 · kai He is clothed in periballō a robe himation dipped baptō in blood haima, and kai the ho name onoma by which autos he is called kaleō is the ho Word logos of ho God theos. 14 And kai the ho armies strateuma · ho of en · ho heaven ouranos, arrayed in endyō fine linen byssinos, white leukos and clean katharos, were following akoloutheō him autos on epi white leukos horses hippos. 15 · kai From ek · ho his autos mouth stoma extends ekporeuomai a sharp oxys sword rhomphaia so that hina with en it autos he can strike down patassō the ho nations ethnos. · kai He autos will rule poimainō them autos with en a rod rhabdos of iron sidērous. · kai He autos will tread pateō the ho winepress lēnos ho · ho of the ho furious thumos · ho wrath orgē of ho God theos the ho Almighty pantokratōr. 16 · kai On epi his ho robe himation and kai on epi · ho his autos thigh mēros he has echō a name onoma written graphō, King basileus of kings basileus and kai Lord kyrios of lords kyrios.

17 Then kai I saw an heis angel angelos standing histēmi in en the ho sun hēlios, and kai he called krazō with en a loud megas voice phōnē to all pas the ho birds orneon · ho flying petomai in en midair mesouranēma, “ Come deute, gather together synagō for eis the ho great megas supper deipnon · ho of ho God theos, 18 to hina eat esthiō the flesh sarx of kings basileus, · kai the flesh sarx of captains chiliarchos, · kai the flesh sarx of mighty warriors ischuros, · kai the flesh sarx of horses hippos and kai those ho who ride kathēmai on epi them autos · kai the flesh sarx of all pas, both te free eleutheros and kai slave, and kai small mikros and kai great megas.” 19 Then kai I saw the ho beast thērion and kai the ho kings basileus of the ho earth and kai · ho their autos armies strateuma gathered synagō to make poieō · ho war polemos against meta the ho one who rode kathēmai the ho horse hippos and kai against meta · ho his autos army strateuma. 20 And kai the ho beast thērion was captured piazō, and kai with meta him autos the ho false prophet pseudoprophētēs, who ho in enōpion his autos presence enōpion performed poieō · ho signs sēmeion by en which hos he deceived planaō those ho who had received lambanō the ho mark charagma of the ho beast thērion and kai those ho who worshiped proskyneō · ho his autos image eikōn.

Rejoicing in Heaven

19 After this I heard (A)what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out,

“Hallelujah!
(B)Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,
    for (C)his judgments are true and just;
for he has judged (D)the great prostitute
    who corrupted the earth with her immorality,
and (E)has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”

Once more they cried out,

“Hallelujah!
(F)The smoke from her goes up forever and ever.”

And (G)the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who was seated on the throne, saying, “Amen. Hallelujah!” And from the throne came a voice saying,

(H)“Praise our God,
    all you his servants,
(I)you who fear him,
    small and great.”

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

Then I heard what seemed to be (J)the voice of a great multitude, like (K)the roar of many waters and (L)like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,

“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God
    the Almighty (M)reigns.
Let us rejoice and exult
    and give him the glory,
for (N)the marriage of the Lamb has come,
    and (O)his Bride has made herself ready;
(P)it was granted her to clothe herself
    with fine linen, bright and pure”—

for the fine linen is (Q)the righteous deeds of the saints.

And the angel said[a] to me, “Write this: (R)Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, (S)“These are the true words of God.” 10 Then (T)I fell down at his feet to worship him, (U)but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who hold to (V)the testimony of Jesus. Worship God.” For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

The Rider on a White Horse

11 Then I saw (W)heaven opened, and behold, (X)a white horse! The one sitting on it is called (Y)Faithful and True, and (Z)in righteousness he judges and makes war. 12 (AA)His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are (AB)many diadems, and he has (AC)a name written that no one knows but himself. 13 He is clothed in (AD)a robe dipped in[b] blood, and the name by which he is called is (AE)The Word of God. 14 And the armies of heaven, (AF)arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, (AG)were following him on white horses. 15 (AH)From his mouth comes a sharp sword (AI)with which to strike down the nations, and (AJ)he will rule[c] them with a rod of iron. (AK)He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh (AL)he has a name written, (AM)King of kings and Lord of lords.

17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to (AN)all the birds that fly directly overhead, (AO)“Come, gather for (AP)the great supper of God, 18 (AQ)to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave,[d] both small and great.” 19 And I saw (AR)the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies (AS)gathered to make war against him who was sitting on the horse and against his army. 20 And the beast was captured, and with it (AT)the false prophet (AU)who in its presence[e] had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who (AV)worshiped its image. These two were (AW)thrown alive into the lake of (AX)fire that burns with sulfur. 21 And the rest were slain by the sword (AY)that came from the mouth of him who was sitting on the horse, and (AZ)all the birds were gorged with their flesh.
