Revelation 11:1-12
New American Standard Bible
The Two Witnesses
11 Then there was given to me a [a](A)measuring rod like a staff; [b]and (B)someone said, “Get up and measure the [c]temple of God and the altar, and those who worship in it. 2 [d]Leave out the (C)courtyard which is outside the [e]temple and do not measure it, because (D)it has been given to the nations; and they will (E)trample (F)the holy city for (G)forty-two months. 3 And I will grant authority to my two (H)witnesses, and they will prophesy for (I)1,260 days, clothed in (J)sackcloth.” 4 These are the (K)two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth. 5 And if anyone wants to harm them, (L)fire flows out of their mouth and devours their enemies; and so if anyone wants to harm them, (M)he must be killed in this way. 6 These have the power to (N)shut up the sky, so that rain will not fall during (O)the days of their prophesying; and they have power over the waters to (P)turn them into blood, and (Q)to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
7 When they have finished their testimony, (R)the beast that comes up out of the (S)abyss will (T)make war with them, and overcome them and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies will lie on the street of the (U)great city which [f]spiritually is called (V)Sodom and (W)Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. 9 Those from (X)the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations will look at their dead [g]bodies for three and a half days, and [h](Y)will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb. 10 And (Z)those who live on the earth will rejoice over them and celebrate; and they will (AA)send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented (AB)those who live on the earth.
11 And after the three and a half days, (AC)the breath of life from God came into them, and they stood on their feet; and great fear fell upon those who were watching them. 12 And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “(AD)Come up here.” And they (AE)went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies watched them.

11 Then kai a measuring rod kalamos like homoios a staff rhabdos was given didōmi to me egō; and someone said legō, “ Rise egeirō and kai measure metreō the ho temple naos of ho God theos and kai the ho altar thusiastērion and kai those ho who worship proskyneō there en autos, 2 but kai exclude ekballō the ho court aulē that ho is outside exōthen the ho temple naos; · kai do metreō not mē measure metreō it autos because hoti it has been given didōmi to the ho nations ethnos. And kai they will trample pateō the ho holy hagios city polis · ho for forty-two tesserakonta months mēn. · kai 3 And kai I will give power didōmi to ho my egō two dyo witnesses martys, and kai they will prophesy prophēteuō for one thousand chilioi two hundred diakosioi and sixty hexēkonta days hēmera, clothed periballō in sackcloth sakkos.” 4 ( These houtos are eimi the ho two dyo olive trees elaia and kai the ho two dyo lampstands lychnia that ho stand histēmi before enōpion the ho Lord kyrios of the ho earth gē.) 5 And kai if ei anyone tis tries thelō to harm adikeō them autos, fire pyr comes ekporeuomai out of ek · ho their autos mouth stoma and kai devours katesthiō · ho their autos enemies echthros.
