‘Will you not tremble at My presence,
Who have placed the sand as the (B)bound of the sea,

Yet they cannot prevail;
Though they roar, yet they cannot pass over it.
Revelation 17:7-12
New King James Version
The Meaning of the Woman and the Beast
7 But the angel said to me, “Why did you marvel? I will tell you the [a]mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns. 8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and (A)will ascend out of the bottomless pit and (B)go to [b]perdition. And those who (C)dwell on the earth (D)will marvel, (E)whose names are not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and [c]yet is.
9 (F)“Here is the mind which has wisdom: (G)The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits. 10 There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must (H)continue a short time. 11 The (I)beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to [d]perdition.
12 (J)“The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast.
