The Beast from the Earth

¹¹ Then I saw ^[a]another beast rising up out of the earth; he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke like a dragon.^(A)

³ And the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness; and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was ^[a]entirely covered with blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.^(A)

⁷ He was also ^[a]permitted to wage war against the saints (God’s people) and to overcome them, and authority and power over every tribe and people and language and nation.^(A)
