Revelation 13:1-10

New Matthew Bible

A beast with seven heads and ten horns rises out of the sea. Another beast with two horns comes out of the earth.

13 And I saw a beast rise out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his head the name of blasphemy. ² And the beast that I saw was like a cat of the mountain, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his seat, and great authority.

³ And I saw one of his heads, as it were wounded to death, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world wondered at the beast. ⁴ And they worshipped the dragon that gave power to the beast, and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast? Who is able to war with him?

⁵ And there was given to him a mouth that spoke great things, and blasphemies, and power was given to him to continue 42 months. ⁶ And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. ⁷ And it was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. And power was given him over every kindred, tongue, and nation. ⁸ And all who dwell upon the earth worshipped him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb, who was killed from the beginning of the world. ⁹ If anyone has an ear, let him hear. ¹⁰ He who leads into captivity will go into captivity; he who kills with a sword must be killed with a sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
