Revelation 14:9-13
English Standard Version
9 And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone (A)worships the beast and its image and receives (B)a mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he also will drink (C)the wine of God's wrath, (D)poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and (E)he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And (F)the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and (G)they have no rest, day or night, these (H)worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name.”
12 (I)Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who (J)keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus.[a]
13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: (K)Blessed are the dead (L)who die in the Lord from now on.” “Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit, (M)“that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!”

Lexham English Bible
9 And another third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself also will drink of the wine of the anger of God that has been mixed full strength in the cup of his wrath, and will be tortured with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torture went up forever and ever[a], and those who worshiped the beast and his image did not have rest day and night, along with anyone who received[b] the mark of his name. 12 Here is the patient endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith in Jesus.
13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write:
‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on!’”
“Yes,” says the Spirit, “in order that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow after them.”
