The Sixth Bowl

12 The sixth[a] poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates,(A) and its water was dried up(B) to prepare the way for the kings from the east. 13 Then I saw three unclean spirits like frogs(C) coming from the dragon’s mouth,(D) from the beast’s mouth,(E) and from the mouth of the false prophet.(F) 14 For they are demonic spirits performing signs,(G) who travel to the kings of the whole world to assemble them(H) for the battle on the great day of God, the Almighty.(I) 15 “Look, I am coming like a thief. Blessed(J) is the one who is alert and remains clothed[b](K) so that he may not go around naked and people see his shame.”(L) 16 So they assembled the kings at the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.[c](M)

Har-Magedon (Armageddon)

13 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the (E)dragon, and out of the mouth of the (F)beast, and out of the mouth of the (G)false prophet, three (H)unclean spirits like (I)frogs; 14 for they are (J)spirits of demons, (K)performing signs, which go out to the kings of the (L)entire [b]world, to (M)gather them together for the war of the (N)great day of God, the Almighty. 15 (“Behold, (O)I am coming like a thief. (P)Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, (Q)so that he will not walk about naked and people will not see his shame.”) 16 And they (R)gathered them together to the place which (S)in Hebrew is called (T)Har-Magedon.
