The Rider on a White Horse

11 Then I saw (A)heaven opened, and behold, a (B)white horse, and He who sits on it is called (C)Faithful and True, and in (D)righteousness He judges and wages war. 12 His (E)eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many (F)diadems; having a (G)name written on Him which no one knows except Himself, 13 and being clothed with a (H)garment dipped in blood, His name is also called (I)The Word of God. 14 And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in (J)fine linen, (K)white and clean, were following Him on white horses. 15 (L)And from His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may (M)strike down the nations, and He will [a](N)rule them with a rod of iron; and (O)He treads the wine press of the wrath of the rage of God, the Almighty. 16 And He has on His garment and on His thigh (P)a name written, “(Q)KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

Christ defeats the beast

11 Then I saw heaven opened, and there was a white horse. Its rider was called Faithful and True, and he judges and makes war justly. 12 His eyes were like a fiery flame, and on his head were many royal crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. 13 He wore a robe dyed[a] with blood, and his name was called the Word of God. 14 Heaven’s armies, wearing fine linen that was white and pure, were following him on white horses. 15 From his mouth comes a sharp sword that he will use to strike down the nations. He is the one who will rule them with an iron rod. And he is the one who will trample the winepress of the Almighty God’s passionate anger. 16 He has a name written on his robe and on his thigh: King of kings and Lord of lords.
