The Beast and Its Armies Defeated

17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he called out in a loud voice, saying to all the birds flying high overhead, “Come, gather together for the great supper of God, 18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of military commanders, the flesh of the mighty, the flesh of horses and of their riders, and the flesh of everyone, both free and slave, small and great.”(A)

19 Then I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies(B) gathered together to wage war(C) against the rider on the horse and against his army. 20 But the beast was taken prisoner, and along with it the false prophet, who had performed the signs in its presence. He deceived those who accepted the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image with these signs.(D) Both of them were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.(E) 21 The rest were killed with the sword that came from the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds ate their fill of their flesh.

Doom of the Beast and False Prophet

20 And the beast was seized, and with him the (J)false prophet who (K)performed the signs [b](L)in his presence, by which he (M)deceived those who had received the (N)mark of the beast and those who (O)worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the (P)lake of (Q)fire, which burns with [c]brimstone. 21 And the rest were killed with the sword which (R)came from the mouth of Him who (S)sat on the horse, and (T)all the birds were filled with their flesh.
