Revelation 19:17-21
Legacy Standard Bible
17 Then I saw [a]an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to (A)all the birds which fly in (B)midheaven, “(C)Come, assemble for the great supper of God, 18 so that you may (D)eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of [b]commanders and the flesh of strong men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, (E)both free men and slaves, and (F)small and great.”
19 Then I saw (G)the beast and (H)the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war with Him who (I)sits on the horse and with His army.
The Beast and False Prophet Are Seized
20 And the beast was seized, and with him the (J)false prophet who (K)did the signs [c](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 [d]brimstone. 21 And the rest were killed with the sword which (R)came from the mouth of Him who (S)sits on the horse, and (T)all the birds were filled with their flesh.

Revelation 19:17-21
Common English Bible
17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he called out with a loud voice and said to all the birds flying high overhead, “Come and gather for God’s great supper. 18 Come and eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of generals, the flesh of the powerful, and the flesh of horses and their riders. Come and eat the flesh of all, both free and slave, both small and great.” 19 Then I saw that the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies had gathered to make war against the rider on the horse and his army. 20 But the beast was seized, along with the false prophet who had done signs in the beast’s presence. (He had used the signs to deceive people into receiving the beast’s mark and into worshipping the beast’s image.) The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake that burns with sulfur. 21 The rest were killed by the sword that comes from the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds ate their fill of their flesh.
