The Rider on a White Horse

11 Then I saw heaven opened,(A) and there was a white horse. Its rider is called Faithful and True,(B) and with justice he judges and makes war.(C) 12 His eyes were like a fiery flame,(D) and many crowns[a] were on his head.(E) He had a name written that no one knows except himself.(F) 13 He wore a robe dipped in blood,(G) and his name is called the Word of God.(H) 14 The armies that were in heaven followed him on white horses, wearing pure white linen. 15 A sharp[b] sword(I) came from his mouth, so that he might strike the nations with it.(J) He will rule[c] them with an iron rod.(K) He will also trample the winepress of the fierce anger of God,(L) the Almighty. 16 And he has a name written on his robe and on his thigh: King of Kings and Lord of Lords.(M)
