RE-13:1  And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast

rise up out of

the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns

ten crowns, and

upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

RE-13:2  And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and

his feet were

as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion:

and the dragon

gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

RE-13:3  And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death;

and his deadly

wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

RE-13:4  And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto

the beast: and

they worshipped the beast, saying, Who [is] like unto the beast?

who is able to

make war with him?

RE-13:5  And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great

things and

blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty

[and] two months.

RE-13:6  And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to

blaspheme his

name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

RE-13:7  And it was given unto him to make war with the saints,

and to overcome

them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues,

and nations.

RE-13:8  And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him,

whose names are

not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the

foundation of the

world.

RE-13:9  If any man have an ear, let him hear.

RE-13:10  He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity:

 he that

killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is

the patience and

the faith of the saints.

RE-13:11  And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth;

and he had two

horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

RE-13:12  And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast

before him, and

causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the

first beast,

whose deadly wound was healed.

RE-13:13  And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire

come down from

heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

RE-13:14  And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by [the

means of] those

miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast;

saying to them

that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the

beast, which had

the wound by a sword, and did live.

RE-13:15  And he had power to give life unto the image of the

beast, that the

image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as

would not

worship the image of the beast should be killed.

RE-13:16  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and

poor, free and

bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their

foreheads:

RE-13:17  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had

the mark, or the

name of the beast, or the number of his name.

RE-13:18  Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count

the number of

the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is]

Six hundred

threescore [and] six.
