1 After
these things
I heard something
like a loud
voice of a
great multitude in
heaven, saying, “Hallelujah!
Salvation, power,
and glory belong
to our God;
2 for
his judgments are
true and righteous.
For he has
judged the great
prostitute who
corrupted the
earth with her
sexual immorality,
and he has
avenged the blood
of his servants
at her hand.”
3 A
second said, “Hallelujah!
Her smoke goes up
forever and ever.”
4 The
twenty-four elders
and the four
living creatures
fell down and
worshiped God who
sits on the
throne, saying, “Amen! Hallelujah!”
5 A
voice came from
the throne, saying,
“Give praise to
our God, all
you his servants,
you who fear
him, the small
and the great!”
6 I heard
something like the
voice of a
great multitude,
and like the
voice of many
waters, and like
the voice of
mighty thunders,
saying, “Hallelujah! For
the Lord our
God, the Almighty,
reigns!
7 Let’s
rejoice and
be exceedingly glad,
and let’s give
the glory to
him. For the
wedding of the Lamb
has come, and
his wife has
made herself
ready.”
8 It
was given to
her that she
would array herself in
bright, pure, fine
linen, for the
fine linen is
the righteous acts
of the saints.
9 He
said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are
those who are
invited to the
wedding supper of
the Lamb.’ ” He
said to me, “These
are true words
of God.”
10 I
fell down before
his feet to
worship him. He
said to me, “Look! Don’t do it!
I am a
fellow bondservant with
you and with
your brothers who
hold the testimony
of Jesus. Worship
God, for the
testimony of Jesus
is the Spirit
of Prophecy.”
11 I
saw the
heaven opened, and
behold, a white
horse, and he
who sat on
it is called
Faithful and True.
In righteousness
he judges and makes
war.
12 His
eyes are a
flame of fire,
and on his
head are many
crowns. He has
names written and
a name written
which no one
knows but
he himself.
13 He
is clothed in
a garment
sprinkled with blood.
His name is
called “The Word
of God.”
14 The
armies which are
in heaven, clothed
in white, pure,
fine linen, followed
him on white
horses.
15 Out
of his mouth
proceeds a sharp,
double-edged sword that
with it he
should strike the
nations. He will
rule them with
an iron rod.
He treads the
wine press of
the fierceness of
the wrath of
God, the Almighty.
16 He
has on his
garment and on
his thigh a
name written, “KING
OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS.”
17 I
saw an angel
standing in the
sun. He cried
with a loud
voice, saying to
all the birds
that fly in
the sky, “Come! Be
gathered together
to the great
supper of God,
18 that
you may eat
the flesh of
kings, the flesh
of captains, the
flesh of mighty
men, and the
flesh of horses
and of those
who sit on
them, and the
flesh of all
men, both free
and slave, small
and great.”
19 I
saw the beast,
the kings of
the earth, and
their armies,
gathered together
to make war
against him who
sat on the
horse and against
his army.
20 The
beast was taken,
and with him
the false prophet
who worked the
signs in his
sight, with which
he deceived those
who had received
the mark of
the beast and
those who
worshiped his
image. These two
were thrown alive
into the lake
of fire that
burns with sulfur.
21 The
rest were killed
with the sword
of him who
sat on the
horse, the sword
which came out
of his mouth.
So all the
birds were filled
with their flesh.
