Blessed is he that reads, and those that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things written in it; for the time is at hand.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To him that conquers will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of my God.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches; He that conquers shall not be injured by the second death.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To him that conquers will I give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white token, and on the token a new name engraved, which no one knows but he that receives it.

And I gave her time to change her mind, and she will not change her mind from her fornication.

Behold, I will cast her on a [sick] bed, and those committing adultery with her into great affliction, unless they change their minds from her works.

And her children will I kill with pestilence, and all the churches shall know that I am he that searches the minds and hearts, and I will give you each one according to your works.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and watch, and change your minds. If therefore you do not watch, I will come as a thief, and you shall not know at what hour I will come upon you.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which is to come on all the world, to try those who dwell on the earth.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one shall hear my voice and open the door, I will enter in to him, and feast with him, and he with me.

Let him that has an ear hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and all the moon became as blood,

AND when he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about half an hour.

and they had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like [those] of lions,

And the four angels were unbound, who were prepared for the hour, and day, and month, and year, to kill a third part of men.

And the rest of men, who were not killed with these plagues, did not change their minds [to turn] from the works of their hands, not to worship demons and idols of gold and silver and brass and stone and wood, which cannot see nor hear nor walk,

And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth part of the city fell, and seven thousand men were killed by the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

And a great symbol appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars,

and his tail drew a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them on the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear [a child], that when she had borne he might devour her son.

And she bore a male child, who is about to rule all nations with a rod of iron; and her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.

And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they may nourish her there twelve hundred and sixty days [three years and a half].

And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly to the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished a time and times and half a time [three years and a half], from before the serpent.

And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman water like a river, that he might carry her away.

And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

And the dragon was angry with the woman, and went to make war with the rest of her children who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus.

If any one has an ear let him hear.

If any one [leads] into captivity, he shall go into captivity; if any one kills with the sword, he shall be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and faith of the saints.

Here is wisdom. Let him that has a mind count the number of the beast; for the number is man's. And his number is six hundred and sixty-six.

saying with a loud voice, Fear God and give him glory, for the hour of his judgment has come, and worship him that made heaven and the earth and the sea and fountains of waters.

And another, a second angel, followed, saying, Babylon the great has fallen, who made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

Here is the patience of the saints, who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of his indignant wrath.

with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and the impurities of the fornication of the earth,

and on her forehead the names inscribed, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints and the blood of the martyrs of Jesus, and I wondered when I saw her with great wonder.

And the angel said to me, Why did you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast which carries her, having the seven heads and ten horns.

Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits,

And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, which have not yet received a kingdom, but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

And the ten horns which you saw and the beast shall hate the harlot, and make her desolate and naked, and eat her flesh, and burn her with fire;

because all nations have drank of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth became rich from the greatness of her luxury.

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you may not partake of her sins, and receive of her plagues;

for her sins have reached to heaven and God has remembered her wickedness.

Render to her as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; of the cup that she has mixed, mix to her double;

as much as she glorified herself, and lived luxuriously, so much distress and sorrow give her. For she says in her mind, I sit a queen and am not a widow and I see not sorrow.

Therefore in one day shall her plagues come, death and sorrow and famine, and she shall be burnt with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who has judged her.

And the kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her shall weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning,

standing at a distance on account of fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, the great city, Babylon the mighty city, for in one hour your judgment has come.

And the merchants of the earth shall weep and lament for her, because no one buys their wares any more,

And dealers in these things, and those who became rich by her, shall stand afar off for fear of her distress, weeping and lamenting,

for in one hour are so great riches made a desolation. And every sailing-master and every one who sails to the place, and sailors and all that work on the sea, shall stand afar off,

And they shall cast dust on their heads, and cry weeping and lamenting, saying, Alas, alas, the great city, by which all were enriched who had ships on the sea on account of her costly merchandise, for in one hour is it made desolate.

Rejoice over her, heaven, and you holy angels and apostles and prophets, for God has executed your judgment on her.

and in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all that have been killed on the earth.

for true and righteous are his judgments, for he has judged the great harlot who destroyed the earth with her fornication, and avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.

And again they said, Halleluia, and her smoke ascends forever and ever.

and it was given her to be arrayed in fine linen white and clean;??or fine linen represents the righteous ordinances of the saints.

And I saw the holy city New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
