And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and I saw out of the sea a beast coming up, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon its horns ten diadems, and upon its heads a name of evil speaking,

And there was given to it a mouth speaking great things, and evil-speakings, and there was given to it authority to make war forty-two months,
