'Taken' in the Bible

saying:We thank You, Lord God, the Almighty,who is and who was,because You have taken Your great powerand have begun to reign.

But the beast was taken prisoner, and along with him the false prophet, who had performed the signs in his presence. He deceived those who accepted the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image with these signs. Both of them were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.
