Revelation 19
1 After this, I heard what seemed to be a great shout from a vast throng in Heaven, crying — ‘Hallelujah! To our God belong Salvation, and Glory, and Power,
And after these things I heard a loud voice as of a great multitude in heaven, saying, Alleluia; salvation, and glory, and honor, and power to the Lord our God: for true and righteous are his judgements;
2 for true and righteous are his judgments. For he has passed judgment upon the Great Harlot who was corrupting the earth by her licentiousness, and he has taken vengeance upon her for the blood of his servants.’
He hath judged the great whore, who corrupted the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand:
3 Again they cried — ‘Hallelujah!’ And the smoke from her ruins rises for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)
(and again they said, Alleluia: ) and her smoke ascendeth for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)
4 Then the twenty-four Councillors and the Four Creatures prostrated themselves and worshiped God who was seated upon the throne, crying — ‘Amen, Hallelujah!’;
And the four and twenty elders, and the four animals fell down and worshipped God that sat upon the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
5 and from the throne there came a voice which said — ‘Praise our God all you who serve him, You who reverence him, both high and low.’
And a voice came out from the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear Him, both small and great.
6 Then I heard ‘what seemed to be the shout of a vast throng, like the sound of many waters,’ and like the sound of loud peals of thunder, crying — ‘Hallelujah! For the Lord is King, our God, the Almighty.
And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the noise of many waters, and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying, Alleluia, for the Lord God the almighty reigneth.
7 Let us rejoice and exalt; and we will pay him honour, for the hour for the Marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready.
Let us rejoice and exult and give glory to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 And to her it has been granted to robe herself in fine linen, white and pure, for that linen is the good deeds of the People of Christ.’
And it was given to her, that she should be arrayed in fine linen clean and bright: for the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints.
9 Then a voice said to me ‘Write — “Blessed are those who have been summoned to the marriage feast of the Lamb.”’ And the voice said — ‘These words of God are true.’
And he said unto me, Write, Happy they who are invited to the marriage-supper of the Lamb. And he said unto me, These are the true words of God.
10 I prostrated myself at the feet of him who spoke to worship him, but he said to me — ‘Forbear; I am your fellow-servant, and the fellow-servant of your Brothers who bear their testimony to Jesus. Worship God. For to bear testimony to Jesus needs the inspiration of the Prophets.’
And I fell at his feet to worship him: and he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow-servant, and a fellow-servant of thy brethren, that hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God. For the Spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus.
11 Then I saw that Heaven lay open. There appears a white horse; its rider is called ‘Faithful’ and ‘True’; righteously does he judge and make war.
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and He that sat upon it is called faithful and true, and in righteousness doth He judge and make war.
12 His eyes are flaming fires; on his head there are many diadems, and he bears a name, written, which no one knows but himself;
His eyes are as a flame of fire, and many crowns on his head: and He hath a name written, which none knoweth but Himself.
13 he has been clothed in a garment sprinkled with blood; and the name by which he is called is ‘The Word of God.’
And He was clothed with a vesture dipt in blood: and his name is called, "The Word of God."
14 The armies of Heaven followed him, mounted on white horses and clothed in fine linen, white and pure.
And the armies in heaven followed Him on white horses, clothed in fine linen white and clean.
15 From his mouth comes a sharp sword, with which ‘to smite the nations; and he will rule them with an iron rod.’ He ‘treads the grapes in the press’ of the maddening wine of the Wrath of Almighty God;
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that He may smite the nations therewith: and He shall rule them with a rod of iron: and He treadeth the wine-press of the indignation and wrath of God almighty.
16 and on his robe and on his thigh he has this name written — ‘KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.’
And He hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, "King of kings, and Lord of lords."
17 Then I saw an angel standing on the sun. He cried in a loud voice to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven — ‘Gather and come to the great feast of God,
And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together to the banquet of the great God;
18 to eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of commanders, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all freemen and slaves, and of high and low.’
that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and of those that sit upon them, and the flesh of all, both freemen and slaves, both small and great.
19 Then I saw the Beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, gathered together to fight with him who sat on the horse and with his army.
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together to make war with him that sitteth upon the horse, and against his army.
20 The Beast was captured, and with him was taken the false Prophet, who performed the marvels before the eyes of the Beast, with which he deceived those who had received the brand of the Beast and those who worshiped his image. Alive, they were thrown, both of them, into the fiery lake ‘of burning sulphur.’ (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
21 The rest were killed by the sword which came out of the mouth of him who rode upon the horse; and all the birds fed upon their flesh.
And the rest were slain with the sword of Him that sitteth upon the horse, the sword that cometh out of his mouth: and all the fowls of heaven were satiated with their flesh.
