Revelation 13:5-7

Mace(i) 5 there was given to him a mouth speaking great things, and blasphemy; and power was given to him for two and forty months. 6 and he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and those that dwell in heaven, 7 he was permitted to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all the tribes, and provinces, and nations.
