Revelation 13:1-7

Riverside(i) 1 THEN I stood on the sand of the sea and I saw rising out of the sea a Beast with ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten diadems and upon his heads were profane names. 2 The Beast that I saw was like a leopard, but his feet were like a bear's feet and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The Dragon gave to him his own power and his throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of his heads, as it were, mortally wounded, but the mortal wound was healed. The whole world followed the Beast in amazement, 4 and they worshiped the Dragon because he had given such power to the Beast, and they worshiped the Beast, saying, "Who is like the Beast, and who can battle with him?" 5 There was given to him a mouth speaking boasts and profanities, and there was given to him power to act for forty-two months. 6 He opened his mouth to insult God, to speak profanely of his name and of his Tent and of those who tent in heaven. 7 It was granted to the Beast to make war with the holy and to conquer them, and power was granted to him over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.
