Revelation 13:4-8 And they worshipped the dragon who had given the beast authority; and they worshipped the beast, saying, "Who is like this beast? Who is able to fight with it?"

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ And they worshipped the dragon who had given the beast authority; and they worshipped the beast, saying, "Who is like this beast? Who is able to fight with it?" ⁵ And to it was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies. And power was given it to make war forty-two months. ⁶ And it opened its mouth for blasphemy against God, to slander his name and his tabernacle and them, who dwell in heaven. ⁷ And power was given it to make war against the saints and to conquer them; and authority was given it over every tribe and tongue and nation; ⁸ and it is to be worshipped by all the inhabitants of the earth whose names are not written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that was slain.
