¹ God who at sundry times, and in divers manners, spake in time past to the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his SON,

¹ Then I saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads, and ten horns; upon his horns were ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. ² and the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority. ³ and I saw one of his heads, as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world went wondring after the beast. ⁴ They worshipped the dragon which had given his power to the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, "who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?" 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. ⁸ all that dwell upon the earth will worship him, whose names are not written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the lamb, that was slain. ⁹ if any man have an ear, let him hear. ¹⁰ he hath leadeth into captivity, shall be led into captivity: he that killeth with the sword, shall perish by the sword. here is the patience and the faith of the saints. ¹¹ Then I beheld another beast coming out of the earth, it had two horns like a lamb, but it spake like a dragon. ¹² he exercised all the power of the first beast by his authority, and caused the earth, and those who dwell therein, to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. ¹³ he perform'd great wonders, so as to make fire come down from heaven on the earth, in the sight of men. ¹⁴ and he deceived the inhabitants of the earth, by the prodigys which he had power to effect by the influence of the beast, by telling the inhabitants of the earth, that he had made an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, but yet did revive. ¹⁵ he had power likewise to animate the image made for the beast, so that the image was made to speak, and as many as would not worship the image were order'd to be killed. ¹⁶ he likewise obliged all, both small and great, rich and poor, the freeman and the slave, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: and order'd, ¹⁷ that no body should buy or sell unless he had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. ¹⁸ here is wisdom. let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred sixty six.

¹ The REVELATION of Jesus Christ, which God gave him, to shew to his servants things which must shortly come to pass; this he signified by his angel whom he dispatch'd to his servant John: ² who publish'd the divine message, and gave his attestation to every thing that he saw concerning Jesus Christ. ³ Happy is he that reads, and attends to the words of this prophecy, and observes the matter therein contain'd: for the time draws nigh. ⁴ JOHN to the seven churches which are in Asia: favour and peace be with you from him WHO IS, WHO WAS, WHO WILL BE; and from the seven spirits who are before his throne; ⁵ and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first-born of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth: unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins by his own blood, ⁶ who hath made us kings and priests to his God and father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. ⁷ See! he is coming on the clouds; and every eye shall see him, even they who pierced him: then all the tribes of the earth will smite their breasts at the sight: even so it will be. ⁸ I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord, who is, and who was, and who will be, the almighty. ⁹ I JOHN, who am your brother, and partake in the tribulation, in the reign, and in the patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony I gave of Jesus Christ. ¹⁰ there I was in an exstacy on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a loud voice, like the sound of a trumpet, ¹¹ saying, "I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, what you shall see, write in a book, and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia; to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea." ¹² and I turned to see from whence the voice came that spake to me. and turning about, I saw seven golden candlesticks; ¹³ and in the midst of the seven candlesticks, one who resembled the son of man, cloathed with a garment down to the foot, and girt below the breast with a girdle of gold. ¹⁴ his head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; his feet were like fine brass, ¹⁵ when glowing in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. ¹⁶ in his right hand he held seven stars: out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and his countenance was as the sun shining in his full glory. ¹⁷ as soon as I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead: but he laid his right hand upon me, and said, "Fear not; I am the first and the last: ¹⁸ I am he that liveth; I was dead; but now you see I am alive for all eternity, amen; and I have the keys of the grave, and of death." ¹⁹ write what you have seen, the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter. ²⁰ the conceal'd meaning of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and of the seven golden candlesticks, is this: the seven stars signify the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which you saw, signify the seven churches.

⁶ and I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, which was like the sound of many waters, or like a volley of thunder, saying, "alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent does reign." ⁷ let us rejoyce, and triumph, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the lamb is come, and his spouse is already adorn'd. ⁸ for she was permitted to be arrayed in fine linnen, clean and white: for the fine linnen represents the virtues of the saints."

¹ Then I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, invested with a cloud, a rainbow was upon his head, his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire. ² he held in his hand a little book open: his right foot was upon the sea, and his left foot on the land. ³ his voice was as loud as the roaring of a lion: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. ⁴ and when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: but I heard a voice saying to me, "seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not." ⁵ Then the angel which I saw standing upon the sea, and upon the land, lifted up his hand to heaven, ⁶ and sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created the heaven and all that is therein, the earth and all that is therein, the sea and all that is therein, "that the time should be no longer defer'd." ⁷ but when the seventh angel should speak, and the trumpet should sound, the mystery of God should be accomplish'd, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. ⁸ And the voice which I heard from heaven, spake to me again, and said, "go, take the little book that is open, from the hand of the angel who stands upon the sea, and upon the land." ⁹ so I went to the angel, and said to him, "give me the little book." and he said to me, "take it, and eat it up; it shall prove bitter in thy bowels, but in thy mouth it shall be as sweet as honey." ¹⁰ immediately having took the little book out of the angel's hand, I swallowed it down: and in my mouth it was as sweet as honey: but as soon as I had swallowed it, it was bitter within me. ¹¹ then he said to me, "thou must prophesy again of many people, nations, provinces, and kings."
