Revelation 17:1
|
|
And there came one of the seven angels that
had the seven bowls, and spake with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee
the judgment of the great harlot that sitteth upon many waters; |
|
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:2

with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication,
and they that dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her fornication.
|
| |
|
|
|
Revelation 17:3

And he carried me away in the Spirit into a
wilderness: and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet-colored beast, full of names
of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. |
| |
|
|
|
Revelation 17:4
|
|
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet,
and decked with gold and precious stone and pearls, having in her hand a golden
cup full of abominations, even the unclean things of her fornication, |
| |
|
|
|
Revelation 17:5

and upon her forehead a name written, MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. |
| |
|
|
|

the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I
wondered with a great wonder. |
| |
|
|
|

|
|
And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst
thou wonder? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that
carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and the ten horns. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:8
|
|
The beast that thou sawest was, and is not;
and is about to come up out of the abyss, and to go into perdition. And they that
dwell on the earth shall wonder, they whose name hath not been written in the
book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast, how
that he was, and is not, and shall come. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:9
|
|
Here is the mind that hath wisdom. The seven
heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth: |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:10
|
|
and they are seven kings; the five are fallen,
the one is, the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a
little while. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:11
|
|
And the beast that was, and is not, is himself
also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goeth into perdition. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:12
|
|
And the ten horns that thou sawest are ten kings,
who have received no kingdom as yet; but they receive authority as kings, with
the beast, for one hour. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:13
|
|
These have one mind, and they give their power
and authority unto the beast. |
|
|
|

shall overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings; and they also
shall overcome that are with him, called and chosen and faithful. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:15

And he saith unto me, The waters which thou
sawest, where the harlot sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and
tongues. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:16
|
|
And the ten horns which thou sawest, and the
beast, these shall hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate and naked, and
shall eat her flesh, and shall burn her utterly with fire. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:17
|
|
For God did put in their hearts to do his mind,
and to come to one mind, and to give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words
of God should be accomplished. |
|
|
|
|
Revelation 17:18
|
|
And the woman whom thou sawest is the great
city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. |
