Rev 11
1
Then a reed was given to me like a rod, saying, "Rise and measure the temple of God,
the altar, and those who worship in it.
2
But leave out the outer court of the temple, and do not measure it, because it has
been given to the Gentiles. And they shall trample the holy city for forty-two months.
3
And I will give [power] to My two witnesses, and they shall prophesy one thousand
two hundred and sixty days, having been clothed in sackcloth."
4
These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands which [are] standing before the
Lord of the earth.
5
And if anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from their mouth and devours their
enemies. And if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this way.
6
These [men ]have power to shut heaven, so that no rain falls [during] the days of
their prophecy; and they have authority over the waters to turn them into blood, and
to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they wish.
7
And when they finish their testimony, the Beast who ascends out of the bottomless
pit will make war with them, and will overcome them, and will kill them.
8
And their corpse [will lie ]on the street of the great city which spiritually is called
Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
9
Then some of the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations saw their corpse three-and-a-half
days, and they will not allow their corpses to be put into a tomb.
10
And those who dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and make merry, and give gifts
to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
11
Now after the three-and-a-half days, the breath of life from God entered into them,
and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who were watching them.
12
And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here."And they went
up to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies watched them.
13
In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell, and seven
thousand men were killed. And the rest became fearful and gave glory to the God of
heaven.
14
The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe is coming quickly.
15
Then the seventh angel sounded [his] trumpet, and there were great voices in heaven,
saying, "The kingdom of this world has become [the kingdom] of our Lord and of His
Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!"
16
And the twenty-four elders, those before the throne of God who sit on their thrones,
fell on their faces and worshipped God,
17
saying: "We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty, The One who is and[ ]who was, because
You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign.
18
The nations were angry, and Your wrath has come, and the time of the dead, that they
should be judged, and that You should reward Your servants the prophets and the saints,
and to those that fear Your name, to the small and to the great, and to destroy those
who destroy the earth."
19
Then the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of the covenant of the Lord
appeared in His temple. And there were lightnings and voices and thunders, and great
hail.
