Rev 11
1
And there was given me a reed like to a rod: and one said, Rise, and measure the temple
of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2
And the court which is without the temple leave without, and measure it not; for it
has been given to the nations: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty
and two months.
3
And I will give to my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred
and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4
These are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks, standing before the Lord of
the earth.
5
And if any man desires to hurt them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours
their enemies; and if any man shall desire to hurt them, in this manner must he be
killed.
6
These have the power to shut the heaven, that it rain not during the days of their
prophecy: and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite
the earth with every plague, as often as they shall desire.
7
And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of
the abyss shall make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.
8
And their dead bodies [lie] in the street of the great city, which spiritually is
called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
9
And from among the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations do [men] look upon their
dead bodies three days and a half, and suffer not their dead bodies to be laid in
a tomb.
10
And they that dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and make merry; and they shall
send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwell on
the earth.
11
And after the three days and a half the breath of life from God entered into them,
and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them that beheld them.
12
And they heard a great voice from heaven saying to them, Come up here. And they went
up into heaven in the cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
13
And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell;
and there were killed in the earthquake seven thousand persons: and the rest were
frightened, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14
The second Woe is past: behold, the third Woe comes quickly.
15
And the seventh angel sounded; and there followed great voices in heaven, and they
said, The kingdom of the world is become [the kingdom] of our Lord, and of his
Christ: and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16
And the four and twenty elders, who sit before God on their thrones, fell upon their
faces and worshiped God,
17
saying, We give you thanks, O Lord God, the Almighty, who art and who were; because
you have taken your great power, and did reign.
18
And the nations were wroth, and your anger came, and the time of the dead to be judged,
and [the time] to give their reward to your servants the prophets, and to the saints,
and to them that fear your name, the small and the great; and to destroy them that
destroy the earth.
19
And there was opened the temple of God that is in heaven; and there was seen in his
temple the ark of his covenant; and there followed lightnings, and voices, and thunders,
and an earthquake, and great hail.
