Revelation 13:15-17 Now the second beast was given the power to give breath to the statue of the first beast, so that it could both speak and cause all those who refused to worship the statue of the first beast to be killed.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ Now the [second] beast was given [the power] to give breath to the statue of the [first] beast, so that it could both speak and cause all those who refused to worship the statue of the [first] beast to be killed. ¹⁶ And this second beast forced everyone to be branded with a mark on their right hand and on their forehead --- insignificant and important people, rich and poor people, and free people and slaves --- ¹⁷ so that no one would be able to buy or sell things without having the mark, either the name of the [first] beast or the number of his name.
