Revelation 13:1-7

ACV(i) 1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea having ten horns, and seven heads, and ten diadems upon its horns, and upon its heads names of blasphemy. 2 And the beast that I saw was similar to a leopard. And its feet were like a bear, and its mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave to it his power, and his throne, and great authority. 3 And one of its heads was as in death, having been killed. And its deadly wound was healed. And the whole earth marveled behind the beast. 4 And they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast. And they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast, and who is able to war against it? 5 And a mouth was given to it speaking great things and blasphemy. And authority was given it to make war forty-two months. 6 And it opened its mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle, those who dwell in heaven. 7 And it was given it to make war with the sanctified, and to overcome them. And authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to it.
