Revelation 11:1-14

MNT(i) 1 And there was given me a reed like to a rod, and a voice said to me. "Go and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and those who are worshiping therein. 2 But the court which is outside the temple, omit, and do not measure that, for it has been given up to the Gentiles, and they shall tread under foot the Holy City for forty and two months. 3 And I will give power to my two witnesses, and clothed in sackcloth they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days. 4 "These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5 When any one wishes to hurt them, fire comes from their mouth and devours their enemies; and if any man wishes to hurt them, in this manner he must be killed. 6 These have power to shut heaven so that it does not rain in the days of their prophecy; and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7 "And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that is coming up out of the bottomless pit will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies lie in the streets of the great city whose mystical name is 'Sodom' and 'Egypt'—where also their Lord was crucified. 9 For three days and a half men of all peoples, and tribes, and languages, and nations, look upon their dead bodies, and refuse to let their dead bodies be laid in a tomb. 10 "And those who dwell on the earth are rejoicing over them, and making merry; and they will send gifts to one another; because these two prophets were a torment to those who dwell on the earth. 11 And after three days and a half the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell upon them. 12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, "Come up hither," and they went up to heaven on a cloud, while their enemies watched 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 passed; and there is a third woe soon to follow."
