3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one could learn the song except the one hundred and forty-four thousand who had been purchased from the earth. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been purchased from among men as first fruits to God and to the Lamb. |

8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who has made all the nations drink of the wine of the passion of her immorality." |
9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, |
10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mixed in full strength in the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. |
11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11"And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name." |
12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Here is the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus. |
13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, "Write, 'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on!'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "so that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow with them." |
14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one like a son of man, having a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand. |
15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15And another angel came out of the temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Put in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is ripe." |
16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16Then He who sat on the cloud swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped. |
17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle. |
18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Then another angel, the one who has power over fire, came out from the altar; and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, "Put in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters from the vine of the earth, because her grapes are ripe." |
19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19So the angel swung his sickle to the earth and gathered the clusters from the vine of the earth, and threw them into the great wine press of the wrath of God. |
20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20And the wine press was trodden outside the city, and blood came out from the wine press, up to the horses' bridles, for a distance of two hundred miles. |
