Then I saw a beast with ten horns and seven heads rising out of the sea. (There were) ten royal crowns on its - horns and blasphemous names on its - heads.
- The beast - I saw was like a leopard , (with) - the feet of a bear and - the mouth of - a lion. And the dragon gave (the beast) his - power and his - throne and great authority.
- One of the heads of (the beast) appeared to be mortally wounded ... .... (But) - the mortal - wound was healed , and the whole world marveled (and) followed the beast.
- They worshiped the dragon who had given - authority to the beast , and they worshiped the beast , saying , “ Who (is) like the beast , and who can wage war against it ? ”
- (The beast) was given a mouth to speak arrogant and blasphemous (words) , and authority to act - - for 42 ... ... months.
And (the beast) opened its - mouth to (speak) blasphemies against - God (and) to slander His - name and His - tabernacle — those who dwell in - heaven.
Then (the beast) was permitted vvv to wage war against the saints and to conquer them , and it was given authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.
And all who dwell on the earth will worship (the beast) — (all) whose - names vvv have not been written - from (the) foundation of (the) world in the Book - of Life belonging to the Lamb who was slain.
vvv He who has an ear , let him hear :
“ If anyone (is destined for) captivity , into captivity he will go ; if anyone is to die by (the) sword , by (the) sword he must be killed.” Here is (a call for) the perseverance and - faith of the saints.
Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. - (This beast) had two horns like a lamb , (but) spoke like a dragon.
And (this beast) exercised all the authority of the first beast - - and caused the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the - first beast , whose ... - mortal - wound had been healed.
And (the second beast) performed great signs to cause even fire from - heaven to come down to - earth in the presence - of the people.
- Because of the signs - it was given to perform on behalf of the (first) beast , it deceived those who dwell on the earth , telling vvv vvv vvv vvv (them) to make an image to the beast that vvv vvv had been wounded by the sword and yet had lived.
- (The second beast) was permitted ... to give breath to the image of the (first) beast , so that the image - - vvv could speak and cause - all who vvv vvv refused to worship vvv vvv vvv (it) to be killed.
And (the second beast) required all (people) small and - great , - - rich and - poor , - - free and - slave , to receive - a Mark - on their - right - hand or on their - forehead ,
- so that no one could buy or sell unless ... he had the Mark - — the name of the beast or the number of its - name.
Here is (a call for) - wisdom : {Let} the (one who) has insight calculate the number of the beast , for it is (the) number of a man , and (that) - number (is) 666 {} ... ....
