Revelation 14

1 Then I looked and saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads.

2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of many waters and the loud rumbling of thunder. And the sound I heard was like harpists strumming their harps.

3 And 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 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.

4 These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they are virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever He goes. They have been redeemed by Jesus from among men as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.

5 And no lie was found in their mouths, for they are blameless.

6 Then I saw an angel flying overhead, with the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation and tribe and tongue and people.

7 And he said in a loud voice, “Fear the Lord and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come. Worship the One who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and the springs of waters.”

8 Then a second angel followed, saying, “Fallen is Babylon the great, who has made all the nations drink the wine of the passion of her immorality.”

9 And a third angel followed them, calling out in a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on his forehead or on his hand,

10 he too will drink the wine of God’s anger, poured undiluted into the cup of His wrath. And he will be tormented in fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb.

11 And the smoke of their torment rises forever and ever. Day and night there is no rest for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”

12 Here is a call for the perseverance of the saints, who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

13 And I heard a voice from heaven telling me to write, “Blessed are the dead—those who die in the Lord from this moment on.” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labors, and their deeds will follow them.”

14 And I looked and saw a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was One like the Son of Man, with a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand.

15 Then another angel came out of the temple, crying out in a loud voice to the One seated on the cloud, “Swing Your sickle and reap, because the time has come to harvest, for the crop of the earth is ripe.”

16 So the One seated on the cloud swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.

17 Then another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.

18 Still another angel, with authority over the fire, came from the altar and called out with a loud cry to the angel with the sharp sickle, “Swing your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the vine of the earth, because its grapes are ripe.”

19 So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered the grapes of the earth, and he threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath.

20 And the winepress was trodden outside the city, and the blood that flowed from it rose as high as the bridles of the horses for a distance of 1,600 stadia.

1 ¶ And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty [and] four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.

2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:

3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.

4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, [being] the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.

5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

6 ¶ And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive [his] mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

12 Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

13 ¶ And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed [are] the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud [one] sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.

16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.

18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.

19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast [it] into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand [and] six hundred furlongs.

1 And I saw a Lamb standing on mount Zion, and with him an hundred and forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.

2 And I heard a voice from heaven as of a great water, and as the voice of a great thunder: and the voice that I heard was as of harpers playing upon their harps.

3 And they sang as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and before the elders: and no man could learn the song, save the hundred and forty and four thousand that were bought of the earth.

4 These are they which are not defiled with women: for they are virgins, and follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These are bought of men for the firstfruits of God and of the Lamb.

5 And in their mouth is no falsehood found: for they are blameless before the throne of God.

6 And I saw an angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that sit and dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people;

7 And said with a loud voice: Fear God and give Him glory, for the time of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth and the sea and the fountains of waters].

8 And another angel followed, saying, She is fallen, she is fallen, Babylon the great city: for she hath made all nations drink of the wine of her fornication.

9 And the third angel followed him, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast, and his image, and receive the mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 He shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out and made pure in the cup of his wrath: and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone before the holy angels, and before the Lamb.

11 And the smoke of their torment shall ascend for ever and ever: and they shall have no rest day nor night, who have worshipped the beast and his image, and have received the mark of his name.

12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the LORD from henceforth. Yea, the Spirit saith, that they may rest from their labour: for their works follow them.

14 And I saw, and, behold, a white cloud, and sitting upon the cloud a man like unto the Son of man, having a crown of gold upon his head, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice unto him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come to reap: for the harvest of the earth is become dry.

16 And he that sat on the cloud smote the earth with his sickle, and the earth was reaped.

17 And another angel went out of the temple which is in heaven, having a sharp sickle.

18 And another angel came out of the altar, having power over fire, and cried with a loud cry unto him that had the sharp hoof, saying, Smite with thy sharp hoof, and cut the grapes of the earth: for their berries are ripe.

19 And the angel smote the earth with his hoof, and cut down the branches of the earth, and cast them into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

20 And the winepress was pressed without the city: and the blood went out of the winepress unto the bridles of the horses a thousand six hundred furlongs.
