Then I looked, and behold, ^athe Lamb was standing on ^bMount Zion, and with Him ^c144,000 who had ^dHis name and the ^ename of His Father written ^fon their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like ^athe sound of many waters and like the ^bsound of loud thunder, and the voice which I heard was like the sound of ^charpists playing on their harps. 3 And they *sang ^1aa new song before the throne and before the ^bfour living creatures and the ^celders; and ^dno one was able to learn the song except the ^e144,000 who had been ^fpurchased from the earth. 4 ^aThese are the ones who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are celibate. These are the ones who ^bfollow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been ^cpurchased from mankind ^das first fruits to God and to the Lamb. 5 And ^ano lie was found in their mouths; they are ^bblameless.

6 And I saw another angel flying in ^amidheaven with ^ban eternal gospel to preach to ^cthose who ¹live on the earth, and to ^devery nation, tribe, language, and people; 7 and he said with a loud voice, “^aFear God and ^bgive Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who ^cmade the heaven and the earth, and sea and ^dsprings of waters.”

8 And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, “^1aFallen, fallen is ^bBabylon the great, she who has ^cmade all the nations drink of the ^dwine of the ²passion of her sexual immorality.”

9 Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone ^aworships the beast and his ^bimage, and receives a ^cmark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he also will drink of the ^awine of the wrath of God, which is mixed ¹in full strength ^bin the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with ^cfire and ²brimstone in the presence of the ^dholy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the ^asmoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; ^bthey have no rest day and night, those who ^cworship the beast and his ^dimage, and ¹whoever receives the ^emark of his name.” 12 Here is ^athe ¹perseverance of the ²saints who ^bkeep the commandments of God and ^3ctheir faith in Jesus.

13 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Write: ‘^aBlessed are the dead who ^bdie in the Lord from now on!’” “Yes,” ^csays the Spirit, “so that they may ^drest from their labors, for their ^edeeds follow with them.”

14 Then I looked, and behold, a ^awhite cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one ^blike ¹a son of man, with a golden ^ccrown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand. 15 And another angel ^acame out of the ¹temple, calling out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “^2bPut in Your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the ^charvest of the earth ³is ripe.” 16 Then He who sat on the cloud ¹swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.

17 And another angel ^acame out of the ¹temple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle. 18 Then another angel, ^athe one who has power over fire, came out from ^bthe altar; and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “^1cPut in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters ²from the vine of the earth, ^dbecause her grapes are ripe.” 19 So the angel ¹swung his sickle to the earth and gathered the clusters from the vine of the earth, and threw them into ^athe great wine press of the wrath of God. 20 And ^athe wine press was trampled ^boutside the city, and ^cblood came out from the wine press, up to the horses’ bridles, ¹for a distance of ²1,600 stadia.

Then I looked, and behold, ^athe Lamb was standing on ^bMount Zion, and with Him ^cone hundred and forty-four thousand, having ^dHis name and the ^ename of His Father written ^fon their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like ^athe sound of many waters and like the ^bsound of loud thunder, and the voice which I heard was like the sound of ^charpists playing on their harps. 3 And they *¹sang ^aa new song before the throne and before the ^bfour living creatures and the ^celders; and ^dno one could learn the song except the ^eone hundred and forty-four thousand who had been ^fpurchased from the earth. 4 ^aThese are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they ¹have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who ^bfollow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been ^cpurchased from among men ^das first fruits to God and to the Lamb. 5 And ^ano lie was found in their mouth; they are ^bblameless.

6 And I saw another angel flying in ^amidheaven, having ^ban eternal gospel to preach to ^cthose who ¹live on the earth, and to ^devery nation and tribe and tongue and people; 7 and he said with a loud voice, “^aFear God, and ^bgive Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who ^cmade the heaven and the earth and sea and ^dsprings of waters.”

8 And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, “^1aFallen, fallen is ^bBabylon the great, she who has ^cmade all the nations drink of the ^dwine of the ²passion of her immorality.”
