Revelation 19:11–21

The Rider on a White Horse

¹¹Then I saw ^jheaven opened, and behold, ^ka white horse! The one sitting on it is called ^lFaithful and True, and ^min righteousness he judges and makes war. ¹²ⁿHis eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are ^omany diadems, and he has ^pa name written that no one knows but himself. ¹³He is clothed in ^qa robe dipped in⁴ blood, and the name by which he is called is ^rThe Word of God. ¹⁴And the armies of heaven, ^sarrayed in fine linen, white and pure, ^twere following him on white horses. ^15uFrom his mouth comes a sharp sword ^vwith which to strike down the nations, and ^whe will rule³ them with a rod of iron. ^xHe will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. ¹⁶On his robe and on his thigh ^yhe has a name written, ^zKing of kings and Lord of lords.

¹⁷Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to ^aall the birds that fly directly overhead, ^b“Come, gather for ^cthe great supper of God, ^18dto eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave,⁴ both small and great.” ¹⁹And I saw ^ethe beast and the kings of the earth with their armies ^fgathered to make war against him who was sitting on the horse and against his army. ²⁰And the beast was captured, and with it ^gthe false prophet ^hwho in its presence⁵ had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who ⁱworshiped its image. These two were ^jthrown alive into the lake of ^kfire that burns with sulfur. ²¹And the rest were slain by the sword ^lthat came from the mouth of him who was sitting on the horse, and ^mall the birds were gorged with their flesh.
