The Rider on a White Horse

11Then I saw heaven opened, iand there was a white horse. Its rider is called Faithful and True, jand He judges and makes war in righteousness. k12His eyes were like a fiery flame, land many crowns mwere on His head. nHe had a name written that no one knows except Himself. o13He wore a robe stained with blood, pqand His name is the Word of God. r14The armies that were in heaven followed Him on white horses, wearing pure white linen. 15A sharp ssword tcame from His mouth, so that He might strike the nations with it. uHe will shepherd vthem with an iron scepter. wHe will also trample the winepress of the fierce anger of God, xthe Almighty. 16And He has a name written on His robe and on His thigh:

KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. y

The Beast and His Armies Defeated

17Then I saw an angel standing on zthe sun, and he cried out in a loud voice, saying to all the birds flying high overhead, “Come, gather together for the great supper of God, 18so that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of commanders, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of their riders, and the flesh of everyone, both free and slave, small and great.” a

19Then I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies bgathered together to wage war cagainst the rider on the horse and against His army. 20But the beast was taken prisoner, and along with him the false prophet, who had performed the signs in his presence. He deceived those who accepted the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image with these signs. dBoth of them were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. e21The rest were killed with the sword that came from the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
