Then I saw a ^abeast coming up out of the sea, having ^bten horns and ^cseven heads, and on his horns were ^dten diadems, and on his heads were ^eblasphemous names.

²And the beast which I saw was ^alike a leopard, and his feet were like those of ^ba bear, and his mouth like the mouth of ^ca lion. And the ^ddragon gave him his power and his ^ethrone and great authority.

³And I saw one of his heads as if it had been ¹slain fatally, and his ^afatal wound was healed. And the whole earth ^bmarveled and followed after the beast.

⁴And they worshiped the ^adragon because he ^bgave his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “^cWho is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?”

⁵And there was given to him a mouth ^aspeaking ¹great boasts and blasphemies, and authority to act for ^bforty-two months was given to him.

⁶And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, ^athose who ¹dwell in heaven.
