Revelation 19

CHAPTER 19

Hallelujah!

¹After these things I heard something like a ^aloud voice of a great crowd in heaven, saying,

“^bHallelujah! ^cSalvation and ^dglory and power belong to our God;

^2abecause His ^bjudgments are ^ctrue and righteous; for He has judged the ^dgreat harlot who was corrupting the earth with her sexual immorality, and He has ^eavenged the blood of His slaves shed by her hand.”

³And a second time they said, “^aHallelujah! ^bHer smoke rises up forever and ever.”

⁴And the ^atwenty-four elders and the ^bfour living creatures ^cfell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne saying, “^dAmen. ^eHallelujah!”

⁵And a voice came from the throne, saying,

“^aGive praise to our God, all you His slaves, ^byou who fear Him, the small and the great.”

⁶Then I heard something like ^athe voice of a great crowd and like ^bthe sound of many waters and like the ^csound of mighty peals of thunder, saying,

“^dHallelujah! For the ^eLord our God, the Almighty, reigns.

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

⁷“Let us rejoice and be glad and ^agive the glory to Him, for ^bthe marriage of the Lamb has come and His ^1cbride has made herself ready.”

⁸And it was given to her to clothe herself in ^afine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the ^brighteous acts of the saints.

⁹Then ^ahe ^*said to me, “^bWrite, ‘^cBlessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’” And he ^*said to me, “^dThese are true words of God.”

¹⁰Then ^aI fell at his feet to worship him. ^bBut he ^*said to me, “¹Do not do that! I am a ^cfellow slave with you and your brothers who ^dhave the witness of Jesus. Worship God! For the witness of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

The Rider on a White Horse

¹¹Then I saw ^aheaven opened, and behold, a ^bwhite horse, and He who sits on it is called ^cFaithful and True, and in ^drighteousness He judges and wages war.

¹²His ^aeyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many ^bdiadems; having a ^cname written on Him which no one knows except Himself,

¹³and being clothed with a ^agarment dipped in blood, His name is also called ^bThe Word of God.

¹⁴And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in ^afine linen, ^bwhite and clean, were following Him on white horses.

^15aAnd from His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may ^bstrike down the nations, and He will ^1crule them with a rod of iron; and ^dHe treads the wine press of the wrath of the rage of God, the Almighty.

¹⁶And He has on His garment and on His thigh ^aa name written, “^bKING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

¹⁷Then I saw ¹an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to ^aall the birds which fly in ^bmidheaven, “^cCome, assemble for the great supper of God,

¹⁸so that you may ^aeat the flesh of kings and the flesh of ¹commanders and the flesh of strong men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, ^bboth free men and slaves, and ^csmall and great.”

¹⁹Then I saw ^athe beast and ^bthe kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war with Him who ^csits on the horse and with His army.

The Beast and False Prophet Are Seized

²⁰And the beast was seized, and with him the ^afalse prophet who ^bdid the signs ^1cin his presence, by which he ^ddeceived those who had received the ^emark of the beast and those who ^fworshiped his image. These two were thrown alive into the ^glake of ^hfire which burns with ²brimstone.

²¹And the rest were killed with the sword which ^acame from the mouth of Him who ^bsits on the horse, and ^call the birds were filled with their flesh.
