7 When they nfinish their testimony, othe beast that ascends pout of the bottomless pit qwill make war against them, overcome them, and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies will lie in the street of rthe great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, swhere also 3our Lord was crucified. 9 tThen those from the peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations 4will see their dead bodies three-and-a-half days, uand not allow their dead bodies to be put into graves. 10 vAnd those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, make merry, wand send gifts to one another, xbecause these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
About The New King James VersionThe New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study. |
