Revelation 14
1 And I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on the mount Zion, and with him a
hundred and forty and four thousand, having his name, and the name of his
Father, written on their foreheads.
2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice
of a great thunder: and the voice which I heard [was] as [the voice] of harpers
harping with their harps:
3 and they sing as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four
living creatures and the elders: and no man could learn the song save the
hundred and forty and four thousand, [even] they that had been purchased out of
the earth.
4 These are they that were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These
[are] they that follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were purchased
from among men, [to be] the firstfruits unto God and unto the Lamb.
5 And in their mouth was found no lie: they are without blemish.
6 And I saw another angel flying in mid heaven, having eternal good tidings to
proclaim unto them that dwell on the earth, and unto every nation and tribe and
tongue and people;
7 and he saith with a great voice, Fear God, and give him glory; for the hour of
his judgment is come: and worship him that made the heaven and the earth and sea
and fountains of waters.
8 And another, a second angel, followed, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the
great, that hath made all the nations to drink of the wine of the wrath of her
fornication.
9 And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, If any
man worshippeth the beast and his image, and receiveth a mark on his forehead,
or upon his hand,
10 he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is prepared
unmixed in the cup of his anger; and he shall be tormented with fire and
brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 and the smoke of their torment goeth up for ever and ever; and they have no
rest day and night, they that worship the beast and his image, and whoso
receiveth the mark of his name.
12 Here is the patience of the saints, they that keep the commandments of God,
and the faith of Jesus.
13 And I heard the voice from heaven saying, Write, Blessed are the dead who die
in the Lord from henceforth: yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from
their labors; for their works follow with them.
14 And I saw, and behold, a white cloud; and on the cloud [I saw] one sitting
like unto a son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand sharp
sickle.
15 And another angel came out from the temple, crying with a great voice to him
that sat on the cloud, Send forth thy sickle, and reap: for the hour to reap is
come; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
16 And he that sat on the cloud cast his sickle upon the earth; and the earth
was reaped.
17 Another angel came out from the temple which is in heaven, he also having a
sharp sickle.
18 And another angel came out from the altar, he that hath power over fire; and
he called with a great voice to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Send
forth thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for
her grapes are fully ripe.
19 And the angel cast his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vintage of the
earth, and cast it into the winepress, the great [winepress], of the wrath of
God.
20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and there came out blood from
the winepress, even unto the bridles of the horses, as far as a thousand and six
hundred furlongs.
