Revelation 11:4-6

11:4 (These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.) ¹  11:5 If ²  anyone wants to harm them, fire comes out of their mouths ³  and completely consumes ⁴  their enemies. If ⁵  anyone wants to harm them, they must be killed this way. 11:6 These two have the power ⁶  to close up the sky so that it does not rain during the time ⁷  they are prophesying. They ⁸  have power ⁹  to turn the waters to blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague whenever they want.
