Then out of the smoke came locusts onto the earth, and they were given power like that of the scorpions of the earth.

They have as king over them the angel of the abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon.

Furthermore, they did not repent of their murders, of their magic spells, of their sexual immorality, or of their stealing.

Then the serpent spouted water like a river out of his mouth after the woman in an attempt to sweep her away by a flood,

Then I saw another beast coming up from the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, but was speaking like a dragon.

So the one seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.

On her forehead was written a name, a mystery: “Babylon the Great, the Mother of prostitutes and of the detestable things of the earth.”

As for the woman you saw, she is the great city that has sovereignty over the kings of the earth.”

After these things I saw another angel, who possessed great authority, coming down out of heaven, and the earth was lit up by his radiance.

Then the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn for her because no one buys their cargo any longer –

Then I saw an angel descending from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the abyss and a huge chain.

The one who conquers I will make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will never depart from it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God (the new Jerusalem that comes down out of heaven from my God), and my new name as well.

So I looked and here came a pale green horse! The name of the one who rode it was Death, and Hades followed right behind. They were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill its population with the sword, famine, and disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.

So I said to him, “My lord, you know the answer.” Then he said to me, “These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb!

Then the voice I had heard from heaven began to speak to me again, “Go and take the open scroll in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.”

Now the dragon’s tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them to the earth. Then the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child as soon as it was born.
