ASV_Strong : Revelation 17
1. And[G2532] there came[G2064] one[G1520] of[G1537] the seven[G2033] angels[G32] that had[G2192] the seven[G2033] bowls[G5357], and[G2532] spake[G2980] with[G3326] me[G1700], saying[G3004], [G3427] Come hither[G1204], I will show[G1166] thee[G4671] the judgment[G2917] of the great[G3173] harlot[G4204] that sitteth[G2521] upon[G1909] many[G4183] waters[G5204];
2. with[G3326] whom[G3739] the kings[G935] of the earth[G1093] committed fornication[G4203], and[G2532] they that dwell[G2730] in the earth[G1093] were made drunken[G3184] with[G1537] the wine[G3631] of her[G846] fornication[G4202].
3. And[G2532] he carried[G667] me[G3165] away in[G1722] the Spirit[G4151] into[G1519] a wilderness[G2048]: and[G2532] I saw[G1492] a woman[G1135] sitting[G2521] upon[G1909] a scarlet-colored[G2847] beast[G2342], full[G1073] of names[G3686] of blasphemy[G988], having[G2192] seven[G2033] heads[G2776] and[G2532] ten[G1176] horns[G2768].
4. And[G2532] the woman[G1135] was arrayed[G4016] in purple[G4209] and[G2532] scarlet[G2847], and[G2532] decked[G5558] with gold[G5557] and[G2532] precious[G5093] stone[G3037] and[G2532] pearls[G3135], having[G2192] in[G1722] her[G846] hand[G5495] a golden[G5552] cup[G4221] full[G1073] of abominations[G946], even[G2532] the unclean[G168] things of her[G846] fornication[G4202],
5. and[G2532] upon[G1909] her[G846] forehead[G3359] a name[G3686] written[G1125], MYSTERY[G3466], BABYLON[G897] THE GREAT[G3173], THE MOTHER[G3384] OF THE HARLOTS[G4204] AND[G2532] OF THE ABOMINATIONS[G946] OF THE EARTH[G1093].
6. And[G2532] I saw[G1492] the woman[G1135] drunken[G3184] with[G1537] the blood[G129] of the saints[G40], and[G2532] with[G1537] the blood[G129] of the martyrs[G3144] of Jesus[G2424]. And[G2532] when I saw[G1492] her[G846], I wondered[G2296] with a great[G3173] wonder[G2295].
7. And[G2532] the angel[G32] said unto[G2036] me[G3427], Wherefore[G1223] didst thou wonder[G2296]? I[G1473] will tell[G2046] thee[G4671] the mystery[G3466] of the woman[G1135], and[G2532] of the beast[G2342] that carrieth[G941] her[G846], which[G5101] hath[G2192] the seven[G2033] heads[G2776] and[G2532] the ten[G1176] horns[G2768].
8. The beast[G2342] that[G3739] thou sawest[G1492] was[G2258], and[G2532] is[G2076] not[G3756]; and[G2532] is[G3195] about to come[G305] up out of[G1537] the abyss[G12], and[G2532] to go[G5217] into[G1519] perdition[G684]. And[G2532] they that dwell[G2730] on[G1909] the earth[G1093] shall wonder[G2296], they whose[G3739] name[G3686] hath[G1125] not[G3756] been written[G1125] in[G1909] the book[G975] of life[G2222] from[G575] the foundation[G2602] of the world[G2889], when they behold[G991] the beast[G2342], how that he was[G3748], and[G2532] is[G2076] not[G3756], and shall[G2539] come[G2076].
9. Here[G5602] is the mind[G3563] that hath[G2192] wisdom[G4678]. The seven[G2033] heads[G2776] are[G1526] seven[G2033] mountains[G3699], on[G1909] which[G846] the woman[G1135] sitteth[G2521]:
10. and[G2532] they are[G1526] seven[G2033] kings[G935]; the five[G4002] are fallen[G4098], the[G2532] one[G1520] is[G2076], the other[G243] is not yet[G3768] come[G2064]; and[G2532] when[G3752] he[G846] cometh[G2064], he must[G1163] continue[G3306] a little while[G3641].
11. And[G2532] the beast[G2342] that[G3739] was[G2258], and[G2532] is[G2076] not[G3756], is[G2076] himself[G846] also[G2532] an eighth[G3590], and[G2532] is[G2076] of[G1537] the seven[G2033]; and[G2532] he goeth[G5217] into[G1519] perdition[G684].
12. And[G2532] the ten[G1176] horns[G2768] that[G3739] thou sawest[G1492] are[G1526] ten[G1176] kings[G935], who[G3748] have received[G2983] no[G3768] kingdom[G932] as yet[G3768]; but[G235] they receive[G2983] authority[G1849] as[G5613] kings[G935], with[G3326] the beast[G2342], for one[G1520] hour[G5610].
13. These[G3778] have[G2192] one[G1520] mind[G1106], and[G2532] they give[G1239] their[G1438] power[G1411] and[G2532] authority[G1849] unto the beast[G2342].
14. These[G3778] shall war[G4170] against[G3326] the Lamb[G721], and[G2532] the Lamb[G721] shall overcome[G3528] them[G846], for[G3754] he is[G2076] Lord[G2962] of lords[G2962], and[G2532] King[G935] of kings[G935]; and[G2532] they also shall overcome that are[G3588] with[G3326] him[G846], called[G2822] and[G2532] chosen[G1588] and[G2532] faithful[G4103].
15. And[G2532] he saith[G3004] unto me[G3427], The waters[G5204] which[G3739] thou sawest[G1492], where[G3757] the harlot[G4204] sitteth[G2521], are[G1526] peoples[G2992], and[G2532] multitudes[G3793], and[G2532] nations[G1484], and[G2532] tongues[G1100].
16. And[G2532] the ten[G1176] horns[G2768] which[G3739] thou sawest[G1492], and[G2532] the beast[G2342], these[G3778] shall hate[G3404] the harlot[G4204], and[G2532] shall make[G4160] her[G846] desolate[G2049] and[G2532] naked[G1131], and[G2532] shall eat[G5315] her[G846] flesh[G4561], and[G2532] shall burn[G2618] her[G846] utterly with[G1722] fire[G4442].
17. For[G1063] God[G2316] did put[G1325] in[G1519] their[G846] hearts[G2588] to do[G4160] his[G846] mind[G1106], and[G2532] to come to one[G1520] mind[G1106], and[G2532] to give[G1325] their[G846] kingdom[G932] unto the beast[G2342], until[G891] the words[G4487] of God[G2316] should be accomplished[G5055].
18. And[G2532] the woman[G1135] whom[G3739] thou sawest[G1492] is[G2076] the great[G3173] city[G4172], which[G2192] reigneth[G932] over[G1909] the kings[G935] of the earth[G1093].
