1 After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,2 for true and just are his judgments. He has condemned the great prostitute who corrupted the earth by her adulteries. He has avenged on her the blood of his servants."3 And again they shouted: "Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever."4 The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they cried: "Amen, Hallelujah!"5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying: "Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, both great and small!"6 Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting: "Hallelujah! For our Lord God Almighty reigns.7 Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.8 Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear." (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of God's holy people.)9 Then the angel said to me, "Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!" And he added, "These are the true words of God."10 At this I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, "Don't do that! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers and sisters who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For it is the Spirit of prophecy who bears testimony to Jesus."11 I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war.12 His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself.13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God.14 The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.15 Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter." "He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in midair, "Come, gather together for the great supper of God,18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, great and small."19 Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army.20 But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.21 The rest were killed with the sword coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.

1 Post hc audivi quasi vocem turbarum multarum in clo dicentium : Alleluja : salus, et gloria, et virtus Deo nostro est : 2 quia vera et justa judicia sunt ejus, qui judicavit de meretrice magna, qu corrupit terram in prostitutione sua, et vindicavit sanguinem servorum suorum de manibus ejus. 3 Et iterum dixerunt : Alleluja. Et fumus ejus ascendit in scula sculorum. 4 Et ceciderunt seniores viginti quatuor, et quatuor animalia, et adoraverunt Deum sedentem super thronum, dicentes : Amen : alleluja. 5 Ex vox de throno exivit, dicens : Laudem dicite Deo nostro omnes servi ejus : et qui timetis eum pusilli et magni. 6 Et audivi quasi vocem turb magn, et sicut vocem aquarum multarum, et sicut vocem tonitruorum magnorum, dicentium : Alleluja : quoniam regnavit Dominus Deus noster omnipotens. 7 Gaudeamus, et exsultemus : et demus gloriam ei : quia venerunt nupti Agni, et uxor ejus prparavit se. 8 Et datum est illi ut cooperiat se byssino splendenti et candido. Byssinum enim justificationes sunt sanctorum. 9 Et dixit mihi : Scribe : Beati qui ad cnam nuptiarum Agni vocati sunt ; et dixit mihi : Hc verba Dei vera sunt. 10 Et cecidi ante pedes ejus, ut adorarem eum. Et dicit mihi : Vide ne feceris : conservus tuus sum, et fratrum tuorum habentium testimonium Jesu. Deum adora. Testimonium enim Jesu est spiritus propheti.11 Et vidi clum apertum, et ecce equus albus, et qui sedebat super eum, vocabatur Fidelis, et Verax, et cum justitia judicat et pugnat. 12 Oculi autem ejus sicut flamma ignis, et in capite ejus diademata multa, habens nomen scriptum, quod nemo novit nisi ipse. 13 Et vestitus erat veste aspersa sanguine : et vocatur nomen ejus : Verbum Dei. 14 Et exercitus qui sunt in clo, sequebantur eum in equis albis, vestiti byssino albo et mundo. 15 Et de ore ejus procedit gladius ex utraque parte acutus, ut in ipso percutiat gentes. Et ipse reget eas in virga ferrea : et ipse calcat torcular vini furoris ir Dei omnipotentis. 16 Et habet in vestimento et in femore suo scriptum : Rex regum et Dominus dominantium.17 Et vidi unum angelum stantem in sole, et clamavit voce magna, dicens omnibus avibus, qu volabant per medium cli : Venite, et congregamini ad cnam magnam Dei : 18 ut manducetis carnes regum, et carnes tribunorum, et carnes fortium, et carnes equorum, et sedentium in ipsis, et carnes omnium liberorum, et servorum, et pusillorum et magnorum. 19 Et vidi bestiam, et reges terr, et exercitus eorum congregatos ad faciendum prlium cum illo, qui sedebat in equo, et cum exercitu ejus. 20 Et apprehensa est bestia, et cum ea pseudopropheta : qui fecit signa coram ipso, quibus seduxit eos, qui acceperunt caracterem besti, et qui adoraverunt imaginem ejus. Vivi missi sunt hi duo in stagnum ignis ardentis sulphure : 21 et ceteri occisi sunt in gladio sedentis super equum, qui procedit de ore ipsius : et omnes aves saturat sunt carnibus eorum.
