1Then was given me a reed like unto a rod, and the Angel stood by, saying, Rise and mete the Temple of God, and the Altar, and them that worship therein.
2But the Court which is without the Temple cast out, and mete it not: for it is given unto the Gentiles, and the holy city shall they tread under foot, two and forty Months.
3But I will give power unto my two witnesses and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4These are two olive trees, and two candlesticks, standing before the God of the earth.
5And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouths and devoureth their enemies: for if any man would hurt them, thus must he be killed.
6These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophesying, and have power over waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with all manner plagues, as often as they will.
7And when they have finished their testimony, the beast that cometh out of the bottomless pit, shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them,
8And their corpses shall lie in the streets of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where our Lord also was crucified.
9And they of the people and kindreds, and tongues, and Gentiles, shall see their corpses three days and an half, and shall not suffer their carcasses to be put in graves.
10And they that dwell upon the earth, shall rejoice over them and be glad, and shall send gifts one to another, for these two Prophets vexed them that dwelt on the earth.
11But after three days and an half, the spirit of life coming from God, shall enter into them, and they shall stand up upon their feet: and great fear shall come upon them which saw them.
12And they shall hear a great voice from heaven, saying unto them, Come up hither: And they shall ascend up to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies shall see them.
13And the same hour shall there be a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city shall fall, and in the earthquake shall be slain in number seven thousand: and the remnant were sore feared, and gave glory to God of heaven.
14The second woe is past, and behold, the third woe will come anon.
15And the seventh Angel blew the trumpet, and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of the world are our Lord’s, and his Christ’s, and he shall reign for evermore.
16Then the four and twenty Elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces and worshipped God.
17Saying, We give thee thanks, Lord God Almighty, Which art, and which wast, and which art to come: for thou hast received thy great might, and hast obtained thy kingdom.
18And the Gentiles were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the Prophets, and to thy Saints, and to them that fear thy Name, to small and great, and shouldest destroy them, which destroy the earth.
19Then the Temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in the Temple the Ark of his covenant: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and earthquake, and much hail.
