1 | One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters, | Rev 15:1 Rev 15:6 Rev 17:1-17 Rev 21:9 |
2 | with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and those who dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her sexual immorality." | Rev 17:13 Rev 17:17 Rev 14:8 Rev 18:3 Rev 18:9 Rev 18:23 Jer 51:7 |
3 | He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored animal, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns. | Rev 1:10 Rev 4:2 Rev 21:10 1Ki 18:12 2Ki 2:16 Ezk 3:12 Ezk 8:3 Ezk 11:24 Ac 8:39 |
4 | The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations, even the unclean things of her sexual immorality, | Rev 18:7 Rev 18:12 Rev 18:16 |
5 | and on her forehead a name written, "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH." | Rev 7:3 Isa 3:9 Php 3:19 |
6 | I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement. | Rev 13:7 Rev 13:15 Rev 16:6 Rev 18:20-24 Dn 7:21 Dn 7:25 |
7 | The angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns. | Rev 17:1-6 Rev 17:8-6 |
8 | The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss, and to go into destruction. Those who dwell on the earth will wonder, whose name has not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast, how that he was, and is not, and will come. | Rev 9:2 Rev 11:7 Rev 13:1-11 |
9 | Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits. | Rev 13:18 Dn 12:4 Dn 12:8-10 Hos 14:9 Mt 13:11 Mt 24:15 |
10 | They are seven kings. Five have fallen, the one is, the other is not yet come. When he comes, he must continue a little while. | Rev 17:10 |
11 | The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction. | Rev 17:8 |
12 | The ten horns that you saw are ten kings, who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority as kings, with the beast, for one hour. | Rev 12:3 Rev 13:1 Dn 2:40-43 Dn 7:7 Dn 7:8 Dn 7:20 Dn 7:24 Zc 1:18-21 |
13 | These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast. | Php 1:27 Php 2:2 |
14 | These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings. They also will overcome who are with him, called and chosen and faithful." | Rev 11:7 Rev 8:6 Rev 8:7 Rev 16:14 Rev 19:15-21 Dn 7:21 Dn 7:25 Dn 11:9-12 Dn 11:24-12 Dn 11:25-12 Zc 2:8 Mt 25:40 Ac 9:4 Ac 9:5 |
15 | He said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages. | Rev 17:1 Ps 18:4 Ps 65:7 Ps 93:3-4 Isa 8:7 Isa 8:8 Jer 51:13 Jer 51:42 Jer 51:55 |
16 | The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire. | Rev 17:2 Rev 17:10 Rev 17:12 |
17 | For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, and to come to unity of mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished. | Rev 17:13 Ac 4:27 Ac 4:28 |
18 | The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth." | Rev 16:19 Rev 18:2 Dn 2:40 Dn 2:41 Dn 7:23 Lk 2:1 |
