Revelation 19
19AFTER THIS I heard what sounded like a mighty shout of a great crowd in heaven, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! Salvation and glory (splendor and majesty) and power (dominion and authority) [belong] to our God!G2532G3326G5023G191G3173G5456G4183G3793G1722G3772G3004G239G4991G2532G1391G2532G5092G2532G1411G2962G2257G23162Because His judgments (His condemnation and punishment, His sentences of doom) are true {and} sound and just {and} upright. He has judged (convicted, pronounced sentence, and doomed) the great {and} notorious harlot (idolatress) who corrupted {and} demoralized {and} poisoned the earth with her lewdness {and} adultery (idolatry). And He has avenged (visited on her the penalty for) the blood of His servants at her hand.G3754G228G2532G1342G846G2920G3754G2919G3173G4204G3748G5351G1093G1722G846G4202G2532G1556G129G846G1401G1537G846G54953And again they shouted, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! The smoke of her [burning] shall continue to ascend forever and ever (through the eternities of the eternities).G2532G1208G2046G239G2532G846G2586G305G1519G165G1654Then the twenty-four elders [of the heavenly Sanhedrin] and the four living creatures fell prostrate and worshiped [paying divine honors to] God, Who sits on the throne, saying, Amen! Hallelujah (praise the Lord)!G2532G5064G2532G1501G4245G2532G5064G2226G4098G2532G4352G2316G2521G1909G2362G3004G281G2395Then from the throne there came a voice, saying, Praise our God, all you servants of His, you who reverence Him, both small and great!G2532G5456G1831G1537G2362G3004G134G2257G2316G3956G846G1401G2532G5399G846G2532G3398G2532G31736After that I heard what sounded like the shout of a vast throng, like the boom of many pounding waves, and like the roar of terrific {and} mighty peals of thunder, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! For now the Lord our God the Omnipotent (the All-Ruler) reigns!G2532G191G5613G5456G4183G3793G2532G5613G5456G4183G5204G2532G5613G5456G2478G1027G3004G239G3754G2962G2316G3841G9367Let us rejoice and shout for joy [exulting and triumphant]! Let us celebrate {and} ascribe to Him glory {and} honor, for the marriage of the Lamb [at last] has come, and His bride has prepared herself.G5463G2532G21G2532G1325G1391G846G3754G1062G721G2064G2532G846G1135G2090G1438G20908She has been permitted to dress in fine (radiant) linen, dazzling and white--for the fine linen is (signifies, represents) the righteousness (the upright, just, and godly living, deeds, and conduct, and right standing with God) of the saints (God's holy people).G2532G846G1325G2443G4016G1039G2513G2532G2986G1063G1039G2076G1345G409Then [the angel] said to me, Write this down: Blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who are summoned (invited, called) to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said to me [further], These are the true words (the genuine and exact declarations) of God.G2532G3004G3427G1125G3107G2564G1519G1062G1173G721G2532G3004G3427G3778G1526G228G3056G231610Then I fell prostrate at his feet to worship (to pay divine honors) to him, but he [restrained me] and said, Refrain! [You must not do that!] I am [only] another servant with you and your brethren who have [accepted and hold] the testimony borne by Jesus. Worship God! For the substance (essence) of the truth revealed by Jesus is the spirit of all prophecy [the vital breath, the inspiration of all inspired preaching and interpretation of the divine will and purpose, including both mine and yours].G2532G4098G1715G846G4228G4352G846G2532G3004G3427G3708G3361G1510G4675G4889G2532G4675G80G2192G3141G2424G4352G2316G1063G3141G2424G2076G4151G439411After that I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse [appeared]! The One Who was riding it is called Faithful (Trustworthy, Loyal, Incorruptible, Steady) and True, and He passes judgment and wages war in righteousness (holiness, justice, and uprightness).G2532G1492G3772G455G2532G2400G3022G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2564G4103G2532G228G2532G1722G1343G2919G2532G417012His eyes [blaze] like a flame of fire, and on His head are many kingly crowns (diadems); and He has a title (name) inscribed which He alone knows {or} can understand.G1161G846G3788G5613G5395G4442G2532G1909G846G2776G4183G1238G2192G3686G1125G3739G3762G1492G1508G84613He is dressed in a robe dyed by dipping in blood, and the title by which He is called is The Word of God.G2532G4016G2440G911G129G2532G846G3686G2564G3056G231614And the troops of heaven, clothed in fine linen, dazzling and clean, followed Him on white horses.G2532G4753G3588G1722G3772G190G846G1909G3022G2462G1746G1039G3022G2532G251315From His mouth goes forth a sharp sword with which He can smite (afflict, strike) the nations; and He will shepherd {and} control them with a staff (scepter, rod) of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath {and} indignation of God the All-Ruler (the Almighty, the Omnipotent).G2532G1537G846G4750G1607G3691G4501G2443G1722G846G3960G1484G2532G846G4165G846G1722G4464G4603G2532G846G3961G3025G3631G2372G2532G3709G3841G231616And on His garment (robe) and on His thigh He has a name (title) inscribed, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.G2532G2192G1909G2440G2532G1909G846G3382G3686G1125G935G935G2532G2962G296217Then I saw a single angel stationed in the sun's light, and with a mighty voice he shouted to all the birds that fly across the sky, Come, gather yourselves together for the great supper of God,G2532G1492G1520G32G2476G1722G2246G2532G2896G3173G5456G3004G3956G3732G4072G1722G3321G1205G2532G4863G1519G1173G3173G231618That you may feast on the flesh of rulers, the flesh of generals {and} captains, the flesh of powerful {and} mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all humanity, both free and slave, both small and great!G2443G5315G4561G935G2532G4561G5506G2532G4561G2478G2532G4561G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2532G4561G3956G1658G2532G1401G2532G3398G2532G317319Then I saw the beast and the rulers {and} leaders of the earth with their troops mustered to go into battle {and} make war against Him Who is mounted on the horse and against His troops.G2532G1492G2342G2532G935G1093G2532G846G4753G4863G4160G4171G3326G2521G1909G2462G2532G3326G846G475320And the beast was seized {and} overpowered, and with him the false prophet who in his presence had worked wonders {and} performed miracles by which he led astray those who had accepted {or} permitted to be placed upon them the stamp (mark) of the beast and those who paid homage {and} gave divine honors to his statue. Both of them were hurled alive into the fiery lake that burns {and} blazes with brimstone.G2532G2342G4084G2532G3326G5127G5578G4160G4592G1799G846G1722G3739G4105G2983G5480G2342G2532G4352G846G1504G1417G906G2198G1519G3041G4442G2545G1722G230321And the rest were killed with the sword that issues from the mouth of Him Who is mounted on the horse, and all the birds fed ravenously {and} glutted themselves with their flesh.G2532G3062G615G1722G4501G2521G1909G2462G3588G1607G1537G846G4750G2532G3956G3732G5526G1537G846G4561
