Revelation 19

1 Praises are given unto God for judging the whore, and for avenging the blood of his servants. 10 The Angel will not be
1.And after these things I heard a great voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, aHallelu-jah, salvation and glory, and honour, and power be to the Lord our God.
2.For btrue and righteous are his judgements: for he hath condemned the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants shed by her hand.
3.And again they said Hallelu-jah: and her csmoke rose up forevermore.
4.And the four and twenty Elders, and the four dbeasts fell down, and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, eAmen, Hallelu-jah.
5.Then a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
6.And I heard like a voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of strong thunderings, saying, Hallelu-jah: for our Lord God almighty hath reigned.
7.Let us be glad and rejoice, and give glory to him: for the fmarriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8.And to her was granted, that she should be arrayed with pure fine linen and shining, for the fine linen is the righteousness of Saints.
9.Then ghe said unto me, Write, *Blessed are they which are hcalled unto the Lamb’s supper. And he said unto me, These words of God are true.
10.And I fell before his feet, *to worship him: but he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am the fellow servant, and one of thy brethren, which have the itestimony of Jesus. Worship God: for the ktestimony of Jesus, is the spirit of prophecy.
11.And I saw heaven open, and behold a white lhorse, and he that sat upon him, was called mFaithful and true, and he njudgeth and fighteth righteously.
12.And his eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were omany crowns: and he had a name written, that no man pknew but himself.
13.And *he was clothed with a garment dipped in qblood, and his name is called, THE rWORD OF GOD.
14.And the swarriors which were in heaven, followed him upon white horses, clothed with fine linen white and pure.
15.And out of his mouth went out a sharp tsword, that with it he should smite the heathen: for he *shall rule them with a rod of iron: for he it is that treadeth the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of almighty God.
16.And he hath upon his garment, and upon his uthigh a name written, *THE KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17.And I saw an Angel stand in the xsun, who cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that did fly by the middes of heaven, Come, and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God,
18.That ye may eat the flesh of Kings, and the flesh of high Captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all free men and bondmen, and of small and great.
19.And I saw the beast, and the Kings of the earth, and their ywarriors gathered together to make battle against him, that sat on the horse and against his soldiers.
20.But the beast was ztaken, & with him that false prophet that wrought miracles before him, whereby he deceived them that received the beast’s mark, and they that worshipped his image. These both were alive cast into a lake of fire, burning with brimstone.
21.And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sitteth upon the horse, which cometh out of his mouth, and all the fowls were full with their flesh.
