13 ΑΠΟΛΑΛΥΨΙΣ ΙΩΑΝΝΟΥ Revelation Reference
1Καὶ εἶδον ἐκ τῆς θαλάσσης θηρίον ἀναβαῖνον, ἐχον κέρατα δέκα καὶ κεφαλὰς ἑπτά, καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν κεράτων αὐτοῦ δέκα διαδήματα, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτοῦ ὀνόμα[τα] βλασφημίας. And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems upon its horns and a blasphemous name upon its heads.The Two Beasts Re.13.1-318

2καὶ τὸ θηρίον ὃ εἶδον ἦν ὁμοιον παρδάλει, καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ὡς ἀρκου, καὶ τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ ὡς στόμα λέοντος. καὶ ἐδωκεν αὐτῷ ὁ δράκων τὴν δύναμιν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν θρ όνον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξουσίαν μεγάλην. And the beast that I saw was like a leopard, its feet were like a bear's, and its mouth was like a lion's mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority. 
3καὶ μίαν ἐκ τῶν κεφαλῶν αὐτοῦ ὡς ἐσφαγμένην εἰς θάνατον, καὶ ἡ πληγὴ τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ ἐθεραπεύθη. καὶ ἐθαυμάσθη ὁλη ἡ γῆ ὀπίσω τοῦ θηρίου, One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth followed the beast with wonder. 
4καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ δράκοντι ὅτι ἐδωκεν τὴν ἐξουσίαν τῷ θηρίῳ, καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ θηρίῳ λέγοντες, Τίς ὁμοιος τῷ θηρίῳ, καὶ τίς δύναται πολεμῆσαι μετ' αὐτοῦ; Men worshipped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshipped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it?" 
5Καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ στόμα λαλοῦν μεγάλα καὶ βλασφημίας, καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ἐξουσία ποιῆσαι μῆνας τεσσεράκοντα [καὶ] δύο. And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months; 
6καὶ ἠνοιξεν τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ εἰς βλασφημίας πρὸς τὸν θεόν, βλασφημῆσαι τὸ ὀνομα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ, τοὺς ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ σκηνοῦντας. it opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven. 
7καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ποιῆσαι πόλεμον μετὰ τῶν ἀγίων καὶ νικῆσαι αὐτούς, καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ἐξουσία ἐπὶ πᾶσαν φυλὴν καὶ λαὸν καὶ γλῶσσαν καὶ ἐθνος. Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them. And authority was given it over every tribe and people and tongue and nation, 
8καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, οὗ οὐ γέγραπται τὸ ὀνομα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τῆς ζωῆς τοῦ ἀρνίου τοῦ ἐσφαγμένου ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου. and all who dwell on earth will worship it, every one whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that was slain. 
9Εἰ τις ἐχει οὖς ἀκουσάτω.
If any one has an ear, let him hear: 
10εἴ τις εἰς αἰχμαλωσίαν,
εἰς αἰχμαλωσίαν
ὑπάγει·
εἴ τις ἐν μαχαίρῃ ἀποκτανθῆναι,
αὐτὸν ἐν μαχαίρῃ ἀποκτανθῆναι. Ὦδέ ἐστιν ἡ ὑπομονὴ καὶ ἡ πίστις τῶν ἀγίων.
If any one is to be taken captive,
to captivity he goes;
if any one slays with the sword,
with the sword must he be slain. Here is a call for the endurance and faith of the saints.
- if any one slays with the sword Here is a call for the endurance Re.13.10 | Jr.15.2 | Jr.43.11
11Καὶ εἶδον ἀλλο θηρίον ἀναβαῖνον ἐκ τῆς γῆς, καὶ εἶχεν κέρατα δύο ὁμοια ἀρνίῳ, καὶ ἐλάλει ὡς δράκων. Then I saw another beast which rose out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. 
12καὶ τὴν ἐξουσίαν τοῦ πρώτου θηρίου πᾶσαν ποιεῖ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ. καὶ ποιεῖ τὴν γῆν καὶ τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ κατοικοῦντας ἵνα προσκυνήσουσιν τὸ θηρίον τὸ πρῶτον, οὗ ἐθεραπεύθη ἡ π ληγὴ τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ. It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. 
13καὶ ποιεῖ σημεῖα μεγάλα, ἵνα καὶ πῦρ ποιῇ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καταβαίνειν εἰς τὴν γῆν ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀνθρώπων. It works great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men; 
14καὶ πλανᾷ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς διὰ τὰ σημεῖα ἂ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ποιῆσαι ἐνώπιον τοῦ θηρίου, λέγων τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ποιῆσαι εἰκόνα τῷ θηρίῳ ὃς ἐχει τὴν πληγὴν τῆς μαχαίρης και ἔξησεν. and by the signs which it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast, it deceives those who dwell on earth, bidding them make an image for the beast which was wounded by the sword and yet lived; 
15καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ δοῦναι Πνεῦμα τῇ εἸκόνι τοῦ θηρίου, ἵνα καὶ λαλήσῃ ἡ εἰκὼν τοῦ θηρίου καὶ ποιήσῃ [ἵνα] ὁσοι ἐὰν μὴ προσκυνήσωσιν τῇ εἸκόνι τοῦ θηρίου ἀποκτανθῶσιν. and it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast so that the image of the beast should even speak, and to cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 
ποιήσῃ ἵνα ὁσοι {C} A P 1006 2065 2432 it.ar,gig,(z) vg Hippolytus
16καὶ ποιεῖ πάντας, τοὺς μικροὺς καὶ τοὺς μεγάλους, καὶ τοὺς πλουσίους καὶ τοὺς πτωχούς, καὶ τοὺς ἐλευθέρους καὶ τοὺς δούλους, ἵνα δῶσιν αὐτοῖς χάραγμα ἐπὶ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῶν τῆς δεξιᾶς ἢ ἐπὶ τὸ μέτωπον αὐτῶν. Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, 
17καὶ ἵνα μή τις δύνηται ἀγοράσαι ἢ πωλῆσαι εἰ μὴ ὁ ἐχων τὸ χάραγμα, τὸ ὀνομα τοῦ θηρίου ἢ τὸν ἀριθμὸν τοῦ ὀνόματος αὐτοῦ. so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. 
18Ὦδε ἡ σοφία ἐστίν· ὁ ἐχων νοῦν ψηφισάτω τὸν ἀριθμὸν τοῦ θηρίου, ἀριθμὸς γὰρ ἀνθρώπου ἐστίν· καὶ ὁ ἀριθμὸς αὐτοῦ ἑξακόσιοι ἑξήκοντα ἑξ. This calls for wisdom: let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number, its number is six hundred and sixty-six.
