Revelation 19

New King James Version

Heaven Exults over Babylon

19 After these things^(A)I^[a]heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Alleluia!^(B)Salvation and glory and honor and powerbelongto^[b]the Lord our God!² For^(C)true and righteousareHis judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He^(D)has avenged on her the blood of His servantsshedby her.”³ Again they said, “Alleluia!^(E)Her smoke rises up forever and ever!”⁴ And^(F)the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying,^(G)“Amen! Alleluia!”⁵ Then a voice came from the throne, saying,^(H)“Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him,^(I)both^[c]small and great!”

^6 (J)And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For^(K)the^[d]Lord God Omnipotent reigns!⁷ Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for^(L)the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”⁸ And^(M)to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright,^(N)for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

⁹ Then he said to me, “Write:^(O)‘Blessedarethose who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’ ” And he said to me,^(P)“These are the true sayings of God.”¹⁰ And^(Q)I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me,^(R)“Seethat you donotdo that!I am your^(S)fellow servant, and of your brethren^(T)who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the^(U)testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

Christ on a White Horse

^11 (V)Now I saw heaven opened, and behold,^(W)a white horse. And He who sat on himwascalled^(X)Faithful and True, and^(Y)in righteousness He judges and makes war.^12 (Z)His eyeswerelike a flame of fire, and on His headweremany crowns.^(AA)He^[e]had a name written that no one knew except Himself.^13 (AB)Hewasclothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called^(AC)The Word of God.^14 (AD)And the armies in heaven,^(AE)clothed in^[f]fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.¹⁵ Now^(AF)out of His mouth goes a^[g]sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And^(AG)He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron.^(AH)He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.¹⁶ And^(AI)He has onHisrobe and on His thigh a name written:

^(AJ)KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS.

The Beast and His Armies Defeated

¹⁷ Then I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven,^(AK)“Come and gather together for the^[h]supper of the great God,^18 (AL)that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of allpeople,^[i]free and slave, both small and great.”

^19 (AM)And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.^20 (AN)Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and^(AO)those who worshiped his image.^(AP)These two were cast alive into the lake of fire^(AQ)burning with brimstone.²¹ And the rest^(AR)were killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse.^(AS)And all the birds^(AT)were filled with their flesh.
