7 It was granted to him to wage war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe and tongue and nation.
8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb who was slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear:
10 “He who is to be taken captive,into captivity he shall go;he who kills with the sword,with the sword he must be killed.”Here is a call for the patience and the faith of the saints.
11 Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and he spoke like a dragon.
12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence and causes the earth and those who dwell on it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 He performs great signs, making fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
