Revelation 17 1. And there came <2064-erchomai-> one <1520-heis-> of the seven <2033-hepta-> angels <0032-aggelos-> which <3588-ho-> had <2192-echo-> the seven <2033-hepta-> vials <5357-phiale->, and talked <2980-laleo-> with me, saying <3004-lego-> unto me, Come <1204-deuro-> hither <1204-deuro->; I will shew <1166-deiknuo-> unto thee the judgment <2917-krima-> of the great <3173-megas-> whore <4204-porne-> that sitteth <2521-kathemai-> upon many <4183-polus-> waters <5204-hudor->: 2 With whom <3739-hos-> the kings <0935-basileus-> of the earth <1093-ge-> have committed <4203-porneuo-> fornication <4203-porneuo->, and the inhabitants <2730-katoikeo-> of the earth <1093-ge-> have been made <3182-methusko-> drunk <3182- methusko-> with the wine <3631-oinos-> of her fornication <4202- porneia->. 3 So <2532-kai-> he carried <0667-appohero-> me away <0667- appohero-> in the spirit <4151-pneuma-> into <1519-eis-> the wilderness <2048-eremos->: and I saw <1492-eido-> a woman <1135- gune-> sit <2521-kathemai-> upon a scarlet <2847-kokkinos-> coloured beast <2342-therion->, full <1073-gemo-> of names <3686- onoma-> of blasphemy <0988-blasphemia->, having <2192-echo-> seven <2033-hepta-> heads <2776-kephale-> and ten <1176-deka-> horns <2768-keras->. 4 And the woman <1135-gune-> was arrayed <4016-periballo-> in purple <4209-porphura-> and scarlet <2847-kokkinos-> colour, and decked <5558-chrusoo-> with gold <5557-chrusos-> and precious <5093-timios-> stones <3037-lithos-> and pearls <3135- margarites->, having <2192-echo-> a golden <5552-chruseos-> cup <4221-poterion-> in her hand <5495-cheir-> full <1073-gemo-> of abominations <0946-bdelugma-> and filthiness <0168-akathartes-> of her fornication <4202-porneia->: 5 And upon her forehead <3359-metopon-> [was] a name <3686- onoma-> written <1125-grapho->, MYSTERY <3466-musterion->, BABYLON <0897-Babulon-> THE GREAT <3173-megas->, THE MOTHER <3384-meter-> OF HARLOTS <4204-porne-> AND ABOMINATIONS <0946- bdelugma-> OF THE EARTH <1093-ge->. 6 And I saw <1492-eido-> the woman <1135-gune-> drunken <3184-methuo-> with the blood <0129-haima-> of the saints <0040- hagios->, and with the blood <0129-haima-> of the martyrs <3144- martus-> of Jesus <2424-Iesous->: and when I saw <1492-eido-> her, I wondered <1839-existemi-> with great <3173-megas-> admiration <2295-thauma->. 7. And the angel <0032-aggelos-> said <2036-epo-> unto me, Wherefore <1302-diati-> didst thou marvel <2296-thaumazo->? I will tell <2046-ereo-> thee the mystery <3466-musterion-> of the woman <1135-gune->, and of the beast <2342-therion-> that carrieth <0941-bastazo-> her, which <3588-ho-> hath <2192-echo-> the seven <2033-hepta-> heads <2776-kephale-> and ten <1176-deka- > horns <2768-keras->. 8 The beast <2342-therion-> that thou sawest <1492-eido-> was, and is not; and shall ascend <0305-anabaino-> out of the bottomless <0012-abussos-> pit, and go <5217-hupago-> into <1519- eis-> perdition <0684-apoleia->: and they that dwell <2730- katoikeo-> on <1909-epi-> the earth <1093-ge-> shall wonder <2296-thaumazo->, whose <3739-hos-> names <3686-onoma-> were not written <1125-grapho-> in the book <0976-biblos-> of life <2222- zoe-> from the foundation <2602-katabole-> of the world <2889- kosmos->, when they behold <0991-blepo-> the beast <2342-therion- > that was, and is not, and yet <2539-kaiper-> is. 9 And here <5602-hode-> [is] the mind <3563-nous-> which <3588-ho-> hath <2192-echo-> wisdom <4678-sophia->. The seven <2033-hepta-> heads <2776-kephale-> are seven <2033-hepta-> mountains <3735-oros->, on <1909-epi-> which <0846-autos-> the woman <1135-gune-> sitteth <2521-kathemai->. 10 And there are seven <2033-hepta-> kings <0935-basileus- >: five <4002-pente-> are fallen <4098-pipto->, and one <1520- heis-> is, [and] the other <0243-allos-> is not yet <3768-oupo-> come <2064-erchomai->; and when <3752-hotan-> he cometh <2064- erchomai->, he must <1163-dei-> continue <3306-meno-> a short <3641-oligos-> space. 11 And the beast <2342-therion-> that was, and is not, even <2532-kai-> he is the eighth <3590-ogdoos->, and is of the seven <2033-hepta->, and goeth <5217-hupago-> into <1519-eis-> perdition <0684-apoleia->. 12 And the ten <1176-deka-> horns <2768-keras-> which <3739-hos-> thou sawest <1492-eido-> are ten <1176-deka-> kings <0935-basileus->, which <3748-hostis-> have received <2983- lambano-> no <3768-oupo-> kingdom <0932-basileia-> as yet <3768- oupo->; but receive <2983-lambano-> power <1849-exousia-> as kings <0935-basileus-> one <3391-mia-> hour <5610-hora-> with the beast <2342-therion->. 13 These <3778-houtos-> have <2192-echo-> one <3391-mia-> mind <1106-gnome->, and shall give <1239-diadidomai-> their power <1411-dunamis-> and strength <1849-exousia-> unto the beast <2342-therion->. 14. These <3778-houtos-> shall make <4170-polemeo-> war <4170-polemeo-> with the Lamb <0721-arnion->, and the Lamb <0721- arnion-> shall overcome <3528-nikao-> them: for he is Lord <2962- kurios-> of lords <2962-kurios->, and King <0935-basileus-> of kings <0935-basileus->: and they that are with him [are] called <2822-kletos->, and chosen <1588-eklektos->, and faithful <4103- pistos->. 15 And he saith <3004-lego-> unto me, The waters <5204- hudor-> which <3739-hos-> thou sawest <1492-eido->, where <3757- hou-> the whore <4204-porne-> sitteth <2521-kathemai->, are peoples <2992-laos->, and multitudes <3793-ochlos->, and nations <1484-ethnos->, and tongues <1100-glossa->. 16 And the ten <1176-deka-> horns <2768-keras-> which <3739-hos-> thou sawest <1492-eido-> upon the beast <2342- therion->, these <3778-houtos-> shall hate <3404-miseo-> the whore <4204-porne->, and shall make <4160-poieo-> her desolate <2049-eremoo-> and naked <1131-gumnos->, and shall eat <5315- phago-> her flesh <4561-sarx->, and burn <2618-katakaio-> her with fire <4442-pur->. 17 For God <2316-theos-> hath put <1325-didomi-> in their hearts <2588-kardia-> to fulfil <4160-poieo-> his will <1106- gnome->, and to agree <4160-poieo->, and give <1325-didomi-> their kingdom <0932-basileia-> unto the beast <2342-therion->, until <0891-achri-> the words <4487-rhema-> of God <2316-theos-> shall be fulfilled <5055-teleo->. 18 And the woman <1135-gune-> which <3739-hos-> thou sawest <1492-eido-> is that great <3173-megas-> city <4172-polis- >, which <3588-ho-> reigneth <0932-basileia-> over <1909-epi-> the kings <0935-basileus-> of the earth <1093-ge->. ~~~~~~
