## Hallelujah!
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 1
|
||
|
|
After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great crowd in heaven, saying, "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
because His judgments are true and righteous; for He has judged the great harlot who was corrupting the earth with her sexual immorality, and He has avenged the blood of His slaves _shed_ by her hand."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
And a second time they said, "Hallelujah! Her smoke rises up forever and ever."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne saying, "Amen. Hallelujah!"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|
|
And a voice came from the throne, saying, "Give praise to our God, all you His slaves, you who fear Him, the small and the great."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 6
|
||
|
|
Then I heard _something_ like the voice of a great crowd and like the sound of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying, "Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.

###### 7
|
||
|
|
Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready."
|

###### 8
|
||
|
|
And it was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright _and_ clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 9
|
||
|
|
Then he *said to me, "Write, 'Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.'" And he *said to me, "These are true words of God."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 10
|
||
|
|
Then I fell at his feet to worship him. But he *said to me, "Do not do that! I am a fellow slave with you and your brothers who have the witness of Jesus. Worship God! For the witness of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."

Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sits on it _is_ called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.
|
||
|
|
|
||

His eyes _are_ a flame of fire, and on His head _are_ many diadems; having a name written _on Him_ which no one knows except Himself,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 13
|
||
|

and being clothed with a garment dipped in blood, His name is also called The Word of God.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 14
|
||
|
|
And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white _and_ clean, were following Him on white horses.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 15
|
||
|
|
And from His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the wrath of the rage of God, the Almighty.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

And He has on His garment and on His thigh a name written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."

Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to all the birds which fly in midheaven, "Come, assemble for the great supper of God,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 18
|
||
|
|
so that you may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the flesh of strong men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, both free men and slaves, and small and great."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 19
|
||
|
|
Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war with Him who sits on the horse and with His army.

###### 20

And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who did the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.

###### 21

And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sits on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
