    Triumphant song in heaven. REVELATION,XIX. The Millennium and resurrectio earth; for by thy sorceries® wore all na- tions deceived. 24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slam* upon the earth. A _TT_ , CHAPTER XIX. -tVJN I) alter these things I heard a great voice ot much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia;/ Salvation,u and glory, and ho- nour and power, unto the Lord our God: 2 lor true* and righteous are his judg- ments : for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged* the blood ot his servants at her hand. 3 And again they said. Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. 4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. 5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise^ our God all ye his ser- vants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. 6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and ns the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty tliun- derings, saying, Alleluia; for* the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. 7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage’1 of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.® 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed* in fine linen, clean and 0 white: for the fine linen is the righteousness® of saints. 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed6 are they which are called unto the mar- riage supper’* of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These® are the true sayings of God. 10 And/ I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Je- sus; worship God: for the testimony of Jesus* is the spirit of prophecy. 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white* horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful* and True, and in right- eousness”' he doth judge and make war. 12 His” eyes ivere as a flame of fire, and on his head ivere many crowns;0 and he had a name” written, that no man knew but he himself. 13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The* Word of God. 14 And the armies which were in hen- followed him upon white horses, A.D. 90. ven clothed® in fine linen, white and clean. 15 And out of his mouth*’ goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod* of iron: and he** treadeth the wine- press of the fierceness and wrath of Al- mighty God. 16 And he hath on his vesture and on Lis thigh a name written, ICING® OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. 17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come** and gather yourselves to- gether unto the supper of the great God ; 18 That ye may eat the ilesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of « 2Ki. 9. 22.

A ATn T CHAPTER XX. -cUNU l saw an angel come down fro heaven havmg the key0 of the bottomle pit and a great chain in his baud. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon,* thi old serpent, which is the Devil, and S' tan, and bound' him a thousand years, 3 And cast him into the bottomless pi and shut him up, and 6et a seal* upon liir that he should deceive the nations n: more, till the thousand years should t fulfilled: and after that he must be loose a little season. 4 And I saw thrones,” and they sat upo them, and judgment*0 was given unt them: and I saw the souls!* of them thi were beheaded for the witness of Jesu and for the word of God, and which ha not worshipped the beast, neither hi image, neither had received his mar upon then’ foreheads, or in their hands and they lived and reigned0 with Chris a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead lived no again until the thousand years wer finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part ii the first resurrection: on such the seeom deaths hath no power, but they shall b priests* of God and of Christ, and shal reign with him a thousand years. 7 And when the thousand years an expired, Satan shall be loosed out of hi prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the na tions which are in the four quarters o the earth, Gog a and Magog, to gather1 them together to battle: the number o. whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they* went up on the breadth oi the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast info the lake10 of fire and brim- stone, where the beast and the false pro- phet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth* and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God: and the books6 were opened: and another book0 was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according' to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which
