Revelation 14 – Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

The Lamb and the 144,000

1 Then ^G2532 I looked ^G3708, and behold ^G2400, the Lamb ^G721 was standing ^G2476 on Mount ^G3735 Zion ^G4622, and with Him 144,000 ^{G1540 G5062 G5064 G5505}, having ^G2192 His name ^G3686 and the name ^G3686 of His Father ^G3962 written ^G1125 on their foreheads ^G3359.

2 And I heard ^G191 a voice ^G5456 from heaven ^G3772, like ^G5613 the sound ^G5456 of many ^G4183 waters ^G5204 and like ^G5613 the sound ^G5456 of loud ^G3173 thunder ^G1027, and the voice ^G5456 which ^G3739 I heard ^G191 was like ^G5613 the sound of harpists ^G2790 playing ^G2789 on their harps ^G2788. 3 And they *[fn]sang ^G103 a new ^G2537 song ^G5603 before ^G1799 the throne ^G2362 and before ^G1799 the four ^G5064 living ^G2226 creatures ^G2226 and the elders ^G4245. And no ^G3762 one ^G3762 could ^G1410 learn ^G3129 that song ^G5603 except ^G1508 the 144,000 ^{G1540 G5062 G5064 G5505} who had been purchased ^G59 from the earth ^G1093. 4 These ^G3778 are the ones who are not defiled ^G3435 with women ^G1135, for they are ^G1510 virgins ^G3933. These ^G3778 are the ones who follow ^G190 the Lamb ^G721 wherever ^G3699 G302 He goes ^G5217. These ^G3778 have been purchased ^G59 from among ^G575 men ^G444 as first ^G536 fruits ^G536 to God ^G2316 and to the Lamb ^G721. 5 And NO ^G3756 LIE ^G5579 WAS FOUND ^G2147 IN THEIR MOUTH ^G4750; they are blameless ^G299.

The Messages of the Three Angels

6 Then I saw ^G3708 another ^G243 angel ^G32 flying ^G4072 in midheaven ^G3321, having ^G2192 an eternal ^G166 gospel ^G2098 to proclaim ^G2097 to those ^G3588 who [fn]inhabit ^G2521 the earth ^G1093, and to every ^G3956 nation ^G1484 and tribe ^G5443 and tongue ^G1100 and people ^G2992.

7 And he said ^G3004 with a loud ^G3173 voice ^G5456, “Fear ^G5399 God ^G2316, and give ^G1325 Him glory ^G1391, because ^G3754 the hour ^G5610 of His judgment ^G2920 has come ^G2064; worship ^G4352 Him who made ^G4160 the heaven ^G3772 and the earth ^G1093 and sea ^G2281 and springs ^G4077 of waters.”

8 And another ^G243 angel ^G32, a second ^G1208 one ^G1208, followed ^G190, saying ^G3004, “[fn]FALLEN ^G4098, FALLEN ^G4098 IS BABYLON ^G897 THE GREAT ^G3173, she who ^G3739 has made ^G4222 all ^G3956 the nations ^G1484 drink ^G4222 of the wine ^G3631 of the wrath ^G2372 of her [fn]sexual ^G4202 immorality ^G4202.”

9 Then ^G2532 another ^G243 angel ^G32, a third ^G5154 one ^G5154, followed ^G190 them, saying ^G3004 with a loud ^G3173 voice ^G5456, “If ^G1487 anyone ^G5100 worships ^G4352 the beast ^G2342 and his image ^G1504, and receives ^G2983 a mark ^G5480 on his forehead ^G3359 or ^G2228 on his hand ^G5495, 10 and he also ^G2532 will drink ^G4095 of the wine ^G3631 of the wrath ^G2372 of God ^G2316, which is mixed ^G2767 [fn]in full ^G194 strength ^G194 in the cup ^G4221 of His rage ^G3709, and he will be tormented ^G928 with fire ^G4442 and [fn]brimstone ^G2303 in ^G1799 the ^G1799 presence ^G1799 of ^G1799 the holy ^G40 angels ^G32 and in ^G1799 the ^G1799 presence ^G1799 of ^G1799 the Lamb ^G721. 11 And the smoke ^G2586 of their torment ^G929 goes ^G305 up ^G305 forever ^G165 and ever ^G165; they have ^G2192 no ^G3756 rest ^G372 day ^G2250 and night ^G3571, those ^G3588 who worship ^G4352 the beast ^G2342 and his image ^G1504, and [fn]whoever ^G1487 G5100 receives ^G2983 the mark ^G5480 of his name ^G3686.” 12 Here ^G5602 is the perseverance ^G5281 of the saints ^G40 who keep ^G5083 the commandments ^G1785 of God ^G2316 and [fn]their faith ^G4102 in Jesus ^G2424.

13 And I heard ^G191 a voice ^G5456 from heaven ^G3772, saying ^G3004, “Write ^G1125, ‘Blessed ^G3107 are the dead ^G3498 who die ^G599 in the Lord ^G2962 from now ^G737 on!’” “Yes ^G3483,” says ^G3004 the Spirit ^G4151, “so ^G2443 that they may rest ^G373 from their labors ^G2873, for their deeds ^G2041 follow ^G190 with them.”

Reaping the Earth’s Harvest

14 Then ^G2532 I looked ^G3708, and behold ^G2400, a white ^G3022 cloud ^G3507, and sitting ^G2521 on the cloud ^G3507 was one ^G3664 like ^G3664 [fn]a son ^G5207 of man ^G444, having ^G2192 a golden ^G5552 crown ^G4735 on His head ^G2776 and a sharp ^G3691 sickle ^G1407 in His hand ^G5495.

15 And another ^G243 angel ^G32 came ^G1831 out ^G1831 of the sanctuary ^G3485, crying ^G2896 out ^G2896 with a loud ^G3173 voice ^G5456 to Him who sits ^G2521 on the cloud ^G3507, “[fn]Put ^G3992 in Your sickle ^G1407 and reap ^G2325, for the hour ^G5610 to reap ^G2325 has come ^G2064, because ^G3754 the harvest ^G2326 of the earth ^G1093 [fn]is ripe ^G3583.” 16 Then ^G2532 He who sits ^G2521 on the cloud ^G3507 [fn]swung ^G906 His sickle ^G1407 over ^G1909 the earth ^G1093, and the earth ^G1093 was reaped ^G2325.

17 And another ^G243 angel ^G32 came ^G1831 out ^G1831 of the sanctuary ^G3485 which ^G3588 is in heaven ^G3772, and he also ^G2532 had ^G2192 a sharp ^G3691 sickle ^G1407. 18 Then ^G2532 another ^G243 angel ^G32, the one who has ^G2192 authority ^G1849 over ^G1909 fire ^G4442, came ^G1831 out ^G1831 from the altar ^G2379; and he called ^G5455 with a loud ^G3173 voice ^G5456 to him who had ^G2192 the sharp ^G3691 sickle ^G1407, saying ^G3004, “[fn]Put ^G3992 in your sharp ^G3691 sickle ^G1407 and gather ^G5166 the clusters ^G1009 [fn]from the vine ^G288 of the earth ^G1093, because ^G3754 her grapes ^G4718 are ripe ^G187.” 19 So ^G2532 the angel ^G32 [fn]swung ^G906 his sickle ^G1407 to the earth ^G1093 and gathered ^G5166 the clusters from the vine ^G288 of the earth ^G1093, and threw ^G906 them into the great ^G3173 wine ^G3025 press ^G3025 of the wrath ^G2372 of God ^G2316. 20 And the wine ^G3025 press ^G3025 was trodden ^G3961 outside ^G1855 the city ^G4172, and blood ^G129 came ^G1831 out ^G1831 from the wine ^G3025 press ^G3025, up to the horses’ ^G2462 bridles ^G5469, [fn]for a distance ^G575 of [fn]1,600 ^G5507 G1812 stadia ^G4712.
