The Two Witnesses

1 Then I was given aa reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood, saying, b“Rise and measure the temple of God, the altar, and those who worship there.  
2 But leave out athe court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, bfor it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will ctread the holy city underfoot for dforty-two months.  
3 And I will give power to my two awitnesses, band they will prophesy cone thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”  
4 These are the atwo olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the1 God of the earth.  
5 And if anyone wants to harm them, afire proceeds from their mouth and devours their enemies. bAnd if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this manner.  
6 These ahave power to shut heaven, so that no rain falls in the days of their prophecy; and they have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they desire.  

The Witnesses Killed

7 When they afinish their testimony, bthe beast that ascends cout of the bottomless pit dwill make war against them, overcome them, and kill them.  
8 And their dead bodies will lie in the street of athe great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, bwhere also our Lord was crucified.  
9 aThen those from the peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations1 will see their dead bodies three-and-a-half days, band not allow their dead bodies to be put into graves.  
10 aAnd those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, make merry, band send gifts to one another, cbecause these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.  

The Witnesses Resurrected

11 aNow after the three-and-a-half days bthe breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them.  
12 And1 they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” aAnd they ascended to heaven bin a cloud, cand their enemies saw them.  
13 In the same hour athere was a great earthquake, band a tenth of the city fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid cand gave glory to the God of heaven.
