15 Now aout of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And bHe Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. cHe Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And aHe has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: bKING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
The Beast and His Armies Defeated
17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven, a“Come and gather together for the1 supper of the great God,
18 athat you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people,1 free and slave, both small and great.”
19 aAnd I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.
20 aThen the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and bthose who worshiped his image. cThese two were cast alive into the lake of fire dburning with brimstone.
21 And the rest awere killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. bAnd all the birds cwere filled with their flesh.
