rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his
wife hath made herself ready.

Chapter 19
Praise our God, all
ye his servants
1 And after these
things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia;
Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: 2 for
true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the
great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged
the blood of 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 servants, and ye that fear
him, both small and great. 6 And I heard as it were
the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the
voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent
reigneth. 7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give
honour to him: for the marriage 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 white: for the fine linen is the
righteousness of saints.
9 And he saith unto
me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage
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 Jesus: 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 righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12 His
eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many
crowns; 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 heaven followed him upon white horses, 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 winepress of the fierceness and wrath
of Almighty God. 16 And he hath on his vesture
and on his thigh a name written, KING 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 together unto the
supper of the great God; 18 that ye may eat the
flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the
flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men,
both free and bond, both small and great. 19 And
I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered
together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his
army. 20 And the beast was taken, and with him the
false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them
that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.
These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. 21 And
the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse,
which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were
filled with their flesh.
