Revelation 14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

1And I saw: and behold a lamb stood on Mount Sion, and with him n hundred forty-four thousand having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads. 2And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of great thunder: and the voice which I heard, was as of harpers, harping on their harps. 3And they sung as it were a new canticle, before the throne, and before the four animals, and the ancients, and no man could say the canticle, but those hundred forty-four thousand, who were purchased from the earth. 4These are they who were not defiled with women: for they are virgins. These follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were purchased from among men, the first-fruits to God and to the Lamb: 5And in their mouth there was found no lie: for they are without spot before the throne of God. 6And I saw another Angel flying through the midst of heaven, having the eternal gospel, to preach to them that sit upon the earth, and over every nation, and tribe, and tongue, and people: 7Saying with a loud voice: Fear the Lord, and give him honour, because the hour of his judgment is come: and adore ye him, who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and the fountains of waters. 8And another Angel followed, saying: She is fallen, she is fallen, that great Babylon, which made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. 9And the third Angel followed them, saying with a loud voice: If any man shall adore the beast, and his image, and receive his mark on his forehead, or in his hand: 10He also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mingled with pure wine, in the cup of his wrath, and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the sight of the holy Angels, and in the sight of the Lamb: 11And the smoke of their torments shall ascend up for ever and ever: neither have they rest day or night, who have adored the beast, and his image, and whosoever received the mark of his name. 12Here is the patience of the saints, who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. 13And I heard a voice from heaven, saying to me: write: Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord. From henceforth now, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours: for their works follow them. 14And I saw, and behold a white cloud: and upon the cloud one sitting like to the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. 15And another Angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat upon the cloud: Put in thy sickle, and reap, because the hour is come to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe. 16And he that sat on the cloud, put his sickle into the earth, and the earth was reaped. 17And another Angel came out of the temple, which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. 18And another Angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire: and he cried with a loud voice to him that had the sharp sickle, saying: Put in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vineyard of the earth: because the grapes thereof are ripe. 19And the Angel put his sharp sickle into the earth, and gathered the vineyard of the earth, and cast it into the great wine-press of the wrath of God: 20And the wine-press was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the wine-press, even up to the horses' bridles, for a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
