Revelation 13 (WEBP)

[1] Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
[2] The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
[3] One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.
[4] They worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
[5] A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
[6] He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.
[7] It was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
[8] All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
[9] If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
[10] If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
[11] I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
[12] He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
[13] He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
[14] He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
[15] It was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.
[16] He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands or on their foreheads;
[17] and that no one would be able to buy or to sell unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
[18] Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.

Revelation 13:1 NU reads he stood
Revelation 13:10 TR reads “If anyone leads into captivity, into captivity he goes. If anyone will kill with the sword, he must be killed with a sword.” instead of “If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed.”
Revelation 13:14 NU omits “my own”

Young’s Literal Translation

Revelation 13 (YLT)

[1] And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and I saw out of the sea a beast coming up, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon its horns ten diadems, and upon its heads a name of evil speaking,
[2] and the beast that I saw was like to a leopard, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as the mouth of a lion, and the dragon did give to it his power, and his throne, and great authority.
[3] And I saw one of its heads as slain to death, and its deadly stroke was healed, and all the earth did wonder after the beast,
[4] and they did bow before the dragon who did give authority to the beast, and they did bow before the beast, saying, ‘Who is like to the beast? who is able to war with it?’
[5] And there was given to it a mouth speaking great things, and evil-speakings, and there was given to it authority to make war forty-two months,
[6] and it did open its mouth for evil-speaking toward God, to speak evil of His name, and of His tabernacle, and of those who in the heaven tabernacle,
[7] and there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them, and there was given to it authority over every tribe, and tongue, and nation.
[8] And bow before it shall all who are dwelling upon the land, whose names have not been written in the scroll of the life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world;
[9] if any one hath an ear-let him hear:
[10] if any one a captivity doth gather, into captivity he doth go away; if any one by sword doth kill, it behoveth him by sword to be killed; here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
[11] And I saw another beast coming up out of the land, and it had two horns, like a lamb, and it was speaking as a dragon,
[12] and all the authority of the first beast doth it do before it, and it maketh the land and those dwelling in it that they shall bow before the first beast, whose deadly stroke was healed,
[13] and it doth great signs, that fire also it may make to come down from the heaven to the earth before men,
[14] and it leadeth astray those dwelling on the land, because of the signs that were given it to do before the beast, saying to those dwelling upon the land to make an image to the beast that hath the stroke of the sword and did live,
[15] and there was given to it to give a spirit to the image of the beast, that also the image of the beast may speak, and that it may cause as many as shall not bow before the image of the beast, that they may be killed.
[16] And it maketh all, the small, and the great, and the rich, and the poor, and the freemen, and the servants, that it may give to them a mark upon their right hand or upon their foreheads,
[17] and that no one may be able to buy, or to sell, except he who is having the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
[18] Here is the wisdom! He who is having the understanding, let him count the number of the beast, for the number of a man it is, and its number is six hundred and sixty six.
