10 There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must (A)continue a short time. 11 The (B)beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to [a]perdition.

12 (C)“The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast. 14 (D)These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will (E)overcome them, (F)for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; (G)and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”
