Revelation 13:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ And it was permitted to him to give a spirit to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast should speak and should cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

¹⁶ And he made all - both small and great, rich and poor, free and enslaved - receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads;

¹⁷ so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name.
