Revelation 13:3-5

Worldwide English (New Testament)

³ One of its heads had a cut, bad enough to kill it. But the bad cut was healed. All the people on earth were much surprised and followed the beast.

⁴ They worshipped the dragon because he had given this power to the beast. And they worshipped the beast too. They said, `Who is like this beast? Who can fight against it?'

⁵ The beast was given a mouth that spoke proud words against God. It was given power to rule for forty-two months.
