Revelation 13:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ They worshipped the dragon because it had given authority to the beast. They also worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can fight a war with it?” ⁵ The beast was allowed^[a] to speak arrogant and blasphemous things, and it was given authority for 42 months. ⁶ It uttered^[b] blasphemies against God, against his name, and against his residence,^[c] that is, against those who are living in heaven.
