ire and brimstone in the
presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: (11)and
the smoke of their torment ascendeth for ever and ever: and they have
no respite day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and
whosoever receiveth the brand of his name. (12)Here is the patience of
the saints: here are they who keep the commandments of God, and the
faith of Jesus. (13)And I heard a voice from heaven saying to me,
Write, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord, from henceforward:
yea, saith the Spirit, that they may have rest from their labours; but
their works follow after them.

(14)And I saw, and, lo! a white cloud, and upon the cloud sat one like
to a son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a

sickle, and gather the bunches of the vine of the earth; for her
clusters are ripe. (19)And the angel thrust in his sickle upon the
earth, and gathered the grapes of the vine of the earth, and cast them
into the great winepress of the wrath of God. (20)And the wine-press
was trodden without the city, and blood issued from the wine-press, as

AND I saw another sign in the heaven, great and wonderful, seven angels
having the seven last plagues because by them is the wrath of God
completely executed. (2)And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled
with fire; and those who had obtained the victory over the beast, and
over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name
standing upon the sea of glass, holding the harps of God. (3)And they
sung the sacred ode of Moses the servant of the Lord, and the song of
the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, O Lord God
Almighty; righteous and true are thy ways, O King of saints. (4)Who
should not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy n
