2And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power and his seat and great authority.
3And I saw one of his heads as if it had been given a death-wound; and his death-wound was made well: and all the earth was wondering at the beast.
4And they gave worship to the dragon, because he gave authority to the beast; and worshipping the beast, they said, Who is like the beast? and who is able to go to war with him?
5And there was given to him a mouth to say words of pride against God; and there was given to him authority to go on for forty-two months.
6And his mouth was open to say evil against God, and against his name and his Tent, even against those who are in heaven.
7And it was given to him to make war on the saints and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and language and nation.
8And all who are on the earth will give him worship, everyone whose name has not been from the first in the book of life of the Lamb who was put to death.
