1I looked, and there in front of me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion. He had 144,000 people with him, and they had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.
2I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters and loud thunder. The sound I heard was like the music of harps being played.
3Then everyone sang a new song in front of the throne and the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who’d been rescued from the earth.
4They hadn’t committed sexual sins; they’d kept themselves pure. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among human beings as a first offering to God and the Lamb.
5They weren’t found guilty of lying or of doing anything else wrong.
6Then I saw another angel flying high in the air. He came to announce the never-ending good news to everyone on earth—to every nation, tribe, language, and race.
7In a loud voice he said, “Show respect for God and give him glory, because the time has come for him to judge. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the springs of water.”
8A second angel followed him and said, “ ‘Fallen! Babylon the Great has fallen!’ This is the city that made all the nations drink the strong wine of her terrible sins.”
9A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its statue and receives its mark on their forehead or their hand,
10they too will drink the wine of God’s great anger! His wine has been poured full strength into the cup of his anger. They will be burned with flaming sulfur, and the holy angels and the Lamb will witness their punishment.
11The smoke of their terrible suffering will rise for ever and ever. Day and night, there will be no rest for anyone who worships the beast and its statue or who receives the mark of its name.”
12This should encourage God’s people, who obey his commands, to be very patient and remain faithful to Jesus.
13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die as believers in the Lord from now on.”
“Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labor, and they’ll be rewarded for what they’ve done.”
14I looked, and there in front of me was a white cloud. Someone who looked “like a son of man” was sitting on the cloud, and he was wearing a gold crown on his head. In his hand was a sharp, curved sickle for cutting crops.
15Then another angel came out of the temple and called out in a loud voice to the one who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle and cut the grain. The time has come to do that, because the earth is ready to be harvested.”
16So the one who was sitting on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and it was harvested.
17Another angel came out of the temple in heaven. He also had a sharp sickle.
18Still another angel, who was in charge of the fire on the altar, came out and called out in a loud voice to the angel who had the sharp sickle. “Take your sharp sickle,” he said, “and gather the bunches of grapes from the earth’s vine, because they’re ripe.”
19So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered its grapes, and then he threw them into a huge winepress. The winepress stands for God’s anger.
20When the grapes were crushed in the winepress outside the city, blood flowed out and spread over the land for about 180 miles. It rose as high as a horse’s head.
