Revelation 19 - Easy To Read Version

¹ After this I heard what sounded like many, many people in heaven. The people were saying:

² His judgments are true and right.\par Our God has punished the prostitute. {\cf2\super [144]} \par She is the one who made the earth evil\par with her sexual sin.\par God has punished the prostitute\par to pay her for the blood (death)\par of his servants.”\par

³ Those people in heaven also said:

⁴ Then the 24 elders {\cf2\super [145]} and the four living things bowed down. They worshiped God, who sits on the throne. They said:

⁵ Then a voice came from the throne. The voice said:

⁶ Then I heard something that sounded like many, many people. It sounded like the noise of flooding water and like loud thunder. The people were saying:

⁷ Let us rejoice and be happy\par and give God glory!\par Give God glory, because the wedding\par of the Lamb (Jesus) has come.\par And the Lamb’s bride (the church)\par has made herself ready.\par

⁸ Fine linen was given to the bride\par for her to wear.\par The linen was bright and clean.”\par

⁹ Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Those people who are invited to the wedding meal of the Lamb are blessed (happy)!” Then the angel said, “These are the true words of God.”

¹⁰ Then I bowed down before the angel’s feet to worship him. But the angel said to me, “Don’t \{worship me\}! I am a servant like you and your brothers who have the truth of Jesus. So worship God! Because the truth of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. {\cf2\super [148]} ”

¹¹ Then I saw heaven open. There before me was a white horse. The rider on the horse is called Faithful and True. He is right in his judging and in making war.

¹² His eyes are like burning fire. He has many crowns on his head. He has a name written on him, but he is the only one who knows the name. No other person knows the name.

¹³ He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood. His name is the Word of God.

¹⁴ The armies of heaven were following him. They were riding white horses. They were dressed in fine linen, white and clean.

¹⁵ A sharp sword comes out of the rider’s mouth. He will use this sword to defeat the nations. He will rule the nations with a rod of iron. He will squeeze \{the grapes\} in the winepress of the terrible anger of God the All-Powerful.

¹⁶ On his robe and on his leg was written this name:

¹⁷ Then I saw an angel standing in the sun. The angel said with a loud voice to all the birds flying in the sky, “Come together for the great supper of God.

¹⁸ Come together so that you can eat the bodies of rulers and army commanders and famous men. Come to eat the bodies of the horses and their riders and the bodies of all people—free, slave, small, and great.”

¹⁹ Then I saw the animal and the rulers of the earth. Their armies were gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army.

²⁰ But the animal was captured. Also the false prophet {\cf2\super [149]} was captured. This false prophet was the one who did the miracles {\cf2\super [150]} for the animal. The false prophet had used these miracles to trick the people who had the mark of the animal and worshiped his idol. {\cf2\super [151]} The false prophet and the animal were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.

²¹ Their armies were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse. All the birds ate these bodies until the birds were full.
