Revelation 13:2-10 (EHV)

2 The beast that I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth was like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power, his throne, and great authority. 3 One of his heads seemed to have been fatally wounded, [1] but his fatal wound was healed.

And the whole world that followed the beast was amazed. 4 They worshipped the dragon because he gave authority to the beast. They worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can go to war against him?” 5 The beast was also given a mouth that spoke arrogant and blasphemous things. He was given authority to do these things for forty-two months.

6 The beast opened his mouth to speak blasphemies against God: to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and [2] those who dwell in heaven. 7 He was also given permission to wage war against the saints and to overcome them, as well as authority over every tribe and people and language and nation. 8 All those who make their home on the earth will worship the beast—those whose names have [3] not been written from the beginning of the world in the Book of Life, which belongs to the Lamb that was slain. [4]

9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear:

10 If anyone is to be imprisoned, [5] he is going to be imprisoned.

Here patient endurance and confidence are needed by the saints.
