¶ The .xi. Chapter. ¶ The temple is measured. The seconde wo is past.

A   And then was geuen me a rede, lyke vnto a rodd, ∧ it was sayde vnto me. Ryse ∧ meate the temple of God, ∧ þe; aulter, ∧ them þt; worshippe therin, ∧ the queer which is &wt; in þe; t&ebar;ple, cast out ∧ meate it not for it is geuen vnto the G&ebar;tyles, ∧ þe; holy cytye shall they treade vnder fote .xlii. monethes. And I wyll geue power vnto my two witnesses, ∧ they shall prophesy a thousande, two hundred ∧

lx. dayes, clothed in sacke clothe. These are two olyue trees, ∧ two candelstyckes, standynge before the God of the erth.

B   And yf eny man wyll hurt th&ebar;, fyre shall procede out of their mouthes, and consume their enemyes. And yf eny men wyll hurt them, thys wyse muste he be kylled. These haue power to shut heau&ebar;, that it rayne not in the dayes of their prophesying: and haue power ouer waters to turne them to bloude, and to smyte þe; erth with all maner plages, as often as they wyll.

And when they haue finysshed their testimony, the beast that cam out of þe; bottomlesse pyt, shall make warre agaynst them, ∧ shall ouercome them, ∧ kyll th&ebar;. And their bodyes shall lye in the stretes of the greate citye, which spritually is called Zodom and Egypte, where oure Lorde was crucyfyed. And they of the people ∧ kynredes, ∧ t&obar;ges, ∧ they of þe; nacy&obar;s, shall se their bodyes .iii. dayes and an halfe, ∧ shall not suffre their bodyes to be put in graues. And they that dwell vpon þe; erth, shall reioyce ouer them, and be glad, ∧ shall sende gyftes one to another, for these two prophetes vexed them that dwelt on the erth.

C   And after .iii. dayes ∧ an halfe, the sprete of lyfe from God, entred into them. And they stode vp vpon their fete, ∧ greate feare came vpon them whych sawe them. And they herde a greate voyce fr&obar; heauen, sayinge vnto them. Come vp hyther. And they ascended vp into heauen in a cloude, ∧ their enemyes sawe th&ebar;. And þe; same houre was ther a great erthquake, and the tenth parte of the cytye fell, and in the erthquake were slayne names of men seuen .M. and þe; remna&ubar;t were feared, and gaue glory to þe; God of heauen. The second woo is past, ∧ beholde, the thyrde woo wyll come anone.

D   And þe; seuenth Angell blewe, ∧ ther were made greate voyces in heauen, sayinge: the kyngdoms of this worlde are oure lordes, and his Christes, ∧ he shall raygne for euermore (Amen.) And the .xxiiii. elders, whych syt before God on their seates, fell vpon their faces, ∧ worshypped God, sayinge: we geue the th&abar;kes O Lord God almyghtye: whych arte ∧ wast, ∧ arte to come, for þu; haste receaued thy great myght, and hast raygned. And the nacy&obar;s were angry, and thy wrath is come, ∧ the tyme of þe; deed þt; they shuld be iudged and that þu; shuldest geue rewarde vnto thy seruauntes the Prophetes and Saynctes, ∧ to them þt; feare thy name small ∧ great ∧ shuldest destroye th&ebar;, which destroye þe; erth. And the t&ebar;ple of God was opened in heauen, ∧ ther was sene in his t&ebar;ple, þe; arcke of his testam&ebar;t, ∧ ther folowed lightnynges, and voyces, and th&obar;drynges and erthquake, and moch hayle.
