Chap. XI. S. Iohn measuring the Temple, 3 heareth of tvvo vvitnesses that shal preache: 7 vvhom the beast c&obar;ming vp from sea shal kil. 12 but they rising againe ascend into heauen, 13 and seuen thousand persons are slaine vvith an earthquake: 15 and as the sound of the seuenth Angel, the foure and tvventie seniors giue praise and thankes to God.

-- --

1   And there vvas giuen me a reede like vnto a rodde: and it vvas said to me, Arise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that adore in it.

2   but the court vvhich is vvithout the temple, cast forth, & measure not that: because it is giuen to the Gentiles, & they shal treade vnder foote the holy citie note two and fourtie monethes:

3   and I vvil giue to09Q1534 my tvvo vvitnesses, and they shal prophecie a thousand tvvo hundred sixtie daies, clothed vvith sacke-clothes.

4   These are the two oliue trees and the tvvo candlestickes that stand in the sight of the Lord of the earth.

5   And if any man vvil hurt them, fire shal come forth out of their mouthes, and shal deuoure their enemies. and if any man vvil hurt them: so must he be slaine.

6   These haue power to shut heauen, that it raine not in the daies of their prophecie: and they haue povver ouer the vvaters to turne them into bloud, and to strike the earth vvith al plague as often as they vvil.

7   And vvhen they shal haue finished their testimonie: the note beast vvhich ascended from the depth, shal make vvarre against them, and shal ouercome them, and kil them.

8   And their bodies shal lie in the streates of the note great citie, vvhich is called spiritually Sodom and Ægypt, vvhere their Lord also vvas crucified.

9   And there shal of tribes, and peoples, and tonges, and Gentiles, see their bodies for three daies and a halfe: and they shal not suffer their bodies to be laid in monuments.

10   and the inhabitants of the earth note shal be glad vpon them, and make merie: and shal send giftes one to an other, because these tvvo prophets tormented them that dvvelt vpon the earth.

11   And after three daies and a halfe, the spirit of life from God entred into them. And they stoode vpon their feete, and great feare fel vpon them that savv them.

12   And they heard a loud voice from heauen saying to them, Come vp hither. And they vvent vp into heauen in a cloude: and their enemies savv them.

13   And in that houre there vvas made a great earthquake: and the tenth part of the citie fel: and there vvere slaine in the earthquake names of men seuen thousand: and the rest vvere cast into a feare, and gaue glorie to the God of heauen.

14   The second vvoe is gone: and behold the third vvoe vvil come quickly.

15   And the seuenth Angel sounded with

-- --

a trompet: and there vvere made loude voices in heauen saying, note The kingdom of this vvorld is made our Lords & his Christs, and he shal reigne for euer and euer. Amen.

16   And the foure and tvventie seniours vvhich sitte on their seates in the sight of God, fel on their faces, and adored God,

17   saying: Vve thanke thee Lord God omnipotent, vvhich art, and vvhich vvast, and vvhich shalt come: because thou hast receiued thy great povver, and hast reigned.

18   And the Gentiles vvere angrie, and thy vvrath is come, and the time of the dead, to be iudged, and note to render revvard to thy seruants the prophets and sainctes, and to them that feare thy name, litle and great, and to destroy them that haue corrupted the earth.

19   And the temple of God vvas opened in heauen: and the arke of his testament vvas seen in his temple, and there vvere made lightenings, and voices, and an earthquake and greate haile.
