Revelation 13:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

9 Whoever has ears ought to hear these words.(A)
10 Anyone destined for captivity goes into captivity.
Anyone destined to be slain by the sword shall be slain by the sword.(B)

Such is the faithful endurance of the holy ones.

The Second Beast.[a] 11 Then I saw another beast come up out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb’s but spoke like a dragon.

Footnotes

  1. 13:11–18 The second beast is described in terms of the false prophets (cf. Rev 16:13; 19:20; 20:10) who accompany the false messiahs (the first beast); cf. Mt 24:24; Mk 13:22; 2 Thes 2:9; cf. also Dt 13:2–4. Christians had either to worship the emperor and his image or to suffer martyrdom.
