Revelation 13:11-14:8 NASB
11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon. 12 He exercises all the
authority of the first beast in his presence. And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men. 14 And he deceives those who dwell
on the earth because of the signs which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image
to the beast who had the wound of the sword and has come to life.

to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, 17 and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who
has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of
the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.
Chapter 14

Father written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder, and the voice
which I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps. 3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures
and the elders; and no one could learn the song except the one hundred and forty-four thousand who had been purchased from the earth. 4 These are the
ones who have not been defiled with women, for they have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have
been purchased from among men as first fruits to God and to the Lamb. 5 And no lie was found in their mouth; they are blameless.

and the earth and sea and springs of waters.”
