and their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city that symbolically[a] is called (A)Sodom and (B)Egypt, where their Lord was crucified. For three and a half days some from the peoples and tribes and languages and nations will gaze at their dead bodies and (C)refuse to let them be placed in a tomb, 10 and (D)those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and make merry and (E)exchange presents, because these two prophets (F)had been a torment to those who dwell on the earth. 11 But after the three and a half days (G)a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, (H)“Come up here!” And (I)they went up to heaven (J)in a cloud, and their enemies watched them. 13 And at that hour there was (K)a great earthquake, and (L)a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and (M)gave glory to (N)the God of heaven.
