⁶ Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude,^(A) like the roar of rushing waters^(B) and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:

(Fine linen stands for the righteous acts^(J) of God’s holy people.)

⁹ Then the angel said to me,^(K) “Write this:^(L) Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!”^(M) And he added, “These are the true words of God.”^(N)

¹⁷ And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds^(A) flying in midair,^(B) “Come,^(C) gather together for the great supper of God,^{(D) 18} so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people,^(E) free and slave,^(F) great and small.”^(G)

¹⁹ Then I saw the beast^(H) and the kings of the earth^(I) and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse^(J) and his army. ²⁰ But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet^(K) who had performed the signs^(L) on its behalf.^(M) With these signs he had deluded^(N) those who had received the mark of the beast^(O) and worshiped its image.^(P) The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake^(Q) of burning sulfur.^{(R) 21} The rest were killed with the sword^(S) coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse,^(T) and all the birds^(U) gorged themselves on their flesh.
