1I saw another great and marvelous sign in the sky:seven angels having the seven last plagues,for in them God’s wrath is finished.

2I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire,and those who overcame the beast,his image, and the number of his name,standing on the sea of glass,having harps of God.3They sang the song of Moses,the servant of God,and the song of the Lamb, saying,

“Great and marvelous are your works, Lord God, the Almighty!Righteous and true are your ways, you King of the nations.4Who wouldn’t fear you, Lord,and glorify your name?For you only are holy.For all the nations will come and worship before you.For your righteous acts have been revealed.”

1Sing to the Lord a new song,for he has done marvelous things!His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

2The Lord has made known his salvation.He has openly shown his righteousness in the sight of the nations.3He has remembered his loving kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel.All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

7Let the sea roar with its fullness;the world, and those who dwell therein.8Let the rivers clap their hands.Let the mountains sing for joy together.

9Let them sing before the Lord,for he comes to judge the earth.He will judge the world with righteousness,and the peoples with equity.

12But before all these things,they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you,delivering you up to synagogues and prisons,bringing you before kingsand governors for my name’s sake.13It will turn out as a testimony for you.14Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,15for I will give you a mouth and wisdomwhich all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.16You will be handed over even by parents,brothers, relatives, and friends.They will cause some of you to be put to death.17You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake.18And not a hair of your head will perish.

19“By your endurance you will win your lives.
