Revelation 19:11-21

The Coming of Christ

11 And I saw 1heaven opened, and behold, a 2white horse, and He who sat on it is called 3Faithful and True, and in 4righteousness He judges and wages war.
12 His 5eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many 6diadems; and He has a 7name written on Him which no one knows except Himself.
13 He is clothed with a 8robe dipped in blood, and His name is called 9The Word of God.
14 And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in 10fine linen, 11white and clean, were following Him on white horses.
15 12From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that 13with it He may strike down the nations, and He will 14rule them with a rod of iron; and 15He treads the wine * press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty.
16 And on His robe and on His thigh He has 16a name written, "17KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."
17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to 18all the birds which fly in 19midheaven, "20Come, assemble for the great supper of God,
18 so that you may 21eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the flesh of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, 22both free men and slaves, and 23small and great."
19 And I saw 24the beast and 25the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war against Him who 26sat on the horse and against His army.

Doom of the Beast and False Prophet

20 And the beast was seized, and with him the 27false prophet who 28performed the signs 29in his presence, by which he 30deceived those who had received the 31mark of the beast and those who 32worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the 33lake of 34fire which burns with brimstone.
21 And the rest were killed with the sword which 35came from the mouth of Him who 36sat on the horse, and 37all the birds were filled with their flesh.
