Ḥazon (Revelation) 19
19
1And after this I heard a loud voice of a great crowd in the heaven, saying, “Halleluyah! Deliverance and esteem and respect and power to יהוה our Elohim!
2“Because true and righteous are His judgments,#Psa. 19:9 because He has judged the great whore who corrupted the earth with her whoring. And He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.”#Deu. 32:43
3And a second time they said, “Halleluyah! And her smoke rises up forever and ever!”
4And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped Elohim who sat on the throne, saying, “Amĕn! Halleluyah!”
5And a voice came from the throne, saying, “Praise our Elohim, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!”#Psa. 115:13
6And I heard as the voice of a great crowd, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying, “Halleluyah, for יהוה Ěl Shaddai reigns!
7“Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him praise, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife prepared herself.”
8And to her it was given to be dressed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteousnesses of the set-apart ones.
9And he said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who have been called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’ ” And he said to me, “These are the true words of Elohim.”
10And I fell at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, “See, do not do it! I am your fellow servant, and of your brothers who possess the witness of יהושע. Worship Elohim! For the witness of יהושע is the spirit of prophecy.”
11And I saw the heaven opened, and there was a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Trustworthy and True, and in righteousness He judges and fights.#See Acts 10:42
12And His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns, having a Name that had been written, which no one had perceived except Himself –#See Rev. 2:17
13and having been dressed in a robe dipped in blood – and His Name is called: The Word of יהוה.#See John 1:1; John 1:14
14And the armies in the heaven, dressed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.
15And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should smite the nations. And He shall shepherd them with a rod of iron.#Psa. 2:9 And He treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Ěl Shaddai.
16And on His robe and on His thigh#“Thigh”, but possibly flag. See Explanatory Notes "Thigh" He has a name written: SOVEREIGN OF SOVEREIGNS AND MASTER OF MASTERS.
17And I saw one messenger standing in the sun, and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven, “Come and gather together for the supper of the great Elohim,
18to eat the flesh of sovereigns, and the flesh of commanders, and the flesh of strong ones, and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, both small and great.”
19And I saw the beast, and the sovereigns of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to fight Him who sat on the horse and His army.
20And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he led astray those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshipped his image. The two were thrown alive into the lake of fire burning with sulphur.
21And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.

Revelation 19
19
Heaven Rejoices
1After this I heard what seemed to be the roar of a great multitude of voices, saying:
“Hallelujah!
Salvation and glory and power to our God!
2All his judgments are right and true,
For he has judged the great prostitute
who corrupted the earth with her sexual immorality.
He has avenged on her the blood of his loving servants.”
3And again they shouted:
“Hallelujah!
The smoke from her destruction goes up
forever and ever!”
4The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell facedown and worshiped God, who sits on the throne, saying in agreement:
“Amen! Hallelujah!”
5Then a voice came from the throne, saying:
“Praise our God, all you his loving servants
and all who reverence and honor him—
those who are lowly and those who are great!”
6Then I heard what seemed to be the thunderous voice of a great multitude, like the sound of a massive waterfall and mighty peals of thunder, crying out:
“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns! # 19:6 The Aramaic adds a clause that is missing in the Greek: “the One and Only for all.”
7Let us rejoice and exalt him and give him glory,
because the wedding celebration of the Lamb has come. # 19:7 The imagery of the wedding celebration of the Lamb reinforces and expresses the beautiful intimacy that Jesus shares with his beloved bride. See Hos. 2:19; Eph. 5:26–27. This wedding feast is more than a future event; it is an experience we taste of now as we live as one with the Bridegroom (1 Cor. 6:17; 2 Tim. 4:22).
And his bride has made herself ready. # 19:7 The Aramaic can be translated “And his bride loves him!”
8Fine linen, shining bright and clear,
has been given to her to wear,
and the fine linen represents
the righteous deeds of his holy believers.” # 19:8 The Aramaic can be translated “and the fine linens are the blessings of the holy ones.”
9Then the angel said to me, “Write these words: Wonderfully blessed are those who are invited to feast at the wedding celebration of the Lamb!” And then he said to me, “These are the true words of God.”
10At this I fell facedown at the angel’s feet to worship him, but he stopped me and said, “Don’t do this! For I am only a fellow servant with you and one of your brothers who clings to what Jesus testifies. Worship God. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” # 19:10 That is, the essence of prophecy.
The Bridegroom-King on the White Horse
11Then I saw heaven opened, and suddenly a white horse appeared. The name of the one riding it was Faithful and True, # 19:11 See Rev. 1:5; 3:14. and with pure righteousness he judges and rides to battle. 12He wore many regal crowns, # 19:12 Jesus has absolute sovereignty over every nation and every heart. and his eyes were flashing like flames of fire. He had a secret name inscribed on him that’s known only to himself. # 19:12 See Rev. 3:12. 13He wore a robe dipped in blood, and his title is called the Word of God. 14Following him on white horses were the armies of heaven, wearing white fine linen, pure and bright. 15A sharp sword came from his mouth with which to conquer # 19:15 Or “to strike down.” the nations, and he will shepherd them with an iron scepter. # 19:15 See Ps. 2:9; Rev. 2:27 and the first footnote; 12:5. He will trample out the wine in the winepress of the wrath # 19:15 Or “strong passion.” of God. 16On his robe and on his thigh he had inscribed a name: King of kings and Lord of lords.
The Wild Beast Defeated
17Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, shouting to all the flying birds of the sky, “Come and gather for God’s great supper! 18Come and devour the flesh of the kings, generals, and soldiers, the flesh of horses and their riders, the flesh of all people, slave or free, lowly or famous.”
19Then I saw the wild beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to wage war against the rider on the white horse and against his armies. 20The wild beast was captured, as was the false prophet who had performed miracle-signs in his presence. (It was by these miracle-signs that he had deceived those with the mark of the wild beast and those who worshiped its image.) The wild beast and the false prophet were both thrown alive into the lake of fire burning with sulfur, 21and their armies were killed by the sharp sword that came from the mouth of the rider on the white horse. And all the birds gorged themselves with their flesh.
