Chapter 14 of Revelation—New American Standard Bible (NASB)

  1. ¶ Then I looked, and behold, 1the Lamb was standing on 2Mount Zion, and with Him 3one hundred and forty-four thousand, having 4His name and the 5name of His Father written 6on their foreheads.
  2. And I heard a voice from heaven, like 7the sound of many waters and like the 8sound of loud thunder, and the voice which I heard was like the sound of 9harpists playing on their harps.
  3. And they *[a]sang 10a new song before the throne and before the 11four living creatures and the 12elders; and 13no one could learn the song except the 14one hundred and forty-four thousand who had been 15purchased from the earth.
  4. 16These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they [b]have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who 17follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been 18purchased from among men 19as first fruits to God and to the Lamb.
  5. And 20no lie was found in their mouth; they are 21blameless.
  6. ¶ And I saw another angel flying in 22midheaven, having 23an eternal gospel to preach to 24those who [c]live on the earth, and to 25every nation and tribe and tongue and people;
  7. and he said with a loud voice, “26Fear God, and 27give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who 28made the heaven and the earth and sea and 29springs of waters.”
  8. ¶ And another angel, a second one, followed, saying, “[d]30Fallen, fallen is 31Babylon the great, she who has 32made all the nations drink of the 33wine of the [e]passion of her immorality.”
  9. ¶ Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone 34worships the beast and his 35image, and receives a 36mark on his forehead or on his hand,
  10. he also will drink of the 37wine of the wrath of God, which is mixed [f]in full strength 38in the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with 39fire and [g]brimstone in the presence of the 40holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
  11. And the 41smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; 42they have no rest day and night, those who 43worship the beast and his 44image, and [h]whoever receives the 45mark of his name.”
  12. Here is 46the [i]perseverance of the [j]saints who 47keep the commandments of God and [k]48their faith in Jesus.
  13. ¶ And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Write, ‘49Blessed are the dead who 50die in the Lord from now on!’” “Yes,” 51says the Spirit, “so that they may 52rest from their labors, for their 53deeds follow with them.”
  14. ¶ Then I looked, and behold, a 54white cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one 55like [l]a son of man, having a golden 56crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand.
  15. And another angel 57came out of the [m]temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “[n]58Put in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the 59harvest of the earth [o]is ripe.”
  16. Then He who sat on the cloud [p]swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.
  17. ¶ And another angel 60came out of the [q]temple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle.
  18. Then another angel, 61the one who has power over fire, came out from 62the altar; and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “[r]63Put in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters [s]from the vine of the earth, 64because her grapes are ripe.”
  19. So the angel [t]swung his sickle to the earth and gathered the clusters from the vine of the earth, and threw them into 65the great wine press of the wrath of God.
  20. And 66the wine press was trodden 67outside the city, and 68blood came out from the wine press, up to the horses’ bridles, [u]for a distance of [v]two hundred miles.

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
