¹Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.

¹I vidjeh: iz mora Zvijer izlazi sa deset rogova i sedam glava; na rogovima joj deset kruna, na glavama bogohulna imena.

²The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.

²Ta Zvijer što je vidjeh bijaše nalik na leoparda, noge joj kao medvjeđe, usta kao usta lavlja. Zmaj joj dade svoju silu i prijestolje i vlast veliku.

³One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.

³Jedna joj glava bijaše kao na smrt zaklana, ali joj se smrtna rana zaliječila. Sva se zemlja, začuđena, zanijela za Zvijeri

⁴They worshiped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

⁴i svi se pokloniše Zmaju koji dade takvu vlast Zvijeri. Pokloniše se i Zvijeri govoreći: "Tko je kao Zvijer! Tko bi smio ratovati s njom?"

⁵A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.

⁵I dana su joj usta da govori drskosti i hule i dana joj je vlast da to čini četrdeset i dva mjeseca.

⁶He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his dwelling, those who dwell in heaven.

⁶I ona otvori usta da huli Boga, da huli ime njegovo, njegov Šator i nebesnike.

⁷It was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.

⁷I dano joj je da se zarati sa svecima i da ih pobijedi. Dana joj je vlast nad svakim plemenom i pukom i jezikom i narodom:

⁸All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

⁸da joj se poklone svi pozemljari, oni kojima ime nije zapisano u knjizi života zaklanog Jaganjca, od postanka svijeta.

⁹If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

⁹Tko ima uho, nek posluša!

¹⁰If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. TR reads “If anyone leads into captivity, into captivity he goes. If anyone will kill with the sword, he must be killed with a sword.” instead of “If anyone has captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is with the sword, he must be killed.” Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.

¹⁰Je li tko za progonstvo, u progonstvo će ići! Je li tko za mač, da bude pogubljen, mačem će biti pogubljen! U tom je postojanost i vjera svetih.

¹¹I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon.

¹¹I vidjeh: druga jedna Zvijer uzlazi iz zemlje, ima dva roga poput jaganjca, a govori kao Zmaj.

¹²He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.

¹²Vrši svu vlast one prve Zvijeri, u njenoj nazočnosti. Prisiljava zemlju i sve pozemljare da se poklone prvoj Zvijeri kojoj ono zacijeli smrtna rana.

¹³He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.

¹³Čini znamenja velika: i oganj spušta s neba na zemlju naočigled ljudi.

¹⁴He deceives my own NU omits “my own” people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast; saying to those who dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.

¹⁴Tako zavodi pozemljare znamenjima koja joj je dano činiti u nazočnosti Zvijeri: svjetuje pozemljarima da načine kip Zvijeri koja bijaše udarena mačem, ali preživje.

¹⁵It was given to him to give breath to it, to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.

¹⁵I dano joj je udahnuti život kipu Zvijeri te kip Zvijeri progovori i poubija sve koji se god ne klanjaju kipu Zvijeri.

¹⁶He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or on their foreheads;

¹⁶Ona postiže da se svima - malima i velikima, bogatima i ubogima, slobodnjacima i robovima - udari žig na desnicu ili na čelo,

¹⁷and that no one would be able to buy or to sell, unless he has that mark, the name of the beast or the number of his name.

¹⁷i da nitko ne mogne kupovati ili prodavati osim onog koji nosi žig s imenom Zvijeri ili s brojem imena njezina.

¹⁸Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.

¹⁸U ovome je mudrost: u koga je uma, nek odgoneta broj Zvijeri. Broj je to jednog čovjeka, a broj mu je šest stotina šezdeset i šest.
