11 And the beast which was and is not, is himself also an eighth. And he is from[a] the seven. And he goes to destruction. 12 And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings[b] who did not-yet receive a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour[c]. 13 These have one purpose, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
