Rev 14:4

Rev 14:4These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they [fn]have kept themselves chaste. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been purchased from among men as first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

Rev 14:11

Rev 14:11“And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and [fn]whoever receives the mark of his name.”

Rev 14:12

Rev 14:12Here is the [fn]perseverance of the [fn]saints who keep the commandments of God and [fn]their faith in Jesus.

Rev 14:13

Rev 14:13And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Write, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on!’” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “so that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow with them.”

The Reapers

Rev 14:14

Rev 14:15

Rev 14:15And another angel came out of the [fn]temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “[fn]Put in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth [fn]is ripe.”

Rev 14:16Then He who sat on the cloud [fn]swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.
