Revelation 19:11-19 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

11. Then I saw the heavens opened, and there was a white horse; its rider was [called] “Faithful and True.” He judges and wages war in righteousness.

12. His eyes were [like] a fiery flame, and on his head were many diadems. He had a name inscribed that no one knows except himself.

13. He wore a cloak that had been dipped in blood, and his name was called the Word of God.

14. The armies of heaven followed him, mounted on white horses and wearing clean white linen.

15. Out of his mouth came a sharp sword to strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod, and he himself will tread out in the wine press the wine of the fury and wrath of God the almighty.

16. He has a name written on his cloak and on his thigh, “King of kings and Lord of lords.”

17. Then I saw an angel standing on the sun. He cried out [in] a loud voice to all the birds flying high overhead, “Come here. Gather for God’s great feast,

18. to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of military officers, and the flesh of warriors, the flesh of horses and of their riders, and the flesh of all, free and slave, small and great.”

19. Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered to fight against the one riding the horse and against his army.
