They were wearing linen clothes that were white and clean. 15 A sharp sword was coming out of his mouth.[a] He will use this sword to attack the people of all the nations of the world. Then he will rule them with strong authority. He will punish them like someone who stamps on grapes in a winepress. That will show God's great anger against them.

The Lord who rules over all lords’.[c]
