Revelation 13:15-17

15 And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even speak and cause 1as many as do not 2worship the image of the beast to be killed.
16 And he causes all, 3the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a 4mark on their right hand or on their forehead,
17 and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the 5mark, either 6the name of the beast or 7the number of his name.
