And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 13 of Revelation. A beast rises from the sea with ten horns and seven heads, combining features of the beasts in Daniel 7. The dragon gives it his power, throne, and great authority. One of its heads appears mortally wounded, but the wound is healed, causing worldwide admiration. The scene constructs a parody of authority and life: the beast imitates characteristics belonging to the true rule of God and the Lamb. The worship it receives reveals that the conflict is deeply religious, not merely political.

Und ich sah seiner Häupter eines, als wäre es tödlich wund; und seine tödliche Wunde ward heil. Und der ganze Erdboden verwunderte sich des Tieres
Y vi una de sus cabezas como herida de muerte, y la llaga de su muerte fue curada: y se maravilló toda la tierra en pos de la bestia.
Y vi una de sus cabezas como si hubiera sido degollada, pero su herida mortal fue sanada; y toda la tierra, maravillada, siguió a la bestia.
Et je vis l'une de ses têtes comme blessée à mort; mais sa blessure mortelle fut guérie. Et toute la terre était dans l'admiration derrière la bête.
Ed io vidi una delle sue teste come ferita a morte; ma la sua piaga mortale fu sanata; e tutta la terra si maravigliò dietro alla bestia.
E vi uma das suas cabeças como ferida de morte, e a sua chaga mortal foi curada; e toda a terra se maravilhou após a besta.
我看見獸的七個頭中,有一個似乎受了致命傷,那傷卻醫好了。全地的人都很驚訝,跟從了那隻獸。
