REV 17:8

8 The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up ◄from the underworld/from the deep dark pit►. [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] ◄from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began►.
