Exegesis
The object phrase tēn exousian tou prōtou thēriou pāsan {τὴν ἐξουσίαν τοῦ πρώτου θηρίου πᾶσαν | tḕn exousían tou prṓtou thēríou pâsan} is fronted to emphasize the full extent of authority granted to the second beast.
A second poiei introduces tēn gēn kai tous en autē katoikountas {τὴν γῆν καὶ τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ κατοικοῦντας | tḕn gē̂n kaì toùs en autē̂ katoikoûntas}, treating the earth and its inhabitants as a single affected group.
In context — Revelation 13:12
And it exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and it makes the earth and those who dwell in it worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
