| |
| | Rev 8:1 | When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
| |
| | Rev 8:2 | I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
| |
| | Rev 8:3 | Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.
| |
| | Rev 8:4 | The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand.
| |
| | Rev 8:5 | The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it on the earth. There followed thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake.
| |
| | Rev 8:6 | The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
| |
| | Rev 8:7 | The first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. One third of the earth was burnt up,{TR omits "One third of the earth was burnt up"} and one third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
| |
| | Rev 8:8 | The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,
| |
| | Rev 8:9 | and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed.
| |
| | Rev 8:10 | The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of the waters.
| |
| | Rev 8:11 | The name of the star is called "Wormwood." One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
| |
| | Rev 8:12 | The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars; so that one third of them would be darkened, and the day wouldn't shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way.
| |
| | Rev 8:13 | I saw, and I heard an eagle,{TR reads "angel" instead of "eagle"} flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe! Woe! Woe for those who dwell on the earth, because of the other voices of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound!"
