Revelation 8
8
The Seventh Seal
1When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, so that he might #8:3 Lit giveadd it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. 4And the smoke of the incense went up #8:4 Or forwith the prayers of the saints, out of the angel’s hand, before God. 5Then the angel #8:5 Lit has takentook the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.
The Seven Trumpets
6And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them.
7And the first sounded, and there came hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth; and a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
8And the second angel sounded, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and a third of the sea became blood, 9and a third of the creatures which were in the sea—those which had life—died; and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10And the third angel sounded, and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of waters. 11And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12And the fourth angel sounded, and a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were struck, so that a third of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a third of it, and the night in the same way.
13Then I looked, and I heard #8:13 Lit one eaglean eagle flying in midheaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!”
