1 Then I heard a loud
voice, which came from the Temple, saying to the seven
angels—‘Go and empty the seven bowls of the Wrath of God
upon the earth.’ note
2 The first angel went and emptied his bowl upon the
earth; and it turned to loathsome and painful sores upon all
who bore the brand of the Beast and who worshipped its
image. note
3 Then the second angel emptied his bowl upon the sea; and
it turned to blood like the blood of a corpse, and every living
thing died—everything in the sea. note
4 Then the third angel emptied his bowl upon the rivers and
springs of water; and it turned to blood. note ⪆⪆
5 And I heard
the Angel of the Waters saying—‘Righteous art thou, thou
who art and who wast, the Holy One, in inflicting this judgement;
note
6 for men shed the blood of Christ's People and of the
Prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink. It is
what they deserve.’ note ⪆⪆
7 And I heard the response from the
altar—‘Yes, O Lord, our God, the Almighty, true and
righteous are thy judgements.’ note
8 Then the fourth angel emptied his bowl upon the sun; and
he was permitted to scorch men with fire;
9 and men were
scorched by the intense heat. They blasphemed the Name of
God who controlled these Curses, yet they did not repent and
give him praise.
10 Then the fifth angel emptied his bowl upon the throne of the
-- --
Beast; and darkness fell upon its Kingdom. Men gnawed
their tongues for pain, note
11 and blasphemed the God of Heaven,
because of their pains and because of their sores; yet they did
not repent of what they had done. note
12 Then the sixth angel emptied his bowl upon the great river
Euphrates; and the water in the river was dried up, so
that the road for the Kings of the East might be made
ready. note ⪆⪆
13 And I saw three foul spirits, like frogs, come
from the mouth of the Dragon and from the mouth of the
Beast and from the mouth of the false Prophet. note
14 They are the
spirits of demons, and perform marvels; they go to kings all
over the world, to collect them for the battle on the Great
Day of Almighty God. note ⪆⪆
15 (‘I am coming like a thief!
Happy will he be who is on the watch, and keeps his clothing
at hand, so that he will not have to walk about unclothed and
let men see his nakedness.’) ⪆⪆
16 And the spirits collected
the kings at the place called in Hebrew ‘Har-Magedon.’ note
17 Then the seventh Angel emptied his bowl upon the
air. ⪆⪆(A loud voice came from the throne in the Temple;
it said ‘All is over.’) note ⪆⪆
18 There followed ‘flashes of lightning,
cries, and peals of thunder’; and there was a great earthquake,
such as had not occurred since man began to be upon
the earth—none so great; note
19 and the great City was torn in three,
and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon
the Great, and gave her the maddening wine-cup of his Wrath;
and every island vanished, note
20 and the mountains disappeared.
21 Great hailstones, a pound in weight, are falling upon men
from the heavens. And men blasphemed God because of the
Curse of the hail, for it was a very terrible Curse. note
