(KJV) Revelation 81

<< Revelation 7 Revelation 9 >>

⥃The Seventh Seal

[1] And2 when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence3 in heaven about the space of half an hour. [2] And I saw the seven angels4 which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets5. [3] And another6 angel came and stood7 at the altar, having8 a golden censer; and there was given unto him much9 incense, that he should offer [it] with the prayers10 of all saints upon the golden11 altar which was before the throne. [4] And the smoke of the incense, [which came] with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand.12 [5] And the angel took the censer, and filled13 it with fire of the altar, and cast [it] into14 the earth: an15d there16 were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.

⥃The First Four Trumpets

[6] And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.17 [7] The first angel sounded, and there followed hail18 and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast19 upon the earth: and the third20 part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. [8] And the second angel sounded, and as21 it were a great mountain burning22 with fire was cast into the sea: and the third23 part of the sea became blood; [9] And the third part of the creatures24 which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships25 were destroyed. [10] And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great26 star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains27 of waters; [11] And the name of the star is called Wormwood28: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many29 men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. [12] And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun30 was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day31 shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. [13] And I beheld, and heard an angel flying32 through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe33, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
