| 8:1 |
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was
silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. |
| 8:2 |
And I saw the seven angels which stood before God;
and to them were given seven trumpets. |
| 8:3 |
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having
a golden censer; and there was given unto him much
incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all
saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. |
| 8:4 |
And the smoke of the incense, which came with the
prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the
angel's hand. |
| 8:5 |
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with
fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there
were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an
earthquake. |
| 8:6 |
And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets
prepared themselves to sound. |
| 8:7 |
The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and
fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the
earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all
green grass was burnt up. |
| 8:8 |
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great
mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the
third part of the sea became blood; |
| 8:9 |
And the third part of the creatures which were in the
sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships
were destroyed. |
| 8:10 |
And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great
star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell
upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains
of waters; |
| 8:11 |
And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the
third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men
died of the waters, because they were made bitter. |
| 8:12 |
And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of
the sun 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 day shone not for a third part of
it, and the night likewise. |
| 8:13 |
And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the
midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, 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! |
