Revelation 16
|
And a great voice out of the house of God came to my ears, saying to the seven angels, Go, and let that which is in the seven vessels of the wrath of God come down on the earth. | And I heard a great voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, Go ye, and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God into the earth. |
And the first went, and let what was in his vessel come down on the earth; and it became an evil poisoning wound on the men who had the mark of the beast, and who gave worship to his image. | And the first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth; and it became a noisome and grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and that worshipped his image. |
And the second let what was in his vessel come out into the sea; and it became blood as of a dead man; and every living thing in the sea came to an end. | And the second poured out his bowl into the sea; and it became blood as of a dead man; and every living soul died, [even] the things that were in the sea. |
And the third let what was in his vessel come out into the rivers and the fountains of water; and they became blood. | And the third poured out his bowl into the rivers and the fountains of the waters; and it became blood. |
And the voice of the angel of the waters came to my ears, saying, True and upright is your judging, O Holy One, who is and was from all time: | And I heard the angel of the waters saying, Righteous art thou, who art and who wast, thou Holy One, because thou didst thus judge: |
For they made the blood of saints and prophets come out like a stream, and blood have you given them for drink; which is their right reward. | for they poured out the blood of the saints and the prophets, and blood hast thou given them to drink: they are worthy. |
And a voice came from the altar, saying, Even so, O Lord God, Ruler of all, true and full of righteousness is your judging. | And I heard the altar saying, Yea, O Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments. |
And the fourth let what was in his vessel come out on the sun; and power was given to it that men might be burned with fire. | And the fourth poured out his bowl upon the sun; and it was given unto it to scorch men with fire. |
And men were burned with great heat: and they said evil things against the name of the God who has authority over these punishments; and they were not turned from their evil ways to give him glory. | And men were scorched men with great heat: and they blasphemed the name of God who hath the power over these plagues; and they repented not to give him glory. |
And the fifth let what was in his vessel come out on the high seat of the beast; and his kingdom was made dark; and they were biting their tongues for pain. | And the fifth poured out his bowl upon the throne of the beast; and his kingdom was darkened; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, |
And they said evil things against the God of heaven because of their pain and their wounds; and they were not turned from their evil works. | and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores; and they repented not of their works. |
And the sixth let what was in his vessel come out on the great river Euphrates; and it became dry, so that the way might be made ready for the kings from the east. | And the sixth poured out his bowl upon the great river, the [river] Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way might by made ready for the kings that [come] from the sunrising. |
And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, like frogs. | And I saw [coming] out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, as it were frogs: |
For they are evil spirits, working signs; who go out even to the kings of all the earth, to get them together to the war of the great day of God, the Ruler of all. | for they are spirits of demons, working signs; which go forth unto the kings of the whole world, to gather them together unto the war of the great day of God, the Almighty. |
(See, I come as a thief. Happy is he who is watching and keeps his robes, so that he may not go unclothed, and his shame be seen.) | (Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walked naked, and they see his shame.) |
And they got them together into the place which is named in Hebrew Armageddon. | And they gathered them together into the place which is called in Hebrew Har-magedon. |
And the seventh let what was in his vessel come out on the air; and there came out a great voice from the house of God, from the high seat, saying, It is done. | And the seventh poured out his bowl upon the air; and there came forth a great voice out of the temple, from the throne, saying, It is done: |
And there were flames and voices and thunders; and there was a great earth-shock so that never, from the time when men were on the earth, had there been so great an earth-shock, so full of power. | and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since there were men upon the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty. |
And the great town was cut into three parts, and the towns of the nations came to destruction: and Babylon the great came into mind before God, to be given the cup of the wine of his wrath. | And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and Babylon the great was remembered in the sight of God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. |
And every island went in flight, and the mountains were seen no longer. | And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. |
And great drops of ice, every one about the weight of a talent, came down out of heaven on men: and men said evil things against God because of the punishment of the ice-drops; for it is very great. | And great hail, [every stone] about the weight of a talent, cometh down out of heaven upon men: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof is exceeding great. |
