\subsection{Revelation 8}
|
|
\VS{1} And when he opened the seventh seal, silence came to pass in heaven for
|
|
[about] [an] half-hour.
|
|
\VS{2} And I saw the seven angels who stood before God, and to
|
|
them were given seven trumpets.
|
|
\VS{3} And another angel came and stood upon
|
|
the altar having [a] golden censer, and to him was given much incense, in order
|
|
that he give [it] with the prayer of all the holy [ones] upon the golden altar before the throne.
|
|
\VS{4} And the smoke of the incense with the prayer of the holy
|
|
[ones] went up before God out of the hand of the angel,
|
|
\VS{5} and the angel took
|
|
the censer, and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw [it] upon the
|
|
land, and there came to pass thunders and sounds and lightnings and [an]
|
|
earthquake.
|
|
\VS{6} And the seven angels having the seven trumpets trumpets prepared themselves to trumpet.
|
|
\VS{7} And the first trumpeted, and there came to pass hail and
|
|
fire mingled with blood and they were thrown upon the land, and a third of
|
|
the trees were burnt-up, and every green grass was burnt-up.
|
|
\VS{8} And the
|
|
second angel trumpeted, and as [it were a] great mountain burning with fire was thrown
|
|
into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood,
|
|
\VS{9} and killed a third
|
|
of the creatures in the sea, those having psyche-lives\fnPsyche{}, and a third of the ships
|
|
were destroyed.
|
|
\VS{10} And the third angel trumpeted, and there fell from
|
|
heaven [a] great star burning as [a] lamp, and it fell upon a third of the rivers
|
|
and upon the wells of water.
|
|
\VS{11} And 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.
|
|
\VS{12} And the fourth angel
|
|
trumpeted, and a third of the sun was smitten, and a third of the moon and a
|
|
third of the stars, in order that a third of them be darkened, and the day
|
|
did not shine a third of it, and the night likewise.
|
|
\VS{13} And I saw, and
|
|
I heard one of the eagles flying in the mid-heaven saying with [a] loud voice:
|
|
Woe, woe, woe [to] those dwelling upon the land because of the rest of the
|
|
voices of the trumpets of the three angels [about] to be trumpeting.
