Revelation 16

The Seven Bowls of the Wrath of God

1And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the bowls of the wrath of God upon the earth.

2And the first went, and poured out his bowl upon the earth; and there fell foul and evil sores upon the men who had the mark of the beast, and upon them who worshiped his image.

3And the second angel poured out his bowl upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man; and every living thing died in the sea.

4And the third angel poured out his bowl upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.

5And I heard the angel of the waters say, You are righteous, O Lord, who is, and was, and shall be, because you have judged thus.

6For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink; for they are deserving of it.

7And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments.

8And the fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun; and power was given unto it to scorch men with fire.

9And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, who has power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

10And the fifth angel poured out his bowl upon the throne of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

11And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

12And the sixth angel poured out his bowl upon the great river Euphrates; and its water was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

13And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

14For they are the spirits of demons, working miracles, who go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

15Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

16And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

17And the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

18And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

19And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

20And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

21And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceedingly great.
