| 1Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them the wrath of God is complete. | 1Then I saw in heaven another marvelous event of great significance. Seven angels were holding the seven last plagues, which would bring God’s wrath to completion. |

And on it stood all the people who had been victorious over the beast and his statue and the number representing his name. They were all holding harps that God had given them. |

Just and true are Your ways, O King of the saints! | 3And they were singing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb: “Great and marvelous are your works, O Lord God, the Almighty.

| 4Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You, For Your judgments have been manifested.” | 4Who will not fear you, Lord, and glorify your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous deeds have been revealed.” The Seven Bowls of the Seven Plagues |
| 5After these things I looked, and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened. | 5Then I looked and saw that the Temple in heaven, God’s Tabernacle, was thrown wide open. |
| 6And out of the temple came the seven angels having the seven plagues, clothed in pure bright linen, and having their chests girded with golden bands. | 6The seven angels who were holding the seven plagues came out of the Temple.

| 8The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed. | 8The Temple was filled with smoke from God’s glory and power. No one could enter the Temple until the seven angels had completed pouring out the seven plagues. |
