The First Six Bowls of Wrath 1And I heard a great voice from the temple, saying to the seven angels, Go and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. 2And the first angel went forth and poured out his vial upon the earth, and there was a sore and grievous ulcer inflicted upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and upon them that worshipped his image. 3And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became blood like that of a dead man: and every living soul in the sea died. 4And the third angel poured out his vial on the rivers and on the fountains of waters; and they became blood. 5And I heard the angel of the waters saying, Righteous art Thou, O Lord, who art, and who ever wast; and who art holy, for Thou hast ordered these things: because they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, 6and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. 7And I heard another from the altar, saying, Yea, O Lord God almighty, true and just are thy judgements. 8And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given him to scorch men with fire. 9And men were scorched with great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God, who hath power over these plagues, and they repented not to give Him glory. 10And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was darkened, and they gnawed their tongues for pain. 11And they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores; and they repented not of their works. 12And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and its water was dried up, that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared.
13And 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 impure spirits like frogs:
14for they are the spirits of demons, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to bring them together to the battle of that great day of God almighty.
15 The Seventh Bowl of Wrath 17And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came forth 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 never was since there were men upon the earth, so violent and so great.
19And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came into remembrance before God, to give her the cup of the wine of his fierce wrath.
20And every island fled, and the mountains were not found.
21And great hail-stones of a talent weight came down from heaven upon men: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. Worsley's New Testament (1770) Digital Text Courtesy TheWord.net Bible Software. Section Headings Courtesy Berean Bible. |
