The Revelation to John, Chapter 16
{16:1} I heard a loud voice out of the temple, saying to the seven
angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the
earth!"
{16:2} The first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth, and
it became a harmful and evil sore on the people who had the mark of
the beast, and who worshiped his image.
{16:3} The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it
became blood as of a dead man. Every living thing in the sea died.
{16:4} The third poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of
water, and they became blood. {16:5} I heard the angel of the waters
saying, "You are righteous, who are and who were, you Holy One,
because you have judged these things. {16:6} For they poured out the
blood of the saints and the prophets, and you have given them blood to
drink. They deserve this." {16:7} I heard the altar saying, "Yes, Lord
God, the Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments."
{16:8} The fourth poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given
to him to scorch men with fire. {16:9} People were scorched with great
heat, and people blasphemed the name of God who has the power over
these plagues. They didn't repent and give him glory.
{16:10} The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast,
and his kingdom was darkened. They gnawed their tongues because of the
pain, {16:11} and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their
pains and their sores. They didn't repent of their works.
{16:12} The sixth poured out his bowl on the great river, the
Euphrates. Its water was dried up, that the way might be made ready
for the kings that come from the sunrise. {16:13} 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, something like
frogs; {16:14} for they are spirits of demons, performing signs; which
go forth to the kings of the whole inhabited earth, to gather them
together for the war of that great day of God, the Almighty.
{16:15} "Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and
keeps his clothes, so that he doesn't walk naked, and they see his
shame." {16:16} He gathered them together into the place which is
called in Hebrew, Megiddo.
{16:17} The seventh poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice
came forth out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, "It
is done!" {16:18} There were lightnings, sounds, and thunders; and
there was a great earthquake, such as was not since there were men on
the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty. {16:19} The great city
was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell.
Babylon the great was remembered in the sight of God, to give to her
the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. {16:20} Every
island fled away, and the mountains were not found. {16:21} Great
hailstones, about the weight of a [1>]talent,[<1] came down out of the
sky on people. People blasphemed God because of the plague of the
hail, for this plague is exceedingly severe.
