Revelation 16:5-11

5And I heard the angel of the waters saying, “1Righteous are You, 2who are and who were, O 3Holy One, because You 4judged these things; 6for they poured out 5the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them 6blood to drink. They 7deserve it.” 7And I heard 8the altar saying, “Yes, O 9Lord God, the Almighty, 10true and righteous are Your judgments.”

8The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon 11the sun, 12and it was given to it to scorch men with fire. 9Men were scorched with 13fierce heat; and they 14blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues, and they 15did not repent so as to 16give Him glory.

10Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the 17throne of the beast, and his kingdom became 18darkened; and they gnawed their tongues because of pain, 11and they 19blasphemed the 20God of heaven because of their pains and their 21sores; and they 22did not repent of their deeds.
