Revelation 16:2-11

2SoG2532 the firstG4413 angel wentG565 and pouredG1632 out his bowlG5357 12on the earthG1093; and it becameG1096 a loathsomeG2556 and malignantG4190 3soreG1668 on the 4peopleG444 5who hadG2192 the markG5480 of the beastG2342 and who worshipedG4352 his imageG1504.

3The secondG1208 angel pouredG1632 out his bowlG5357 6into the seaG2281, and it becameG1096 bloodG129 likeG5613 that of a deadG3498 manG3498; and everyG3956 livingG2222 7thingG5590 in the seaG2281 diedG599.

4ThenG2532 the thirdG5154 angel pouredG1632 out his bowlG5357 into the 8riversG4215 and the springsG4077 of watersG5204; and they 9becameG1096 bloodG129. 5And I heardG191 the angelG32 of the watersG5204 sayingG3004, “10RighteousG1342 are You, 11who are and whoG3588 were, O 12HolyG3741 OneG3741, becauseG3754 You 13judgedG2919 theseG3778 thingsG3778; 6for they pouredG1632 out 14the bloodG129 of saintsG40 and prophetsG4396, and You have givenG1325 them 15bloodG129 to drinkG4095. They 16deserveG514 it.” 7And I heardG191 17the altarG2379 sayingG3004, “YesG3483, O 18LordG2962 GodG2316, the AlmightyG3841, 19trueG228 and righteousG1342 are Your judgmentsG2920.”

8The fourthG5067 angel pouredG1632 out his bowlG5357 upon 20the sunG2246, 21and it was givenG1325 to it to scorchG2739 menG444 with fireG4442. 9MenG444 were scorchedG2739 with 22fierceG3173 heatG2738; and they 23blasphemedG987 the nameG3686 of GodG2316 who hasG2192 the powerG1849 overG1909 theseG3778 plaguesG4127, and they 24did not repentG3340 so as to 25giveG1325 Him gloryG1391.

10ThenG2532 the fifthG3991 angel pouredG1632 out his bowlG5357 on the 26throneG2362 of the beastG2342, and his kingdomG932 becameG1096 27darkenedG4656; and they gnawedG3145 their tonguesG1100 becauseG1537 of painG4192, 11and they 28blasphemedG987 the 29GodG2316 of heavenG3772 becauseG1537 of their painsG4192 and their 30soresG1668; and they 31did not repentG3340 of their deedsG2041.
