Revelation 16:12-21

12The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the 1great river, the Euphrates; and 2its water was dried up, so that 3the way would be prepared for the kings 4from the 5east. 13And I saw coming out of the mouth of the 6dragon, and out of the mouth of the 7beast, and out of the mouth of the 8false prophet, three 9unclean spirits like 10frogs; 14for they are 11spirits of demons, 12performing signs, which go out to the kings of the 13entire 14world, to 15gather them together for the war of the 16great day of God, the Almighty. 15(“Behold, 17I am coming like a thief. 18Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, 19so that he will not walk about naked and people will not see his shame.”) 16And they 20gathered them together to the place which 21in Hebrew is called 22Har-Magedon.

17Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon 23the air, and a 24loud voice came out of the 25 26temple from the throne, saying, “27It is done.” 18And there were flashes of 28lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was 29a great earthquake, 30such as there had not been since mankind came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty. 19 31The great city 32was split into three parts, and the cities of the 33nations fell. 34Babylon the great was 35remembered in the sight of God, to give her 36the cup of the wine of 37His fierce wrath. 20And 38every island fled, and no mountains were found. 21And 39huge 40hailstones, weighing about 41a talent each, came down from heaven upon people; and people 42blasphemed God because of the 43plague of the hail, because 44the hailstone plague was extremely 45severe.
