Revelation 16:2-21

2SoG2532 the firstG4413 angel wentG565 and pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 1on the earthG1093; and a harmfulG2556 and painfulG4190 2soreG1668 3afflictedG1096G1909 the peopleG444 4who hadG2192 the markG5480 of the beastG2342 and who worshipedG4352 his imageG1504.

3The secondG1208 angel pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 5into the seaG2281, and it becameG1096 bloodG129 likeG5613 that of a deadG3498 manG3498; and everyG3956 livingG2222 6thingG5590 in the seaG2281 diedG599.

4ThenG2532 the thirdG5154 angel pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 into the 7riversG4215 and the springsG4077 of watersG5204; and they 8becameG1096 bloodG129. 5And I heardG191 the angelG32 of the watersG5204 sayingG3004, “9RighteousG1342 are You, 10the One who is and who was, O 11HolyG3741 OneG3741, becauseG3754 You 12judgedG2919 theseG3778 thingsG3778; 6for they pouredG1632 outG1632 13the bloodG129 of saintsG40 and prophetsG4396, and You have givenG1325 them 14bloodG129 to drinkG4095. They 15deserveG514 it.” 7And I heardG191 16the altarG2379 sayingG3004, “YesG3483, 17LordG2962 GodG2316, the AlmightyG3841, 18trueG228 and righteousG1342 are Your judgmentsG2920.”

8And the fourthG5067 angel pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 upon 19the sunG2246, 20and it was givenG1325 power to scorchG2739 peopleG444 with fireG4442. 9And the peopleG444 were scorchedG2739 with 21fierceG3173 heatG2738; and they 22blasphemedG987 the nameG3686 of GodG2316 who hasG2192 the powerG1849 overG1909 theseG3778 plaguesG4127, and they 23did not repentG3340 so as to 24giveG1325 Him gloryG1391.

10And the fifthG3991 angel pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 on the 25throneG2362 of the beastG2342, and his kingdomG932 becameG1096 26darkenedG4656; and they gnawedG3145 their tonguesG1100 becauseG1537 of painG4192, 11and they 27blasphemedG987 the 28GodG2316 of heavenG3772 becauseG1537 of their painG4192 and their 29soresG1668; and they 30did not repentG3340 of their deedsG2041.

12The sixthG1623 angel pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 on the 31greatG3173 riverG4215, the EuphratesG2166; and 32its waterG5204 was driedG3583 up, soG2443 thatG2443 33the wayG3598 would be preparedG2090 for the kingsG935 34from the 35eastG395G2246. 13And I sawG3708 coming out of the mouthG4750 of the 36dragonG1404, and out of the mouthG4750 of the 37beastG2342, and out of the mouthG4750 of the 38falseG5578 prophetG5578, threeG5140 39uncleanG169 spiritsG4151 likeG5613 40frogsG944; 14for they are 41spiritsG4151 of demonsG1140, 42performingG4160 signsG4592, whichG3739 goG1607 outG1607 to the kingsG935 of the 43entireG3650 44worldG3625, to 45gatherG4863 them togetherG4863 for the warG4171 of the 46greatG3173 dayG2250 of GodG2316, the AlmightyG3841. 15(“BeholdG2400, 47I am comingG2064 likeG5613 a thiefG2812. 48BlessedG3107 is the one who staysG1127 awakeG1127 and keepsG5083 his clothesG2440, 49soG2443 thatG2443 he will not walkG4043 aboutG4043 nakedG1131 and people will not seeG991 his shameG808.”) 16And they 50gatheredG4863 them togetherG4863 to the placeG5117 which 51in HebrewG1447 is calledG2564 52Har-MagedonG717.

17ThenG2532 the seventhG1442 angel pouredG1632 outG1632 his bowlG5357 upon 53the airG109, and a 54loudG3173 voiceG5456 cameG1831 outG1831 of the 5556templeG3485 from the throneG2362, sayingG3004, “57It is doneG1096.” 18And there were flashesG796 ofG796 58lightningG796 and soundsG5456 and pealsG1027 ofG1027 thunderG1027; and there was 59a greatG3173 earthquakeG4578, 60suchG3634 as there had not beenG1096 sinceG575G3739 mankindG444 cameG1096 to be upon the earthG1093, soG5082 greatG3173 an earthquakeG4578 was it, and soG3779 mightyG3173. 1961The greatG3173 cityG4172 62was splitG1096 into threeG5140 partsG3313, and the citiesG4172 of the 63nationsG1484 fellG4098. 64BabylonG897 the greatG3173 was 65rememberedG3403 inG1799 theG1799 sightG1799 ofG1799 GodG2316, to giveG1325 her 66the cupG4221 of the wineG3631 of 67His fierceG2372 wrathG3709. 20And 68everyG3956 islandG3520 fledG5343, and noG3756 mountainsG3735 were foundG2147. 21And 69hugeG3173 70hailstonesG5464, weighingG5006 aboutG5613 71aG5006 talentG5006 each, cameG2597 downG2597 from heavenG3772 upon peopleG444; and peopleG444 72blasphemedG987 GodG2316 becauseG1537 of the 73plagueG4127 of the hailG5464, becauseG3754 74the hailstone plagueG4127 was extremelyG4970 75severeG3173.
