Revelation 8
1AndG2532 whenG3753 he had openedG455 the seventhG3588G1442 sealG3588G4973, there wasG1096 silenceG4602 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772 aboutG5613 the space of half an hourG2256.
2AndG2532 I sawG3708 the sevenG3588G2033 angelsG32 whichG3739 stoodG2476 beforeG1799 GodG3588G2316; andG2532 to themG846 were givenG1325 sevenG2033 trumpetsG4536.
3AndG2532 anotherG243 angelG32 cameG2064 andG2532 stoodG2476 atG1909 the altarG3588G2379, havingG2192 a goldenG5552 censerG3031; andG2532 there was givenG1325 unto himG846 muchG4183 incenseG2368, thatG2443 he should offerG1325 it with the prayersG3588G4335 of allG3956 saintsG3588G40 uponG1909 the goldenG3588G5552 altarG3588G2379 which wasG3588 beforeG1799 the throneG3588G2362. 4AndG2532 the smokeG3588G2586 of the incenseG3588G2368, which came with the prayersG3588G4335 of the saintsG3588G40, ascended upG305 beforeG1799 GodG3588G2316 outG1537 of the angel’sG3588G32 handG5495. 5AndG2532 the angelG3588G32 tookG2983 the censerG3588G3031, andG2532 filledG1072 itG846 with fireG3588G4442 ofG1537 the altarG3588G2379, andG2532 castG906 it intoG1519 the earthG3588G1093: andG2532 there wereG1096 voicesG5456, andG2532 thunderingsG1027, andG2532 lightningsG796, andG2532 an earthquakeG4578.
6AndG2532 theG3588G32 sevenG2033 angelsG3588G32 which hadG3588G2192 theG3588G4536 sevenG2033 trumpetsG3588G4536 preparedG2090 themselvesG1438 toG2443 soundG4537. 7The firstG3588G4413 angelG32 soundedG4537, andG2532 there followedG1096 hailG5464 andG2532 fireG4442 mingledG3396 with bloodG129, andG2532 they were castG906 uponG1519 the earthG3588G1093: andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of treesG3588G1186 was burnt upG2618, andG2532 allG3956 greenG5515 grassG5528 was burnt upG2618. 8AndG2532 the secondG3588G1208 angelG32 soundedG4537, andG2532 as it wereG5613 a greatG3173 mountainG3735 burningG2545 with fireG4442 was castG906 intoG1519 the seaG3588G2281: andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the seaG3588G2281 becameG1096 bloodG129; 9AndG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the creaturesG3588G2938 which wereG3588 inG1722 the seaG3588G2281, and hadG3588G2192 lifeG5590, diedG599; andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the shipsG3588G4143 were destroyedG1311. 10AndG2532 the thirdG3588G5154 angelG32 soundedG4537, andG2532 there fellG4098 a greatG3173 starG792 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772, burningG2545 as it wereG5613 a lampG2985, andG2532 it fellG4098 uponG1909 the third partG3588G5154 of the riversG3588G4215, andG2532 uponG1909 the fountainsG3588G4077 of watersG5204; 11AndG2532 the nameG3588G3686 of the starG3588G792 is calledG3004 WormwoodG894: andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the watersG3588G5204 becameG1096 wormwoodG1519G894; andG2532 manyG4183 menG444 diedG599 ofG1537 the watersG3588G5204, becauseG3754 they were made bitterG4087. 12AndG2532 the fourthG3588G5067 angelG32 soundedG4537, andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the sunG3588G2246 was smittenG4141, andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the moonG3588G4582, andG2532 the third partG3588G5154 of the starsG3588G792; so asG2443 the third partG3588G5154 of themG846 was darkenedG4654, andG2532 the dayG3588G2250 shoneG5316 notG3361 for a third partG3588G5154 of itG846, andG2532 the nightG3588G3571 likewiseG3668. 13AndG2532 I beheldG3708, andG2532 heardG191 anG1520 angelG32 flyingG4072 throughG1722 the midst of heavenG3321, sayingG3004 withG5456 a loudG3173 voiceG5456, WoeG3759, woeG3759, woeG3759, to the inhabitersG3588G2730 ofG1909 the earthG3588G1093 by reasonG1537 of the otherG3588G3062 voicesG5456 of the trumpetG3588G4536 of the threeG3588G5140 angelsG32, which are yetG3588G3195 to soundG4537!
