Aabenbaringen 8
1 Og da det aabnede det syvende Segl, blev der Tavshed i Himmelen omtrent en halv Time.
And when he opened the seventh seal, silence occurred in heaven, like half an hour.
2 Og jeg saa de syv Engle, som staa for Guds Aasyn; og der blev givet dem syv Basuner.
And I saw the seven agents who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Og en anden Engel kom og stillede sig ved Alteret med et Guldrøgelsekar, og der blev givet ham megen Røgelse, for at han skulde føje den til alle de helliges Bønner paa Guldalteret foran Tronen.
And another agent came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer. And much incense was given to him, so that he would give with the prayers of all the sanctified upon the golden altar before the throne.
4 Og Røgen af Røgelsen steg op, med de helliges Bønner, fra Engelens Haand for Guds Aasyn.
And the vapor of the incense, with the prayers of the sanctified, ascended before God out of the agent's hand.
5 Og Engelen tog Røgelsekarret og fyldte det med Ild fra Alteret og kastede den paa Jorden; og der kom Torden og Røster og Lyn og Jordskælv.
And the agent who took the censer, also filled it from the fire of the altar, and cast it to the earth. And there occurred thunders, and voices, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 Og de syv Engle, som havde de syv Basuner, gjorde sig rede til at basune.
And the seven agents who have the seven trumpets prepared themselves so that they might sound.
7 Og den første basunede, og der kom Hagel og Ild, blandet med Blod, og blev kastet paa Jorden; og Tredjedelen af Jorden blev opbrændt, og alt grønt Græs opbrændtes.
And the first sounded, and there occurred hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth. And the third part of the earth was burnt up, and the third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8 Og den anden Engel basunede, og det var, som et stort brændende Bjerg blev kastet i Havet; og Tredjedelen af Havet blev til Blod
And the second agent sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was cast into the sea. And the third part of the sea became blood,
9 Og Tredjedelen af de Skabninger i Havet, som havde Liv, døde; og Tredjedelen af Skibene blev ødelagt.
and the third part of the creatures in the sea (those having lives) died, and the third part of the ships was destroyed.
10 Og den tredje Engel basunede, og fra Himmelen faldt der en stor Stjerne, brændende som en Fakkel, og den faldt paa Tredjedelen af Floderne og paa Vandkilderne.
And the third agent sounded, and a great star fell from the heaven burning like a torch, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the springs of the waters.
11 Og Stjernens Navn kaldes Malurt; og Tredjedelen af Vandene blev til Malurt, og mange af Menneskene døde af Vandene, fordi de vare blevne beske.
And the name of the star is called Wormwood oil. And the third part of the waters developed into wormwood oil, and many of the men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 Og den fjerde Engel basunede, og Tredjedelen af Solen og Tredjedelen af Maanen og Tredjedelen af Stjernerne blev ramt, saa at Tredjedelen af dem blev formørket, og Dagen mistede Tredjedelen af sit Lys og Natten ligesaa.
And the fourth agent sounded, and the third part of the sun was struck, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them would be darkened. And the day did not shine the third part of it, and likewise the night.
13 Og jeg saa, og jeg hørte en Ørn flyve midt oppe under Himmelen og sige med høj Røst: Ve, ve, ve dem, som bo paa Jorden, for de øvrige Basunrøster fra de tre Engle, som skulle basune.
And I looked, and I heard one eagle flying in mid-heaven, saying in a great voice, Woe, woe, woe, to those who dwell on the earth from the remaining sounds of the trumpet of the three agents who are going to sound.
