I heard a loud voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth."

2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth, and there fell a sore and grievous wound upon men, who had the character of the beast; and upon them that adored the image thereof.

The first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth, and it became a harmful and evil sore on the people who had the mark of the beast, and who worshiped his image.

3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea, and there came blood as it were of a dead man; and every living soul died in the sea.

The second one poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood as of a corpse. And every living thing in the sea died.

5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying: Thou art just, O Lord, who art, and who wast, the Holy One, because thou hast judged these things:

I heard the angel of the waters saying, "You are righteous, who is and who was, the Holy One, because you have judged these things.

6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.

For they poured out the blood of the kadoshim and the prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve this."

7 And I heard another, from the altar, saying: Yea, O Lord God Almighty, true and just are thy judgments.

I heard the altar saying, "Yes, Lord God of hosts, true and righteous are your judgments."

8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun, and it was given unto him to afflict men with heat and fire:

The fourth poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given to him to scorch people with fire.

9 And men were scorched with great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God, who hath power over these plagues, neither did they penance to give him glory.

13 And I saw from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs.

I saw coming out of the mouth of the serpent, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, something like frogs;

14 For they are the spirits of devils working signs, and they go forth unto the kings of the whole earth, to gather them to battle against the great day of the Almighty God.

for they are spirits of demons, performing signs; which go forth to the kings of the whole inhabited earth, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God the Almighty.

15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

"Look, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he does not walk naked, and they see his shame."

16 And he shall gather them together into a place, which in Hebrew is called Armagedon.

He gathered them together into the place which is called in Hebrew, Har Megiddo.

17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial upon the air, and there came a great voice out of the temple from the throne, saying: It is done.
