< Revelation 8 >

1 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was a silence in heaven for about half an hour.
当羔羊打开第七封印时,天堂里有大约半个小时的沉默。。
2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
我看见站在上帝面前的七位天使,被赐予七枝号角。
3 Another angel came, holding a golden incense bowl, standing at the incense altar. Much incense was given to him so that he would offer it with the prayers of all the saints on the golden incense altar before the throne.
另一位天使来到,站在祭坛前,手拿金香炉。他被赐予许多香,加入所有圣徒的祈祷之中,放在宝座前的金坛上。
4 The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the angel's hand.
香散发的烟和众圣徒的祈祷,从天使手中一同升到上帝面前。
5 The angel took the incense bowl and filled it with fire from the altar. Then he threw it down to the earth, and there were crashes of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
天使拿着香炉,用圣坛上的火把其填满,然后扔到大地;于是就有惊雷、闪电和可怕的地震。
6 The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
然后拿着七枝号角的七位天使,做好吹号的准备。
7 The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there was hail and fire mixed with blood. It was thrown down onto the earth so that a third of it was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
第一位天使吹响他的号角,就有冰雹和混杂着血的火,投向大地。三分之一的大地被烧尽,三分之一的树被烧毁,所有的青草都被烧毁。
8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea became blood,
第二位天使也吹响号角,一座仿佛燃烧的大山被扔进大海,三分之一的海变成血。
9 a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
海中三分之一造物死去,三分之一船只被毁。
10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a huge star fell from the sky, blazing like a torch, on a third of the rivers and springs of water.
第三位天使吹响号角,一颗燃烧的巨大星辰从天上落下来,落入三分之一的江河和水的泉源之中。
11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the waters that became bitter.
这星名叫“苦堇。”三分之一的水变苦,因水变苦,许多人因为这水而被毒死。
12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, as well as a third of the moon and a third of the stars. So a third of them turned dark; a third of the day and a third of the night had no light.
第四位天使吹响号角,三分之一太阳、三分之一月亮、三分之一星辰都遭受到打击,于是三分之一的日月星都变黑,三分之一的白昼没有了光,夜晚也是如此。
13 I looked, and I heard an eagle that was flying overhead calling out with a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe, to those who live on the earth, because of the remaining trumpet blasts that are about to be sounded by the three angels.”
我看着,听见一只在天空中飞翔的鹰,大声说:“灾难!灾难!住在地上的人将迎来灾难!因为还有三位天使将要吹其他的号角。”
