Apocalypsis 8
1 Et cum aperuisset sigillum septimum, factum est silentium in caelo, quasi media hora.
When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 Et vidi septem Angelos stantes in conspectu Dei: et datae sunt illis septem tubae.
I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Et alius Angelus venit, et stetit ante altare habens turibulum aureum: et data sunt illi incensa multa, ut daret de orationibus sanctorum omnium super altare aureum, quod est ante thronum Dei.
Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him to offer up, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar which was before the throne.
4 Et ascendit fumus incensorum de orationibus sanctorum de manu Angeli coram Deo.
The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand.
5 Et accepit Angelus turibulum aureum, et implevit illud de igne altaris, et misit in terram, et facta sunt tonitrua, et voces, et fulgura, et terraemotus magnus.
The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it on the earth. There followed thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 Et septem Angeli, qui habebant septem tubas, praeparaverunt se ut tuba canerent.
The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
7 Et primus Angelus tuba cecinit, et facta est grando, et ignis, mista in sanguine, et missum est in terram, et tertia pars terrae combusta est, et tertia pars arborum concremata est, et omne foenum viride combustum est.
And the first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. One third of the earth was burnt up, and one third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8 Et secundus Angelus tuba cecinit: et tamquam mons magnus igne ardens missus est in mare, et facta est tertia pars maris sanguis,
The second angel sounded, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,
9 et mortua est tertia pars creaturae eorum, quae habebant animas in mari, et tertia pars navium interiit.
and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed.
10 Et tertius Angelus tuba cecinit: et cecidit de caelo stella magna, ardens tamquam facula, et cecidit in tertiam partem fluminum, et in fontes aquarum:
The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of the waters.
11 et nomen stellae dicitur Absinthium; et facta est tertia pars aquarum in absinthium: et multi hominum mortui sunt de aquis, quia amarae factae sunt.
The name of the star is called "Wormwood." One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 Et quartus Angelus tuba cecinit: et percussa est tertia pars solis, et tertia pars lunae, et tertia pars stellarum, ita ut obscuraretur tertia pars eorum, et diei non luceret pars tertia, et noctis similiter.
The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars; so that one third of them would be darkened, and the day would not shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way.
13 Et vidi, et audivi vocem unius aquilae volantis per medium caeli, dicentis voce magna: Vae, vae, vae habitantibus in terra de ceteris vocibus trium Angelorum, qui erant tuba canituri.
I saw, and I heard an eagle, flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe. Woe. Woe for those who dwell on the earth, because of the other voices of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound."
