Pahayag 8
1 Nang buksan ng Kordero ang ika-pitong selyo, naroon ang isang katahimikan sa langit nang mga kalahating oras.
When [Jesus], the [one who is like a] lamb, opened the seventh seal, there was no sound at all in heaven for (a very short time/about half an hour).
2 Pagkatapos nakita ko ang pitong anghel na siyang nakatayo sa harap ng Diyos. at pitong mga trumpeta ang ibinigay sa kanila.
I saw the seven angels who stand in front of God. A trumpet was given {([God/An angel]) gave a trumpet} to each one of them.
3 Isa pang anghel ang dumating, hawak ang isang gintong mangkok ng insenso, nakatayo sa altar. Maraming insenso ang ibinigay sa kaniya, sa gayon dapat niya itong ialay kasama ng mga panalangin ng lahat ng mga mananampalataya sa gintong altar sa harap ng trono.
Another angel, who had a golden container for burning incense, came and stood at the altar. [He was given] {[An angel] gave to him} a large quantity of incense, in order that he might offer it, with the prayers of all God’s people, upon the golden altar that is in front of [God’s] throne. [Then he burned this incense on the altar].
4 Ang usok ng insenso kasama ng mga panalangin ng mga mananampalataya, ay bumangon sa harap ng Diyos mula sa kamay ng anghel.
From the [pot in] the angel’s hand, the smoke of the incense, along with the prayers of God’s people, went up to God.
5 Kinuha ng anghel ang mangkok ng insenso at pinuno ito ng apoy mula sa altar. Pagkatapos ibinato niya ito sa lupa, at nagkaroon ng salpukan ng mga kulog, mga dagungdong, at mga kislap ng kidlat at isang lindol.
[In response], the angel took the golden incense burner and filled it with [coals of] fire from the altar. He threw [the contents of] the [MTY] incense burner onto the earth. Thunder sounded and rumbled, lightning was flashing, and the earth shook.
6 Ang pitong anghel na may mga trumpeta ay naghanda para patunigin sa kanila.
The seven angels, [each] of which had [one of] the seven trumpets, prepared to blow them.
7 Pinatunog ng unang anghel ang kaniyang trumpeta, at umulan ng yelo at apoy na may halong dugo. Ito ay inihagis pababa sa lupa kaya ang ikatlong bahagi nito ay natupok, ang ikatlong bahagi ng mga puno ay natupok, at ang lahat ng mga damong berde ay natupok.
When the first angel blew his trumpet, hail and fire mixed with blood poured down onto the earth. [As a result], a third of [everything on the surface of] the land was burned up {[the fire] burned up a third of [everything on the surface of] the land}. A third of the trees were also burned up {It also burned up a third of the trees}, and [a third of] all the green grass was burned up.
8 Pinatunog ng ikalawang anghel ang kaniyang trumpeta, at isang bagay na parang isang napakalaking bundok na nasusunog ng apoy ang itinapon sa dagat. Ang ikatlong bahagi ng dagat ay naging dugo,
When the second angel blew his trumpet, something that was like a huge burning mountain fell into the ocean. [As a result], a third of the ocean became [red like] [MTY] blood,
9 ang ikatlong bahagi ng buhay na mga nilalang sa tubig ay namatay, at ang ikatlong bahagi ng mga barko ay nasira.
a third of the living creatures in the ocean died, and a third of the ships [in the ocean] were destroyed.
10 Pinatunog ng ikatlong anghel ang kaniyang trumpeta, at isang napakalaking bituin ang nahulog mula sa himpapawid, nagliliyab tulad ng isang sulo, sa ikatlong bahagi ng mga ilog at mga bukal na tubig.
When the third angel blew his trumpet, a huge star, which was burning like a torch, fell from the sky into a third of the rivers and into [a third of] the springs.
11 Ang pangalan ng bituin ay Kapaitan. Ang ikatlong bahagi ng tubig ay naging mapait, at maraming mga tao ang namatay mula sa tubig na naging mapait.
The name of the star is Bitterness. [As a result], the water in a third [of the rivers and springs] became bitter, and many people died from [drinking] the water because it had become bitter.
12 Pinatunog ng ika-apat na anghel ang kaniyang trumpeta, at ang ikatlong bahagi ng araw ay hinampas, gayun din ang ikatlong bahagi ng buwan, at ikatlo ng mga bituin. Kaya ang ikatlo sa kanila ay nagdilim, ang ikatlo sa araw at ikatlo sa gabi ay nawalan ng liwanag.
When the fourth angel blew his trumpet, [God] struck the sun, the moon, and the stars, so that they lost a third of their light. The [sun] also did not shine during a third of the day, and [the moon and stars did not shine during a third] of the night.
13 Tumingin ako, at narinig ko na lumilipad ang isang agila sa gitna ng himapapawid, tumatawag ng may malakas na tinig, “Kaawa-awa, kaawa-awa, kaawa-awa, sila na nabubuhay sa lupa, dahil sa natitira pang mga pagsabog ng trumpeta na malapit ng patunugin ng tatlong anghel.”
As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying high in the sky, shouting in a loud voice, “Terrible things will happen to [rebellious] people who live on the earth! Terrible things will happen when the three remaining angels blow their trumpets! And they are about to blow them!”
