15: 3.

For all the nations will come and worship before thee.

For thy good deeds are made known."

After this I saw

And the Sanctuary of the Tent of the Witness

in heaven

Was opened.

And there came out of the Sanctuary

The Seven Angels who had the Seven Plagues,
Clothed with linen pure and bright

And girded about their breasts with gold girdles.

And one of the four Living Creatures

Gave to the Seven Angels Seven Gold Bowls
Full of the wrath of God

Who is living forever and ever.

And the Sanctuary was filled with smoke,

From the splendor of God,

And from his power.

And no one could go into the Sanctuary

Till the Seven Plagues of the Seven Angels
Should be finished.

And I heard a loud voice out of the Sanctuary
Saying to the Seven Angels:

"Go and pour out the Seven Bowls
Of the wrath of God on the earth."

(First Bowl-Judgment Above.)

And the first went and poured out his Bowl

On the earth.

And it became a bad and painful sore

15: 8.

On the men who had the mark of the Wildbeast, And who worshipped its Image.

(Second Bowl.)

And the second poured out his Bowl

Into the sea.

And it became blood like a dead man's ;
And every living thing in the sea died.

(Third Bowl.)

And the third poured out his Bowl

Into the rivers and the springs of the waters,

And it became blood.

And I heard the Angel of the waters,

Saying:

16:5.

"Good art thou,

The Present and the Past,—
The Holy one,

Because thou didst thus judge.

For they poured out the blood of devoted ones,
And Prophets,

And blood hast thou given them to drink.
They are worthy."

And I heard the Altar saying:

"Yes, Lord God,

The All-Ruler,

True and good are thy judgments."

(Fourth Bowl.)

And the fourth poured out his Bowl

On the sun

And it was given authority to scorch men with fire.

And men were scorched with great heat.

And they blasphemed the name of the God

Who has the authority over these plagues.

And they did not reform

And do him honor.

(Fifth Bowl-Judgment Beneath.)

And the fifth poured out his Bowl

On the throne of the Wildbeast,

And its kingdom was darkened;

And they gnawed their tongues for pain, And they blasphemed the God of heaven, Because of their pains and their sores. And they did not reform from their deeds.

16: 10.

(Sixth Bowl-Judgment at Euphrates.)

And the sixth poured out of his Bowl
On the great river, the Euphrates;
And its water was dried up

So that the way might be made ready

For the kings who are coming from the east. And I saw coming out of the mouth of the Dragon, And out of the mouth of the Wildbeast,

And out of the mouth of the False Prophet,

Three unclean spirits like frogs.

For they are spirits of demons, doing signs.

And they keep going out to the kings of the whole world,

To gather them together to the war

Of the great Day of God, the All-Ruler.

16: 15.

(Voice of Christ.)

"Lo, I am coming like a thief.

Blessed is he who continues to watch,

And keeps his clothes,

Lest he goes about naked,

And they see his shame."

And they gathered them together into the place Called in Hebrew, Har-magedon.

(The Seventh Bowl--Prelude to First Act.)

And the seventh poured out his Bowl

On the air,

And a loud voice came out of the Sanctuary
From the Throne, saying:

"It is done."

And there were lightnings and voices

And thunders.

And there was a great earthquake

Such as was not

Since there were men on the earth,

So great an earthquake, so mighty.

And the Great City was divided into three parts,
And the cities of the nations fell.

And Babylon the Great was remembered
In the sight of God,
