Revelation 7–8

7 And after these things I saw afour angels standing on athe four corners of the earth, holding bthe four winds of the earth, fthat the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. And I saw another angel ascending from cthe east, having dthe seal of ethe living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, fHurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have dsealed the servants of our God gin their foreheads. hAnd I heard ithe number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed kan hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of lManasses were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand.

Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.

After this I beheld, and, lo, ma great multitude, which no man could number, nof all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with owhite robes, and ppalms in their hands; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, qSalvation to our God rwhich sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. 11 And all the angels stood sround about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, 12 Saying, tAmen: uBlessing, and uglory, and uwisdom, and vthanksgiving, and uhonour, and upower, and umight, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. 13 And one of the elders wanswered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in owhite robes? and whence came they? 14 And I said unto him, xSir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of ygreat tribulation, and have zwashed their robes, and omade them white ain the blood of the Lamb. 15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him bday and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne cshall dwell among them. 16 dThey shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; deneither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. 17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne fshall feed them, and gshall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and hGod shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

8 And awhen he had opened bthe seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.

And I saw cthe seven angels dwhich stood before God; and to them were given seven etrumpets. And another angel came and stood at the altar, having fa golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should ||offer it with gthe prayers of all saints upon hthe golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came gwith the prayers of the saints, iascended up before God out of the angel’s hand. And the angel took fthe censer, and kfilled it with fire of hthe altar, and cast it ||jinto the earth: and there were lvoices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and man earthquake. And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

The first angel sounded, and there followed nohail and nfire mingled with blood, and they were cast pupon the earth: and ppthe third part of qrtrees was burnt up, and all qgreen grass was burnt up.

And the second angel sounded, and as it were sa great mountain burning with fire was cast jtinto the sea: and the third part of tthe sea ubecame blood; And the third part of tthe creatures which were in the sea, tand had life, died; and the third part of vthe ships were destroyed.

10 And wthe third angel sounded, and xthere fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were ya lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the zrivers, and upon the fountains of waters; 11 And the name of the star is called aWormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, bbecause they were made bitter.

12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of cthe sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. 13 And I beheld, and heard dan angel deflying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, fWoe, woe, gwoe, to ghthe inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
