Revelation 11:11–18

11 But after the three and a half days, athe breath of life from God came into them, and they stood on their feet; and great fear fell upon those who were watching them.

12 And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “aCome up here.” Then they bwent up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies watched them.

13 And in that hour there was a great aearthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; 1seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and bgave glory to the cGod of heaven.

14 The second awoe is past; behold, the third woe is coming quickly.

The Seventh Trumpet—Christ’s Reign Foreseen

15 Then the aseventh angel sounded; and there were bloud voices in heaven, saying,

“cThe kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of dHis 1Christ; and eHe will reign forever and ever.”

16 And the twenty-four elders, who asit on their thrones before God, bfell on their faces and worshiped God,

17 saying,

“We give You thanks, aO Lord God, the Almighty, who are and who were, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to breign.

18 “And athe nations were enraged, and bYour wrath came, and cthe time came for the dead to be judged, and the time to 1reward Your dbond-servants the prophets and the 2saints and those who fear Your name, ethe small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
