15TH CHAPTER

Seven Angels with Seven Plagues

I saw another sign in heaven. It was spectacular and amazing. There were seven angels with the last seven plagues which are the final expression of God’s anger. 

Then I saw what looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire. Those who had won the victory over the beast, its statue, and the number of its name were standing on the glassy sea. They were holding God’s harps and singing the song of God’s servant Moses and the song of the lamb. They sang, 

“The things you do are spectacular and amazing, Lord God Almighty. 

The way you do them is fair and true, King of the Nations. 

Lord, who won’t fear and praise your name? 

You are the only holy one, 

and all the nations will come to worship you 

because they know about your fair judgments.” 

After these things I looked, and I saw that the temple of the tent containing the words of God’s promise was open in heaven. The seven angels with the seven plagues came out of the temple wearing clean, shining linen with gold belts around their waists. One of the four living creatures gave seven gold bowls full of the anger of God, who lives forever and ever, to the seven angels. The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and his power. No one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels came to an end.
