The Seventh Seal—the Trumpets
8
1  When the Lamb broke the Aseventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 And I saw Athe seven angels who stand before God, and seven Btrumpets were given to them.
3  AAnother angel came and stood at the Baltar, holding a Cgolden censer; and much Dincense was given to him, so that he might 1add it to the Dprayers of all the 2saints on the Egolden altar which was before the throne. 4 And Athe smoke of the incense, 1with the prayers of the 2saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand. 5  Then the angel 1took the censer and Afilled it with the fire of the altar, and Bthrew it to the earth; and there followed Cpeals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an Dearthquake.
6  AAnd the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them.
7 The first sounded, and there came Ahail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth; and Ba third of the earth was burned up, and Ba third of the Ctrees were burned up, and all the green Cgrass was burned up.
8 The second angel sounded, and something like a great Amountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and Ba third of the Csea became blood, 9 and Aa third of the creatures which were in the sea 1and had life, died; and a third of the Bships were destroyed.
10 The third angel sounded, and a great star Afell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a Bthird of the rivers and on the Csprings of waters. 11 The name of the star is called Wormwood; and a Athird of the waters became Bwormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 The fourth angel sounded, and a Athird of the Bsun and a third of the Bmoon and a Athird of the Bstars were struck, so that a Athird of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a Athird of it, and the night in the same way.
13  Then I looked, and I heard 1an eagle flying in Amidheaven, saying with a loud voice, “BWoe, woe, woe to Cthose who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the Dthree angels who are about to sound!”
