The Book of Revelation 16

16Next I heard someone in the temple speak in a loud voice to the angels who had the seven bowls. He told them, “Go from here and pour out what you have in your seven bowls onto the earth. This is how God will punish people for their sins.” 2So the first angel went and poured out what he had in his bowl onto the earth. As a result, terrible sores broke out on the people who had allowed the beast’s servants to write the beast’s name on them. These were the people who had worshiped the beast’s image. 3Then the second angel poured out what he had in his bowl on the ocean. As a result, the water of the sea turned into blood. That blood was decayed and stinky like the blood of a dead person. Every creature that lived in the ocean died. 4Then the third angel poured out what he had in his bowl upon the earth’s rivers and springs. As a result, the water in them turned into blood. 5Then I heard the angel who was in charge of those waters say to God, “O God, you exist and have always existed. You are supremely holy. You are a fair judge of people. 6The people who rebelled against you murdered your holy people and the prophets. So you are just in punishing them by giving them blood to drink.” 7Then I heard the altar answer, “Yes, Lord God, you who rule over everything, you punish people completely fairly.” 8Then the fourth angel poured out what he had in his bowl on the sun. As a result, the sun became so hot that it burned people very badly. 9Because the sun burned people so badly, they said evil things about God because he had the power to punish them in these ways. But they still refused to stop doing wrong things and they still refused to praise him.

10Then the fifth angel poured out what he had in his bowl on the throne of the beast. As a result, it became dark where the beast ruled. Because it was like night all the time, the people whom the beast ruled could feel the pain of their terrible sores even more. So they were biting their tongues because of this pain. 11They also said evil things about God who rules in heaven because their sores were so painful. But they refused to stop doing wrong things. 12Then the sixth angel poured out what he had in his bowl on the Euphrates River. As a result, the water in the river dried up so that the rulers from the eastern countries could cross it with their armies. 13Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs. One came out of the mouth of the dragon. One came out of the mouth of the beast. And one came out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14Now those spirits were demons that were able to do miracles. They went out to the rulers of the entire earth to gather their armies. Those armies will fight a battle on the important day when Almighty God punishes his enemies. 15(I heard the Lord Jesus say, “You must listen carefully to me: I am coming unexpectedly, like a thief. It will be good for people who stay alert and keep on living in the right way. They will not feel shame when I return. They will be just like a person who keeps his clothes on so that he does not feel shame in front of other people.”) 16The evil spirits gathered the rulers at a place whose name in the Hebrew language is Armageddon.

17Then the seventh angel poured what he had in his bowl into the air. As a result, someone said with a loud voice from the throne in the temple, “God has now finished punishing rebellious people.” 18Then lightning flashed, thunder rumbled, and the earth shook violently. There had not been such a powerful earthquake during the whole time that people have lived on the earth. 19As a result of this earthquake, the giant city split into three parts. God also destroyed the cities in the other nations. God did not forget that the people of Babylon had sinned very much. So he made them experience the punishments they so justly deserved. 20Also as a result of the earthquake, every island disappeared, and the mountains became flat land. 21Then huge hailstones, each weighing 33 kilograms, fell from the sky onto people. Then people said evil things about God because he had punished them in this terrible way with those huge, heavy hailstones.
