8  When he opened the seventh seal, silence reigned in heaven for about half-an-hour. 2  Then I saw seven trumpets being given to the seven angels who stand before God. 3  And another angel went and stood at the altar with a golden censer; he was given abundant incense, to be laid with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar in front of the throne; 4  and the smoke of the incense with the prayers of all the saints rose up from the angel's hand before God. 5  Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and poured it on the earth; then followed peals of thunder, loud blasts, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake. 6  The seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to blow their blasts. 7  The first blew, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, falling on the earth; a third of the earth was burnt up, a third of the trees were burnt up, and all the green grass was burnt up. 8  The second angel blew, and what looked like a huge mountain on fire was hurled into the sea; a third of the sea turned blood, 9  a third of the creatures in the sea--the living creatures--perished, and a third of the ships were destroyed. 10  The third angel blew, and a huge star blazing like a torch dropped out of the sky, dropped on a third of the rivers and on the fountains 11  (the name of the star is Wormwood); a third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died of the waters, because they had turned bitter. 12  The fourth angel blew; and a stroke fell on a third of the sun, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so as to darken one third of them, withdrawing light from a third of the day and likewise of the night.

13  Then I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven with a loud cry, "Woe, woe, woe to the dwellers on earth, for the rest of the trumpet-blasts that the three angels are about to blow!"
