1
Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, "Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God."
2
So the first angel went and poured his bowl on the earth, and a foul and painful sore came on those who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped its image.
3
The second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing in the sea died.
4
The third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.
5
And I heard the angel of the waters say, "You are just, O Holy One, who are and were, for you have judged these things;
6
because they shed the blood of saints and prophets, you have given them blood to drink. It is what they deserve!"
7
And I heard the altar respond, "Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty, your judgments are true and just!"
