2 And the first went and poured out his vial upon the earth. And there fell a sore and grievous wound upon men who had the character of the beast: and upon them that adored the image thereof.

3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea. And there came blood as it were of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.

20 And every island fled away: and the mountains were not found.

21 And great hail, like a talent, came down from heaven upon men: and men blasphemed God, for the plague of the hail: because it was exceeding great.
