Revelation 16

New Century Version NCV

1 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of God's anger on the earth."

2 The first angel left and poured out his bowl on the land. Then ugly and painful sores came upon all those who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his idol.

3 The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man, and every living thing in the sea died.

4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.

5 Then I heard the angel of the waters saying: "Holy One, you are the One who is and who was. You are right to decide to punish these evil people.

6 They have poured out the blood of your holy people and your prophets. So now you have given them blood to drink as they deserve."

7 And I heard a voice coming from the altar saying: "Yes, Lord God Almighty, the way you punish evil people is right and fair."

8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and he was given power to burn the people with fire.

9 They were burned by the great heat, and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these disasters. But the people refused to change their hearts and lives and give glory to God.

10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and darkness covered its kingdom. People gnawed their tongues because of the pain.

13 Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

14 These evil spirits are the spirits of demons, which have power to do miracles. They go out to the kings of the whole world to gather them together for the battle on the great day of God Almighty.

15 "Listen! I will come as a thief comes! Happy are those who stay awake and keep their clothes on so that they will not walk around naked and have people see their shame."

16 Then the evil spirits gathered the kings together to the place that is called Armageddon in the Hebrew language.

17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. Then a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, "It is finished!"

18 Then there were flashes of lightning, noises, thunder, and a big earthquake -- the worst earthquake that has ever happened since people have been on earth.

19 The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations were destroyed. And God remembered the sins of Babylon the Great, so he gave that city the cup filled with the wine of his terrible anger.

20 Then every island ran away, and mountains disappeared.

21 Giant hailstones, each weighing about a hundred pounds, fell from the sky upon people. People cursed God for the disaster of the hail, because this disaster was so terrible.
