4
Noises and confusion, thunders and earthquake, tumult on the earth!
5
Then two great dragons came forward, both ready to fight, and they roared terribly.
6
At their roaring every nation prepared for war, to fight against the righteous nation.
7
It was a day of darkness and gloom, of tribulation and distress, affliction and great tumult on the earth!
8
And the whole righteous nation was troubled; they feared the evils that threatened them, and were ready to perish.
