[Revelation 8]

 

             ^8:1 And when he opened the seventh seal, silence became in heaven for approximately a half hour. ^8:2 And I saw the seven messengers who are standing in God’s sight, and seven trumpets were given to them.

             ^8:3 And another messenger came and then stood over the altar, having a golden censer, and many incenses were given to him in-order-that he should give it with the prayers of all the holy-ones upon the golden altar which is in the sight of the throne. ^8:4 And the smoke of the incenses, with the prayers of the holy-ones, went-up in God’s sight out-of the messenger’s hand. ^8:5 And the messenger has taken the censer, and he filled it from the fire of the altar and cast it to the earth, and thunders and voices and lightnings and an earthquake happened.

 

             ^8:6 And the seven messengers who have the seven trumpets prepared themselves in-order-that they might sound them.

 

             ^8:7 And the first messenger sounded and it happened that hail and fire which have been mixed in blood, and it was cast to the earth and the third of the earth was burnt up and the third of the trees was burnt up and all the pale-green grass was burnt up.

 

             ^8:8 And the second messenger sounded and something like a great burning mountain was cast into the sea and the third of the sea became blood; ^8:9 and the third of the created things (the ones having lives), died which were in the sea, and the third of the ships were decayed.

 

             ^8:10 And the third messenger sounded and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch and it fell upon the third of the rivers and upon the springs of the waters; ^8:11 and the name of the star is called^* the wormwood and the third of the waters became into wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because the waters were made bitter.

 

             ^8:12 And the fourth messenger sounded and the third of the sun was pounded flat and the third of the moon and the third of the stars; in-order-that the third of them should be darkened and the day might not appear for the third of it and the night likewise.

 

             ^8:13 And I saw and I heard one eagle, flying in mid-heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the ones dwelling upon the earth, from the rest of the voices of the trumpet of the three messengers, who are about to sound.
