The Revelation to Yochanan, Chapter 8
{8:1} When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven
for about half an hour. {8:2} I saw the seven angels who stand before
God, and seven [1>]shofars[<1] were given to them. {8:3} Another angel
came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense
was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the holy
ones on the golden altar which was before the throne. {8:4} The smoke
of the incense, with the prayers of the holy ones, went up before God
out of the angel's hand. {8:5} The angel took the censer, and he
filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it on the earth. There
followed thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake.
{8:6} The seven angels who had the seven [2>]shofars[<2] prepared
themselves to sound. {8:7} The first sounded, and there followed hail
and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. [3>]One
third of the earth was burnt up,[<3] and one third of the trees were
burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
{8:8} The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning
mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,
{8:9} and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea
died. One third of the ships were destroyed.
{8:10} The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky,
burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on
the springs of the waters. {8:11} The name of the star is called
"Wormwood." One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died
from the waters, because they were made bitter.
{8:12} The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was
struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars; so that
one third of them would be darkened, and the day wouldn't shine for
one third of it, and the night in the same way. {8:13} I saw, and I
heard an [4>]eagle,[<4] flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud
voice, "Woe! Woe! Woe for those who dwell on the earth, because of the
other voices of the [5>]shofars[<5] of the three angels, who are yet
to sound!"
