Then I heard a loud voice from ^(a)the ^[a]temple, saying to the ^(b)seven angels, "Go and ^(c)pour out ^[b]on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God."

So the first angel went and poured out his bowl ^[c](d)on the earth; and it became a loathsome and malignant ^(e)sore on the ^[d]people ^(f)who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.

The second angel poured out his bowl ^(g)into the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man; and every living ^[e]thing in the sea died.

Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the ^(h)rivers and the springs of waters; and they ⁽ⁱ⁾became blood.

And I heard the angel of the waters saying, "^(j)Righteous are You, ^(k)who are and who were, O ^(l)Holy One, because You ^(m)judged these things;

for they poured out ⁽ⁿ⁾the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them ^(o)blood to drink. They ^[f]deserve it."

And I heard ^(p)the altar saying, "Yes, O ^(q)Lord God, the Almighty, ^(r)true and righteous are Your judgments."

The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon ^(s)the sun, ^(t)and it was given to it to scorch men with fire.

Men were scorched with ^[g]fierce heat; and they ^(u)blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues, and they ^(v)did not repent so as to ^(w)give Him glory.

Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the ^(x)throne of the beast, and his kingdom became ^(y)darkened; and they gnawed their tongues because of pain,

and they ^(z)blasphemed the ^(aa)God of heaven because of their pains and their ^(ab)sores; and they ^(ac)did not repent of their deeds.
