¹AND when he opened the 7th seal, there was silence in heaven for about the space of 1/2 an hour. ²Then I saw the 7 angels who stood before God, and 7 trumpets were given to them. ³And another angel came and stood at the altar, and he had a golden censer; and abundant incense was given to him, that he might offer it with the prayers of all saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. ⁴And the smoke of the incense which came with the prayers of the saints ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. ⁵And the angel took the censer and filled it with fire of the altar and cast it on the earth; and there were voices and thunderings and lightnings and an earthquake. ⁶And the 7 angels who had the 7 trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

⁷The 1st angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with water, and they were poured on the earth; and 1/3rd part of the earth was burnt up and 1/3rd part of the trees was burnt up and all green grass was burnt up.

⁸Then the 2nd angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain aflame with fire was cast into the sea; and the 1/3rd part of the sea became blood; ⁹And the 1/3rd part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the 1/3rd part of the ships were destroyed.

¹⁰And the 3rd angel sounded, and there fell a star from heaven, burning as though it were a lamp, and it fell on the 1/3rd part of the rivers and on the fountains of waters; ¹¹And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and the 1/3rd part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

¹²And the 4th angel sounded, and the 1/3rd part of the sun was eclipsed and the 1/3rd part of the moon and the 1/3rd part of the stars, so that the 1/3rd part of them was darkened, and the day was darkened for 1/3rd part of it, and the night likewise. ¹³And I looked, and heard an eagle, having a tail red as it were blood, flying through the middle of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe to those who live on the earth, by reason of the other sounds of the trumpets of the 3 angels which are yet to sound.
