1 Og jeg så et annet tegn i himmelen, stort og underfullt: syv engler som hadde de syv siste plager; for med dem er Guds vrede fullendt.
2 Og jeg så likesom et glasshav blandet med ild; og dem som hadde seiret over dyret og dets billede og dets navns tall, så jeg stå ved glasshavet med Guds harper i hånd;
3 og de sang Moses', Guds tjeners sang og Lammets sang og sa: Store og underfulle er dine gjerninger, Herre Gud, du allmektige! rettferdige og sanne er dine veier, du folkenes konge!
4 Hvem skulde ikke frykte, Herre, og ære ditt navn? Du alene er hellig, og alle folkene skal komme og tilbede for ditt åsyn, fordi dine rettferdige dommer er blitt åpenbaret.
5 Og derefter så jeg, og templet med vidnesbyrdets telt i himmelen blev åpnet,
6 og de syv engler som hadde de syv plager, kom ut av templet, klædd i rent og skinnende lin og ombundet om brystet med gullbelter.
7 Og et av de fire livsvesener gav de syv engler syv gullskåler fylt med Guds vrede, hans som lever i all evighet.
8 Og templet blev fylt med røk av Guds herlighet og av hans makt; og ingen kunde gå inn i templet før de syv englers syv plager var fullendt.
1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and strange; seven angels having the seven last punishments, for in them the wrath of God is complete.
2 And I saw a sea which seemed like glass mixed with fire; and those who had overcome the beast and his image and the number of his name, were in their places by the sea of glass, with God's instruments of music in their hands.
3 And they give the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and full of wonder are your works, O Lord God, Ruler of all; true and full of righteousness are your ways, eternal King.
4 What man is there who will not have fear before you, O Lord, and give glory to your name? because you only are holy; for all the nations will come and give worship before you; for your righteousness has been made clear.
5 And after these things I saw, and the house of the Tent of witness in heaven was open:
6 And the seven angels who had the seven punishments came out from the house of God, clothed with linen, clean and bright and with bands of gold about their breasts.
7 And one of the four beasts gave to the seven angels seven gold vessels full of the wrath of God, who is living for ever and ever.
8 And the house of God was full of smoke from the glory of God, and from his power, and no one was able to go into the house of God, till the seven punishments of the seven angels were ended.
