The Seventh Trumpet

15 Then (A)the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and (B)there were loud voices in heaven, saying, (C)“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of (D)his Christ, and (E)he shall reign for ever and ever.” 16 And the twenty-four elders (F)who sit on their thrones before God (G)fell on their faces and worshipped God, 17 saying,

“We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
    (H)who is and who was,
for you have taken your great power
    and (I)begun to reign.
18 The nations raged,
    but (J)your wrath came,
    and (K)the time for the dead to be judged,
and for rewarding your servants,[a] the prophets and saints,
    and (L)those who fear your name,
    both small and great,
and (M)for destroying the destroyers of the earth.”

19 Then (N)God's temple in heaven was opened, and (O)the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple. There were flashes of lightning, rumblings,[b] peals of thunder, an earthquake, and (P)heavy hail.

The Woman and the Dragon

12 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman (Q)clothed with (R)the sun, with (S)the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant and (T)was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth. And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great (U)red dragon, (V)with seven heads and (W)ten horns, and on his heads (X)seven diadems. His tail swept down (Y)a third of the stars of heaven and (Z)cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she bore her child (AA)he might devour it. She gave birth to a male child, (AB)one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was (AC)caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which she is to be nourished for (AD)1,260 days.
