Revelation 16:5-7
New International Version
5 Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:
“You are just in these judgments,(A) O Holy One,(B)
you who are and who were;(C)
6 for they have shed the blood of your holy people and your prophets,(D)
and you have given them blood to drink(E) as they deserve.”
7 And I heard the altar(F) respond:
Revelation 16:5-7
King James Version
5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.
