^16 (A)and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who ^(B)sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! ¹⁷ For the great day of His wrath has come, ^(C)and who is able to stand?”

⁸ And another angel followed, saying, ^(A)“Babylon^[a] is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because ^(B)she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

¹⁰ he himself ^(A)shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is ^(B)poured out full strength into ^(C)the cup of His indignation. ^(D)He shall be tormented with ^(E)fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

¹⁹ So the angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and threw it into ^(A)the great winepress of the wrath of God.

Prelude to the Bowl Judgments

15 Then ^(A)I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous: ^(B)seven angels having the seven last plagues, ^(C)for in them the wrath of God is complete.

^7 (A)Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God ^(B)who lives forever and ever.

The Seven Bowls

16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying ^(A)to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the ^[a]bowls ^(B)of the wrath of God on the earth.”

¹⁹ Now ^(A)the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And ^(B)great Babylon ^(C)was remembered before God, ^(D)to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.
