揭开第七个印

羊羔揭开第七个印的时候,天上静默了大约半小时。 我看见站在 神面前的七位天使,有七枝号筒赐给了他们。

另外有一位天使来了,拿着金香炉,站在祭坛前。有许多香赐给了他,好与所有圣徒的祈祷一同献在宝座前的金坛上。 那香的烟和众圣徒的祈祷,就从天使手中一同升到 神面前。 天使拿着香炉,用坛上的火把它装满了,投在地上;于是就有雷轰、响声、闪电和地震。

吹六枝号

拿着七枝号筒的七位天使,预备好了要吹号。

第一位天使吹号,就有冰雹和混杂着血的火,投在地上。地的三分之一烧掉了,树的三分之一烧掉了,所有的青草也烧掉了。

第二位天使吹号,就有一座好象燃烧着的大山,投在海里。海的三分之一变成了血, 海里受造的活物死了三分之一,船只也毁坏了三分之一。

10 第三位天使吹号,就有一颗燃烧着的大星,好象火把一样,从天上落下来,落在江河的三分之一上,和众水的泉源上。 11 这星名叫“苦堇”。众水的三分之一变为“苦堇”,因水变苦,就有许多人因为这水而死了。

12 第四位天使吹号,太阳的三分之一、月亮的三分之一、星辰的三分之一,就都受到击打,以致日月星的三分之一都变黑了,白天的三分之一没有光,夜晚也是这样。

13 我观看,就听见一只在高空飞翔的鹰,大声说:“有祸了!有祸了!住在地上的人有祸了!因为还有三位天使将要吹其余的号。”

The Seventh Seal

When the Lamb broke open the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and they were given seven trumpets.

(A)Another angel, who had a gold incense container, came and stood at the altar. He was given a lot of incense to add to the prayers of all God's people and to offer it on the gold altar that stands before the throne. The smoke of the burning incense went up with the prayers of God's people from the hands of the angel standing before God. (B)Then the angel took the incense container, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it on the earth. There were rumblings and peals of thunder, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

The Trumpets

(C)Then the seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to blow them.

(D)The first angel blew his trumpet. Hail and fire, mixed with blood, came pouring down on the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees, and every blade of green grass.

Then the second angel blew his trumpet. Something that looked like a huge mountain on fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea was turned into blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

10 (E)Then the third angel blew his trumpet. A large star, burning like a torch, dropped from the sky and fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. 11 (F)(The name of the star is “Bitterness.”) A third of the water turned bitter, and many people died from drinking the water, because it had turned bitter.

12 (G)Then the fourth angel blew his trumpet. A third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that their light lost a third of its brightness; there was no light during a third of the day and a third of the night also.

13 Then I looked, and I heard an eagle that was flying high in the air say in a loud voice, “O horror! horror! How horrible it will be for all who live on earth when the sound comes from the trumpets that the other three angels must blow!”
