神愤怒的七个金碗

15 接着,我看见天上有另一个大而奇妙的征兆:有七位天使带着最后的七样灾害,因为神的愤怒就在这些灾害中完结了。 我又看见一片好像混着火的玻璃海;那些胜过了兽和兽像[a]以及它名字数目的人,都拿着神的竖琴,站在玻璃海上; 他们唱着神的奴仆摩西之歌和羔羊之歌,说:

“主、神、全能者啊,你的作为又伟大又奇妙!
列国之王[b]啊,你的道路又公义又真实!
主啊!谁能不敬畏、不荣耀你的名呢?
因为只有你是圣洁的,
因为万民都要来,在你面前敬拜,
因为你公义的规定[c]已经显明了。”

这些事以后,我又观看,看哪,[d]天上的圣所,就是那见证的会幕开了。 那带着七样灾害的七位天使,从圣所中出来了;他们身穿洁白[e]明亮的细麻衣,胸间束着金带。 四个活物中有一个把七个金碗交给了那七位天使,碗里盛满了活到永永远远之神的愤怒。 圣所就充满了从神的荣耀和他的大能而来的烟;没有人能进入圣所,直到那七位天使的七样灾害完结了。

15 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.

And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:

And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.

And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.

And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

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.

And I saw something like (D)a sea of glass (E)mingled with fire, and those who have the victory over the beast, (F)over his image and [a]over his mark and over the (G)number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, (H)having harps of God. They sing (I)the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the (J)Lamb, saying:

(K)“Great and marvelous are Your works,
Lord God Almighty!
(L)Just and true are Your ways,
O King of the [b]saints!
(M)Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name?
For You alone are (N)holy.
For (O)all nations shall come and worship before You,
For Your judgments have been manifested.”

After these things I looked, and [c]behold, (P)the [d]temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened. And out of the [e]temple came the seven angels having the seven plagues, (Q)clothed in pure bright linen, and having their chests girded with golden bands. (R)Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God (S)who lives forever and ever. (T)The temple was filled with smoke (U)from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
