Apocalipsis 16
Dios Habla Hoy
16 Oí una fuerte voz, que salía del santuario y que decía a los siete ángeles: «Vayan y vacíen sobre la tierra esas siete copas de la ira de Dios.»
Las siete copas
2 El primer ángel fue y vació su copa sobre la tierra; y a toda la gente que tenía la marca del monstruo y adoraba su imagen, le salió una llaga maligna y dolorosa.
3 El segundo ángel vació su copa sobre el mar, y el agua del mar se volvió sangre, como la de un hombre asesinado, y murió todo lo que en el mar tenía vida.
4 El tercer ángel vació su copa sobre los ríos y manantiales, y se volvieron sangre. 5 Luego oí que el ángel de las aguas decía:
«Tú eres justo por haber juzgado así,
oh Dios santo, que eres y que eras,
6 porque ellos derramaron la sangre
de tu pueblo santo
y de los profetas,
y ahora tú les has dado a beber sangre.
¡Se lo han merecido!»
7 Oí también que el del altar decía: «Sí, oh Señor, Dios todopoderoso, tú has juzgado con verdad y rectitud.»
8 El cuarto ángel vació su copa sobre el sol, y se le dio al sol poder para quemar con fuego a la gente. 9 Y todos quedaron terriblemente quemados; pero no se volvieron a Dios ni lo alabaron, sino que dijeron cosas ofensivas contra él, que tiene poder sobre estas calamidades.
10 El quinto ángel vació su copa sobre el trono del monstruo, y su reino quedó en oscuridad. La gente se mordía la lengua de dolor; 11 pero ni aun así dejaron de hacer el mal, sino que a causa de sus dolores y sus llagas dijeron cosas ofensivas contra el Dios del cielo.
12 El sexto ángel vació su copa sobre el gran río Éufrates, y el agua del río se secó para dar paso a los reyes que venían de oriente.
13 Vi que de la boca del dragón, de la boca del monstruo y de la boca del falso profeta, salían tres espíritus impuros en forma de ranas. 14 Eran espíritus de demonios, que hacían señales milagrosas y salían a reunir a todos los reyes del mundo para la batalla del gran día del Dios todopoderoso.
15 «Miren, yo vengo como el ladrón. Dichoso el que se mantiene despierto y conserva su ropa, para que no ande desnudo y se vea la vergüenza de su desnudez.»
16 Y reunieron a los reyes en el lugar que en hebreo se llama Harmagedón.
17 El séptimo ángel vació su copa en el aire, y desde el santuario salió una fuerte voz que venía del trono y decía: «¡Ya está hecho!» 18 Entonces hubo relámpagos, voces y truenos, y la tierra tembló a causa de un terremoto más violento que todos los terremotos que ha habido desde que hay gente en el mundo. 19 La gran ciudad se partió en tres, y las ciudades del mundo se derrumbaron; y Dios se acordó de la gran ciudad de Babilonia, para hacerla beber el vino de su ira terrible. 20 Todas las islas y los montes desaparecieron, 21 y del cielo cayeron sobre la gente enormes granizos, que pesaban más de cuarenta kilos, y los hombres dijeron cosas ofensivas contra Dios por la calamidad del granizo, porque fue un castigo muy grande.
Revelation 16
King James Version
16 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.
4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.
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.
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,
11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.
19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
Revelation 16
New International Version
The Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath
16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple(A) saying to the seven angels,(B) “Go, pour out the seven bowls of God’s wrath on the earth.”(C)
2 The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land,(D) and ugly, festering sores(E) broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.(F)
3 The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it turned into blood like that of a dead person, and every living thing in the sea died.(G)
4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water,(H) and they became blood.(I) 5 Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:
“You are just in these judgments,(J) O Holy One,(K)
you who are and who were;(L)
6 for they have shed the blood of your holy people and your prophets,(M)
and you have given them blood to drink(N) as they deserve.”
7 And I heard the altar(O) respond:
8 The fourth angel(R) poured out his bowl on the sun,(S) and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire.(T) 9 They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God,(U) who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent(V) and glorify him.(W)
10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast,(X) and its kingdom was plunged into darkness.(Y) People gnawed their tongues in agony 11 and cursed(Z) the God of heaven(AA) because of their pains and their sores,(AB) but they refused to repent of what they had done.(AC)
12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates,(AD) and its water was dried up to prepare the way(AE) for the kings from the East.(AF) 13 Then I saw three impure spirits(AG) that looked like frogs;(AH) they came out of the mouth of the dragon,(AI) out of the mouth of the beast(AJ) and out of the mouth of the false prophet.(AK) 14 They are demonic spirits(AL) that perform signs,(AM) and they go out to the kings of the whole world,(AN) to gather them for the battle(AO) on the great day(AP) of God Almighty.
15 “Look, I come like a thief!(AQ) Blessed is the one who stays awake(AR) and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”(AS)
16 Then they gathered the kings together(AT) to the place that in Hebrew(AU) is called Armageddon.(AV)
17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air,(AW) and out of the temple(AX) came a loud voice(AY) from the throne, saying, “It is done!”(AZ) 18 Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder(BA) and a severe earthquake.(BB) No earthquake like it has ever occurred since mankind has been on earth,(BC) so tremendous was the quake. 19 The great city(BD) split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. God remembered(BE) Babylon the Great(BF) and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath.(BG) 20 Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found.(BH) 21 From the sky huge hailstones,(BI) each weighing about a hundred pounds,[a] fell on people. And they cursed God(BJ) on account of the plague of hail,(BK) because the plague was so terrible.
