启示录 8
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
揭开第七印
8 羔羊揭开第七印时，天上寂静无声，约半小时。 2 然后，我看见站在上帝面前的七位天使领受了七支号角。
3 另一位天使手里拿着金香炉上前来，站在祭坛旁边。他接过了许多香，把香和众圣徒的祈祷一起献在宝座前的金坛上。 4 这香发出的烟，连同众圣徒的祷告从那天使的手中向上升，直达上帝面前。 5 天使又拿着香炉，盛满祭坛的火，将它倒在地上，于是有雷鸣、巨响、闪电和地震。
天使吹号
6 这时，那七位拿着号角的天使也预备要吹号。
7 第一位天使吹响号角的时候，冰雹和火搀杂着血从天上倾盆而下。地的三分之一、树木的三分之一和一切的青草都被烧毁了。
8 第二位天使吹号的时候，一座好像燃烧的大山被丢进海里。海洋的三分之一变成了血， 9 海中的活物死了三分之一，船只也被毁了三分之一。
10 第三位天使吹号的时候，有一颗好像火炬般燃烧着的巨星从天上坠落在三分之一的江河溪流和水泉里。 11 这颗星名叫“苦艾”，它使三分之一的水都变苦了，许多人因为喝了这种苦水而死去。
12 第四位天使吹号的时候，太阳、月亮和星辰的三分之一都受到重击，以致失去了光辉，于是日间的三分之一暗淡无光，夜间也是如此。 13 我又看见有一只鹰在半空中飞翔，听见它大声宣告：“有祸了！有祸了！世上的居民有祸了！还有三位天使要吹响号角。”

揭開第七印
8 羔羊揭開第七印時，天上寂靜無聲，約半小時。 2 然後，我看見站在上帝面前的七位天使領受了七支號角。
3 另一位天使手裡拿著金香爐上前來，站在祭壇旁邊。他接過了許多香，把香和眾聖徒的祈禱一起獻在寶座前的金壇上。 4 這香發出的煙，連同眾聖徒的禱告從那天使的手中向上升，直達上帝面前。 5 天使又拿著香爐，盛滿祭壇的火，將它倒在地上，於是有雷鳴、巨響、閃電和地震。
天使吹號
6 這時，那七位拿著號角的天使也預備要吹號。
7 第一位天使吹響號角的時候，冰雹和火攙雜著血從天上傾盆而下。地的三分之一、樹木的三分之一和一切的青草都被燒毀了。
8 第二位天使吹號的時候，一座好像燃燒的大山被丟進海裡。海洋的三分之一變成了血， 9 海中的活物死了三分之一，船隻也被毀了三分之一。
10 第三位天使吹號的時候，有一顆好像火炬般燃燒著的巨星從天上墜落在三分之一的江河溪流和水泉裡。 11 這顆星名叫「苦艾」，它使三分之一的水都變苦了，許多人因為喝了這種苦水而死去。
12 第四位天使吹號的時候，太陽、月亮和星辰的三分之一都受到重擊，以致失去了光輝，於是日間的三分之一黯淡無光，夜間也是如此。 13 我又看見有一隻鷹在半空中飛翔，聽見牠大聲宣告：「有禍了！有禍了！世上的居民有禍了！還有三位天使要吹響號角。」
Revelation 8
International Children’s Bible
The Seventh Seal
8 The Lamb opened the seventh seal. Then there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God. They were given seven trumpets.
3 Another angel came and stood at the altar. This angel had a golden pan for incense. The angel was given much incense to offer with the prayers of all God’s holy people. The angel put this offering on the golden altar before the throne. 4 The smoke from the incense went up from the angel’s hand to God. It went up with the prayers of God’s people. 5 Then the angel filled the incense pan with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth. There were flashes of lightning, thunder and loud noises, and an earthquake.
The Seven Angels and Trumpets
6 Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to blow them.
7 The first angel blew his trumpet. Then hail and fire mixed with blood was poured down on the earth. And a third of the earth and all the green grass and a third of the trees were burned up.
8 The second angel blew his trumpet. Then something that looked like a big mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. And a third of the sea became blood. 9 And a third of the living things in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel blew his trumpet. Then a large star, burning like a torch, fell from the sky. It fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. 11 The name of the star is Wormwood.[a] And a third of all the water became bitter. Many people died from drinking the water that was bitter.
12 The fourth angel blew his trumpet. Then a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were hit. So a third of them became dark. A third of the day was without light.
13 While I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying high in the air. The eagle said with a loud voice, “Trouble! Trouble! Trouble for those who live on the earth! The trouble will begin with the sounds of the trumpets that the other three angels are about to blow.”
