Openbaring 15
Het Boek
Het lied van Mozes en het lied van het Lam
15 Ik zag nog een indrukwekkend en wonderlijk teken in de hemel: zeven engelen met de zeven laatste rampen. Na die rampen zal Gods toorn voorbij zijn.
2 Ik zag iets dat leek op een zee van glas dat met vuur vermengd was. Op die glazen zee stonden de mensen die als overwinnaars uit de strijd met het beest, zijn beeld en het getal van zijn naam tevoorschijn waren gekomen. Zij hadden allemaal een harp van God gekregen 3 en zongen het lied van Mozes, de dienaar van God en het lied van het Lam:
‘Almachtige Here en God, wat U hebt gedaan, is groot en wonderbaar! Heerser over de volken, rechtvaardig en betrouwbaar is alles wat u doet. 4 Here, wie zou geen ontzag voor U hebben? Wie zou U niet eren om wie U bent? U alleen bent heilig. Alle volken zullen komen en U aanbidden, omdat nu duidelijk is geworden dat U recht doet.’
5 Daarna zag ik de tempel in de hemel, de tempel met de verbondstent, wijd open gaan. 6 De zeven engelen met de zeven rampen kwamen naar buiten. Zij hadden blinkend witte kleren aan en droegen een gouden band om hun borst. 7 Een van de vier levende wezens gaf elk van de engelen een gouden schaal, vol met de wraak van God, die eeuwig leeft. 8 Toen werd de tempel gevuld met rook, als teken van Gods heerlijkheid en macht. Niemand kon de tempel binnengaan, totdat de zeven rampen van de zeven engelen voorbij waren.
Revelation 15
Tree of Life Version
Song of Moses to the Lamb
15 Then I saw another great and wonderful sign in heaven: seven angels who have seven plagues—the last ones, for with them God’s wrath is finished. 2 And I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had overcome the beast and his image[a] and the number of his name standing by the sea of glass, holding the harps of God. 3 And they are singing the song of Moses[b] the servant of God and the song of the Lamb, saying,
“Great and wonderful are Your deeds,
Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot![c]
Just and true are Your ways,
O King of the nations![d]
4 Who shall not fear and glorify Your name, O Lord?
For You alone are Holy.
All the nations shall come and worship before You,[e]
for Your righteous acts have been revealed!”
5 After these things I looked, and the Temple of the Tent of Witness in heaven was opened. 6 Out of the Temple came the seven angels having the seven plagues, dressed in pure bright linen and wearing wide gold sashes around their chests.
7 Then one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever. 8 And the Temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power.[f] No one was able to enter the Temple until the seven angels’ seven plagues were finished.

Revelation 15
New King James Version
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.
2 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. 3 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!
4 (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.”
5 After these things I looked, and [c]behold, (P)the [d]temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened. 6 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. 7 (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. 8 (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.
