The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and (C)it became like the blood of a corpse, and (D)every living thing died that was in the sea.

The third angel poured out his bowl into (E)the rivers and the springs of water, and (F)they became blood. And I heard the angel in charge of the waters[a] say,

(G)“Just are you, (H)O Holy One, (I)who is and who was,
    for you brought these judgments.
For (J)they have shed the blood of (K)saints and prophets,
    and (L)you have given them blood to drink.
It is what they deserve!”

And I heard (M)the altar saying,

“Yes, Lord God the Almighty,
    (N)true and just are your judgments!”

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch people (O)with fire. They were scorched by the fierce heat, and (P)they cursed[b] the name of God who had power over these plagues. (Q)They did not repent (R)and give him glory.

10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on (S)the throne of the beast, and (T)its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in anguish 11 and cursed (U)the God of heaven for their pain and (V)sores. (W)They did not repent of their deeds.

12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on (X)the great river Euphrates, and (Y)its water was dried up, (Z)to prepare the way for the kings (AA)from the east.
