⁷ But in the days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet,^(A) the mystery^(B) of God will be accomplished, just as he announced to his servants the prophets.”^(C)

³ that is, the mystery^(A) made known to me by revelation,^(B) as I have already written briefly. ⁴ In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight^(C) into the mystery of Christ, ⁵ which was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets.^{(D) 6} This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs^(E) together with Israel, members together of one body,^(F) and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.^(G)

⁷ I became a servant of this gospel^(H) by the gift of God’s grace given me^(I) through the working of his power.^{(J) 8} Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people,^(K) this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles^(L) the boundless riches of Christ,^{(M) 9} and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery,^(N) which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things.

²⁵ Now to him who is able^(A) to establish you in accordance with my gospel,^(B) the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery^(C) hidden for long ages past,

⁴⁴ He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:^(A) Everything must be fulfilled^(B) that is written about me in the Law of Moses,^(C) the Prophets^(D) and the Psalms.”^(E)

⁴⁵ Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. ⁴⁶ He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer^(F) and rise from the dead on the third day,^{(G) 47} and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name^(H) to all nations,^(I) beginning at Jerusalem.^(J)

²¹ Heaven must receive him^(A) until the time comes for God to restore everything,^(B) as he promised long ago through his holy prophets.^(C)

The Seventh Trumpet

¹⁵ The seventh angel sounded his trumpet,^(A) and there were loud voices^(B) in heaven, which said:

¹⁶ And the twenty-four elders,^(E) who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces^(F) and worshiped God, ¹⁷ saying:

All Israel Will Be Saved

²⁵ I do not want you to be ignorant^(A) of this mystery,^(B) brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited:^(C) Israel has experienced a hardening^(D) in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in,^(E)
