Reaping the Grapes of Wrath

¹⁷ Then another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.

The Seven Bowls

16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying ^(A)to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the ^[a]bowls ^(B)of the wrath of God on the earth.”

⁵ After these things I looked, and ^[a]behold, ^(A)the ^[b]temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened. ⁶ And out of the ^[c]temple came the seven angels having the seven plagues, ^(B)clothed in pure bright linen, and having their chests girded with golden bands.

¹⁸ And another angel came out from the altar, ^(A)who had power over fire, and he cried with a loud cry to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, ^(B)“Thrust in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes are fully ripe.”

Reaping the Earth’s Harvest

¹⁴ Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. ¹⁵ And another angel ^(A)came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, ^(B)“Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come ^[a]for You to reap, for the harvest ^(C)of the earth is ripe.”
