Seventh Trumpet: The Kingdom Proclaimed

15 Then (A)the seventh angel sounded: (B)And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, (C)“The [a]kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, (D)and He shall reign forever and ever!” 16 And (E)the twenty-four elders who sat before God on their thrones fell on their faces and (F)worshiped God, 17 saying:

“We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty,
The One (G)who is and who was [b]and who is to come,
Because You have taken Your great power (H)and reigned.
18 The nations were (I)angry, and Your [c]wrath has come,
And the time of the (J)dead, that they should be judged,
And that You should reward Your servants the prophets and the saints,
And those who fear Your name, small and great,
And should destroy those who destroy the earth.”

The Seventh Trumpet

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

“The kingdom of the world has become
    the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,(C)
    and he will reign for ever and ever.”(D)

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:

“We give thanks(G) to you, Lord God Almighty,(H)
    the One who is and who was,(I)
because you have taken your great power
    and have begun to reign.(J)
18 The nations were angry,(K)
    and your wrath has come.
The time has come for judging the dead,(L)
    and for rewarding your servants the prophets(M)
and your people who revere your name,
    both great and small(N)
and for destroying those who destroy the earth.”
