Revelation 16:4-7
New International Version
4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water,(A) and they became blood.(B) 5 Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:
“You are just in these judgments,(C) O Holy One,(D)
you who are and who were;(E)
6 for they have shed the blood of your holy people and your prophets,(F)
and you have given them blood to drink(G) as they deserve.”
7 And I heard the altar(H) respond:
Revelation 16:4-7
New Living Translation
4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs, and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel who had authority over all water saying,
“You are just, O Holy One, who is and who always was,
because you have sent these judgments.
6 Since they shed the blood
of your holy people and your prophets,
you have given them blood to drink.
It is their just reward.”
7 And I heard a voice from the altar,[a] saying,
“Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty,
your judgments are true and just.”

Revelation 16:4-7
King James Version
4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.
5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.
