Revelation 11:9-18

English Standard Version

⁹For three and a half days some from the peoples and tribes and languages and nations will gaze at their dead bodies and ^(A)refuse to let them be placed in a tomb, ¹⁰and ^(B)those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and make merry and ^(C)exchange presents, because these two prophets ^(D)had been a torment to those who dwell on the earth. ¹¹But after the three and a half days ^(E)a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. ¹²Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, ^(F)“Come up here!” And ^(G)they went up to heaven ^(H)in a cloud, and their enemies watched them. ¹³And at that hour there was ^(I)a great earthquake, and ^(J)a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and ^(K)gave glory to ^(L)the God of heaven.

¹⁴^(M)The second woe has passed; behold, the third woe is soon to come.

The Seventh Trumpet

¹⁵Then ^(N)the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and ^(O)there were loud voices in heaven, saying, ^(P)“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of ^(Q)his Christ, and ^(R)he shall reign forever and ever.” ¹⁶And the twenty-four elders ^(S)who sit on their thrones before God ^(T)fell on their faces and worshiped God, ¹⁷saying,

“We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
    ^(U)who is and who was,
for you have taken your great power
    and ^(V)begun to reign.
¹⁸The nations raged,
    but ^(W)your wrath came,
    and ^(X)the time for the dead to be judged,
and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints,
    and ^(Y)those who fear your name,
    both small and great,
and ^(Z)for destroying the destroyers of the earth.”
