The Seventh Trumpet

15 Then the (A)seventh angel sounded, and there were (B)loud voices in heaven, saying,

(C)The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of (D)His [a]Christ, and (E)He will reign forever and ever.” 16 And the twenty-four elders, who (F)sit on their thrones before God, (G)fell on their faces and worshiped God, 17 saying,

“We give You thanks, (H)O Lord God, the Almighty, who is and who was, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to (I)reign. 18 And (J)the nations were enraged, and (K)Your rage came, and (L)the time came for the dead to be judged, and to give reward to Your (M)slaves—the prophets and the saints and those who fear Your name, (N)the small and the great—and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”

19 And (O)the sanctuary of God which is in heaven was opened, and (P)the ark of His covenant appeared in His sanctuary, and there were flashes of (Q)lightning and sounds and peals of thunder and an earthquake and a (R)great [b]hailstorm.

The Vision of the Seventh Angel Blowing His Trumpet

15 When the seventh angel blew his trumpet, there were loud voices in heaven, saying,

“The world’s kingdom has become
    the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,[a]
        and he will rule forever and ever.”

16 Then the twenty-four elders who were sitting on their thrones in God’s presence fell on their faces and worshipped God. 17 They said,

“We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
    who is and who was,
because you have taken your great power
    and have begun to rule.
18 The nations were angry,
    but the time for[b] your wrath has come.
It is time for the dead to be judged—
    to reward your servants, the prophets, the saints, and all who fear your name,
        both unimportant and important,
    and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”

19 Then the Temple of God in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen inside his Temple. There were flashes of lightning, noises, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail.
