Revelation 14:14-19
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 Then I looked and there was a white cloud, and sitting on the cloud one who looked like a son of man, with a gold crown on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand.(A) 15 Another angel came out of the temple, crying out in a loud voice to the one sitting on the cloud, “Use your sickle and reap the harvest, for the time to reap has come, because the earth’s harvest is fully ripe.”(B) 16 So the one who was sitting on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.
17 Then another angel came out of the temple in heaven who also had a sharp sickle. 18 Then another angel [came] from the altar,[a] [who] was in charge of the fire, and cried out in a loud voice to the one who had the sharp sickle, “Use your sharp sickle and cut the clusters from the earth’s vines, for its grapes are ripe.” 19 So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and cut the earth’s vintage. He threw it into the great wine press of God’s fury.(C)

Harvesting the Earth and Trampling the Winepress
14 I looked, and there before me was a white cloud,(A) and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man[a](B) with a crown(C) of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. 15 Then another angel came out of the temple(D) and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle(E) and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest(F) of the earth is ripe.” 16 So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.
17 Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.(G) 18 Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar(H) and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, “Take your sharp sickle(I) and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because its grapes are ripe.” 19 The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath.(J)
