The Proclamation of Three Angels

Then I saw another angel flying high overhead,(A) having the eternal gospel to announce to the inhabitants of the earth—to every nation, tribe, language, and people.(B) He spoke with a loud voice: “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come. Worship the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.”

A second angel[a] followed, saying: “It has fallen, Babylon the Great has fallen,[b] who made all nations drink the wine of her sexual immorality,[c] which brings wrath.”(C)

And a third angel[d] followed them and spoke with a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he will also drink the wine of God’s wrath, which is mixed full strength in the cup of His anger.(D) He will be tormented with fire and sulfur(E) in the sight of the holy angels and in the sight of the Lamb, 11 and the smoke of their torment will go up forever and ever.(F) There is no rest[e] day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or anyone who receives the mark of his name.
