Revelation 15

English Standard Version

The Seven Angels with Seven Plagues

15 Then ^(A)I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing, ^(B)seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is finished.

²And I saw ^(C)what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire—and also those ^(D)who had conquered the beast and its image and ^(E)the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass ^(F)with harps of God in their hands. ³And they sing ^(G)the song of Moses, ^(H)the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,

^(I)“Great and amazing are your deeds,
    O Lord God the Almighty!
^(J)Just and true are your ways,
    O King of the nations!^[a]
⁴^(K)Who will not fear, O Lord,
    and glorify your name?
For you alone are ^(L)holy.
    ^(M)All nations will come
    and worship you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.”

⁵After this I looked, and ^(N)the sanctuary of ^(O)the tent^[b] of witness in heaven was opened, ⁶and out of the sanctuary came ^(P)the seven angels with the seven plagues, clothed in pure, bright ^(Q)linen, ^(R)with golden sashes around their chests. ⁷And one of ^(S)the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven ^(T)golden bowls full of the wrath of God ^(U)who lives forever and ever, ⁸and ^(V)the sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and ^(W)no one could enter the sanctuary until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished.

Song of Moses and the Lamb

15 Then I saw another great and awe-inspiring sign in heaven. There were seven angels with seven plagues—and these are the last, for with them God’s anger is brought to an end. ²Then I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mixed with fire. Those who gained victory over the beast, its image, and the number of its name were standing by the glass sea, holding harps from God. ³They sing the song of Moses, God’s servant, and the song of the Lamb, saying,

“Great and awe-inspiring are your works,
        Lord God Almighty.
Just and true are your ways,
        king of the nations.
⁴Who won’t fear you, Lord, and glorify your name?
        You alone are holy.
All nations will come and fall down in worship before you,
        for your acts of justice have been revealed.”

Seven bowl plagues

⁵After this I looked, and the temple in heaven—that is, the tent of witness—was opened. ⁶The seven angels, who have the seven plagues, came out of the temple. They were clothed in pure bright linen and had gold sashes around their waists. ⁷Then one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven gold bowls full of the anger of the God who lives forever and always. ⁸The temple was filled with smoke from God’s glory and power, and no one could go into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven last angels were brought to an end.
