English Standard Version

The Seventh Bowl

¹⁷ The seventh angel poured out his bowl into ^(A)the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, ^(B)“It is done!” ¹⁸ And there were ^(C)flashes of lightning, rumblings,^[a] peals of thunder, and ^(D)a great earthquake ^(E)such as there had never been since man was on the earth, so great was that earthquake. ^19 (F)The great city ^(G)was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God ^(H)remembered ^(I)Babylon the great, ^(J)to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath. ²⁰ And ^(K)every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found. ²¹ And ^(L)great hailstones, about one hundred pounds^[b] each, fell from heaven on people; and ^(M)they cursed God for ^(N)the plague of the hail, because the plague was so severe.

The Great Prostitute and the Beast

17 Then ^(O)one of the seven angels who had ^(P)the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the judgment of ^(Q)the great prostitute ^(R)who is seated on many waters, ^2 (S)with whom the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality, and ^(T)with the wine of whose sexual immorality ^(U)the dwellers on earth have become drunk.”
