Revelation 16
Easy-to-Read Version
The Bowls Filled With God’s Anger
16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple. It said to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the seven bowls of God’s anger on the earth.”
2 The first angel left. He poured out his bowl on the land. Then all those who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped its idol got sores that were ugly and painful.
3 The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea. Then the sea became blood like a dead man’s blood. And everything living in the sea died.
4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and the springs of water. The rivers and the springs of water became blood. 5 Then I heard the angel of the waters say to God,
“You are the one who is and who always was.
You are the Holy One.
You are right in these judgments you have made.
6 The people have spilled the blood
of your holy people and your prophets.
Now you have given those people blood to drink.
This is what they deserve.”
7 And I heard the altar say,
“Yes, Lord God All-Powerful,
your judgments are true and right.”
8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun. The sun was given power to burn the people with fire. 9 The people were burned by the great heat. They cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues. But they refused to change their hearts and lives and give glory to God.
10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast. And darkness covered the beast’s kingdom. People bit their tongues because of the pain. 11 They cursed the God of heaven because of their pain and the sores they had. But they refused to change their hearts and turn away from the evil things they did.
12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates. The water in the river was dried up. This prepared the way for the rulers from the east to come. 13 Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs. They came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 These evil spirits are the spirits of demons. They have power to do miracles.[a] They go out to the rulers of the whole world to gather them for battle on the great day of God All-Powerful.
15 “Listen! I will come at a time you don’t expect, like a thief. Great blessings belong to those who stay awake and keep their clothes with them. They will not have to go without clothes and be ashamed for people to see them.”
16 Then the evil spirits gathered the rulers together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. Then a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne. It said, “It is finished!” 18 Then there were flashes of lightning, noises, thunder, and a big earthquake. This was the worst earthquake that has ever happened since people have been on earth. 19 The great city split into three parts. The cities of the nations were destroyed. And God did not forget to punish Babylon the Great. He gave that city the cup filled with the wine of his terrible anger. 20 Every island disappeared and there were no more mountains. 21 Giant hailstones fell on the people from the sky. These hailstones weighed almost 100 pounds[b] each. People cursed God because of this plague of the hail. It was terrible.

Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version
Mga Mangkok ng Poot ng Diyos
16 At narinig ko mula sa templo ang isang malakas na tinig na nagsasabi sa pitong anghel, “Humayo kayo at ibuhos ninyo sa lupa ang pitong mangkok ng poot ng Diyos.” 2 Kaya (A) umalis ang unang anghel at ibinuhos ang kanyang mangkok sa lupa, at nagkaroon ng nakapandidiri at napakasakit na sugat ang mga may tatak ng halimaw at mga sumasamba sa larawan nito.
3 Ibinuhos ng ikalawang anghel ang kanyang mangkok sa dagat, at ito'y naging tulad ng dugo ng isang bangkay, at ang bawat nilalang na may buhay sa dagat ay namatay. 4 Ibinuhos (B) ng ikatlong anghel ang kanyang mangkok sa mga ilog at sa mga bukal ng tubig, at naging dugo ang mga ito. 5 At narinig ko ang anghel ng tubig na nagsasabi,
“O Banal, ikaw na siyang ngayon at noon,
ikaw ay Makatarungan sa iyong ginawang paghatol;
6 Sapagkat sila ang nagpadanak ng dugo ng mga banal at ng mga propeta,
binigyan mo sila ng dugo para inumin.
Dapat lang iyan sa kanila!”
7 At narinig ko ang dambana na nagsasabi,
“Opo, Panginoong Diyos na Makapangyarihan sa lahat,
ang mga hatol mo ay totoo at makatarungan!”
8 At ibinuhos ng ikaapat na anghel ang kanyang mangkok sa araw, at pinayagan itong pasuin ang mga tao, 9 at sila ay napaso sa matinding init. Ngunit nilait nila ang pangalan ng Diyos na may kapangyarihan sa mga salot na ito, at hindi sila nagsisi ni lumuwalhati sa kanya.
10 Ibinuhos (C) ng ikalimang anghel ang kanyang mangkok sa trono ng halimaw, at ang kanyang kaharian ay nagdilim. Dahil sa kirot, kinagat ng mga tao ang kanilang mga dila. 11 Nilait nila ang Diyos na nasa langit dahil sa kanilang mga hirap at mga sugat, at hindi nila pinagsisihan ang kanilang mga gawa.
12 (D) Ibinuhos ng ikaanim na anghel ang kanyang mangkok sa malaking Ilog Eufrates, at natuyo ang tubig nito upang ihanda ang daan para sa mga hari mula sa silangan. 13 Pagkatapos, nakita kong lumalabas mula sa bibig ng dragon, mula sa bibig ng halimaw, at mula sa bibig ng huwad na propeta ang tatlong maruruming espiritu na parang mga palaka. 14 Sapagkat ang mga ito'y mga espiritu ng demonyo na gumagawa ng mga tanda. Pumupunta sila sa mga hari ng buong sanlibutan upang tipunin sila para sa digmaan sa dakilang araw ng Diyos na Makapangyarihan sa lahat. 15 “Tandaan (E) ninyo, dumarating ako na tulad ng isang magnanakaw! Pinagpala ang laging nakahanda at nakadamit, upang hindi siya lumakad nang hubad at mapahiya sa madla.” 16 At (F) tinipon ng mga espiritu ang mga hari sa lugar na tinatawag sa wikang Hebreo na Armagedon.
17 At ibinuhos ng ikapitong anghel ang kanyang mangkok sa himpapawid, at mula sa templo ay lumabas ang isang malakas na tinig, mula sa trono, na nagsasabi, “Nangyari na!” 18 At (G) gumuhit ang mga kidlat, nagkaingay, dumagundong ang mga kulog, at lumindol ng malakas, na hindi pa nangyayari buhat nang magkatao sa lupa. Napakalakas ng lindol na iyon. 19 Nahati (H) sa tatlo ang malaking lungsod, at ang mga lungsod ng mga bansa ay nagbagsakan. Ibinaling ng Diyos ang kanyang pansin sa tanyag na Babilonia, at pinasaid niya rito ang kopa ng alak ng kanyang matinding poot. 20 Tumakas (I) ang bawat pulo at naglaho ang mga bundok na matagpuan. 21 Mula (J) sa langit ay bumagsak sa mga tao ang malalaking tipak ng yelo na tumitimbang ng halos isandaang libra, at nilait nila ang Diyos dahil doon. Kasindak-sindak ang salot na iyon.

New International Version
The Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath
16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple(A) saying to the seven angels,(B) “Go, pour out the seven bowls of God’s wrath on the earth.”(C)
2 The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land,(D) and ugly, festering sores(E) broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.(F)
3 The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it turned into blood like that of a dead person, and every living thing in the sea died.(G)
4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water,(H) and they became blood.(I) 5 Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:
“You are just in these judgments,(J) O Holy One,(K)
you who are and who were;(L)
6 for they have shed the blood of your holy people and your prophets,(M)
and you have given them blood to drink(N) as they deserve.”
7 And I heard the altar(O) respond:
8 The fourth angel(R) poured out his bowl on the sun,(S) and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire.(T) 9 They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God,(U) who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent(V) and glorify him.(W)
10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast,(X) and its kingdom was plunged into darkness.(Y) People gnawed their tongues in agony 11 and cursed(Z) the God of heaven(AA) because of their pains and their sores,(AB) but they refused to repent of what they had done.(AC)
12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates,(AD) and its water was dried up to prepare the way(AE) for the kings from the East.(AF) 13 Then I saw three impure spirits(AG) that looked like frogs;(AH) they came out of the mouth of the dragon,(AI) out of the mouth of the beast(AJ) and out of the mouth of the false prophet.(AK) 14 They are demonic spirits(AL) that perform signs,(AM) and they go out to the kings of the whole world,(AN) to gather them for the battle(AO) on the great day(AP) of God Almighty.
15 “Look, I come like a thief!(AQ) Blessed is the one who stays awake(AR) and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”(AS)
16 Then they gathered the kings together(AT) to the place that in Hebrew(AU) is called Armageddon.(AV)
17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air,(AW) and out of the temple(AX) came a loud voice(AY) from the throne, saying, “It is done!”(AZ) 18 Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder(BA) and a severe earthquake.(BB) No earthquake like it has ever occurred since mankind has been on earth,(BC) so tremendous was the quake. 19 The great city(BD) split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. God remembered(BE) Babylon the Great(BF) and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath.(BG) 20 Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found.(BH) 21 From the sky huge hailstones,(BI) each weighing about a hundred pounds,[a] fell on people. And they cursed God(BJ) on account of the plague of hail,(BK) because the plague was so terrible.
