The Seventh Bowl of Wrath
17 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon (A)the air, and a (B)loud voice came out of the [a](C)temple from the throne, saying, “(D)It is done.” 18 And there were flashes of (E)lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was (F)a great earthquake, (G)such as there had not been since mankind came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty. 19 (H)The great city [b]was split into three parts, and the cities of the [c]nations fell. (I)Babylon the great was (J)remembered in the sight of God, to give her (K)the cup of the wine of [d]His fierce wrath. 20 And (L)every island fled, and no mountains were found. 21 And (M)huge [e]hailstones, weighing about [f]a talent each, *came down from heaven upon people; and people (N)blasphemed God because of the (O)plague of the hail, because [g]the hailstone plague *was extremely [h]severe.
