The Seventh Bowl

17 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon (A)the air, and a (B)loud voice came out of the (C)sanctuary 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 man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty. 19 (H)And the great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the [a]nations fell. (I)Babylon the great was (J)remembered before God, to give her (K)the cup of the wine of the wrath of His rage. 20 And (L)every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. 21 And (M)huge [b]hailstones, about one [c]talent each, *came down from heaven upon men; and men (N)blasphemed God because of the (O)plague of the hail, because its plague *was extremely [d]severe.

17 And the seventh poured out his bowl on the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, “It is done!” 18 And there were lightnings and sounds and thunders, and there was a great earthquake, as has not happened from the time humanity has been on the earth—so great in this way was the earthquake. 19 And the great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of his furious wrath.[a] 20 And every island fled, and mountains were not found. 21 And large hailstones, weighing about a hundred pounds,[b] came down from the sky upon people, and the people blasphemed God because of the plague of hail, because the plague of it was very great.
