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 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. And a mighty shout came from the throne in the Temple, saying, “It is finished!” 18 Then the thunder crashed and rolled, and lightning flashed. And a great earthquake struck—the worst since people were placed on the earth. 19 The great city of Babylon split into three sections, and the cities of many nations fell into heaps of rubble. So God remembered all of Babylon’s sins, and he made her drink the cup that was filled with the wine of his fierce wrath. 20 And every island disappeared, and all the mountains were leveled. 21 There was a terrible hailstorm, and hailstones weighing as much as seventy-five pounds[a] fell from the sky onto the people below. They cursed God because of the terrible plague of the hailstorm.
