Revelation 16:4-7
Christian Standard Bible
The Third Bowl
4 The third[a] poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.(A) 5 I heard the angel of the waters say,
You are just,
the Holy One,(B) who is and who was,(C)
because you have passed judgment on these things.
6 Because they poured out
the blood of the saints and the prophets,(D)
you have given them blood to drink;
they deserve it!(E)
7 I heard the altar say,
Yes, Lord God, the Almighty,
true and just are your judgments.(F)

Revelation 16:4-7
New Living Translation
4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs, and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel who had authority over all water saying,
“You are just, O Holy One, who is and who always was,
because you have sent these judgments.
6 Since they shed the blood
of your holy people and your prophets,
you have given them blood to drink.
It is their just reward.”
7 And I heard a voice from the altar,[a] saying,
“Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty,
your judgments are true and just.”
