Revelation 16:4-7
Legacy Standard Bible
4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the (A)rivers and the springs of waters, and they (B)became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying, “(C)Righteous are You, (D)who is and who was, O (E)Holy One, because You (F)judged these things; 6 for they poured out (G)the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them (H)blood to drink. They [a]deserve it.” 7 And I heard (I)the altar saying, “Yes, O [b](J)Lord God, the Almighty, (K)true and righteous are Your judgments.”

Revelation 16:4-7
International Standard Version
4 The third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they turned into blood. 5 Then I heard the angel in charge[a] of the water say,
“You are just. You are the one who is
and who was, the Holy One,
because you have judged these things.
6 You have given them blood to drink
because they spilled the blood of saints and prophets.
This is what they deserve.”
7 Then I heard the altar reply,
“Yes, Lord God Almighty,
your judgments are true and just.”
