Revelation 16:4-7
New American 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)the One 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, (J)Lord God, the Almighty, (K)true and righteous are Your judgments.”

Revelation 16:4-7
Revised Standard Version
4 The third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and the fountains of water, and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of water say,
“Just art thou in these thy judgments,
thou who art and wast, O Holy One.
6 For men have shed the blood of saints and prophets,
and thou hast given them blood to drink.
It is their due!”
7 And I heard the altar cry,
“Yea, Lord God the Almighty,
true and just are thy judgments!”
