Revelation 8:11-13
Wycliffe Bible
11 And the name of the star is said Wormwood. And the third part of waters was made into wormwood; and many men were dead of the waters, for those were made bitter [for they be made bitter].
12 And the fourth angel trumpeted [And the fourth angel sang in trump]; and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of [the] stars, so that the third part of them was darked, and the third part of the day shined not [and the third part of the day shone not], and also of the night.
13 And I saw, and heard the voice of an eagle flying by the middle of heaven, and saying with a great voice, Woe! woe! woe! to men that dwell in earth, of the other voices of the three angels, that shall trumpet after [that were to sing in trump].

13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
