The Seventh Seal
8 When He opened the (A)seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 Then I saw (B)the seven angels who stand before God, and seven (C)trumpets were given to them.
3 (D)And another angel came and stood at the (E)altar, having a (F)golden censer; and much (G)incense was given to him, so that he might [a]add it to the (H)prayers of all the saints on the (I)golden altar which was before the throne. 4 And (J)the smoke of the incense went up [b]with the prayers of the saints, out of the angel’s hand, before God. 5 Then the angel [c]took the censer and (K)filled it with the fire of the altar, and (L)threw it to the earth; and there followed (M)peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an (N)earthquake.
The Seven Trumpets
6 (O)And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them.
7 And the first sounded, and there came (P)hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth; and (Q)a third of the earth was burned up, and (R)a third of the (S)trees were burned up, and all the green (T)grass was burned up.
8 And the second angel sounded, and something like a great (U)mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and (V)a third of the (W)sea became blood, 9 and (X)a third of the creatures which were in the sea—those which had life—died; and a third of the (Y)ships were destroyed.
10 And the third angel sounded, and a great star (Z)fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a (AA)third of the rivers and on the (AB)springs of waters. 11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and a (AC)third of the waters became (AD)wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and a (AE)third of the (AF)sun and a third of the (AG)moon and a (AH)third of the (AI)stars were struck, so that a (AJ)third of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a (AK)third of it, and the night in the same way.
13 Then I looked, and I heard [d]an eagle flying in (AL)midheaven, saying with a loud voice, “(AM)Woe, woe, woe to (AN)those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the (AO)three angels who are about to sound!”

Revelation 8
King James Version
8 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.
5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
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!
啟 示 錄 8
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
第七个封印
8 羔羊打开第七个封印时，天堂里的寂静达半小时之久。 2 我看见站立在上帝面前的七位天使，每人都被授予了一只号角。
3 然后，另外一个天使过来，手捧金香炉，站在祭坛边。他接受了许多香，并与所有上帝子民的祈祷一起献在宝座前的金坛上。 4 缭绕的香烟和圣徒的祷告一起从天使的手中升起，飘到了上帝面前。 5 接着，那位天使手捧香炉，用它盛满祭坛上的火，然后扔向大地。随之，发生了雷鸣、轰响、闪电和地震。
第一个号角吹响了
6 拿着七支号角的七位天使，做好了吹奏准备。
7 第一位天使吹响号角，于是冰雹和火伴着血水，降在地上。大地的三分之一燃烧起来；树木的三分之一被烧毁；所有的青草都被烧光。 8 第二位天使吹响号角，一座好像是燃烧着的山被投进了大海。海水的三分之一变成血；
9 海里的生物死了三分之一；船只的三分之一也被毁。
10 第三位天使吹响号角就有一颗燃着的巨星似的火炬从天上坠落。这颗巨星落在三分之一的江河和泉源上。 11 巨星的名字叫茵陈（一种味苦的植物，代表悲苦）。于是水的三分之一变得又苦又涩。因为水变苦，许多人喝了这水都死去了。
12 第四位天使吹响号角，太阳、月亮和星辰的三分之一遭到撞击，于是，三分之一的日月星辰变得暗淡无光，结果白天的三分之一没有光亮，黑夜的三分之一也没有光。
13 我看到一只雄鹰在高空中飞翔，并听见它在高声呼喊∶“因为剩下的三位天使要吹响他们的号角了，地上的居民要遭殃了，要大难临头了！”

The Lamb Opens the Seventh Seal
8 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
Seven Angels with Seven Trumpets
2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand in God’s presence, and they were given seven trumpets. 3 Another angel came with a gold incense burner and stood at the altar. He was given a lot of incense to offer on the gold altar in front of the throne. He offered it with the prayers of all of God’s people. 4 The smoke from the incense went up from the angel’s hand to God along with the prayers of God’s people. 5 The angel took the incense burner, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it on the earth. Then there was thunder, noise, lightning, and an earthquake.
6 The seven angels who had the seven trumpets got ready to blow them.
The First Four Angels Blow Their Trumpets
7 When the first angel blew his trumpet, hail and fire were mixed with blood, and were thrown on the earth. One-third of the earth was burned up, one-third of the trees was burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
8 When the second angel blew his trumpet, something like a huge mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. One-third of the sea turned into blood, 9 one-third of the creatures that were living in the sea died, and one-third of the ships were destroyed.
10 When the third angel blew his trumpet, a huge star flaming like a torch fell from the sky. It fell on one-third of the rivers and on the springs. 11 That star was named Wormwood. One-third of the water turned into wormwood, and many people died from this water because it had turned bitter.
12 When the fourth angel blew his trumpet, one-third of the sun, one-third of the moon, and one-third of the stars were struck so that one-third of them turned dark. There was no light for one-third of the day and one-third of the night.
13 I saw an eagle flying overhead, and I heard it say in a loud voice, “Catastrophe, catastrophe, catastrophe for those living on earth, because of the remaining trumpet blasts which the three angels are about to blow.”
