Vredesskålarna hälls ut
16 Och jag hörde en mäktig röst från templet som ropade till de sju änglarna: Gå nu och töm de sju skålarna med Guds vrede över jorden.
2 Då lämnade den första ängeln templet, och tömde sin skål över jorden, och fruktansvärda bölder slog upp på var och en som bar vilddjurets märke och tillbad dess avbild.
3 Den andra ängeln tömde sin skål över havet, och vattnet blev som blodet från en död människa, och allt som fanns i havet dog.
4 Den tredje ängeln tömde sin skål över floderna och vattenkällorna, och de förvandlades till blod.
5 Och jag hörde vattnets ängel förklara: Du är rättfärdig när du sätter din dom i verket, du Helige som är och som var.
6 Dina heliga och dina profeter har lidit martyrdöden, och deras blod har hällts ut över jorden. Nu har du i din tur gett blod att dricka åt dem som mördade dem. Det är deras rättvisa lön.
7 Och jag hörde ängeln vid altaret säga: Ja, Herre Gud Allsmäktig, dina domar är rättfärdiga och sanna.
8 Sedan tömde den fjärde ängeln sin skål över solen, och fick den att bränna människor med sin eld.
9 De brändes av denna våldsamma hetta och förbannade Gud som sände plågorna, men ingen omvände sig och gav honom äran.
10 Sedan tömde den femte ängeln sin skål över den tron, som tillhörde vilddjuret, och hans rike täcktes av mörker. Och de människor som levde där bet sönder sina tungor av smärta
11 och förbannade himlens Gud för sina plågor och sår, men de vägrade att upphöra med sina onda handlingar.
12 Den sjätte ängeln tömde sin skål över den stora floden Eufrat, och den torkade ut, så att kungarna från öster utan hinder kunde marschera med sina arméer mot väster.
13 Och jag såg tre onda andar, förklädda till paddor, hoppa fram ur drakens, vilddjurets och den falske profetens mun.
14 Dessa undergörande onda andar övertalade världens alla ledare att samla sig till strid mot Herren, på den store allsmäktige Gudens domsdag.
15 Var på er vakt för jag ska komma lika oväntat som en tjuv! Välsignade är alla de som väntar på mig, alla som har sina kläder färdiga, och inte behöver gå nakna och skämmas.
16 Och de samlade alla världens arméer nära en plats som på hebreiska kallas Harmagedon.
17 Sedan tömde den sjunde ängeln sin skål i luften. Och ett högt rop kom från tronen i templet som står i himlen: Det är gjort!
18 Då mullrade och dånade åskan, och blixtarna flammade, och det blev en stor jordbävning med en omfattning utan motstycke i den mänskliga historien.
19 Den stora staden Babylon delades i tre delar, och städer runt om i världen föll ihop i ruinhögar, och Gud kom ihåg alla Babylons synder och straffade dem ända till sista droppen av sitt vredesvin.
20 Alla öar försvann och bergen jämnades ut,
21 och en fruktansvärd hagelstorm kom från himlen och träffade människorna på jorden, och de förbannade Gud för denna svåra plåga.

16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple say to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the seven bowls of God’s anger on the earth.” 2 So the first angel poured his bowl on the earth, and a nasty and terrible sore appeared on the people who had the beast’s mark and worshipped its image. 3 The second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and the sea turned into blood, like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing in the sea died. 4 The third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and springs of water, and they turned into blood. 5 Then I heard the angel of the waters say,
“You are just, holy one, who is and was,
because you have given these judgments.
6 They poured out the blood of saints and prophets,
and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve it!”
7 And I heard the altar say,
“Yes, Lord God Almighty, your judgments are true and just.”
8 The fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to burn people with fire. 9 The people were burned by intense heat, and they cursed the name of the God who had power over these plagues. But they didn’t change their hearts and lives and give him glory. 10 The fifth angel poured his bowl over the beast’s throne, and darkness covered its kingdom. People bit their tongues because of their pain, 11 and they cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and sores; but they didn’t turn away from what they had done.
12 Then the sixth angel poured his bowl on the great river Euphrates. Its water was dried up so that the way was ready for the kings from the east. 13 Then I saw three unclean spirits, like frogs, come from the dragon’s mouth, the beast’s mouth, and the mouth of the false prophet. 14 These are demonic spirits that do signs. They go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. (15 Look! I’m coming like a thief! Favored are those who stay awake and clothed so that they don’t go around naked and exposed to shame.) 16 The spirits gathered them at the place that is called in Hebrew, Harmagedon.[a]
17 Then the seventh angel poured his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out from the temple, from the throne, saying, “It is done!” 18 There were lightning strikes, voices, and thunder, and a great earthquake occurred. The earthquake was greater than any that have occurred since there have been people on earth. 19 The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. God remembered Babylon the great so that he gave her the wine cup of his furious anger. 20 Every island fled, and the mountains disappeared. 21 Huge hailstones weighing about one hundred pounds came down from heaven on the people. They cursed God for the plague of hail, because the plague was so terrible.

Wycliffe Bible
16 And I heard a great voice from heaven, saying to the seven angels, Go ye, and shed out the seven vials of God's wrath into the earth.
2 And the first angel went, and shedded out his vial into the earth; and a wound fierce and worst was made on all that had the character of the beast [and a wound fierce and worst was made on all that had the character, or mark, of the beast], and on them that worshipped the beast, and his image.
3 And the second angel shedded out his vial into the sea, and the blood was made, as of a dead thing; and each man living [and each soul living] was dead in the sea.
4 And the third angel shedded out his vial on the rivers, and on the wells of waters, [and blood is made]. [And the third angel shedded out his vial upon the floods, and upon the wells of waters, and blood is made.]
5 and said [And I heard the angel of waters, saying], Just art thou, Lord, that art, and that were holy [and that wast holy], that deemest these things;
6 for they shedded out the blood of hallows and prophets, and thou hast given to them blood to drink [and thou hast given them blood to drink]; for they be worthy.
7 And I heard another [angel] saying, Yea! Lord God almighty, true and just be thy dooms.
8 And the fourth angel shedded out his vial into the sun, and it was given to him to torment men with heat and fire.
9 And men parched with great heat [And men sweltered with great heat], and blasphemed the name of God having power on [upon] these plagues, neither they did penance, that they should give glory to him.
10 And the fifth angel shedded out his vial on the seat of the beast [And the fifth angel shedded out his vial upon the seat of the beast], and his kingdom was made dark; and they ate together their tongues for sorrow,
11 and they blasphemed God of heaven, for sorrows of their wounds [and they blasphemed God of heaven, for sorrows and their wounds]; and they did not penance of their works.
12 And the sixth angel shedded out his vial into that great river Euphrates [into that great flood Euphrates], and dried the water of it, that [the] way were made ready [that the way were readied] to kings from the sun rising.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits by the manner of frogs go out of the mouth of the dragon, and of the mouth of the beast, and of the mouth of the false prophet.
14 For they be spirits of devils, making signs [making signs, or wonders], and they go forth to kings of all earth, to gather them into [a] battle, to the great day of almighty God.
15 Lo! I come, as a night thief. Blessed is he that waketh, and keepeth his clothes, that he wander not naked, and that they see not the filthhood of him [and they see his filthhood].
16 And he shall gather them into a place [And he gathered them into a place], that is called in Hebrew Armageddon.
17 And the seventh angel shedded out his vial into the air, and a great voice went out of heaven from the throne, and said, It is done [saying, It is done].
18 And lightnings were made, and voices, and thunders; and a great earth-moving was made, which manner never was, since men were on earth [since men were upon earth], such earth-moving so great.
19 And the great city was made into three parts, and the cities of heathen men felled down [And the great city is broken into three parts, and the cities of heathen men fell down]; and great Babylon came into mind before God, to give to it the cup of wine of the indignation of his wrath.
20 And each isle flew away, and hills be not found.
21 And [a] great hail as a talent came down from heaven into men; and men blasphemed God, for the plague of hail, for it was made full great.

The Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath
16 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple(A) saying to the seven angels,(B) “Go, pour out the seven bowls of God’s wrath on the earth.”(C)
2 The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land,(D) and ugly, festering sores(E) broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.(F)
3 The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it turned into blood like that of a dead person, and every living thing in the sea died.(G)
4 The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water,(H) and they became blood.(I) 5 Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:
“You are just in these judgments,(J) O Holy One,(K)
you who are and who were;(L)
6 for they have shed the blood of your holy people and your prophets,(M)
and you have given them blood to drink(N) as they deserve.”
7 And I heard the altar(O) respond:
8 The fourth angel(R) poured out his bowl on the sun,(S) and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire.(T) 9 They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God,(U) who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent(V) and glorify him.(W)
10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast,(X) and its kingdom was plunged into darkness.(Y) People gnawed their tongues in agony 11 and cursed(Z) the God of heaven(AA) because of their pains and their sores,(AB) but they refused to repent of what they had done.(AC)
12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates,(AD) and its water was dried up to prepare the way(AE) for the kings from the East.(AF) 13 Then I saw three impure spirits(AG) that looked like frogs;(AH) they came out of the mouth of the dragon,(AI) out of the mouth of the beast(AJ) and out of the mouth of the false prophet.(AK) 14 They are demonic spirits(AL) that perform signs,(AM) and they go out to the kings of the whole world,(AN) to gather them for the battle(AO) on the great day(AP) of God Almighty.
15 “Look, I come like a thief!(AQ) Blessed is the one who stays awake(AR) and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”(AS)

17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air,(AW) and out of the temple(AX) came a loud voice(AY) from the throne, saying, “It is done!”(AZ) 18 Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder(BA) and a severe earthquake.(BB) No earthquake like it has ever occurred since mankind has been on earth,(BC) so tremendous was the quake. 19 The great city(BD) split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. God remembered(BE) Babylon the Great(BF) and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath.(BG) 20 Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found.(BH) 21 From the sky huge hailstones,(BI) each weighing about a hundred pounds,[a] fell on people. And they cursed God(BJ) on account of the plague of hail,(BK) because the plague was so terrible.
