Det sjunde sigillet bryts
8 När Lammet bröt det sjunde sigillet, blev det tyst i himlen omkring en halv timme.
De sju änglarna med de sju basunerna
2 Och jag såg de sju änglarna[a] som står inför Gud, och åt dem gavs sju basuner. 3 Då kom en annan ängel, som hade ett rökelsekar av guld, och ställde sig vid altaret. Åt honom gavs mycket rökelse, som han skulle lägga till alla de heligas böner på guldaltaret framför tronen. 4 Och röken från rökelsen tillsammans med de heligas böner steg från ängelns hand upp inför Gud. 5 Ängeln tog rökelsekaret, fyllde det med elden från altaret och kastade ner den på jorden, och det åskade, dundrade och blixtrade och jorden skälvde. 6 Och de sju änglarna med de sju basunerna gjorde sig redo att blåsa i dem.
De fyra första basunerna
7 Den första ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då kom det hagel och eld, blandat med blod, och det kastades ner på jorden. En tredjedel av jorden brändes upp liksom en tredjedel av träden, och allt grönt gräs sveddes av.
8 Den andra ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då var det som om ett stort brinnande berg hade kastats i havet. En tredjedel av havet blev till blod, 9 och en tredjedel av allt liv i havet dog, och en tredjedel av alla fartyg gick under.
10 Den tredje ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då föll en stor stjärna, brinnande som en fackla, ner från himlen, och den föll över en tredjedel av floderna och vattenkällorna. 11 Stjärnans namn är Malört. En tredjedel av vattnen förvandlades då till malört, och många människor dog av vattnen, som hade blivit förgiftade.
12 Den fjärde ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då träffades en tredjedel av solen och en tredjedel av månen och en tredjedel av stjärnorna, så att tredjedelen av dem förmörkades och dagen förlorade tredjedelen av sitt ljus, och natten likaså.
13 Och jag såg, och jag hörde en örn flyga högst uppe på himlen. Den ropade med hög röst: "Ve, ve, ve över jordens invånare för de basunstötar som återstår, när de tre andra änglarna blåser i sina basuner."

The Seventh Seal and the Golden Censer
8 When he opened the seventh seal,(A) there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 And I saw the seven angels(B) who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.(C)
3 Another angel,(D) who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people,(E) on the golden altar(F) in front of the throne. 4 The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God(G) from the angel’s hand. 5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar,(H) and hurled it on the earth; and there came peals of thunder,(I) rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake.(J)
The Trumpets
6 Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets(K) prepared to sound them.
7 The first angel(L) sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire(M) mixed with blood, and it was hurled down on the earth. A third(N) of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.(O)
8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain,(P) all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third(Q) of the sea turned into blood,(R) 9 a third(S) of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky(T) on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water(U)— 11 the name of the star is Wormwood.[a] A third(V) of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.(W)
12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third(X) of them turned dark.(Y) A third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night.(Z)
13 As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying in midair(AA) call out in a loud voice: “Woe! Woe! Woe(AB) to the inhabitants of the earth,(AC) because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the other three angels!”

The Seventh Seal and the Golden Censer
8 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer; and he was given much incense to mingle with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar before the throne; 4 and the smoke of the incense rose with the prayers of the saints from the hand of the angel before God. 5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth;[a] and there were peals of thunder, loud noises, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
The Seven Trumpets
6 Now the seven angels who had the seven trumpets made ready to blow them.
7 The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, which fell on the earth; and a third of the earth was burnt up, and a third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8 The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea; 9 and a third of the sea became blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the fountains of water. 11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died of the water, because it was made bitter.
12 The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light was darkened; a third of the day was kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.
13 Then I looked, and I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice, as it flew in midheaven, “Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, at the blasts of the other trumpets which the three angels are about to blow!”
