Uppenbarelseboken 8

Det sjunde sigillet bryts
8 (A) När Lammet bröt det sjunde sigillet, blev det tyst i himlen i omkring en halvtimme.
De sju basunerna
2 (B) Och jag såg de sju änglarna som står inför Gud, och de fick sju basuner[a]. 3 (C) Och en annan ängel kom och ställde sig vid altaret med ett rökelsekar av guld. Han fick mycket rökelse att lägga tillsammans med alla de heligas böner på guldaltaret framför tronen. 4 Och röken från rökelsen steg från ängelns hand tillsammans med de heligas böner upp inför Gud.
5 (D) Och ängeln tog rökelsekaret, fyllde det med elden från altaret och kastade ner det på jorden, och det blev åska, dån och blixtar och jorden skakade. 6 Och de sju änglarna med de sju basunerna gjorde sig redo att blåsa i dem.
De fyra första basunerna
7 (E) Den första ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då kom hagel och eld, blandat med blod, och kastades ner på jorden. En tredjedel av jorden brann upp, och en tredjedel av träden brann upp, och allt grönt gräs brann upp.
8 (F) Den andra ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då var det som om ett stort brinnande berg kastades i havet. En tredjedel av havet förvandlades till blod, 9 och en tredjedel av allt liv i havet dog, och en tredjedel av alla fartyg gick under.
10 (G) Den tredje ängeln blåste i sin basun. Då föll en stor stjärna från himlen, brinnande som en fackla, och den föll över en tredjedel av floderna och vattenkällorna. 11 (H) Stjärnans namn är Malört. En tredjedel av vattnen förvandlades till malört[b], och många människor dog av vattnet som hade blivit bittert.
12 (I) 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 en tredjedel av dem förmörkades och dagen förlorade en tredjedel av sitt ljus, och natten likaså.
13 (J) Och jag såg, och jag hörde en örn som flög uppe på himlen och ropade med stark röst: "Ve, ve, ve över jordens invånare för de basunstötar som är kvar, när de tre andra änglarna blåser i sina basuner!"

Evangelical Heritage Version
The Seventh Seal: Seven Angels With Seven Trumpets
8 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Another angel, holding a gold censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given a large amount of incense to offer together with the prayers of all the saints on the gold altar that was in front of the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense went up from the hand of the angel before God, together with the prayers of the saints.
5 The angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it on the earth. Then there came crashes of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
The First Four Trumpets
6 The seven angels, who had the seven trumpets, prepared to sound them. 7 The first sounded his trumpet, and hail and fire mixed with blood were thrown on the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, and[a] a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
8 Then the second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea became blood, 9 a third of the creatures that live in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 Then the third angel sounded his trumpet, and a huge star, blazing like a lamp, fell from the sky. It fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. 11 The name of the star was Wormwood, and a third of the waters became wormwood.[b] Many of the people died from these waters because they had been made bitter.
12 Then the fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, as well as a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them became dark. And there was no light for a third of the day and likewise for the night.
13 Then I looked and I heard a single eagle[c] flying in the middle of the sky, saying with a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe to those whose home is on the earth because of the remaining trumpet blasts of the three angels who are about to sound their trumpets.”

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!
