“It will come about in all the land,”
Declares the Lord,
“That (A)two parts in it will be cut off and perish;
But the third will be left in it.
“And I will bring the third part through the (B)fire,
Refine them as silver is refined,
And test them as gold is tested.
They will (C)call on My name,
And I will (D)answer them;
I will say, ‘They are (E)My people,’
And they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”

12 The fourth angel sounded, and a (P)third of the (Q)sun and a third of the (R)moon and a (S)third of the (T)stars were struck, so that a (U)third of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a (V)third of it, and the night in the same way.
