rsv Revelation:7-9

rsv@Revelation:7:1 @ After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree.

rsv@Revelation:7:2 @ Then I saw another angel ascend from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea,

rsv@Revelation:7:3 @ saying, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads."

rsv@Revelation:7:4 @ And I heard the number of the sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, out of every tribe of the sons of Israel,

rsv@Revelation:7:5 @ twelve thousand sealed out of the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand of the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand of the tribe of Gad,

rsv@Revelation:7:6 @ twelve thousand of the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand of the tribe of Naph'tali, twelve thousand of the tribe of Manas'seh,

rsv@Revelation:7:7 @ twelve thousand of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand of the tribe of Is'sachar,

rsv@Revelation:7:8 @ twelve thousand of the tribe of Zeb'ulun, twelve thousand of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand sealed out of the tribe of Benjamin.

rsv@Revelation:7:9 @ After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

rsv@Revelation:7:10 @ and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!"

rsv@Revelation:7:11 @ And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,

rsv@Revelation:7:12 @ saying, "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen."

rsv@Revelation:7:13 @ Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?"

rsv@Revelation:7:14 @ I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:7:15 @ Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night within his temple; and he who sits upon the throne will shelter them with his presence.

rsv@Revelation:7:16 @ They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.

rsv@Revelation:7:17 @ For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water; and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

rsv@Revelation:8:1 @ When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

rsv@Revelation:8:2 @ Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

rsv@Revelation:8:3 @ 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;

rsv@Revelation:8:4 @ and the smoke of the incense rose with the prayers of the saints from the hand of the angel before God.

rsv@Revelation:8:5 @ Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth; and there were peals of thunder, voices, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

rsv@Revelation:8:6 @ Now the seven angels who had the seven trumpets made ready to blow them.

rsv@Revelation:8:7 @ 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.

rsv@Revelation:8:8 @ The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea;

rsv@Revelation:8:9 @ 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.

rsv@Revelation:8:10 @ 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.

rsv@Revelation:8:11 @ 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.

rsv@Revelation:8:12 @ 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.

rsv@Revelation:8:13 @ 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!"

rsv@Revelation:9:1 @ And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key of the shaft of the bottomless pit;

rsv@Revelation:9:2 @ he opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft.

rsv@Revelation:9:3 @ Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth;

rsv@Revelation:9:4 @ they were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green growth or any tree, but only those of mankind who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads;

rsv@Revelation:9:5 @ they were allowed to torture them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torture was like the torture of a scorpion, when it stings a man.

rsv@Revelation:9:6 @ And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death will fly from them.

rsv@Revelation:9:7 @ In appearance the locusts were like horses arrayed for battle; on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces,

rsv@Revelation:9:8 @ their hair like women's hair, and their teeth like lions' teeth;

rsv@Revelation:9:9 @ they had scales like iron breastplates, and the noise of their wings was like the noise of many chariots with horses rushing into battle.

rsv@Revelation:9:10 @ They have tails like scorpions, and stings, and their power of hurting men for five months lies in their tails.

rsv@Revelation:9:11 @ They have as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit; his name in Hebrew is Abad'don, and in Greek he is called Apol'lyon.

rsv@Revelation:9:12 @ The first woe has passed; behold, two woes are still to come.

rsv@Revelation:9:13 @ Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God,

rsv@Revelation:9:14 @ saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphra'tes."

rsv@Revelation:9:15 @ So the four angels were released, who had been held ready for the hour, the day, the month, and the year, to kill a third of mankind.

rsv@Revelation:9:16 @ The number of the troops of cavalry was twice ten thousand times ten thousand; I heard their number.

rsv@Revelation:9:17 @ And this was how I saw the horses in my vision: the riders wore breastplates the color of fire and of sapphire and of sulphur, and the heads of the horses were like lions' heads, and fire and smoke and sulphur issued from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:18 @ By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed, by the fire and smoke and sulphur issuing from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:19 @ For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; their tails are like serpents, with heads, and by means of them they wound.

rsv@Revelation:9:20 @ The rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands nor give up worshiping demons and idols of gold and silver and bronze and stone and wood, which cannot either see or hear or walk;

rsv@Revelation:9:21 @ nor did they repent of their murders or their sorceries or their immorality or their thefts.

rsv@Revelation:10:1 @ Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and his face was like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire.
