1Then I heard a loud voice speak from God's house in heaven . It said to the seven angels , ‘Take your seven bowls that are full of God's anger . Go and pour them out on the earth.’
2The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land. As a result, very bad and painful sores appeared on people's skin. Everyone who had the wild animal's mark on them and who worshipped the animal's image had those sores.
3Then the second angel poured out his bowl on the sea. As a result, the sea became like the blood of a dead person. Everything that was living in the sea then died.
4Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and on the springs of water. As a result, all the water became blood.
5Then I heard the voice of the angel who had authority over the waters. He said to God,
‘Holy One , you live now and you have always lived.
You are right in everything that you decide.
Now you have judged these people.
6They have killed your holy people and your prophets .
So now you have given them blood to drink.
That is the punishment that they deserve .’
7Then I heard a voice from the altar in heaven. It said,
‘Yes, Lord God, you have all power and authority.
When you judge people,
you do what is right and fair.’
8Then the fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun. God gave authority to the sun so that it burned people with fire.
9The strong heat burned people and it hurt them very much. As a result, they said bad things against God's name, because he had the power to cause these terrible troubles. But they refused to change how they lived. They refused to praise God for his great power.
10Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the wild animal. As a result, the whole kingdom that the wild animal ruled became dark. People were biting their tongues because of their great pain.
11They cursed the God of heaven because of their pain and because of the sores on their skin. But they did not stop doing bad things.
12Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great Euphrates River. As a result, the river became dry. This prepared a way for kings from the east to march across it.
13Then I saw three bad spirits that looked like frogs . One bad spirit came out of the dragon's mouth. Another one came out of the first wild animal's mouth. The third one came out of the false prophet's mouth.[#16:13 We read about the in Revelation 12:3-4.]
14Those bad spirits are the spirits of demons . They had the power to do miracles . They went to all the rulers in the whole world, to bring them together to fight in a big war. That war will happen on the great day of God, who has all power and authority.
15The Lord says: ‘Listen! I will come secretly, like someone who robs people. If you continue to watch carefully, you will be happy. Keep your clothes with you all the time. Then, when I come, you will not be ashamed because you have no clothes.’[#16:15 The Lord Jesus is speaking here. He is telling his people to be ready for him when he comes. He may come at any time, day or night. See 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3.]
16Then the bad spirits brought the rulers together to fight in the big war. They came to the place that is called Armageddon in the Hebrew language.
17Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. A voice spoke loudly from the throne in God's house. The voice said, ‘Now it has happened!’
18There was a great storm, with bright lightning and loud noises of thunder . The ground shook with a strong earthquake . The earthquake was stronger than anything that had happened since people first lived on the earth.
19As a result, the great city of Babylon broke into three parts. When the ground shook, it also destroyed the big cities of other nations in the world. God did not forget the evil things that the people of the great city of Babylon had done. So they had to drink wine from the cup of God's great anger.
20When the ground shook, every island in the sea disappeared . There were no more mountains anywhere.
21Strong rain with stones of ice fell from the sky. The stones hit people and caused them great pain. The weight of each stone was about 50 kilograms. The people cursed God because the strong rain and the stones of ice caused them to have such terrible pain.
