The Seven Trumpets

⁶ Now the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to blow them.

⁷ The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed ^(D)hail and ^(E)fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a ^(F)third of the earth was burned up, and a third of ^(G)the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.

⁸ The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like ^(H)a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea ^(I)became blood. ⁹ A third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of ^(J)the ships were destroyed.

¹⁰ The third angel blew his trumpet, and ^(K)a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on ^(L)the springs of water. ¹¹ The name of the star is Wormwood.^[b] A third of the waters ^(M)became wormwood, and many people died from the water, ^(N)because it had been made bitter.

¹² The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of ^(O)the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be 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 directly overhead, ^(P)“Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, at the blasts of the other trumpets that the three angels are about to blow!”
