Revelation 8:3-13
New American Standard Bible
3 (A)Another angel came and stood at the (B)altar, holding a (C)golden censer; and much (D)incense was given to him, so that he might [a]add it to the (E)prayers of all the [b]saints on the (F)golden altar which was before the throne. 4 And (G)the smoke of the incense ascended from the angel’s hand with the prayers of the [c]saints before God. 5 Then the angel [d]took the [e]censer and (H)filled it with the fire of the altar, and (I)hurled it to the earth; and there were (J)peals of thunder and sounds, and flashes of lightning and an (K)earthquake.
6 (L)And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them.
7 The first sounded, and there was (M)hail and fire mixed with blood, and it was hurled to the earth; and (N)a third of the earth was burned up, and (O)a third of the (P)trees were burned up, and all the green (Q)grass was burned up.
8 The second angel sounded, and something like a great (R)mountain burning with fire was hurled into the sea; and (S)a third of the (T)sea became blood, 9 and (U)a third of the creatures which were in the sea [f]and had life, died; and a third of the (V)ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel sounded, and a great star (W)fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a (X)third of the rivers and on the (Y)springs of waters. 11 The star is named Wormwood; and a (Z)third of the waters became (AA)wormwood, and many people died from the waters because they were made bitter.
12 The fourth angel sounded, and a (AB)third of the (AC)sun, a third of the (AD)moon, and a (AE)third of the (AF)stars were struck, so that a (AG)third of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a (AH)third of it, and the night in the same way.
13 Then I looked, and I heard [g]an eagle flying in (AI)midheaven, saying with a loud voice, “(AJ)Woe, woe, woe to (AK)those who live on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the (AL)three angels who are about to sound!”
