Revelation 14:14-15:4

New International Version

Harvesting the Earth and Trampling the Winepress

¹⁴ I looked, and there before me was a white cloud,^(A) and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man^[a](B) with a crown^(C) of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. ¹⁵ Then another angel came out of the temple^(D) and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle^(E) and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest^(F) of the earth is ripe.” ¹⁶ So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.

¹⁷ Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.^{(G) 18} Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar^(H) and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, “Take your sharp sickle^(I) and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because its grapes are ripe.” ¹⁹ The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath.^{(J) 20} They were trampled in the winepress^(K) outside the city,^(L) and blood^(M) flowed out of the press, rising as high as the horses’ bridles for a distance of 1,600 stadia.^[b]

Seven Angels With Seven Plagues

15 I saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign:^(N) seven angels^(O) with the seven last plagues^(P)—last, because with them God’s wrath is completed. ² And I saw what looked like a sea of glass^(Q) glowing with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious^(R) over the beast^(S) and its image^(T) and over the number of its name.^(U) They held harps^(V) given them by God ³ and sang the song of God’s servant^(W) Moses^(X) and of the Lamb:^(Y)
