Chapter 16
TRANSLATION OF CHAPTER 16
1. And I heard a great voice from the Nave, saying to the Seven Angels, Go forth and pour out the vials of the wrath of the Deity into the earth.
2. And the first went forth, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there ensued a grievous and malignant ulcer upon the men who have the sign of the Beast, and who do homage to his Image.
3. And the second angel poured out his vial into the sea; and it became blood as of a corpse, and every living soul died in the sea.
4. And the third angel poured out his vial into the rivers, and into the fountains of the waters; and there was blood. 5. And I heard from the Angel of the waters saying, Righteous, Ο Lord, art thou, who art, and who wast and who art coming, because thou hast decreed these things; 6. For they have poured out the blood of saints and prophets, and to them thou hast given blood to drink; for they are worthy. 7. And I heard from another out of the Altar, saying, Yea, Ο Lord, the almighty Deity, true and righteous are thy judgments.
8. And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and it was given to him to scorch the men with fire. 9. And the men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the Name of the Deity who hath power over these plagues, and they repented not to give glory to him.
10. And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the throne of the Beast; and it was his kingdom which had been darkened; and they did gnaw their tongues from the anguish, and blasphemed the Deity of the heaven because of their pains, and because of their ulcers; and they repented not of their works.
12. And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river the Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up that the way of the kings who are from a sun's risings, might be prepared.
13. And I saw out of the Mouth of the Dragon,and out of the Mouth of the Beast and out of the Mouth of the False Prophet, three Unclean Spirits like to Frogs; (for they are Spirits of Daemons working wonders) go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole habitable, to gather them together for the war of that great day of the Deity who is almighty.
15. BEHOLD, I COME AS A THIEF. Blessed is he who is watching, and keeping his garments, that he may not walk naked, and they may see his shame. 16. And he gathered them together into the place which is called Hebraistically, Armageddon.
17. And the seventh angel poured out his vial upon the Air; and there came forth a great voice from the Nave of the Heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
18. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings, and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, such an earthquake so great.
19. And the Great City came into three parts; and the cities of the nations fell; and Babylon the Great was called to mind before the Deity, to give to her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.
20. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21. And a great hail as of a talent's weight descended out of the heaven upon the men; and the men blasphemed the Deity, because of the plague of the hail: for the plague thereof is exceedingly great.
