Revelation 16:4-7 - The Third Bowl

4 And [then] the third [angel] poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of water, and they turned into blood. 5 Then I heard the angel [in charge] of the waters saying, "You are just, [you] who are [in the present] and who were [in the past], O Holy One, because you have judged [that these things should happen]. 6 For they [i.e., the followers of the beast. See verse 2] have shed the blood of God's holy people and [their] prophets, and you have given them blood to drink because they deserved it [i.e., these persecutors deserved the punishment they received for shedding blood].

7 And I heard [a voice from] the Altar saying, "Yes, O Lord, God Almighty, your judgments are true and just."
