And the voice which I had heard from heaven, I heard again, speaking to me, and saying, "Go, take the little book that is open in the hand of the angel who stands upon the sea and upon the land."
And in front of the throne as it seemed, a glassy sea like crystal; and in the midst of the throne and encircling it are four Living Creatures, full of eyes before and behind.
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and the sea is no more.
In his hand he had a little book, open; and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the land.

And the third poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of waters; and they were turned into blood. And I heard the angel of the waters saying. "Righteous art thou, thou who art and wast, The Holy One, Because thou didst inflict this judgment. For men poured out the blood of thy saints and prophets, And thou hast given them blood to drink. And this they deserved." And I heard the altar saying, "Yea, O Lord, the Almighty, True and righteous are thy judgments." And the fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun, and the sun was permitted to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with the terrible heat; and they blasphemed the name of the God who had the power over these plagues; yet they repented not, to give him glory. And the fifth poured out his bowl upon the throne of the beast; and his kingdom became darkened, and men gnawed their tongues for pain, and they blasphemed the God of heaven, because of their pains and their sores; yet of their deeds they did not repent.

Lo, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the who is on the watch and guarding his clothing, so that he may not walk naked, and they gaze on his shame.

And the seventh poured out his bowl upon the air, and a great voice came forth out of the temple from the throne, saying, "It is finished!"
And the third poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of waters; and they were turned into blood. And I heard the angel of the waters saying.

And lightnings and voices and thunders and a great earthquake such as had not happened since man began to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty; and the great city was shattered into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and great Babylon came to mind before the face of God, to give her the cup of the wine of the passion of his anger. And every island fled away, and the mountains sank from sight. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent; and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, for the plague of it is very great.
