The first blew, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, falling on the earth; a third of the earth was burnt up, a third of the trees were burnt up, and all the green grass was burnt up. The second angel blew, and what looked like a huge mountain on fire was hurled into the sea; a third of the sea turned blood, a third of the creatures in the sea ??the living creatures ??perished, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

For nation will rise against nation, and realm against realm; there will be famines and earthquakes here and there.

there will be great earthquakes with famine and pestilence here and there, there will be awful portents and great signs from heaven.
