启示录 16

神忿怒的七碗

1 我听见有大声音从圣所里发出来，向那七位天使说：“你们去，把 神烈怒的七碗倒在地上！”2 第一位天使去了，把碗倒在地上，就有恶性的毒疮，生在那些有兽的记号和拜兽像的人身上。3 第二位天使把碗倒在海里，海水就变成好像死人的血，海里的一切生物都死了。4 第三位天使把碗倒在江河和众水的泉源里，水就变成了血。5 我听见掌管众水的天使说：
“今在昔在的圣者啊！
你这样审判是公义的，6 因为他们曾流圣徒和先知的血，
现在你给他们血喝，
这是他们该受的。”7 我又听见祭坛中有声音说：
“是的，主啊！全能的 神，
你的审判真实、公义！”8 第四位天使把碗倒在太阳上，太阳就得了能力，可以用火烤人。9 人被高热烧烤，就亵渎那有权柄掌管这些灾难的 神的名，并不悔改，把荣耀归给他。10 第五位天使把碗倒在兽的座位上，兽的国就黑暗了。人因为痛苦就咬自己的舌头。11 他们又因为所受的痛苦和所生的疮，亵渎天上的 神，并不为自己所作的悔改。12 第六位天使把碗倒在幼发拉底大河上，河水就干了，为了要给那些从东方来的王预备道路。13 我看见三个污灵，好像青蛙从龙口、兽口和假先知的口中出来。14 他们原是鬼魔的灵，施行奇事；牠们到普天下的众王那里去，叫他们在全能 神的大日聚集作战。15-16 污灵就把众王聚集在一个地方，希伯来话叫哈米吉多顿。17 第七位天使把碗倒在空中，就有大声音从圣所的宝座上发出来，说：“成了！”18 于是有闪电、响声、雷轰和大地震，自从地上有人以来，没发生过这么大的地震，19 那大城裂为三段，列国的城也都倒塌了。 神也想起巴比伦大城来，要把自己烈怒的酒杯递给它。20 各海岛都逃避了，众山也不见了。21 有大冰雹从天上落在人的身上，每块重约四十公斤。由于这冰雹的灾，人就亵渎 神，因为这灾太严重了。

Revelation 16

The Bowls of God’s Wrath

1 Thent I heard a loud voice from the temple declaring to the seven angels: “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls containing God’s wrath.”t

2 Sot the first angelt went and poured out his bowl on the earth. Thent ugly and painful sorest appeared on the peoplet who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.

3 Next,t the second angelt poured out his bowl on the sea and it turned into blood, like that of a corpse, and every living creature that was in the sea died.
4 Thent the third angelt poured out his bowl on the rivers and the springs of water, and they turned into blood.

5 Nowt I heard the angel of the waters saying:
“You are justt – the one who is and who was,
the Holy One – because you have passed these judgments,t

6 because they poured out the blood of your saints and prophets,
sot you have given them blood to drink. They got what they deserved!”t

7 Thent I heard the altar reply,t “Yes, Lord God, the All-Powerful,t your judgments are true and just!”
8 Thent the fourth angelt poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was permitted to scorch peoplet with fire.

9 Thust peoplet were scorched by the terrible heat,t yett they blasphemed the name of God, who has ruling authorityt over these plagues, and they would not repent and give him glory.
10 Thent the fifth angelt poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast so thatt darkness covered his kingdom,t and peoplet began to bitet their tongues becauset of their pain.

11 They blasphemed the God of heaven because of their sufferingst and because of their sores,t but neverthelesst they still refused to repentt of their deeds.
12 Thent the sixth angelt poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates and dried up its watert to prepare the wayt for the kings from the east.t13 Thent I saw three unclean spiritss that looked like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

14 For they are the spirits of the demons performing signs who go out to the kings of the eartht to bring them together for the battle that will take place on the great day of God, the All-Powerful.t

15 (Look! I will come like a thief!
Blessed is the one who stays alert and does not loset his clothes so that he will not have to walk around naked and his shameful conditiont be seen.)s

16 Nowt the spiritst gathered the kings and their armiest to the place that is called Armageddonst in Hebrew.
17 Finallyt the seventh angelt poured out his bowl into the air and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying: “It is done!”18 Thent there were flashes of lightning, roaring,t and crashes of thunder, and there was a tremendous earthquake – an earthquake unequaled since humanityt has been on the earth, so tremendous was that earthquake.19 Thet great city was split into three parts and the cities of the nationst collapsed.t Sot Babylon the great was remembered before God, and was given the cupt filled with the wine made of God’s furious wrath.t20 Everyt island fled awayt and no mountains could be found.s

21 And gigantic hailstones, weighing about a hundred poundst each, fell from heavent on people,t but theyt blasphemed God because of the plague of hail, since itt was so horrendous.t
