 NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 1 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple, saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God." | 1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. | 1 I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, "Pour the seven bowls of God's anger over the earth." | 1 I heard a loud voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth!" | 1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, Go and pour out the seven bowls of the fury of God upon the earth. | 2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth; and it became a loathsome and malignant sore on the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image. | 2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. | 2 The first angel poured his bowl over the earth. Horrible, painful sores appeared on the people who had the brand of the beast and worshiped its statue. | 2 The first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth, and it became a harmful and evil sore on the people who had the mark of the beast, and who worshiped his image. | 2 And the first went and poured out his bowl on the earth; and there came an evil and grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and those who worshipped its image. | 3 The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man; and every living thing in the sea died. | 3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. | 3 The second angel poured his bowl over the sea. The sea turned into blood like the blood of a dead man, and every living thing in the sea died. | 3 The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood as of a dead man. Every living thing in the sea died. | 3 And the second poured out his bowl on the sea; and it became blood, as of a dead man; and every living soul died in the sea. | 4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of waters; and they became blood. | 4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. | 4 The third angel poured his bowl over the rivers and the springs. They turned into blood. | 4 The third poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. | 4 And the third poured out his bowl on the rivers, and on the fountains of waters; and they became blood. | 5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying, "Righteous are You, who are and who were, O Holy One, because You judged these things; | 5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. | 5 Then I heard the angel of the water say, "You are fair. You are the one who is and the one who was, the holy one, because you have judged these things. | 5 I heard the angel of the waters saying, "You are righteous, who are and who were, you Holy One, because you have judged these things. | 5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying, Thou art righteous, who art and wast, the holy one, that thou hast judged so; | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
