 NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 1 When the Lamb broke the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. | 1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. | 1 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. | 1 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. | 1 And when it opened the seventh seal, there was silence in the heaven about half an hour. | 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. | 2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. | 2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand in God's presence, and they were given seven trumpets. | 2 I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. | 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. | 3 Another angel came and stood at the altar, holding a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, so that he might add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. | 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. | 3 Another angel came with a gold incense burner and stood at the altar. He was given a lot of incense to offer on the gold altar in front of the throne. He offered it with the prayers of all of God's people. | 3 Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. | 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, that he might give efficacy to the prayers of all saints at the golden altar which was before the throne. | 4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand. | 4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. | 4 The smoke from the incense went up from the angel's hand to God along with the prayers of God's people. | 4 The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand. | 4 And the smoke of the incense went up with the prayers of the saints, out of the hand of the angel before God. | 5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake. | 5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. | 5 The angel took the incense burner, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it on the earth. Then there was thunder, noise, lightning, and an earthquake. | 5 The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it on the earth. There followed thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake. | 5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it from the fire of the altar, and cast it on the earth: and there were voices, and thunders and lightnings, and an earthquake. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |

One-third of the earth was burned up, one-third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up. | 7 The first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth.

One-third of the sea turned into blood, | 8 The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood, | 8 And the second angel sounded his trumpet: and as a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea, and the third part of the sea became blood; | 9 and a third of the creatures which were in the sea and had life, died; and a third of the ships were destroyed. | 9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. | 9 one-third of the creatures that were living in the sea died, and one-third of the ships were destroyed. | 9 and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed. | 9 and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea which had life died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. | 10 The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of waters. | 10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; | 10 When the third angel blew his trumpet, a huge star flaming like a torch fell from the sky. It fell on one-third of the rivers and on the springs. | 10 The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of the waters. | 10 And the third angel sounded his trumpet: and there fell out of the heaven a great star, burning as a torch, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters. | NASB | KJV | GWT | WEB | DBY |
| 11 The name of the star is called Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter. | 11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. | 11 That star was named Wormwood. One-third of the water turned into wormwood, and many people died from this water because it had turned bitter. | 11 The name of the star is called "Wormwood." One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter. | 11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and the third part of the waters became wormwood, and many of the men died of the waters because they were made bitter. | 12 The fourth angel sounded, and a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were struck, so that a third of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a third of it, and the night in the same way. | 12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. | 12 When the fourth angel blew his trumpet, one-third of the sun, one-third of the moon, and one-third of the stars were struck so that one-third of them turned dark. There was no light for one-third of the day and one-third of the night. | 12 The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars; so that one third of them would be darkened, and the day wouldn't shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way. | 12 And the fourth angel sounded his trumpet: and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so that the third part of them should be darkened, and that the day should not appear for the third part of it, and the night the same. | 13 Then I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in midheaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!" | 13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! | 13 I saw an eagle flying overhead, and I heard it say in a loud voice, "Catastrophe, catastrophe, catastrophe for those living on earth, because of the remaining trumpet blasts which the three angels are about to blow." | 13 I saw, and I heard an eagle, flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe! Woe! Woe for those who dwell on the earth, because of the other voices of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound!" | 13 And I saw, and I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to them that dwell upon the earth, for the remaining voices of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound. |
