KJ3 Literal Translation
Revelation 8
1 At the opening of the seventh seal, 2 seven angels seven trumpets are given them. 6 Four of them sound their trumpets, and plagues follow.
1And when He opened the seventh seal, a silence occurred in Heaven, about a half hour.
2And I saw the seven angels who stood before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3And another angel came and stood on the altar, having a golden censer. And many incenses were given to him, that he give them with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne.
4And the smoke of the incenses went up with the prayers of the saints out of the hand of the angel before God.
5And the angel has taken the censer, and has filled it from the fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth; and voices and thunders and lightnings and earthquakes occurred.
6And the seven angels, the ones having the seven trumpets, prepared themselves, that they might sound the trumpets.
7And the first angel sounded his trumpet. And hail and fire mixed with blood occurred. And it was cast onto the earth; and the third part of the trees was burned down; and all green grass was burned down.
8And the second angel sounded his trumpet. And as, it were, a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. And the third part of the sea became blood;
9and the third part of the creatures, the ones having souls, died in the sea; and the third part of the ships was destroyed.
10And the third angel trumpeted. And a great burning star, like a lamp, fell out of the heaven. And it fell onto the third part of the rivers, and onto the springs of waters.
11And the name of the star is said to be Wormwood. And the third part of the waters became changed into wormwood. And many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12And the fourth angel sounded his trumpet. And the third part of the sun, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, was struck, that the third part of them might be darkened, and the third part of the day might not appear; and likewise the night.
13And I saw, and I heard one angel flying in mid-heaven, saying with a great voice, Woe! Woe! Woe to those dwelling on the earth, from the remaining voices of the trumpet of the three angels being about to trumpet!
