 8:1  And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was
silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
 8:2  And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to
them were given seven trumpets.
 8:3  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.
 8:4  And the smoke of the incense, [which came] with the
prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the
angel's hand.
 8:5  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.
 8:6  And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets
prepared themselves to sound.
 8:7  The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire
mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the
third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt
up.
 8:8  And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great
mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third
part of the sea became blood;
 8:9  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.
 8:10  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;
 8:11  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.
 8:12  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.
 8:13  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!
