   into the cup of His anger. He shall be tormented with fire   
   and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels   
   and in the presence of the Lamb.   
   11 (Isa 34:10; Rev 19:3) The smoke of their torment will ascend forever   
   and ever. They have no rest day or night, who worship the beast   
   and his image and whoever receives the mark of his name."   
   12 (Rev 12:17; 13:10) Here is the patience of the saints; here are those   
   who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.   
   13 (1Co 15:18; 1Th 4:16) Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me,   
   "Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on."   
   "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors,   
   for their works follow them."   
      
   [6] And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the   
   everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every   
   nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,   
   [7] Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour   
   of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and   
   the sea, and the fountains of waters.   
   [8] And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen,   
   that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath   
   of her fornication.   
   [9] And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man   
   worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in   
   his hand,   
   [10] The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured   
   out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be   
   tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in   
   the presence of the Lamb:   
   [11] And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they   
   have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and   
   whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.   
   [12] Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the   
   commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.   
   [13] And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the   
   dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they   
   may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.   
      
   The Harvest of the Earth   
      
   14 (Rev 1:13; 6:2) I looked. And there was a white cloud, and on the cloud   
   sat One like a Son of Man, having on his head a golden crown, and in His hand   
   a sharp sickle.   
   15 (Jer 51:33; Joel 3:13) Then another angel came out of the temple,   
   crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud,   
   "Thrust in Your sickle and reap. The time has come for You to reap,   
   for the harvest of the earth is ripe."   
   16 So He who sat on the cloud thrust His sickle on the earth,   
   and the earth was harvested.   
   17 Another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven.   
   He also had a sharp sickle.   
   18 (Joel 3:13; Rev 16:8) Yet another angel who had authority over fire   
   came out from the altar. He cried with a loud voice to him who had   
   the sharp sickle, saying, "Thrust in your sharp sickle   
   and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes   
   are fully ripe."   
   19 The angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vintage   
   of the earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.   
   20 (La 1:15; Rev 11:8) The winepress was trampled outside the city,   
   and blood came out of the winepress, up to the horses' bridles,   
   for one hundred and eighty-six miles.   
   (Gk. 1,600 stadia or 300 kilometers.)   
      
   [14] And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like   
   unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a   
   sharp sickle.   
   [15] And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to   
   him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is   
   come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.   
   [16] And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the   
   earth was reaped.   
   [17] And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also   
   having a sharp sickle.   
   [18] And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire;   
   and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust   
   in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for   
   her grapes are fully ripe.   
   [19] And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the   
   vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.   
   [20] And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of   
   the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and   
   six hundred furlongs.   
      
   Revelation 15   
      
   The Angels With the Last Plagues   
      
   1 (Rev 21:9; 15:6-7) I saw another great and marvelous sign in heaven:   
   seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them the wrath of God   
   is complete.   
   2 (Rev 4:6; 5:8; 12:11) And I saw what looked like a sea of glass mixed   
   with fire, and those who have the victory over the beast, over his image   
   and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea   
   of glass, having harps of God.   
   3 (Ps 111:2; 139:14) They sang the song of Moses, the servant of God,   
   and the song of the Lamb, saying:   
   "Great and marvelous are Your works,   
   Lord God Almighty!   
   Just and true are Your ways,   
   O King of saints!   
   4 (Ps 86:9; Jer 10:7) Who shall not fear You, O Lord,   
   and glorify Your name?   
   For You alone are holy.   
   All nations shall come   
   and worship before You,   
   for Your judgments have been revealed."(Isa 25:8.)   
   5 (Nu 1:50; Rev 11:19) After this I looked. And now   
   the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.   
   6 (Rev 1:13; 15:1) The seven angels came out of the temple   
   with the seven plagues. They were clothed in pure, bright linen,   
   having their chests wrapped with golden sashes.   
   7 (Rev 5:8) Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels   
   seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever.   
   8 (Isa 6:4; 1Ki 8:10-11) And the temple was filled with smoke   
   from the glory of God and from His power. No one was able to enter   
   the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.   
      
   [1] And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels   
   having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.   
   [2] And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had   
   gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark,   
   and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps   
   of God.   
   [3] And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the   
   Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just   
   and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.   
   [4] Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art   
   holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments   
   are made manifest.   
   [5] And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of   
   the testimony in heaven was opened:   
   [6] And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues,   
   clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden   
   girdles.   
   [7] And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials   
   full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.   
   [8] And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his   
   power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues   
   of the seven angels were fulfilled.
