Chapter 8
Reve Common 8:1  When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
Reve Common 8:2  And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets.
Reve Common 8:3  Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. And he was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne.
Reve Common 8:4  And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God from the angel’s hand.
Reve Common 8:5  Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth; and there were peals of thunder, voices, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
Reve Common 8:6  The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
Reve Common 8:7  The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth; and a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
Reve Common 8:8  The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and a third of the sea became blood,
Reve Common 8:9  and a third of the living creatures in the sea died; and a third of the ships were destroyed.
Reve Common 8:10  The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water.
Reve Common 8:11  The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became Wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
Reve Common 8:12  The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them darkened. And a third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night.
Reve Common 8:13  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 blasts of the other trumpets of the three angels who are about to sound!"
