The Angels With the Last Plagues

15 <1> Then I saw another wonder in heaven. It was great and amazing. There were seven angels bringing seven plagues. (These are the last plagues, because after these, God's anger is finished.)

<2> I saw what looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire. All those who had won the victory over the beast and his idol[133] and over the number of its name were standing by the sea. These people had harps that God had given them. <3> They sang the song of Moses,[134] the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb[135]:

"Great and wonderful are the things you do,

Lord God All-Powerful.

Right and true are your ways,

Ruler of the nations.

<4> All people will fear you, O Lord.

All people will praise your name.

Only you are holy.

All people will come and worship before you,

because it is clear that you do what is right."

<5> After this I saw the temple, the holy place of God's presence,[136] in heaven. It was opened, <6> and the seven angels bringing the seven plagues came out. They were dressed in clean, shining linen cloth. They wore golden bands tied around their chests. <7> Then one of the four living beings gave seven golden bowls to the seven angels. The bowls were filled with the anger of God, who lives forever and ever. <8> The temple was filled with smoke from the glory[137] and the power of God. No one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished.
