          DASV: Revelation 8    

1 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in
heaven for about a half an hour.
2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven
trumpets were given to them.
3 Now another angel having a golden censer came and stood
at the altar, and a sizeable amount of incense was given to
him, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the
saints on the golden altar that is before the throne.
4 The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints,
went up before God from the angel's hand.
5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire
from the altar, and threw it down upon the earth. There
followed crashes of thunder, rumblings, lightning, and an
earthquake.
6 The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to
blow them.
7 The first angel blew his trumpet, and hail and fire came
mixed with blood, and they were thrown down upon the earth
resulting in a third of the earth being burnt up, and
the third part of the trees were burnt up, and all green
grass was burnt up.
8 The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a
great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea,
and a third of the sea became blood.
9 A third of the creatures living in the sea died, and a
third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell
from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third
of the rivers and on the springs of water.
11 The name of the star was called Wormwood. A third of
the waters became bitter [that is, wormwood]; and many men
died from the water because it had become bitter poison.
12 The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the
sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the
stars; so that a third of them was darkened, and a third
of the day did not have light, and the night was darkened
the same way.
13 Then I looked and I heard an eagle flying overhead, saying
with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe, for those who live on
the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet
from the three final angels who are yet to blow their trumpets."
