Bible. Revelation
15:2. And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them
that had overcome the beast and his image and the number of his name,
standing on the sea of glass, having the harps of God:
15:3. And singing the canticle of Moses, the servant of God, and the
canticle of the Lamb, saying: Great and wonderful are thy works, O Lord
God Almighty. Just and true are thy ways, O King of ages.
15:4. Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and magnify thy name? For thou
only art holy. For all nations shall come and shall adore in thy sight,
because thy judgments are manifest.
15:5. And after these things, I looked: and behold, the temple of the
tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.
15:6. And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven
plagues, clothed with clean and white linen and girt about the breasts
with golden girdles.
15:7. And one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels
seven golden vials, full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and
ever.

from his power. And no man was able to enter into the temple, till the
seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

angels: Go and pour out the seven vials of the wrath of God upon the
earth.

there fell a sore and grievous wound upon men who had the character of
the beast: and upon them that adored the image thereof.

things.

given them blood to drink. For they are worthy.

to give him glory.
