Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Revelation
Weymouth, Richard Francis
Bible. Revelation
014:010 he shall drink the wine of God's anger which stands ready,
undiluted, in the cup of His fury, and he shall be tormented
with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels
and of the Lamb.
014:011 And the smoke of their torment goes up until the Ages of the Ages;
and the worshipers of the Wild Beast and his statue have no
rest day or night, nor has any one who receives the mark
of his name.
014:012 Here is an opportunity for endurance on the part of God's people,
who carefully keep His commandments and the faith of Jesus!"
014:013 And I heard a voice speaking from Heaven. It said,
"Write as follows: "'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord
from this time onward. Yes, says the Spirit, let them
rest from their sorrowful labours; for what they have done
goes with them.'"
014:014 Then I looked, and a white cloud appeared, and sitting on
the cloud was some One resembling the Son of Man, having a
wreath of gold upon His head and in His hand a sharp sickle.
014:015 And another, an angel, came out of the sanctuary, calling in a loud
voice to Him who sat on the cloud, and saying, "Use your sickle
and reap the harvest, for the hour for reaping it has come:
the harvest of the earth is over-ripe."
014:016 Then He who sat on the cloud flung His sickle on the earth,
and the earth had its harvest reaped.
014:017 And another angel came out from the sanctuary in Heaven,
and he too carried a sharp sickle.
014:018 And another angel came out from the altar--he who had power
over fire--and he spoke in a loud voice to him who had
the sharp sickle, saying, "Use your sharp sickle, and gather
the bunches from the vine of the earth, for its grapes are
now quite ripe."
014:019 And the angel flung his sickle down to the earth, and reaped
the vine of the earth and threw the grapes into the great
winepress of God's anger.
014:020 And the winepress was trodden outside the city, and out of it
came blood reaching the horses' bridles for a distance
of 200 miles.
015:001 Then I saw another marvel in Heaven, great and wonderful--
there were seven angels bringing seven plagues.
These are the last plagues, because in them God's anger has
found full expression.
015:002 And I saw what seemed to be a sea of glass mingled with fire,
and those who had gained the victory over the Wild Beast
and over his statue and the number of his name, standing by
the sea of glass and having harps which belonged to God.
015:003 And they were singing the song of Moses, God's servant,
and the song of the Lamb. Their words were, "Great and
wonderful are Thy works, O Lord God, the Ruler of all.
Righteous and true are Thy ways, O King of the nations.
