1 E, havendo aberto o sétimo selo, fez-se silêncio no céu quase por meia hora.

2 E vi os sete anjos, que estavam diante de Deus, e foram-lhes dadas sete trombetas.

3 E veio outro anjo, e pôs-se junto ao altar, tendo um incensário de ouro; e foi-lhe dado muito incenso, para o pôr com as orações de todos os santos sobre o altar de ouro, que está diante do trono.

4 E a fumaça do incenso subiu com as orações dos santos desde a mão do anjo até diante de Deus.

5 E o anjo tomou o incensário, e o encheu do fogo do altar, e o lançou sobre a terra; e houve depois vozes, e trovões, e relâmpagos e terremotos.

6 E os sete anjos, que tinham as sete trombetas, prepararam-se para tocá-las.

7 E o primeiro anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e houve saraiva e fogo misturado com sangue, e foram lançados na terra, que foi queimada na sua terça parte; queimou-se a terça parte das árvores, e toda a erva verde foi queimada.

8 E o segundo anjo tocou a trombeta; e foi lançada no mar uma coisa como um grande monte ardendo em fogo, e tornou-se em sangue a terça parte do mar.

9 E morreu a terça parte das criaturas que tinham vida no mar; e perdeu-se a terça parte das naus.

10 E o terceiro anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e caiu do céu uma grande estrela ardendo como uma tocha, e caiu sobre a terça parte dos rios, e sobre as fontes das águas.

11 E o nome da estrela era Absinto, e a terça parte das águas tornou-se em absinto, e muitos homens morreram das águas, porque se tornaram amargas.

12 E o quarto anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e foi ferida a terça parte do sol, e a terça parte da lua, e a terça parte das estrelas; para que a terça parte deles se escurecesse, e a terça parte do dia não brilhasse, e semelhantemente a noite.

13 E olhei, e ouvi um anjo voar pelo meio do céu, dizendo com grande voz: Ai! ai! ai! dos que habitam sobre a terra! por causa das outras vozes das trombetas dos três anjos que hão de ainda tocar.

1 And when it opened the seventh seal, there was silence in the heaven about half an hour.

2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, that he might give {efficacy} to the prayers of all saints at the golden altar which {was} before the throne.

4 And the smoke of the incense went up with the prayers of the saints, out of the hand of the angel before God.

5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it from the fire of the altar, and cast {it} on the earth: and there were voices, and thunders and lightnings, and an earthquake.

6 And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves that they might sound with {their} trumpets.

7 And the first sounded {his} trumpet: and there was hail and fire, mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth; and the third part of the earth was burnt up, and the third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

8 And the second angel sounded {his} trumpet: and as a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea, and the third part of the sea became blood;

9 and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea which had life died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

10 And the third angel sounded {his} trumpet: and there fell out of the heaven a great star, burning as a torch, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters.

11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and the third part of the waters became wormwood, and many of the men died of the waters because they were made bitter.

12 And the fourth angel sounded {his} trumpet: and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so that the third part of them should be darkened, and that the day should not appear {for} the third part of it, and the night the same.

13 And I saw, and I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to them that dwell upon the earth, for the remaining voices of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound.
