Literal Standard Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Chapter 15 -

(Deuteronomy 32:1–47)
1
And I saw another sign in the sky, great and wonderful: seven messengers having the seven last plagues, because in these the wrath of God was completed,
2
and I saw as a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who gain the victory over the beast, and his image, and his mark, [and] the number of his name, standing by the sea of the glass, having harps of God,
3
and they sing the song of Moses, servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, “Great and wonderful [are] Your works, O LORD God, the Almighty, righteous and true [are] Your ways, O King of holy ones!
4
Who may not fear You, O LORD, and glorify Your Name? Because You alone [are] holy, because all the nations will come and worship before You, because Your righteous acts were revealed.”

Preparation for Judgment

5
And after these things I saw, and behold, the temple of the Dwelling Place of the Testimony was opened in Heaven;
6
and the seven messengers having the seven plagues came forth out of the temple, clothed in linen, pure and radiant, and girded around the breasts with golden girdles:
7
and one of the four living creatures gave to the seven messengers seven golden bowls, full of the wrath of God, who is living through the ages of the ages;
8
and the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from His power, and no one was able to enter into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven messengers may be completed.
(Deuteronomy 32:1–47)
1
I saw another great and marvelous sign in the sky: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them Gods wrath is finished.
2
I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who overcame the beast, his image,(a) and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.
3
They sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,Great and marvelous are your works, Lord God, the Almighty! Righteous and true are your ways, you King of the nations.
4
Who wouldn’t fear you, Lord, and glorify your name? For you only are holy. For all the nations will come and worship before you. For your righteous acts have been revealed.”

Preparation for Judgment

5
After these things I looked, and the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.
6
The seven angels who had the seven plagues came out, clothed with pure, bright linen, and wearing golden sashes around their chests.
7
One of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever.
8
The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power. No one was able to enter into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels would be finished.
