Opinberun Jóhannesar 8
Icelandic Bible
8 Þegar lambið lauk upp sjöunda innsiglinu, varð þögn á himni hér um bil hálfa stund.
2 Og ég sá englana sjö, sem stóðu frammi fyrir Guði, og þeim voru fengnar sjö básúnur.
3 Og annar engill kom og nam staðar við altarið. Hann hélt á reykelsiskeri úr gulli. Honum var fengið mikið reykelsi til þess að hann skyldi leggja það við bænir allra hinna heilögu á gullaltarið frammi fyrir hásætinu.
4 Og reykurinn af reykelsinu steig upp með bænum hinna heilögu úr hendi engilsins frammi fyrir Guði.
5 Þá tók engillinn reykelsiskerið og fyllti það eldi af altarinu og varpaði ofan á jörðina. Og þrumur komu og dunur og eldingar og landskjálfti.
6 Og englarnir sjö, sem héldu á básúnunum sjö, bjuggu sig til að blása.
7 Hinn fyrsti básúnaði. Þá kom hagl og eldur, blóði blandað, og því var varpað ofan á jörðina. Og þriðjungur jarðarinnar eyddist í loga, og þriðjungur trjánna eyddist í loga, og allt grængresi eyddist í loga.
8 Annar engillinn básúnaði. Þá var sem miklu fjalli, logandi af eldi, væri varpað í hafið. Þriðjungur hafsins varð blóð,
9 og þriðjungurinn dó af lífverum þeim, sem eru í hafinu, og þriðjungur skipanna fórst.
10 Þriðji engillinn básúnaði. Þá féll stór stjarna af himni, logandi sem blys, og hún féll ofan á þriðjung fljótanna og á lindir vatnanna.
11 Nafn stjörnunnar er Remma. Þriðjungur vatnanna varð að remmu og margir menn biðu bana af vötnunum, af því að þau voru beisk orðin.
12 Fjórði engillinn básúnaði. Þá varð þriðjungur sólarinnar lostinn og þriðjungur tunglsins og þriðjungur stjarnanna, svo að þriðjungur þeirra yrði myrkur. Og dagurinn missti þriðjung birtu sinnar og nóttin hið sama.
13 Þá sá ég og heyrði örn einn fljúga um háhvolf himins. Hann kallaði hárri röddu: "Vei, vei, vei þeim, sem á jörðu búa, vegna lúðurhljóma englanna þriggja, sem eiga eftir að básúna."

Revelation 8
New International Version
The Seventh Seal and the Golden Censer
8 When he opened the seventh seal,(A) there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 And I saw the seven angels(B) who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.(C)
3 Another angel,(D) who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people,(E) on the golden altar(F) in front of the throne. 4 The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God(G) from the angel’s hand. 5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar,(H) and hurled it on the earth; and there came peals of thunder,(I) rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake.(J)
The Trumpets
6 Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets(K) prepared to sound them.
7 The first angel(L) sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire(M) mixed with blood, and it was hurled down on the earth. A third(N) of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.(O)
8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain,(P) all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third(Q) of the sea turned into blood,(R) 9 a third(S) of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky(T) on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water(U)— 11 the name of the star is Wormwood.[a] A third(V) of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.(W)
12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third(X) of them turned dark.(Y) A third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night.(Z)
13 As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying in midair(AA) call out in a loud voice: “Woe! Woe! Woe(AB) to the inhabitants of the earth,(AC) because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the other three angels!”
