Revelation 16:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 [a]And the seventh Angel poured out his vial into the [b]air: and there came a loud voice out of the Temple of heaven from [c]the throne, saying, [d]It is done.
18 [e]And there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, even so mighty an earthquake.
19 [f]And the great city was divided into three parts: and the cities of the nations [g]fell: and that great [h]Babylon came in remembrance before God, (A)to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

New International Version
17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air,(A) and out of the temple(B) came a loud voice(C) from the throne, saying, “It is done!”(D) 18 Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder(E) and a severe earthquake.(F) No earthquake like it has ever occurred since mankind has been on earth,(G) so tremendous was the quake. 19 The great city(H) split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed.
