Revelation 8:11-13
English Standard Version
11 The name of the star is Wormwood.[a] A third of the waters (A)became wormwood, and many people died from the water, (B)because it had been made bitter.
12 The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of (C)the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.
13 Then I looked, and I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice as it flew directly overhead, (D)“Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, at the blasts of the other trumpets that the three angels are about to blow!”
