Revelation 8

1 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

1 羔羊揭开第七印的时候，天上寂静约有二刻。

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

2 我看见那站在 神面前的七位天使，有七枝号赐给他们。

3 Then another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, along with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne.

3 另有一位天使，拿着金香炉来，站在祭坛旁边。有许多香赐给他，要和众圣徒的祈祷一同献在宝座前的金坛上。

4 And the smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the hand of the angel.

4 那香的烟和众圣徒的祈祷从天使的手中一同升到 神面前。

5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it to the earth; and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

5 天使拿着香炉，盛满了坛上的火，倒在地上；随有雷轰、大声、闪电、地震。

6 And the seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.

6 拿着七枝号的七位天使就预备要吹。

7 Then the first angel sounded his trumpet, and hail and fire mixed with blood were hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, along with a third of the trees and all the green grass.

7 第一位天使吹号，就有雹子与火搀着血丢在地上；地的三分之一和树的三分之一被烧了，一切的青草也被烧了。

8 Then the second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned to blood,

8 第二位天使吹号，就有仿佛火烧着的大山扔在海中；海的三分之一变成血，

9 a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

9 海中的活物死了三分之一，船只也坏了三分之一。

10 Then the third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star burning like a torch fell from heaven and landed on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water.

10 第三位天使吹号，就有烧着的大星，好像火把从天上落下来，落在江河的三分之一和众水的泉源上。

11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter like wormwood oil, and many people died from the bitter waters.

11 （这星名叫「茵 」。）众水的三分之一变为茵 ，因水变苦，就死了许多人。

12 Then the fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun and moon and stars were struck. A third of the stars were darkened, a third of the day was without light, and a third of the night as well.

12 第四位天使吹号，日头的三分之一、月亮的三分之一、星辰的三分之一都被击打，以致日月星的三分之一黑暗了，白昼的三分之一没有光，黑夜也是这样。

13 And as I observed, I heard an eagle flying overhead, calling in a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the remaining three angels!”

13 我又看见一个鹰飞在空中，并听见它大声说：「三位天使要吹那其余的号。你们住在地上的民，祸哉！祸哉！祸哉！」
