Revelation 8

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

1 وَلَمَّا فَكَّ الْحَمَلُ الْخَتْمَ السَّابِعَ سَادَ السَّمَاءَ سُكُوتٌ نَحْوَ نِصْفِ سَاعَةٍ،

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

2 وَرَأَيْتُ الْمَلائِكَةَ السَّبْعَةَ الْوَاقِفِينَ أَمَامَ اللهِ، وَقَدْ أُعْطُوا سَبْعَةَ أَبْوَاقٍ.

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 ثُمَّ جَاءَ مَلاكٌ آخَرُ وَمَعَهُ مِبْخَرَةٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَوَقَفَ عِنْدَ الْمَذْبَحِ، وَأُعْطِيَ بَخُوراً كَثِيراً لِيُقَدِّمَهُ مَعَ صَلَوَاتِ الْقِدِّيسِينَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ الذَّهَبِ أَمَامَ الْعَرْشِ،

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 فَارْتَفَعَ دُخَانُ الْبَخُورِ مِنْ يَدِ الْمَلاكِ مَصْحُوباً بِصَلَوَاتِ الْقِدِّيسِينَ إِلَى حَضْرَةِ اللهِ.

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 ثُمَّ مَلأَ الْمَلاكُ الْمِبْخَرَةَ مِنَ النَّارِ الَّتِي عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ وَأَلْقَاهَا إِلَى الأَرْضِ، فَحَدَثَتْ رُعُودٌ وَأَصْوَاتٌ وَبُرُوقٌ وَزَلْزَلَةٌ.

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

6 وَاسْتَعَدَّ الْمَلائِكَةُ السَّبْعَةُ، أَصْحَابُ الأَبْوَاقِ السَّبْعَةِ، لِيَنْفُخُوا فِيهَا.

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 وَلَمَّا نَفَخَ الْمَلاكُ الأَوَّلُ فِي بُوقِهِ، إِذَا بَرَدٌ وَنَارٌ يُخَالِطُهُمَا الدَّمُ يَسْقُطَانِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ، فَاحْتَرَقَ ثُلْثُ الأَرْضِ وَثُلْثُ الأَشْجَارِ مَعَ كُلِّ عُشْبٍ أَخْضَرَ.

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 وَلَمَّا نَفَخَ الْمَلاكُ الثَّانِي فِي بُوقِهِ، أُلْقِيَ فِي الْبَحْرِ مَا يُشْبِهُ جَبَلاً عَظِيماً مُشْتَعِلاً، فَصَارَ ثُلْثُ الْبَحْرِ دَماً،

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

9 فَمَاتَ ثُلْثُ الْمَخْلُوقَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ الَّتِي فِيهِ، وَتَحَطَّمَ ثُلْثُ السُّفُنِ.

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 ثُمَّ نَفَخَ الْمَلاكُ الثَّالِثُ فِي بُوقِهِ، فَهَوَى مِنَ السَّمَاءِ نَجْمٌ عَظِيمٌ كَأَنَّهُ شُعْلَةٌ مِنْ نَارٍ، وَسَقَطَ عَلَى ثُلْثِ الأَنْهَارِ وَيَنَابِيعِ الْمِيَاهِ.

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 وَاسْمُ هَذَا النَّجْمِ «الْعَلْقَمُ». فَصَارَ ثُلْثُ الْمِيَاهِ مُرّاً كَالْعَلْقَمِ، وَمَاتَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ النَّاسِ بِسَبَبِ مَرَارَةِ الْمِيَاهِ.

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 وَلَمَّا نَفَخَ الْمَلاكُ الرَّابِعُ فِي بُوقِهِ، حَدَثَتْ ضَرْبَةٌ لِثُلْثِ الشَّمْسِ وَثُلْثِ الْقَمَرِ وَثُلْثِ النُّجُومِ، فَأَظْلَمَ ثُلْثُهَا وَفَقَدَ النَّهَارُ ثُلْثَ ضِيَائِهِ، وَكَذَلِكَ اللَّيْلُ.

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 ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ فَرَأَيْتُ نَسْراً يَطِيرُ فِي وَسَطِ السَّمَاءِ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَصِيحُ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ: «الْوَيْلُ الْوَيْلُ الْوَيْلُ لِسُكَّانِ الأَرْضِ مِمَّا سَيَحْدُثُ لَهُمْ عِنْدَمَا يَنْفُخُ الْمَلائِكَةُ الثَّلاثَةُ الْبَاقُونَ فِي أَبْوَاقِهِمْ!»
