7:15. Therefore, they are before the throne of God: and they serve him
day and night in his temple. And he that sitteth on the throne shall
dwell over them.
7:16. They shall no more hunger nor thirst: neither shall the sun fall
on them, nor any heat.
7:17. For the Lamb, which is in the midst of the throne, shall rule them
and shall lead them to the fountains of the waters of life: and God
shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Apocalypse Chapter 8
The seventh seal is opened. The angels with the seven trumpets.
8:1. And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in
heaven, as it were for half an hour.
8:2. And I saw seven angels standing in the presence of God: and there
were given to them seven trumpets.
8:3. And another angel came and stood before the altar, having a golden
censer: and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer of
the prayers of all saints, upon the golden altar which is before the
throne of God.
8:4. And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints ascended
up before God from the hand of the angel.
8:5. And the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the
altar and cast it on the earth: and there were thunders and voices and
lightnings and a great earthquake.
8:6. And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves
to sound the trumpet.
8:7. And the first angel sounded the trumpet: and there followed hail
and fire, mingled with blood: and it was cast on the earth. And the
third part of the earth was burnt up: and the third part of the trees
was burnt up: and all green grass was burnt up.
8:8. And the second angel sounded the trumpet: and, as it were, a great
mountain, burning with fire, was cast into the sea. And the third part
of the sea became blood.
8:9. And the third part of those creatures died which had life in the
sea: and the third part of the ships was destroyed.
8:10. And the third angel sounded the trumpet: and a great star fell
from heaven, burning as it were a torch. And it fell on the third part
of the rivers and upon the fountains of waters:
8:11. And the name of the star is called Wormwood. And the third part of
the waters became wormwood. And many men died of the waters, because
they were made bitter.
8:12. And the fourth angel sounded the trumpet: and the third part of
the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part
of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened. And the day
did not shine for a third part of it: and the night in like manner.
8:13. And I beheld: and heard the voice of one eagle flying through the
midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice: Woe, Woe, Woe to the
inhabitants of the earth, by reason of the rest of the voices of the
three angels, who are yet to sound the trumpet!
Apocalypse Chapter 9
Locusts come forth from the bottomless pit. The vision of the army of
horsemen.
9:1. And the fifth angel sounded the trumpet: and I saw a star fall from
heaven upon the earth. And there was given to him the key of the
bottomless pit.
A star full... This may mean the fall and apostasy of great and learned
men from the true faith. Or a whole nation falling into error and
separating from the church, not having the sign of God in their
foreheads. And there was given to him the key of the bottomless pit...
That is, to the angel, not to the fallen star. To this angel was given
the power, which is here signified by a key, of opening hell.
