Opening the chapter…

And when he opened the seventh seal, silence happened in heaven for about half an hour.
And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them. \*
And another angel came and was stationed at the altar having a golden censer, and much incense was given to him so that he would offer {it} with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar before the throne.
And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the hand of the angel.
And the angel took the censer and filled it from the fire of the altar and threw {it} onto the earth, and thunders and sounds and lightnings and an earthquake happened. \*
And the seven angels having the seven trumpets prepared themselves that they might trumpet.
And the first trumpeted, and hail happened, and fire, mixed with blood, and it was thrown onto the earth, and a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up. \*
And the second angel trumpeted, and {something} like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood,
and a third of the creatures having life in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. \*
And the third angel trumpeted, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of waters.
And the name of the star is called Wormwood. And a third of the waters became wormwood, and many of the men died from the waters that had been made bitter. \*
And the fourth angel trumpeted, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon and a third of the stars, so that a third of them were darkened, and the day, a third of it did not shine, and likewise the night. \*
And I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven saying in a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe, to the ones living on the earth from the remaining sounds of the trumpet of the three angels who are going to trumpet.” \*
