Revelation 16
1
8 And the fourth poured out his vial upon the sun, and it was given to him to scorch men with fire;9 and men were scorched with great heat; and men blasphemed the name of Aloha who hath power over these plagues; and they repented not to give him glory.10 And the fifth poured his vial upon the throne of the beast of prey; and his kingdom became darkness, and they gnawed their tongues from pain;11 and they blasphemed the God of heaven from their pains, and from their ulcers, and repented not of their works.
12 And the sixth poured his vial upon the great river Phrat, and his waters were dried, that might be prepared the way of the kings who (are) from the rising of the sun.13 And I saw from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast of prey, and from the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs.14 For they are spirits of demons, working signs; they go to the kings of the whole inhabited world, to gather them to the battle of the great day of Aloha the Omnipotent.15 And BEHOLD, I COME, as the thief. Blessed is he who watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest naked he walk, and they see his shame.16 And they gathered them to a place which is called in Hebrew Armagedon.
17 And the seventh poured his vial upon the air; and a great voice went forth from the temple, from the throne, saying, IT IS DONE.18 And there were lightnings and thunders and voices, and a great movement, such as was not since men were upon earth, as this movement so great.19 And the great city became three parts, and the city of the nations fell; and Babel the great was remembered before Aloha, to give to her the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath.20 And every island fled, and the mountains were not found.21 And great hail, as of a talent (in weight), was from heaven upon men; and men blasphemed Aloha from the plague of hail, because the plague thereof was exceeding great.
