15Revelation

1 Then I saw another great and astonishing portent in heaven: seven angels with seven plagues, the last plagues of all, for with them the wrath of God is consummated.
The Angels with the Last Plagues Re.15.1-8
2 I saw what seemed a sea of glass shot with fire, and beside the sea of glass, holding the harps which God had given them, were those who had won the victory over the beast and its image and the number of its name.
 
3 They were singing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, as they chanted:
    'Great and marvellous are thy deeds, O Lord God, sovereign over all; just and true are thy ways, thou king of the ages. Some witnesses read: king of the nations.

 
4 Who shall not revere thee, Lord, and do homage to thy name? For thou alone art holy. All nations shall come and worship in thy presence, for thy just dealings stand revealed.'

 
5 After this, as I looked, the sanctuary of the heavenly Tent of Testimony was thrown open,  
6 and out of it came the seven angels with the seven plagues. They were robed in fine linen, clean and shining, and had golden girdles round their breasts.  
7 Then one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives for ever and ever;  
8 and the sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and his power, so that no one could enter it until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
