Revelation 15

1Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing: seven angels with the seven last plagues. With these the anger of God is finished.

2I saw what looked like a vast sea of crystal glass. Blazing streaks of fiery light mixed through the glass! Standing upon the glass were the champions who conquered the beast. They defeated the beast, its statue, and its code number! God placed golden harps into their hands.

3They sang the victory song of Moses, God's servant. They sang the triumphant song of the Lamb: Great and breathtaking are Your mighty works, Lord God Almighty! Righteous and true are all Your ways, King of the nations!

4Who will not revere You, Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy! All nations will come and bow down in worship before You. For Your righteous judgments stand fully revealed!

5After this, I looked, and heaven's temple opened wide! The inner sanctuary of the Tent of the Agreement stood open.

6The seven angels holding the seven plagues marched out. They wore pure, brilliant white linen robes. Wide golden sashes wrapped around their chests.

7One of the four living creatures approached the seven angels. He handed them seven golden bowls full of God's burning wrath! This wrath belongs to God, who lives forever and ever.

8Billowing smoke filled the entire temple! The smoke came from God's glorious presence and awesome power. No one could enter the temple sanctuary. The doors stayed closed until the angels finished all seven plagues!
