Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Revelation 7
¹⁴ I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
¹⁵ For this reason, they are before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them.
¹⁶ They will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor will the sun beat down on them, nor any heat;
¹⁷ for the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and will guide them to springs of the water of life; and God will wipe every tear from their eyes."
Revelation 8
¹ When the Lamb broke the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
² And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
³ Another angel came and stood at the altar, holding a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, so that he might add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.
⁴ And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand.
⁵ Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.
⁶ And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound them.
⁷ The first sounded, and there came hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to 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.
