Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Revelation 7
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.
⁸ The second angel sounded, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and a third of the sea became blood,
⁹ and a third of the creatures which were in the sea and had life, died; and a third of the ships were destroyed.
