Revelation 15
15
Preparation for the Bowl Judgments
1Then I saw another great and awe-inspiring sign # 15:1 Or and awesome symbolic display in heaven: # 15:1 Mt 16:1; 24:30; Lk 21:11; Ac 2:19; Rv 12:1,3; 13:13 seven angels with the seven last plagues; for with them God’s wrath will be completed. # 15:1 Jn 19:30; Rv 10:7; 16:17; 17:17 2I also saw something like a sea of glass # 15:2 Rv 4:6 mixed with fire, and those who had won the victory over the beast, its image, # 15:2 Other mss add his mark and the number of its name, were standing on the sea of glass with harps from God. # 15:2 Rv 5:8; 14:2 3They sang the song of God’s servant Moses # 15:3 Ex 15:1; Dt 31:22 and the song of the Lamb:
Great and awe-inspiring are your works,
Lord God, the Almighty;
just and true # 15:3 Rv 16:7; 19:2 are your ways,
King of the nations. # 15:3 Other mss read ages,# 15:3 Dn 2:37; Lk 22:25; 1Tm 6:15; Rv 17:14; 19:16
4Lord, who will not fear
and glorify your name?
For you alone are holy. # 15:4 Is 8:13
All the nations will come
and worship before you # 15:4 Ps 86:9; 113:4; Is 52:10; 61:11; Jr 3:17; 33:9
because your righteous acts
have been revealed.
5After this I looked, and the heavenly temple — the tabernacle of testimony # 15:5 Ex 38:21; Nm 17:7; 18:2 — was opened. # 15:5 Rv 11:19 6Out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues, dressed in pure, bright linen, with golden sashes wrapped around their chests. 7One of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls filled with the wrath of God who lives forever and ever. # 15:7 Ex 15:18; Ps 10:16; 45:6; 48:14; Gl 1:5; Eph 3:21; Php 4:20; 1Tm 1:17; 2Tm 4:18; Heb 1:8; 13:21; 1Pt 4:11; Rv 1:6,18; 4:9–10; 5:13; 7:12; 10:6; 11:15 8Then the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, # 15:8 Ex 19:18; 20:18; Is 4:5; 6:4 and no one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.

1And I saw another ot (miraculous sign) in Shomayim, great and marvelous: shiva (seven) malachim (angels) having sheva (seven) makkot (plagues), the last makkot (plagues), because by them is completed the Charon Af Hashem (the burning fury of G-d).#15:1 Lv 26:21
2And I saw, as it were, a yam (sea) of glass, having been mingled with eish (fire); and I saw the menatzakhat HaChayyah (overcomers of the Beast, Anti-Moshiach) and of its Atzav (image) and of the mispar (number) of its name; and I saw them having taken their stand on the yam (sea) of glass, holding nevalim (harps) of Hashem. 3And they sing the Shir of Moshe [Rabbeinu], the eved Hashem, and the Shir of the SEH (Lamb),#15:3 Ex 12:3; Isa 53:7 Moshiach saying, “Great and marvelous are your ma'asim (works), Hashem Adonoi Tzva'ot; Tzedek (Righteousness) and Emes (Truth) are your derakhim (ways, paths), Melech kol HaGoyim (King of all the Nations).#15:3 Ex 15:1; Josh 1:1; Ps 111:2; 145:17 4Adonoi, who would not fear You and ascribe kavod to your Name? Because You only are HaKadosh, for kol HaGoyim will come and will worship before You because Your tzedakot (righteous acts) were made known.”#15:4 Jer 10:7; Ps 86:9; Isa 66:23
5And after these things I looked, and the Heikhal was opened, that is, the Mishkan HaEdut in Shomayim.#15:5 Ex 38:21; Num 1:50 6And the shivat hamalachim (seven angels) having the sheva hamakkot (seven plagues) came out of the Heikhal, having been clothed in linen, tahor (clean) and bright, and having been wrapped around the chests with golden gartels.#15:6 Ezek 9:2; Dan 10:5 7And one of the Arbah Chayyot (four living beings) gave to the shivat hamalachim (seven angels) golden ke'arot (bowls) being full of the Charon Af HaElohim HaChai l'olemei haolamim (the wrath of the living G-d who lives for ever and ever). 8And the Heikhal was filled with smoke from the kavod (glory) of Hashem and from His oz (power); and no one was being able to enter into the Heikhal until should be completed the sheva hamakkot (seven plagues) of the shiva malachim (seven angels).#15:8 Isa 6:4; Ex 40:34,35; 1Kgs 8:10,11; 2Chr 5:13,14
