Revelation 15

The Seven Angels with Seven Plagues
1Then #[ch. 12:1, 3] I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing, #ch. 16:1; 17:1; 21:9seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is finished.
2And I saw #ch. 4:6; 21:18, 21 what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire—and also those #ch. 12:11 who had conquered the beast and its image and #ch. 13:17 the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass #ch. 5:8; 14:2with harps of God in their hands. 3And they sing #Ex. 15:1; Deut. 31:30 the song of Moses, #See Heb. 3:5 the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,
#
Deut. 32:3, 4; [Job 37:5; Ps. 111:2; 139:14; 145:17] “Great and amazing are your deeds,
O Lord God the Almighty!
# ch. 16:7; Hos. 14:9 Just and true are your ways,
O King of the nations!#15:3 Some manuscripts the ages
4 # ch. 14:7; Mal. 2:2 Who will not fear, O Lord,
and glorify your name?
For you alone are #ch. 16:5; Heb. 7:26 holy.
# See Ps. 86:9 All nations will come
and worship you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.”
5After this I looked, and #ch. 11:19 the sanctuary of #Ex. 38:21; Num. 1:50; Acts 7:44the tent#15:5 Or tabernacle of witness in heaven was opened, 6and out of the sanctuary came #See ver. 1 the seven angels with the seven plagues, clothed in pure, bright #ch. 19:8 linen, #ch. 1:13with golden sashes around their chests. 7And one of #ch. 4:6 the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven #[ch. 5:8] golden bowls full of the wrath of God #ch. 1:18; 4:9; 5:13who lives forever and ever, 8and #Ex. 40:34; Isa. 6:4; Hag. 2:7; [1 Kgs. 8:10, 11; 2 Chr. 5:13, 14] the sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and #Ex. 40:35; 1 Kgs. 8:11no one could enter the sanctuary until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished.

Seven Angels With Seven Plagues
1I saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign: seven angels with the seven last plagues—last, because with them God’s wrath is completed. 2And I saw what looked like a sea of glass glowing with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious over the beast and its image and over the number of its name. They held harps given them by God 3and sang the song of God’s servant Moses and of the Lamb:
“Great and marvelous are your deeds,
Lord God Almighty.
Just and true are your ways,
King of the nations.#15:3 Some manuscripts ages
4Who will not fear you, Lord,
and bring glory to your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations will come
and worship before you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.”#15:3,4 Phrases in this song are drawn from Psalm 111:2,3; Deut. 32:4; Jer. 10:7; Psalms 86:9; 98:2.
5After this I looked, and I saw in heaven the temple—that is, the tabernacle of the covenant law—and it was opened. 6Out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues. They were dressed in clean, shining linen and wore golden sashes around their chests. 7Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls filled with the wrath of God, who lives for ever and ever. 8And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
