Revelation 16:2-7
New American Standard Bible
2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl (A)on the earth; and a harmful and painful (B)sore [a]afflicted the people (C)who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.
3 The second angel poured out his bowl (D)into the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man; and every living [b]thing in the sea died.
4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the (E)rivers and the springs of waters; and they (F)became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying, “(G)Righteous are You, (H)the One who is and who was, O (I)Holy One, because You (J)judged these things; 6 for they poured out (K)the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them (L)blood to drink. They [c]deserve it.” 7 And I heard (M)the altar saying, “Yes, (N)Lord God, the Almighty, (O)true and righteous are Your judgments.”
