兩位見證人
1有一根杆子賜給我當量尺，同時有聲音吩咐我說：「起來，量一量上帝的殿和祭壇，並數點在殿裡敬拜的人。 2你不用量聖殿的外院，因為這部分已經給了外族人，他們要踐踏聖城四十二個月。 3我要賜權柄給我的兩個見證人，他們將身穿麻衣，傳道一千二百六十天。」
4這兩位見證人就是豎立在世界之主面前的那兩棵橄欖樹和兩座燈臺。 5若有人要傷害他們，他們便從口中噴出火焰，燒滅敵人；若有人企圖加害他們，必定會這樣被殺。 6他們擁有權能，在傳道期間可以關閉天空使雨不降在地上，又有權使水變成血，並隨時用各樣的災禍擊打世界。
7當他們做完見證以後，從無底坑上來的獸要和他們交戰，並戰勝他們，把他們殺掉。 8他們便陳屍在大城的街上，這大城按寓意名叫所多瑪，又名埃及，是他們的主被釘在十字架上的地方。 9三天半之久，他們的屍體不得埋葬，各民族、各部落、各語言族群、各國家的人都觀看他們的屍體。 10地上萬民便興高采烈，互相送禮道賀，因為這兩位先知曾使地上的人受苦。
11三天半過後，上帝的生命之氣進入二人裡面，他們便站立起來。看見的人都害怕極了！ 12接著天上有大聲音呼喚他們說：「上這裡來！」他們就在敵人的注視下駕雲升上天去。 13就在那一刻，發生了強烈的地震，那座城的十分之一倒塌了，因地震死亡的共七千人，生還者都在恐懼中將榮耀歸給天上的上帝。
14第二樣災難過去了，第三樣災難又接踵而來！
第七位天使吹號
15第七位天使吹響號角的時候，天上有大聲音說：「世上的國度現在已經屬於我們的主和祂所立的基督了。祂要作王，直到永永遠遠。」 16在上帝面前，坐在自己座位上的二十四位長老都一同俯伏敬拜上帝，說：
17「主啊！昔在、今在的全能上帝啊！
我們感謝你，
因你已施展大能作王了。
18世上的列國曾向你發怒，
現在是你向他們發烈怒的日子了。
時候已到，你要審判死人，
你要賞賜你的奴僕、先知、聖徒
和一切不論尊卑敬畏你名的人，
你要毀滅那些毀壞世界的人。」
19那時，天上上帝的聖殿敞開了，殿內的約櫃清晰可見，又有閃電、巨響、雷鳴、地震和大冰雹。
The two witnesses
1I was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told, ‘Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, with its worshippers. 2But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. 3And I will appoint my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.’ 4They are ‘the two olive trees’ and the two lampstands, and ‘they stand before the Lord of the earth.’11:4 See Zech. 4:3,11,14. 5If anyone tries to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies. This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die. 6They have power to shut up the heavens so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want.
7Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them. 8Their bodies will lie in the public square of the great city – which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt – where also their Lord was crucified. 9For three and a half days some from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial. 10The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.
11But after the three and a half days the breath11:11 Or Spirit (see Ezek. 37:5,14) of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. 12Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, ‘Come up here.’ And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on.
13At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14The second woe has passed; the third woe is coming soon.
The seventh trumpet
15The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said:
‘The kingdom of the world has become
the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,
and he will reign for ever and ever.’
16And the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshipped God, 17saying:
‘We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
the One who is and who was,
because you have taken your great power
and have begun to reign.
18The nations were angry,
and your wrath has come.
The time has come for judging the dead,
and for rewarding your servants the prophets
and your people who revere your name,
both great and small –
and for destroying those who destroy the earth.’
19Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant. And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake and a severe hailstorm.
