Siete ángeles con siete plagas
1Vi en el cielo otra señal grande y maravillosa: siete ángeles con las siete plagas, que son las últimas, pues con ellas se consumará la ira de Dios. 2Vi también un mar como de vidrio mezclado con fuego. De pie, a la orilla del mar, estaban los que habían vencido a la bestia, a su imagen y al número de su nombre. Tenían las arpas que Dios les había dado, 3y cantaban el himno de Moisés, siervo de Dios, y el himno del Cordero:
«Grandes y maravillosas son tus obras,
Señor Dios Todopoderoso.
Justos y verdaderos son tus caminos,
Rey de las naciones.15:3 de las naciones. Var. de los siglos.
4¿Quién no te temerá, oh Señor?
¿Quién no glorificará tu nombre?
Solo tú eres santo.
Todas las naciones vendrán
y te adorarán,
porque han salido a la luz
las obras de tu justicia».
5Después de esto miré, y en el cielo se abrió el templo, el tabernáculo del testimonio. 6Del templo salieron los siete ángeles que llevaban las siete plagas. Estaban vestidos de lino limpio y resplandeciente, y ceñidos con bandas de oro a la altura del pecho. 7Uno de los cuatro seres vivientes dio a cada uno de los siete ángeles una copa de oro llena del furor de Dios, quien vive por los siglos de los siglos. 8El templo se llenó del humo que procedía de la gloria y del poder de Dios, y nadie podía entrar allí hasta que se terminaran las siete plagas de los siete ángeles.
Seven Angels With Seven Plagues
1I saw in heaven another great and wonderful sign. Seven angels were about to bring the seven last plagues. The plagues would complete God’s anger. 2Then I saw something that looked like a sea of glass glowing with fire. Standing beside the sea were those who had won the battle over the beast. They had also overcome its statue and the number of its name. They held harps given to them by God. 3They sang the song of God’s servant Moses and of the Lamb. They sang,
“Lord God who rules over all,
everything you do is great and wonderful.
King of the nations,
your ways are true and fair.
4Lord, who will not have respect for you?
Who will not bring glory to your name?
You alone are holy.
All nations will come
and worship you.
They see that the things you do are right.”
5After this I looked, and I saw the temple in heaven. And it was opened. The temple is the holy tent where the tablets of the covenant law were kept. 6Out of the temple came the seven angels who were bringing the seven plagues. They were dressed in clean, shining linen. They wore gold strips of cloth around their chests. 7Then one of the four living creatures gave seven golden bowls to the seven angels. The bowls were filled with the anger of God, who lives for ever and ever. 8The temple was filled with smoke that came from the glory and power of God. No one could enter the temple at that time. They had to wait until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
