Ang Panghuling mga Salot
1Isa pang kagila-gilalas na pangitain ang nakita ko sa langit. May pitong anghel doon na may dalang pito pang salot. Iyon ang panghuling mga salot na ipapadala ng Dios bilang parusa sa mga tao.
2At nakita ko ang parang dagat na kasinglinaw ng kristal na may nagliliyab na apoy. Nakatayo roon ang mga nagtagumpay laban sa halimaw at sa imahen nito. Hindi sila nagpatatak ng numero na simbolo ng pangalan ng halimaw na iyon. May hawak silang mga alpa na ibinigay sa kanila ng Dios. 3Umaawit sila ng awit ni Moises na lingkod ng Dios, na siya ring awit ng Tupa. Ito ang awit nila:
“Panginoong Dios na makapangyarihan sa lahat,
kahanga-hanga ang inyong mga gawa!
Hari kayo ng lahat ng bansa,
ang mga pamamaraan ninyo ay makatarungan at tama!
4Sino ang hindi matatakot at hindi magpupuri sa inyo?
Kayo lang ang banal.
Lalapit at sasamba sa inyo ang mga tao sa lahat ng bansa,
sapagkat nakita na ng lahat ang matuwid ninyong gawa.”
5Pagkatapos nito, nakita ko na bumukas ang templo sa langit, ang Toldang Sambahan, kung saan nakalagay ang Kautusan. 6At mula roon sa templo ay lumabas ang pitong anghel na may dalang pitong salot. Nakasuot sila ng damit na puting-puti at may gintong pamigkis sa kanilang dibdib. 7Ang isa sa apat na buhay na nilalang ay nagbigay sa pitong anghel ng tig-iisang sisidlang ginto na puno ng mga parusa ng Dios na nabubuhay magpakailanman. 8Napuno ng usok ang templo dahil sa kadakilaan at kapangyarihan ng Dios. At walang makakapasok doon hanggaʼt hindi pa natatapos ang pitong salot na dala ng pitong anghel.
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.
