Then another angel came out from the temple and cried out in a loud voice to the one who was sitting on the cloud, "Use your sickle and reap the harvest, because the time has come; the earth is ripe for the harvest!"

Then I saw another angel come out of the temple in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle.

After this I saw the temple in heaven open, with the Sacred Tent in it.

Then one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven gold bowls full of the anger of God, who lives forever and ever.

Then I saw heaven open, and there was a white horse. Its rider is called Faithful and True; it is with justice that he judges and fights his battles.

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord. He was sitting on his throne, high and exalted, and his robe filled the whole Temple.

They were calling out to each other: "Holy, holy, holy! The LORD Almighty is holy! His glory fills the world."

Put the two stone tablets inside the Box and put the lid on top of it.

I will meet you there, and from above the lid between the two winged creatures I will give you all my laws for the people of Israel.

The LORD gave Moses the following instructions. When it is time to break camp, Aaron and his sons shall enter the Tent, take down the curtain in front of the Covenant Box, and cover the Box with it.

When it is time to break camp, the clan of Kohath shall come to carry the sacred objects only after Aaron and his sons have finished covering them and all their equipment. The Kohath clan must not touch the sacred objects, or they will die. These are the responsibilities of the Kohath clan whenever the Tent is moved.

When the people left Sinai, the holy mountain, they traveled three days. The LORD's Covenant Box always went ahead of them to find a place for them to camp.

Their minds, indeed, were closed; and to this very day their minds are covered with the same veil as they read the books of the old covenant. The veil is removed only when a person is joined to Christ.

But it can be removed, as the scripture says about Moses: "His veil was removed when he turned to the Lord."

In it were the gold altar for the burning of incense and the Covenant Box all covered with gold and containing the gold jar with the manna in it, Aaron's stick that had sprouted leaves, and the two stone tablets with the commandments written on them.

This is how those things have been arranged. The priests go into the outer tent every day to perform their duties,

The Holy Spirit clearly teaches from all these arrangements that the way into the Most Holy Place has not yet been opened as long as the outer tent still stands.

At that very moment there was a violent earthquake; a tenth of the city was destroyed, and seven thousand people were killed. The rest of the people were terrified and praised the greatness of the God of heaven.

Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The power to rule over the world belongs now to our Lord and his Messiah, and he will rule forever and ever!"

From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder. In front of the throne seven lighted torches were burning, which are the seven spirits of God.

Then the angel took the incense container, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it on the earth. There were rumblings and peals of thunder, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

There were flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder, and a terrible earthquake. There has never been such an earthquake since the creation of human beings; this was the worst earthquake of all!

The first angel blew his trumpet. Hail and fire, mixed with blood, came pouring down on the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees, and every blade of green grass.

Huge hailstones, each weighing as much as a hundred pounds, fell from the sky on people, who cursed God on account of the plague of hail, because it was such a terrible plague.

This time tomorrow I will cause a heavy hailstorm, such as Egypt has never known in all its history.

Some of the king's officials were afraid because of what the LORD had said, and they brought their slaves and animals indoors for shelter.

Then the LORD said to Moses, "Raise your hand toward the sky, and hail will fall over the whole land of Egypt---on the people, the animals, and all the plants in the fields."

a heavy hailstorm, with lightning flashing back and forth. It was the worst storm that Egypt had ever known in all its history.

The region of Goshen, where the Israelites lived, was the only place where there was no hail.

Pray to the LORD! We have had enough of this thunder and hail! I promise to let you go; you don't have to stay here any longer."

While the Amorites were running down the pass from the Israelite army, the LORD made large hailstones fall down on them all the way to Azekah. More were killed by the hailstones than by the Israelites.

Have you ever visited the storerooms, where I keep the snow and the hail?

I keep them ready for times of trouble, for days of battle and war.

Hailstones and flashes of fire came from the lightning before him and broke through the dark clouds.

He sent hail and lightning on their land instead of rain;

The Lord has someone strong and powerful ready to attack them, someone who will come like a hailstorm, like a torrent of rain, like a rushing, overpowering flood, and will overwhelm the land.

The LORD will let everyone hear his majestic voice and feel the force of his anger. There will be flames, cloudbursts, hailstones, and torrents of rain.

(But hail will fall on the forests, and the city will be torn down.)

Tell the prophets that their wall is going to fall down. I will send a pouring rain. Hailstones will fall on it, and a strong wind will blow against it.

I will punish him with disease and bloodshed. Torrents of rain and hail, together with fire and sulfur, will pour down on him and his army and on the many nations that are on his side.
