Revelation 16:6

Third Bowl: The Waters Turn to Blood

4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl ^aon the rivers and springs of water, ^band they became blood.

5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying:
^a“You are righteous,¹ O Lord,
The One ^bwho is and who was and who is to be,
Because You have judged these things.

6 For ^athey have shed the blood ^bof saints and prophets,
^cAnd You have given them blood to drink.
¹For it is their just due.”

7 And I heard¹ another from the altar saying, “Even so, ^aLord God Almighty, ^btrue and righteous are Your judgments.”

Fourth Bowl: Men Are Scorched

8 Then the fourth angel poured out his bowl ^aon the sun, ^band power was given to him to scorch men with fire.
