6 So the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

7 The first angel sounded: ^aAnd hail and fire followed, mingled with blood, and they were thrown ^bto the earth. And a third ^cof the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.  ‡

10 Then the third angel sounded: ^aAnd a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, ^band it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water.  ‡

11 ^aThe name of the star is Wormwood. ^bA third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the water, because it was made bitter.  ‡
