Revelation 15:6

Revelation 15:6

4 ^aWho shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name?
For You alone are ^bholy.
For ^call nations shall come and worship before You,
For Your judgments have been manifested.”

5 After these things I looked, and¹ behold, ^athe temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.

6 And out of the¹ temple came the seven angels having the seven plagues, ^aclothed in pure bright linen, and having their chests girded with golden bands.

7 ^aThen one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God ^bwho lives forever and ever.

8 ^aThe temple was filled with smoke ^bfrom the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
