Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven, as it were for half an hour.
1羔羊揭開第七印的時候,天上寂靜約有二刻。
2And I saw seven angels standing in the presence of God; and there were given to them seven trumpets.
2我看見那站在上帝面前的七位天使,有七枝號賜給他們。
3And another angel came, and stood before the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer of the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar, which is before the throne of God.
3另有一位天使,拿着金香爐來,站在祭壇旁邊。有許多香賜給他,要和眾聖徒的祈禱一同獻在寶座前的金壇上。
4And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints ascended up before God from the hand of the angel.
4那香的煙和眾聖徒的祈禱從天使的手中一同升到上帝面前。
5And the angel took the censer, and filled it with the fire of the altar, and cast it on the earth, and there were thunders and voices and lightnings, and a great earthquake.
5天使拿着香爐,盛滿了壇上的火,倒在地上;隨有雷轟、大聲、閃電、地震。
6And the seven angels, who had the seven trumpets, prepared themselves to sound the trumpet.
6拿着七枝號的七位天使就預備要吹。
7And the first angel sounded the trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mingled with blood, and it was cast on the earth, and the third part of the earth was burnt up, and the third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
7第一位天使吹號,就有雹子與火攙着血丟在地上;地的三分之一和樹的三分之一被燒了,一切的青草也被燒了。
8And the second angel sounded the trumpet: and as it were a great mountain, burning with fire, was cast into the sea, and the third part of the sea became blood:
8第二位天使吹號,就有彷彿火燒着的大山扔在海中;海的三分之一變成血,
9And the third part of those creatures died, which had life in the sea, and the third part of the ships was destroyed.
9海中的活物死了三分之一,船隻也壞了三分之一。
10And the third angel sounded the trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, burning as it were a torch, and it fell on the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters:
10第三位天使吹號,就有燒着的大星,好像火把從天上落下來,落在江河的三分之一和眾水的泉源上。
11And the name of the star is called Wormwood. And the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
11(這星名叫「茵蔯」。)眾水的三分之一變為茵蔯,因水變苦,就死了許多人。
12And the fourth angel sounded the trumpet, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened, and the day did not shine for a third part of it, and the night in like manner.
12第四位天使吹號,日頭的三分之一、月亮的三分之一、星辰的三分之一都被擊打,以致日月星的三分之一黑暗了,白晝的三分之一沒有光,黑夜也是這樣。
13And I beheld, and heard the voice of one eagle flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice: Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth: by reason of the rest of the voices of the three angels, who are yet to sound the trumpet.
13我又看見一個鷹飛在空中,並聽見牠大聲說:「三位天使要吹那其餘的號。你們住在地上的民,禍哉!禍哉!禍哉!」
