The Proclamations of Three Angels

Then I saw another angel (A)flying in the midst of heaven, (B)having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth—(C)to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people— saying with a loud voice, (D)“Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; (E)and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.”

And another angel followed, saying, (F)“Babylon[a] is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because (G)she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, (H)“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his (I)mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself (J)shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is (K)poured out full strength into (L)the cup of His indignation. (M)He shall be tormented with (N)fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And (O)the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

12 (P)Here is the [b]patience of the saints; (Q)here[c] are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying [d]to me, “Write: (R)‘Blessed are the dead (S)who die in the Lord from now on.’ ”

“Yes,” says the Spirit, (T)“that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow (U)them.”
