The Seven Angels with Seven Plagues
1 Then I saw another great and marvelous sign in heaven: seven angels with the seven final plagues, because with them the wrath of God is completed.
2 I also saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had overcome *the beast, his image ¦ the image, the beast K BYZthe beast, his image, †and the number of his name ¦ and his mark, that is, the number of his name, Αν TRand the number of his name were standing by the sea of glass, holding ‡harps from ¦ the harps of K ANT BYZ HFharps from God. 3 They sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb:
“Great and marvelous are yoʋr works,
