For you alone are holy. All the nations will come and worship before you because your righteous acts have been revealed.After this I looked, and the heavenly temple— the tabernacle of testimony— was opened.Out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues, dressed in pure, bright linen, with golden sashes wrapped around their chests.One of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls filled with the wrath of God who lives forever and ever.Then the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.
