Revelation, 15

1. And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.

1. Then I saw another great and marvelous sign in the heavens: seven angels brought seven plagues which are the last, for with these the wrath of God will end.

2. And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, [and] over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

2. There was a sea of crystal mingled with fire, and the conquerors of the beast, of its name and the mark of its name stood by it. They had been given the celestial harps

3. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous [are] thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true [are] thy ways, thou King of saints.

3. and they sang the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb: Great and marvelous are your works, O Lord, God and Master of the universe. Justice and truth guide your steps, O King of the nations.

4. Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for [thou] only [art] holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

4. Lord, who will not give honor and glory to your Name? For you alone are holy. All the nations will come and bow before you, for they have now seen your judgments.

5. And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:

5. Then the sanctuary of the Tent of Divine Declarations was opened,

6. And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.

6. and the seven angels bringing the seven plagues came out of the Sanctuary, clothed in pure and bright linen, with their waists girded with golden belts.

7. And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.

7. One of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden cups full of the wrath of God who lives for ever and ever.

8. And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

8. Then the sanctuary was filled with smoke which wraps God's glory and power, so that no one could enter until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.

Revelation chapter 15 sets the stage for the seven bowls of wrath. What heavenly vision precedes the final judgment? This majestic text describes seven angels with the last plagues and the victorious saints praising God. The chapter emphasizes the justice and holiness of God in His judgments. Themes of divine victory, heavenly worship, and the completion of God's wrath are prominent. Revelation 15 serves as a prelude to the climax of divine judgments. Examine with us five biblical passages that elucidate the greatness of this preliminary chapter.

Exodus 15:1: "Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord: 'I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously. He threw the horse and its rider into the sea.'" - The song of Moses after the deliverance from Egypt parallels the "song of Moses" in Revelation 15:3.

Amos 4:13: "He who forms the mountains, creates the wind and reveals his thoughts to man, he who turns the dawn into darkness and treads the high places of the earth: the Lord, the God of hosts, is his name." - This statement about God's power is similar to the praises in Revelation 15:3-4.

Exodus 40:34-35: "Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the Tent of Meeting, because the cloud was over it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle." - This description of God's glory in the tabernacle is similar to the scene in Revelation 15:8.

Leviticus 26:21: "If you remain hostile to me and will not listen to me, I will bring upon you seven times more plagues, according to your sins." - This warning of divine judgments in Leviticus is reflected in the "seven plagues" mentioned in Revelation 15:1.
