Revelation 8:6-12

JMNT(i) 6 Next the seven agents (or: messengers) – the folks holding the seven trumpets – prepared themselves (made themselves ready), so that they may sound the trumpets. 7 And so the first one sounded a trumpet. Then hail and fire mixed in blood was birthed (came to be; or: hail and fire came to be mixed with blood), and it was thrown into the Land (earth; soil). And the third of the trees was burned down, and all pale-green pasture (or: grass) was burned down. 8 And then the second agent trumpeted. Then something like a great mountain, continuously being burned in fire, was thrown into the sea. And the third of the sea came to be blood. 9 And the third of the creatures within the sea – the ones (or: things) having souls – died. And the third of the ships was thoroughly ruined (decayed; destroyed). 10 Next the third agent sounded a trumpet. And a great star, continuously burning as a lamp (or: a shining one), fell out of the sky (or: heaven), and it fell upon the third of the rivers and upon the springs of the waters. 11 Now the name of the star is called Wormwood (or: Absinth). And so the third of the waters are being birthed (or: are coming to be) wormwood. Then many of the people died from out of the waters, because they were embittered (made bitter). 12 And the fourth agent trumpeted. So the third of the sun and the third of the moon, and the third of the stars were struck (or: received a blow), to the end that the third of them may be darkened, and the day may not shine [for] the third of it – and the night in like manner.
