9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
1Kisha nikaona ishara nyingine mbinguni, kubwa na ya kushangaza. Palikuwa hapo malaika saba wenye mabaa makubwa saba ya mwisho. Kwa mabaa hayo makubwa saba, ghadhabu ya Mungu imekamilishwa.
2Kisha nikaona kitu kama bahari ya kioo, imechanganywa na moto. Nikawaona pia wale watu waliomshinda yule mnyama na sanamu yake na ambaye jina lake lilitajwa kwa ile tarakimu. Watu hao walikuwa wamesimama kando ya hiyo bahari ya kioo, wakiwa na vinubi walivyopewa na Mungu.
3Walikuwa wakiimba wimbo wa Mose, mtumishi wa Mungu, na wimbo wa Mwanakondoo: "Bwana Mungu Mwenye Uwezo, matendo yako ni makuu mno! Ewe Mfalme wa mataifa, njia zako ni za haki na za kweli!
4Bwana, ni nani asiyekucha wewe? Nani asiyelitukuza jina lako? Wewe peke yako ni Mtakatifu. Mataifa yote yatakujia na kukuabudu maana matendo yako ya haki yameonekana na wote."
5Baada ya hayo nikaona Hekalu limefunguliwa mbinguni, na ndani yake hema ionyeshayo kuwapo kwa Mungu.
6Basi, wale malaika saba wenye mabaa saba wakatoka humo Hekaluni, wakiwa wamevaa nguo za kitani safi zenye kung'aa, na kanda za dhahabu vifuani mwao.
7Kisha, mmojawapo wa vile viumbe vinne akawapa hao malaika saba mabakuli ya dhahabu yaliyojaa ghadhabu ya Mungu, aishiye milele na milele.
8Hekalu likajaa moshi uliosababishwa na utukufu na nguvu ya Mungu, na hakuna mtu aliyeweza kuingia Hekaluni mpaka mwisho wa mabaa makubwa saba ya wale malaika saba.
