11 After three and a half days a life-giving breath came from God and entered them, and they stood up; and all who saw them were terrified.
12 Then the two prophets heard a loud voice say to them from heaven, “Come up here!” As their enemies watched, they went up into heaven in a cloud.
13 At that very moment there was a violent earthquake; a tenth of the city was destroyed, and 7,000 people were killed. The rest of the people were terrified and praised the greatness of the God of heaven.
14 The second horror is over, but the third horror will come soon!
15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The power to rule over the world belongs now to our Lord and his Messiah, and he will rule for ever and ever!”
16 Then the 24 elders who sit on their thrones in front of God threw themselves face downwards and worshipped God,
17 saying:“Lord God Almighty, the one who is and who was!We thank you that you have taken your great powerand have begun to rule!
