13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: happy are those who from now on die in the service of the Lord!”“Yes indeed!” answers the Spirit. “They will enjoy rest from their hard work, because the results of their service go with them.”
14 Then I looked, and there was a white cloud, and sitting on the cloud was what looked like a human being, with a crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand.
15 Then another angel came out from the temple and cried out in a loud voice to the one who was sitting on the cloud, “Use your sickle and reap the harvest, because the time has come; the earth is ripe for the harvest!”
16 Then the one who sat on the cloud swung his sickle on the earth, and the earth's harvest was reaped.
17 Then I saw another angel come out of the temple in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle.
18 Then another angel, who is in charge of the fire, came from the altar. He shouted in a loud voice to the angel who had the sharp sickle, “Use your sickle, and cut the grapes from the vineyard of the earth, because the grapes are ripe!”
19 So the angel swung his sickle on the earth, cut the grapes from the vine, and threw them into the winepress of God's furious anger.
