11 But after the three and a half days, a breath of life from God entered them. When they stood on their feet, great fear fell on those who saw them.
12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven say to them, “Come up here.” So they went up to heaven in a cloud as their enemies looked on.
13 At that moment there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell in ruins. Seven thousand people were killed during the earthquake; the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe has passed, but the third is coming soon.
15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet. There were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world now belongs to our Lord and to his Anointed, and he will reign forever and ever.”
16 The twenty-four elders who sat on their thrones before God prostrated themselves and worshiped God
17 and said:“We give thanks to you, Lord God almighty,who are and who were.For you have assumed your great powerand have established your reign.
