Revelation 16:7

Read in context

Revelation 16:5–9 · Berean Standard Bible

5 And I heard the angel of the waters say: “Righteous are You, O Holy One, who is and was, because You have brought these judgments.

6 For they have spilled the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink, as they deserve.”

7 And I heard the altar reply: “Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are Your judgments.”

8 Then the fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given power to scorch the people with fire.

9 And the people were scorched by intense heat, and they cursed the name of God, who had authority over these plagues; yet they did not repent and give Him glory.
