8:1  et cum aperuisset sigillum              1.  And when he had opened the seventh
septimum factum est silentium in caelo       seal, there was silence in heaven about
quasi media hora                             the space of half an hour.

8:2  et vidi septem angelos stantes in       2.  And I saw the seven angels which
conspectu Dei et datae sunt illis            stood before God; and to them were
septem tubae                                 given seven trumpets.

8:3  et alius angelus venit et stetit        3.  And another angel came and stood at
ante altare habens turibulum aureum et       the altar, having a golden censer; and
data sunt illi incensa multa ut daret        there was given unto him much incense,
orationibus sanctorum omnium super           that he should offer it with the
altare aureum quod est ante thronum          prayers of all saints upon the golden
                                             altar which was before the throne.

8:4  et ascendit fumus incensorum de         4.  And the smoke of the incense, which
orationibus sanctorum de manu angeli         came with the prayers of the saints,
coram Deo                                    ascended up before God out of the
                                             angel's hand.

8:5  et accepit angelus turibulum et         5.  And the angel took the censer, and
implevit illud de igne altaris et misit      filled it with fire of the altar, and
in terram et facta sunt tonitrua et          cast it into the earth: and there were
voces et fulgora et terraemotus              voices, and thunderings, and
                                             lightnings, and an earthquake.

8:6  et septem angeli qui habebant           6.  And the seven angels which had the
septem tubas paraverunt se ut tuba           seven trumpets prepared themselves to
canerent                                     sound.

8:7  et primus tuba cecinit et facta         7.  The first angel sounded, and there
est grando et ignis mixta in sanguine        followed hail and fire mingled with
et missum est in terram et tertia pars       blood, and they were cast upon the
terrae conbusta est et tertia pars           earth: and the third part of trees was
arborum conbusta est et omne faenum          burnt up, and all green grass was burnt
viride conbustum est                         up.

8:8  et secundus angelus tuba cecinit        8.  And the second angel sounded, and
et tamquam mons magnus igne ardens           as it were a great mountain burning
missus est in mare et facta est tertia       with fire was cast into the sea: and
pars maris sanguis                           the third part of the sea became blood;

8:9  et mortua est tertia pars               9.  And the third part of the creatures
creaturae quae habent animas et tertia       which were in the sea, and had life,
pars navium interiit                         died; and the third part of the ships
                                             were destroyed.

8:10  et tertius angelus tuba cecinit        10.  And the third angel sounded, and
et cecidit de caelo stella magna ardens      there fell a great star from heaven,
tamquam facula et cecidit in tertiam         burning as it were a lamp, and it fell
partem fluminum et in fontes aquarum         upon the third part of the rivers, and
                                             upon the fountains of waters;

8:11  et nomen stellae dicitur               11.  And the name of the star is called
Absinthius et facta est tertia pars          Wormwood: and the third part of the
aquarum in absinthium et multi hominum       waters became wormwood; and many men
mortui sunt de aquis quia amarae factae      died of the waters, because they were
sunt                                         made bitter.

8:12  et quartus angelus tuba cecinit        12.  And the fourth angel sounded, and
et percussa est tertia pars solis et         the third part of the sun was smitten,
tertia pars lunae et tertia pars             and the third part of the moon, and the
stellarum ut obscuraretur tertia pars        third part of the stars; so as the
eorum et diei non luceret pars tertia        third part of them was darkened, and
et nox similiter                             the day shone not for a third part of
                                             it, and the night likewise.

8:13  et vidi et audivi vocem unius          13.  And I beheld, and heard an angel
aquilae volantis per medium caelum           flying through the midst of heaven,
dicentis voce magna vae vae vae              saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe,
habitantibus in terra de ceteris             woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by
vocibus tubae trium angelorum qui erant      reason of the other voices of the
tuba canituri                                trumpet of the three angels, which are
                                             yet to sound!
