The seventh seal is opened and seven angels appear with seven trumpets, ready to proclaim the purposes of God

And when the seventh stamp was undone there was quiet in heaven for about half an hour. When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
And I saw the seven angels who had their place before God; and seven horns were given to them. I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

Another angel casts fire on the earth, which produces terrible storms of vengeance

And another angel came and took his place at the altar, having a gold vessel for burning perfume; and there was given to him much perfume, so that he might put it with the prayers of all the saints on the gold altar which was before the high seat. Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.
And the smoke of the perfume, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand. The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand.
And the angel took the vessel; and he made it full of the fire of the altar, and sent it down on the earth: and there came thunders and voices and flames and a shaking of the earth. The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it on the earth. There followed thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake.

The seven angels prepare to sound their trumpets

And the seven angels who had the seven horns made ready for sounding them. The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

Four sound them

And at the sounding of the first, a rain of ice and fire, mixed with blood, was sent on the earth: and a third part of the earth, and of the trees, and all green grass was burned up. The first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. One third of the earth was burnt up, and one third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
And at the sounding of the second angel, it was as if a great mountain burning with fire was sent into the sea: and a third part of the sea became blood, The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,
And destruction came on a third part of the living things which were in the sea, and on a third part of the ships. and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed.
And at the sounding of the third angel, there went down from heaven a great star, burning like a flame, and it came on a third part of the rivers, and on the fountains of water. The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of the waters.
And the name of the star is Wormwood: and a third part of the waters became bitter; and a number of men came to their end because of the waters, for they were made bitter. The name of the star is called “Wormwood.” One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
And at the sounding of the fourth angel, a third part of the sun, and of the moon, and of the stars was made dark, so that there was no light for a third part of the day and of the night. The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars; so that one third of them would be darkened, and the day wouldn’t shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way.

Another angel denounces greater woes to come

And there came to my ears the cry of an eagle in flight in the middle of heaven, saying with a great voice, Trouble, trouble, trouble, to all on the earth, because of the other voices of the horns of the three angels, whose sounding is still to come. I saw, and I heard an eagle, flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe for those who dwell on the earth, because of the other voices of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound!”
