Their bodies will lie in the public square of the great city(A)—which is figuratively called Sodom(B) and Egypt—where also their Lord was crucified.(C) For three and a half days some from every people, tribe, language and nation(D) will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial.(E) 10 The inhabitants of the earth(F) will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts,(G) because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.

11 But after the three and a half days(H) the breath[a] of life from God entered them,(I) and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.”(J) And they went up to heaven in a cloud,(K) while their enemies looked on.

13 At that very hour there was a severe earthquake(L) and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory(M) to the God of heaven.(N)

14 The second woe has passed; the third woe is coming soon.(O)

The Seventh Trumpet

15 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet,(P) and there were loud voices(Q) in heaven, which said:

“The kingdom of the world has become
    the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,(R)
    and he will reign for ever and ever.”(S)
