New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
3 The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man; and every living thing in the sea died.
4
Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of waters; and they became blood.
5
And I heard the angel of the waters saying, 'Righteous are You, the One who is and who was, O Holy One, because You judged these things;
6
for they poured out the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink. They deserve it.'
7
And I heard the altar saying, 'Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments.'
King James Version
Chapter 16
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. 4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. 6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. 7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.Christian Standard Bible
