Revelation of John 8:9-13

9 A third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of ^athe ships were destroyed.

10 The third angel blew his trumpet, and ^ba great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on ^cthe springs of water. 11 The name of the star is Wormwood. ^{▼▼ Wormwood is the name of a plant and of the bitter-tasting extract derived from it} A third of the waters ^ebecame wormwood, and many people died from the water, ^fbecause it had been made bitter.

12 The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of ^gthe sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light might be darkened, and a third of the day might be kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.

13 Then I looked, and I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice as it flew directly overhead, ^h“Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, at the blasts of the other trumpets that the three angels are about to blow!”
