9 Y murió la tercera parte de las criaturas que estaban en la mar, las cuales tenían vida; y la tercera parte de los navíos pereció.

10 Y el tercer ángel tocó la trompeta, y cayó del cielo una grande estrella, ardiendo como una antorcha, y cayó en la tercera parte de los ríos, y en las fuentes de las aguas.

11 Y el nombre de la estrella se dice Ajenjo. Y la tercera parte de las aguas fué vuelta en ajenjo: y muchos hombres murieron por las aguas, porque fueron hechas amargas.

12 Y el cuarto ángel tocó la trompeta, y fué herida la tercera parte del sol, y la tercera parte de la luna, y la tercera parte de las estrellas; de tal manera que se oscureció la tercera parte de ellos, y no alumbraba la tercera parte del día, y lo mismo de la noche.

13 Y miré, y oí un ángel volar por medio del cielo, diciendo en alta voz: ¡Ay! ¡ay! ¡ay! de los que moran en la tierra, por razón de las otras voces de trompeta de los tres ángeles que han de tocar!
