Revelation 16:5 in Context — Revelation 16

3 Le second versa sa coupe dans la mer. Et elle devint du sang, comme celui d’un mort; et tout être vivant mourut, tout ce qui était dans la mer.

4 Le troisième versa sa coupe dans les fleuves et dans les sources d’eaux. Et ils devinrent du sang.

5 Et j’entendis l’ange des eaux qui disait: Tu es juste, toi qui es, et qui étais; tu es saint, parce que tu as exercé ce jugement.

6 Car ils ont versé le sang des saints et des prophètes, et tu leur as donné du sang à boire: ils en sont dignes.

7 Et j’entendis l’autel qui disait: Oui, Seigneur Dieu tout-puissant, tes jugements sont véritables et justes.
