Revelation 11:16 in Context — Revelation 11

14 O segundo ai [já] passou; eis que o terceiro ai logo vem.

15 E o sétimo anjo tocou a trombeta, e houve grandes vozes no céu, dizendo: “Os reinos do mundo se tornaram do nosso Senhor, e do seu Cristo, e ele reinará para todo o sempre.”

16 E os vinte e quatro anciãos, que estão sentados diante de Deus em seus tronos, prostraram-se sobre seus rostos, e adoraram a Deus,

17 dizendo: “Graças te damos, Senhor Deus, o Todo-Poderoso, o que é, e que era, e que virá; porque tomaste o teu grande poder, e tens reinado;

18 E as nações se iraram, porém veio a tua ira, e o tempo dos mortos, para serem julgados, e para tu dares a recompensa aos teus servos, os profetas, e aos santos, e aos que temem o teu nome, a pequenos e a grandes; e para destruir os que destroem a terra.”
