10 E o terceiro anjo tocou sua trombeta; e uma grande estrela caiu do céu ardendo como uma tocha; e ela caiu na terça [parte] dos rios, e nas fontes de águas.

11 E o nome da estrela se chama Absinto; e a terça [parte] das águas se tornou absinto; e muitos homens morreram por causa das águas, porque elas se tornaram amargas.

12 E o quarto anjo tocou sua trombeta; e a terça [parte] do sol foi ferida, e [também] a terça [parte] da lua, e a terça [parte] das estrelas; para que a terça [parte] deles se escurecesse, e o dia não clareasse pela sua terça [parte] ; e [se tornasse] semelhante à noite.

13 E olhei, e ouvi um anjo que estava voando pelo meio do céu, dizendo em alta voz: “Ai, ai, ai dos que habitam sobre a terra por causa das demais vozes das trombetas dos três anjos que ainda vão tocar!”
