15:1  Then I saw another ·wonder [sign; miracle; portent] in heaven that was great and amazing. There were seven angels bringing seven ·disasters [plagues]. These are the last ·disasters [plagues], because ·after [or in] them, God’s ·anger [wrath] is ·finished [completed; ended].
15:2  I saw what looked like a sea of glass [1 Kin. 7:23–26; Ezek. 1:22] mixed with fire [19:20; 20:10]. All of those who had ·won the victory over [conquered] the beast and his ·idol [image] and over the number of his name [13:17] were standing by the sea of glass. They had harps ·that God had given them [L of/from God].
15:3  They sang the song of Moses [Ex. 15:1; Deut. 31:30], the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb: “·You do great and wonderful things [L Great and marvelous/amazing are your works; Ps. 111:2], Lord God ·Almighty [All-powerful]. ·Everything the Lord does is [L Your ways are] ·right [just] and true [Ps. 145:17], King of the nations.
15:4  ·Everyone will respect you [L Who will not fear you…?], Lord [Jer. 10:7], and ·will honor you [L honor/glorify your name]. [L Because; For] Only you are holy. All the nations will come and worship [L before] you [Ps. 86:9–10], because the right things you have done are now made known [Deut. 32:4].”
15:5  After ·this [L these things] I saw that the temple (the ·Tent [Tabernacle] of the ·Agreement [Testimony; Covenant Law]) in heaven was opened.
15:6  And the seven angels bringing the seven ·disasters [plagues] came out of the temple. They were dressed in ·clean [pure], ·shining [bright] linen and wore golden ·bands [sashes] tied around their chests [C garments worn by priests].
15:7  Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls filled with the ·anger [wrath] of God, who lives forever and ever.
15:8  The temple was filled with smoke [C smoke often symbolizes the presence of God; Ex. 40:34–38] from the glory and the power of God, and no one could enter the temple until the seven ·disasters [plagues] of the seven angels were ·finished [completed; ended; C accomplished their purpose].
