## Revelation 16:5-6 in Context (Verses 2–9 KJV)
 
 [2 ](/kjv/revelation/16/2) And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and *upon* them which worshipped his image.
 
 [3 ](/kjv/revelation/16/3) And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead *man*: and every living soul died in the sea.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/revelation/16/4) And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/revelation/16/5) And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/revelation/16/6) For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/revelation/16/7) And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous *are* thy judgments.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/revelation/16/8) And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/revelation/16/9) And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
