Wahyu 8:12

8:12 Then ²  the fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them were darkened. And there was no light for a third of the day ³  and for a third of the night likewise.

[9:2]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:2]  ⁵ tn Grk “the shaft,” but since this would be somewhat redundant in English, the pronoun “it” is used here.

[9:2]  ⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
