And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

Verse 18 is found in chapter 16 of Revelation. The seventh bowl is poured into the air, and a loud voice from the temple declares, "It is done." Lightning, voices, thunder, the greatest earthquake, and the division of the great city occur. The cities of the nations fall, and Babylon receives the cup of God’s wrath. Islands and mountains disappear, and enormous hailstones fall upon people, who again blaspheme God. The phrase "It is done" anticipates consummation and connects the cycle of bowls with the final outcome.

Und es wurden Stimmen und Donner und Blitze; und ward ein solches Erdbeben, wie solches nicht gewesen ist, seit Menschen auf Erden gewesen sind, solch Erdbeben also groß.
Entonces fueron hechos relámpagos y voces y truenos; y hubo un gran temblor de tierra, un terremoto tan grande, cual no fue jamás desde que los hombres han estado sobre la tierra.
Hubo relámpagos, voces y truenos, y se produjo un gran terremoto, tan fuerte y tan grande como no había ocurrido desde que hay seres humanos sobre la tierra.
Et il y eut des éclairs, des voix, des tonnerres, et un grand tremblement de terre, tel qu'il n'y avait jamais eu depuis que l'homme est sur la terre, un aussi grand tremblement.
E si fecero folgori, e tuoni, e suoni, e gran tremoto; tale che non ne fu giammai un simile, nè un così grande, da che gli uomini sono stati sopra la terra.
E houve vozes, e trovões, e relâmpagos, e um grande terremoto, como nunca tinha havido desde que há homens sobre a terra; tal foi este tão grande terremoto.
又有閃電、響聲、雷轟、大地震,自從地上有人以來沒有這樣大、這樣厲害的地震。
