The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 8 of Revelation. The first trumpet brings hail and fire mixed with blood that burn a third of the earth, the trees, and all green grass. The scene recalls the plagues of Egypt and prophetic images of judgment upon creation. The damage affects one third, so the judgment is severe but still partial. The pattern of limited fractions will be important in the first trumpets and distinguishes these judgments from the absolute consummation described at the end of the book.

Und der erste Engel posaunte: und es ward ein Hagel und Feuer, mit Blut gemengt, und fiel auf die Erde; und der dritte Teil der Bäume verbrannte, und alles grüne Gras verbrannte.
Y el primer ángel tocó la trompeta, y fue hecho granizo y fuego, mezclado con sangre, y fueron arrojados a la tierra; y la tercera parte de los árboles fue quemada, y quemose toda la hierba verde.
El primero tocó la trompeta, y hubo granizo y fuego mezclados con sangre, que fueron arrojados a la tierra. Se quemó la tercera parte de la tierra, se quemó la tercera parte de los árboles y se quemó toda la hierba verde.
Le premier sonna de la trompette. Et il y eut de la grêle et du feu mêlés de sang, qui furent jetés sur la terre; et le tiers de la terre fut brûlé, et le tiers des arbres fut brûlé, et toute herbe verte fut brûlée.
E il primo angelo sonò; e venne una gragnuola, e del fuoco, mescolati con sangue; e furon gettati nella terra; e la terza parte della terra fu arsa; la terza parte degli alberi altresì, ed ogni erba verde fu bruciata.
E o primeiro anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e houve saraiva e fogo misturado com sangue, e foram lançados na terra, que foi queimada na sua terça parte; queimou-se a terça parte das árvores, e toda a erva verde foi queimada.
第一位天使吹號,就有冰雹和火攙著血扔在地上;地的三分之一和樹的三分之一被燒掉了,一切的青草也被燒掉了。
