Angel Verses From the Old Testament

“Let us look carefully at the whole host of the Lord’s angels; they stand ready to serve His will.” + St. Clement I

Genesis

Then God said: Let there be light, and there was light. Genesis 1:3

God saw that the light was good. God then separated the light from the darkness. Genesis 1:4

“St. Augustine believed that the light first created by God that was found to be good was the angelic order. When the light was separated into day and night St. Augustine saw this as the judgment of the angelic order because the separation was not stated to be good. God’s angelic order had now been separated into angels and demons. Source: Exorcism – The Battle Against Satan and His Demons by Fr. Vincent Lampert

God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” Evening came, and morning followed—the first day. Genesis 1:5

Then God said: Let us make human beings in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the tame animals, all the wild animals, and all the creatures that crawl on the earth. Genesis 1:26

Thus the heavens and the earth and all their array were completed. Genesis 2:1

He expelled the man, stationing the cherubim and the fiery revolving sword east of the garden of Eden, to guard the way to the tree of life. Genesis 3:24

The sons of God saw how beautiful the daughters of human beings were, and so they took for their wives whomever they pleased. Genesis 6:2

The LORD’s angel found her by a spring in the wilderness, the spring on the road to Shur, Genesis 16:7

But the LORD’s angel told her: “Go back to your mistress and submit to her authority. Genesis 16:9

I will make your descendants so numerous,” added the LORD’s angel, “that they will be too many to count.” Genesis 16:10

Then the LORD’s angel said to her: “You are now pregnant and shall bear a son; you shall name him Ishmael, For the LORD has heeded your affliction. Genesis 16:11

Looking up, he saw three men standing near him. When he saw them, he ran from the entrance of the tent to greet them; and bowing to the ground, Genesis 18:2

Now that you have come to your servant, let me bring you a little food, that you may refresh yourselves; and afterward you may go on your way.” “Very well,” they replied, “do as you have said.” Genesis 18:5

Then he got some curds and milk, as well as the calf that had been prepared, and set these before them, waiting on them under the tree while they ate. Genesis 18:8

As the men turned and walked on toward Sodom, Abraham remained standing before the LORD. Genesis 18:22

The two angels reached Sodom in the evening, as Lot was sitting at the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he got up to greet them; and bowing down with his face to the ground, Genesis 19:1

He said, “Please, my lords, come aside into your servant’s house for the night, and bathe your feet; you can get up early to continue your journey.” But they replied, “No, we will pass the night in the town square.” Genesis 19:2

He urged them so strongly, however, that they turned aside to his place and entered his house. He prepared a banquet for them, baking unleavened bread, and they dined. Genesis 19:3

They called to Lot and said to him, “Where are the men who came to your house tonight? Bring them out to us that we may have sexual relations with them.” Genesis 19:5

I have two daughters who have never had sexual relations with men. Let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them as you please. But do not do anything to these men, for they have come under the shelter of my roof.” Genesis 19:8

They replied, “Stand back! This man,” they said, “came here as a resident alien, and now he dares to give orders! We will treat you worse than them!” With that, they pressed hard against Lot, moving in closer to break down the door. Genesis 19:9

But his guests put out their hands, pulled Lot inside with them, and closed the door; Genesis 19:10

They struck the men at the entrance of the house, small and great, with such a blinding light that they were utterly unable to find the doorway. Genesis 19:11

Then the guests said to Lot: “Who else belongs to you here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, all who belong to you in the city—take them away from this place! Genesis 19:12

We are about to destroy this place, for the outcry reaching the LORD against those here is so great that the LORD has sent us to destroy it.” Genesis 19:13

As dawn was breaking, the angels urged Lot on, saying, “Come on! Take your wife with you and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punishment of the city.” Genesis 19:15

When he hesitated, the men, because of the LORD’s compassion for him, seized his hand and the hands of his wife and his two daughters and led them to safety outside the city. Genesis 19:16

As soon as they had brought them outside, they said: “Flee for your life! Do not look back or stop anywhere on the Plain. Flee to the hills at once, or you will be swept away.” Genesis 19:17

“Oh, no, my lords!” Lot replied to them. Genesis 19:18

God heard the boy’s voice, and God’s angel called to Hagar from heaven: “What is the matter, Hagar? Do not fear; God has heard the boy’s voice in this plight of his. Genesis 21:17

But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered. Genesis 22:11

“Do not lay your hand on the boy,” said the angel. “Do not do the least thing to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you did not withhold from me your son, your only one.” Genesis 22:12

A second time the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven Genesis 22:15

The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and the land of my relatives, and who confirmed by oath the promise he made to me, ‘I will give this land to your descendants’—he will send his angel before you, and you will get a wife for my son there. Genesis 24:7

He replied: ‘The LORD, in whose presence I have always walked, will send his angel with you and make your journey successful, and so you will get a wife for my son from my own family and my father’s house. Genesis 24:40

Then he had a dream: a stairway rested on the ground, with its top reaching to the heavens; and God’s angels were going up and down on it. Genesis 28:12

In the dream God’s angel said to me, ‘Jacob!’ and I replied, ‘Here I am!’ Genesis 31:11

Meanwhile Jacob continued on his own way, and God’s angels encountered him. Genesis 32:2

When Jacob saw them he said, “This is God’s encampment.” So he named that place Mahanaim. Genesis 32:3

Jacob was left there alone. Then a man wrestled with him until the break of dawn. Genesis 32:25

When the man saw that he could not prevail over him, he struck Jacob’s hip at its socket, so that Jacob’s socket was dislocated as he wrestled with him. Genesis 32:26

The man then said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go until you bless me.” Genesis 32:27

“What is your name?” the man asked. He answered, “Jacob.” Genesis 32:28

Then the man said, “You shall no longer be named Jacob, but Israel, because you have contended with divine and human beings and have prevailed.” Genesis 32:29

Jacob then asked him, “Please tell me your name.” He answered, “Why do you ask for my name?” With that, he blessed him. Genesis 32:30

The angel who has delivered me from all harm, bless these boys That in them my name be recalled, and the names of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac, And they may become teeming multitudes upon the earth!” Genesis 48:16

But now God’s anger flared up at him for going, and the angel of the LORD took up a position on the road as his adversary. As Balaam was riding along on his donkey, accompanied by two of his servants, Numbers 22:22

The donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with sword drawn. The donkey turned off the road and went into the field, and Balaam beat the donkey to bring her back on the road. Numbers 22:23

Then the angel of the LORD stood in a narrow lane between vineyards with a stone wall on each side. Numbers 22:24

When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD there, she pressed against the wall; and since she squeezed Balaam’s leg against the wall, he beat her again. Numbers 22:25

Then the angel of the LORD again went ahead, and stood next in a passage so narrow that there was no room to move either to the right or to the left. Numbers 22:26

When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD there, she lay down under Balaam. Balaam’s anger flared up and he beat the donkey with his stick. Numbers 22:27

Then Balaam said to the angel of the LORD, “I have sinned. Yet I did not know that you took up a position to oppose my journey. Since it has displeased you, I will go back home.” Numbers 22:34

But the angel of the LORD said to Balaam: “Go with the men; but you may say only what I tell you.” So Balaam went on with the princes of Balak. Numbers 22:35

Gideon, now aware that it had been the messenger of the LORD, said, “Alas, Lord GOD, that I have seen the messenger of the LORD face to face!” Judges 6:22

An angel of the LORD appeared to the woman and said to her: Though you are barren and have had no children, you will conceive and bear a son. Judges 13:3

Manoah then prayed to the LORD. “Please, my Lord,” he said, “may the man of God whom you sent return to us to teach us what to do for the boy who is to be born.” Judges 13:8

God heard the prayer of Manoah, and the angel of God came again to the woman as she was sitting in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her. Judges 13:9

The angel of the LORD answered Manoah: Your wife must be careful about all the things of which I spoke to her. Judges 13:13

Then Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, “Permit us to detain you, so that we may prepare a young goat for you.” Judges 13:15

But the angel of the LORD answered Manoah: Though you detained me, I would not eat your food. But if you want to prepare a burnt offering, then offer it up to the LORD. For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the LORD. Judges 13:16

Then Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, “What is your name, that we may honor you when your words come true?” Judges 13:17

The angel of the LORD answered him: Why do you ask my name? It is wondrous. Judges 13:18

As the flame rose to the heavens from the altar, the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar. When Manoah and his wife saw this, they fell on their faces to the ground; Judges 13:20

But the angel of the LORD was seen no more by Manoah and his wife. Then Manoah, realizing that it was the angel of the LORD, Judges 13:21

The wing of the cherub, five cubits, touched the wall of the house, and the other wing, five cubits, was joined to the wing of the other cherub. 2 Chronicles 3:12

Tobit

So Raphael was sent to heal them both: to remove the white scales from Tobit’s eyes, so that he might again see with his own eyes God’s light; and to give Sarah, the daughter of Raguel, as a wife to Tobiah, the son of Tobit, and to rid her of the wicked demon Asmodeus. For it fell to Tobiah’s lot to claim her before any others who might wish to marry her. Tobit 3:17

Here I am, a blind man who cannot see the light of heaven, but must remain in darkness, like the dead who no longer see the light! Though alive, I am among the dead. I can hear people’s voices, but I do not see them.” The young man said, “Take courage! God’s healing is near; so take courage!” Tobit then said: “My son Tobiah wants to go to Media. Can you go with him to show him the way? I will pay you your wages, brother.” He answered: “Yes, I will go with him, and I know all the routes. I have often traveled to Media and crossed all its plains so I know well the mountains and all its roads.” Tobit 5:10

He replied, “Why? What need do you have for a tribe? Aren’t you looking for a hired man?” Tobit replied, “I only want to know, brother, whose son you truly are and what your name is.” Tobit 5:12

He answered, “I am Azariah, son of the great Hananiah, one of your own kindred.” Tobit 5:13

I will even add a bonus to your wages!” The young man replied: “I will go with him. Do not fear. In good health we will leave you, and in good health we will return to you, for the way is safe.” Tobit 5:16

Tobit said, “Blessing be upon you, brother.” Then he called his son and said to him: “Son, prepare whatever you need for the journey, and set out with your kinsman. May God in heaven protect you on the way and bring you back to me safe and sound; may His angel accompany you for your safety, son.” Tobit 5:17

For a good angel will go with him, his journey will be successful, and he will return in good health.” Tobit 5:22

When the young man left home, accompanied by the angel, the dog followed Tobiah out and went along with them. Both journeyed along, and when the first night came, they camped beside the Tigris River. Tobit 6:2

But the angel said to the young man, “Grab the fish and hold on to it!” He seized the fish and hauled it up on dry land. Tobit 6:4

The angel then told him: “Slit the fish open and take out its gall, heart, and liver, and keep them with you; but throw away the other entrails. Its gall, heart, and liver are useful for medicine.” Tobit 6:5

Then the young man asked the angel this question: “Brother Azariah, what medicine is in the fish’s heart, liver, and gall?” Tobit 6:7

Raphael said to the young man, “Brother Tobiah!” He answered, “Here I am!” Raphael continued, “Tonight we must stay in the house of Raguel, who is a relative of yours. He has a beautiful daughter named Sarah, Tobit 6:11

But Tobiah said to Raphael in reply, “Brother Azariah, I have heard that she has already been given in marriage to seven husbands, and that they have died in the bridal chamber. On the very night they approached her, they would die. I have also heard it said that it was a demon that killed them. Tobit 6:14

Raphael said to him: “Do you not remember your father’s commands? He ordered you to marry a woman from your own ancestral family. Now listen to me, brother; do not worry about that demon. Take Sarah. I know that tonight she will be given to you as your wife! Tobit 6:16

As soon as the demon smells the odor, it will flee and never again show itself near her. Then when you are about to have intercourse with her, both of you must first get up to pray. Beg the Lord of heaven that mercy and protection be granted you. Do not be afraid, for she was set apart for you before the world existed. You will save her, and she will go with you. And I assume that you will have children by her, and they will be like brothers for you. So do not worry.” Tobit 6:18

When they entered Ecbatana, Tobiah said, “Brother Azariah, bring me straight to the house of our kinsman Raguel.” So he did, and they came to the house of Raguel, whom they found seated by his courtyard gate. They greeted him first, and he answered, “Many greetings to you, brothers! Welcome! You have come in peace! Now enter in peace!” And he brought them into his house. Tobit 7:1

Afterward, Raguel slaughtered a ram from the flock and gave them a warm reception. When they had washed, bathed, and reclined to eat and drink, Tobiah said to Raphael, “Brother Azariah, ask Raguel to give me my kinswoman Sarah.” Tobit 7:9

The odor of the fish repulsed the demon, and it fled to the upper regions of Egypt; Raphael went in pursuit of it and there bound it hand and foot. Then Raphael returned immediately. Tobit 8:3

Then Tobiah called Raphael and said to him: Tobit 9:1

“Brother Azariah, take along with you from here four servants and two camels and travel to Rages. Go to Gabael’s house and give him this bond. Get the money and then bring him along with you to the wedding celebration. Tobit 9:2

So Raphael, together with the four servants and two camels, traveled to Rages in Media, where they stayed at Gabael’s house. Raphael gave Gabael his bond and told him about Tobit’s son Tobiah, that he had married and was inviting him to the wedding celebration. Gabael got up and counted out for him the moneybags with their seals, and they packed them on the camels. Tobit 9:5

Raphael said: “You know how we left your father. Tobit 11:2

So both went on ahead together, and Raphael said to him, “Take the gall in your hand!” And the dog ran along behind them. Tobit 11:4

Raphael said to Tobiah before he came near to his father: “I know that his eyes will be opened. Tobit 11:7

Weeping, he exclaimed, “I can see you, son, the light of my eyes!” Then he prayed, “Blessed be God, blessed be his great name, and blessed be all His holy angels. May his great name be with us, and blessed be all the angels throughout all the ages. Tobit 11:14

So Tobiah called Raphael and said, “Take as your wages half of all that you have brought back, and farewell!” Tobit 12:5

Raphael called the two of them aside privately and said to them: “Bless God and give him thanks before all the living for the good things he has done for you, by blessing and extolling his name in song. Proclaim before all with due honor the deeds of God, and do not be slack in thanking him. Tobit 12:6

Now when you, Tobit, and Sarah prayed, it was I (Raphael) who presented the record of your prayer before the Glory of the Lord; and likewise whenever you used to bury the dead. Tobit 12:12

I (Raphael) was sent to put you to the test. At the same time, however, God sent me to heal you and your daughter-in-law Sarah. Tobit 12:13

I am Raphael, one of the seven angels who stand and serve before the Glory of the Lord.” Tobit 12:15

I am Raphael, one of the seven angels who stand and serve before the Glory of the Lord.” Tobit 12:15

But Raphael said to them: “Do not fear; peace be with you! Bless God now and forever. Tobit 12:17

So now bless the Lord on earth and give thanks to God. Look, I am ascending to the one who sent me. Write down all that has happened to you.” And he ascended. Tobit 12:20

They kept blessing God and singing his praises, and they continued to give thanks for these marvelous works that God had done, because an angel of God appeared to them. Tobit 12:22

She replied: “I saw you, my lord, as an angel of God, and my heart was shaken by fear of your majesty. Esther 4:13

But just as Heliodorus was arriving at the treasury with his bodyguards, the Lord of spirits and all authority produced an apparition so great that those who had been bold enough to accompany Heliodorus were panic-stricken at God’s power and fainted away in terror. 2 Maccabees 3:24

There appeared to them a richly caparisoned horse, mounted by a fearsome rider. Charging furiously, the horse attacked Heliodorus with its front hooves. The rider was seen wearing golden armor. 2 Maccabees 3:25

Suddenly, while they were still near Jerusalem, a horseman appeared at their head, clothed in white garments and brandishing gold weapons. 2 Maccabees 11:8

But when Judas’ first cohort appeared, the enemy was overwhelmed with fear and terror at the manifestation of the all-seeing One. Scattering in every direction, they rushed away in such headlong flight that in many cases they wounded one another, pierced by the points of their own swords. 2 Maccabees 12:22

Calling upon God, he spoke in this manner: “You, master, sent your angel in the days of King Hezekiah of Judea, and he slew a hundred and eighty-five thousand men of Sennacherib’s camp. 2 Maccabees 15:22

And now, Sovereign of the heavens, send a good angel to spread fear and trembling ahead of us. 2 Maccabees 15:23

Fighting with their hands and praying to God with their hearts, they laid low at least thirty-five thousand, and rejoiced greatly over this manifestation of God’s power. 2 Maccabees 15:27

Ezekiel

From within it figures in the likeness of four living creatures appeared. This is what they looked like: Ezekiel 1:5

They were in human form, but each had four faces and four wings, Ezekiel 1:6

And their legs were straight, the soles of their feet like the hooves of a bull, gleaming like polished brass. Ezekiel 1:7

Human hands were under their wings, and the wings of one touched those of another. Ezekiel 1:8

Their faces and their wings looked out on all their four sides; they did not turn when they moved, but each went straight ahead. Ezekiel 1:9

Their faces were like this: each of the four had a human face, and on the right the face of a lion, and on the left, the face of an ox, and each had the face of an eagle. Ezekiel 1:10

Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above. On each one, two wings touched one another, and the other two wings covered the body. Ezekiel 1:11

Each went straight ahead. Wherever the spirit would go, they went; they did not change direction when they moved. Ezekiel 1:12

And the appearance of the living creatures seemed like burning coals of fire. Something indeed like torches moved back and forth among the living creatures. The fire gleamed intensely, and from it lightning flashed. Ezekiel 1:13

The creatures darting back and forth flashed like lightning. Ezekiel 1:14

As I looked at the living creatures, I saw wheels on the ground, one alongside each of the four living creatures. Ezekiel 1:15

The wheels and their construction sparkled like yellow topaz, and all four of them looked the same: their construction seemed as though one wheel was inside the other. Ezekiel 1:16

When they moved, they went in any of the four directions without veering as they moved. Ezekiel 1:17

The four of them had rims, high and fearsome—eyes filled the four rims all around. Ezekiel 1:18

When the living creatures moved, the wheels moved with them; and when the living creatures were raised from the ground, the wheels also were raised. Ezekiel 1:19

Wherever the spirit would go, they went. And they were raised up together with the living creatures, for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. Ezekiel 1:20

Wherever the living creatures moved, the wheels moved; when they stood still, the wheels stood still. When they were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up with them. For the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. Ezekiel 1:21

Above the heads of the living creatures was a likeness of the firmament; it was awesome, stretching upwards like shining crystal over their heads. Ezekiel 1:22

Beneath the firmament their wings stretched out toward one another; each had two wings covering the body. Ezekiel 1:23

Then I heard the sound of their wings, like the roaring of mighty waters, like the voice of the Almighty. When they moved, the sound of the tumult was like the din of an army. And when they stood still, they lowered their wings. Ezekiel 1:24

While they stood with their wings lowered, a voice came from above the firmament over their heads. Ezekiel 1:25

And there were six men coming from the direction of the upper gate which faces north, each with a weapon of destruction in his hand. In their midst was a man dressed in linen, with a scribe’s case at his waist. They entered and stood beside the bronze altar. Ezekiel 9:2

Then the glory of the God of Israel moved off the cherub and went up to the threshold of the temple. He called to the man dressed in linen with the scribe’s case at his waist, Ezekiel 9:3

Then the glory of the God of Israel moved off the cherub and went up to the threshold of the temple. He called to the man dressed in linen with the scribe’s case at his waist, Ezekiel 9:3

Just then the man dressed in linen with the scribe’s case at his waist made his report: “I have done as you commanded!” Ezekiel 9:11

Then I looked and there above the firmament over the heads of the cherubim was something like a sapphire, something that looked like a throne. Ezekiel 10:1

And he said to the man dressed in linen: Go within the wheelwork under the cherubim; fill both your hands with burning coals from the place among the cherubim, then scatter them over the city. As I watched, he entered. Ezekiel 10:2

And he said to the man dressed in linen: Go within the wheelwork under the cherubim; fill both your hands with burning coals from the place among the cherubim, then scatter them over the city. As I watched, he entered. Ezekiel 10:2

Now the cherubim were standing to the south of the temple when the man went in and a cloud filled the inner court. Ezekiel 10:3

The glory of the LORD had moved off the cherubim to the threshold of the temple; the temple was filled with the cloud, the whole court brilliant with the glory of the LORD. Ezekiel 10:4

The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far as the outer court; it was like the voice of God Almighty speaking. Ezekiel 10:5

He commanded the man dressed in linen: Take fire from within the wheelwork among the cherubim. The man entered and stood by one of the wheels. Ezekiel 10:6

Thereupon a cherub stretched out a hand from among the cherubim toward the fire in the midst of the cherubim, took some, and put it in the hands of the one dressed in linen. He took it and came out. Ezekiel 10:7

Thereupon a cherub stretched out a hand from among the cherubim toward the fire in the midst of the cherubim, took some, and put it in the hands of the one dressed in linen. He took it and came out. Ezekiel 10:7

Something like a human hand was visible under the wings of the cherubim. Ezekiel 10:8

I also saw four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside each cherub, and the wheels appeared to have the sparkle of yellow topaz. Ezekiel 10:9

When they moved, they went in any of the four directions without veering as they moved; in whatever direction the first cherub faced, the others followed without veering as they went. Ezekiel 10:11

Their entire bodies—backs, hands, and wings—and wheels were covered with eyes all around like the four wheels. Ezekiel 10:12

Each living creature had four faces: the first a cherub, the second a human being, the third a lion, the fourth an eagle. Ezekiel 10:14

Each living creature had four faces: the first a cherub, the second a human being, the third a lion, the fourth an eagle. Ezekiel 10:14

When the cherubim rose up, they were indeed the living creatures I had seen by the river Chebar. Ezekiel 10:15

When the cherubim rose up, they were indeed the living creatures I had seen by the river Chebar. Ezekiel 10:15

When the cherubim moved, the wheels went beside them; when the cherubim lifted up their wings to rise from the earth, even then the wheels did not leave their sides. Ezekiel 10:16

When they stood still, the wheels stood still; when they rose up, the wheels rose up with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in them. Ezekiel 10:17

Then the glory of the LORD left the threshold of the temple and took its place upon the cherubim. Ezekiel 10:18

The cherubim lifted their wings and rose up from the earth before my eyes as they departed with the wheels beside them. They stopped at the entrance of the eastern gate of the LORD’s house, and the glory of the God of Israel was up above them. Ezekiel 10:19

These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the river Chebar. Now I knew they were cherubim. Ezekiel 10:20

These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the river Chebar. Now I knew they were cherubim. Ezekiel 10:20

Each of them had four faces and four wings, and something like human hands under their wings. Ezekiel 10:21

Their faces looked just like the faces I had seen by the river Chebar; and each one went straight ahead. Ezekiel 10:22

Then the cherubim lifted their wings and the wheels alongside them, with the glory of the God of Israel above them. Ezekiel 11:22

With a cherub I placed you; I put you on the holy mountain of God, where you walked among fiery stones. Ezekiel 28:14

Your commerce was full of lawlessness, and you sinned. Therefore I banished you from the mountain of God; the cherub drove you out from among the fiery stones. Ezekiel 28:16

Were figures of cherubim and palm trees: a palm tree between each pair of cherubim. Each cherub had two faces: Ezekiel 41:18

From the floor to the lintel of the door, cherubim and palm trees decorated the walls. Ezekiel 41:20

Cherubim and palm trees decorated the doors of the nave like the decoration on the walls. Outside a wooden lattice faced the vestibule. Ezekiel 41:25

Daniel

What you demand, O king, is too difficult; there is no one who can tell it to the king except the gods, who do not dwell among people of flesh.” Daniel 2:11

But the angel of the Lord went down into the furnace with Azariah and his companions, drove the fiery flames out of the furnace, Daniel 3:49

Nebuchadnezzar exclaimed, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who sent his angel to deliver the servants that trusted in him; they disobeyed the royal command and yielded their bodies rather than serve or worship any god except their own God. Daniel 3:95

In the vision I saw while in bed, a holy watcher came down from heaven Daniel 4:10

By decree of the watchers is this proclamation, by order of the holy ones, this sentence; That all who live may know that the Most High is sovereign over human kingship, Giving it to whom he wills, and setting it over the lowliest of mortals.’ Daniel 4:14

By decree of the watchers is this proclamation, by order of the holy ones, this sentence; That all who live may know that the Most High is sovereign over human kingship, Giving it to whom he wills, and setting it over the lowliest of mortals.’ Daniel 4:14

As for the king’s vision of a holy watcher, who came down from heaven and proclaimed: ‘Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave its stump in the earth. Bound with iron and bronze, let him be fed with the grass of the field, and bathed with the dew of heaven; let his lot be with wild beasts till seven years pass over him’— Daniel 4:20

My God sent his angel and closed the lions’ mouths so that they have not hurt me. For I have been found innocent before him; neither have I done you any harm, O king!” Daniel 6:23

A river of fire surged forth, flowing from where he sat; Thousands upon thousands were ministering to him, and myriads upon myriads stood before him. Daniel 7:10

A river of fire surged forth, flowing from where he sat; Thousands upon thousands were ministering to him, and myriads upon myriads stood before him. Daniel 7:10

I approached one of those present and asked him the truth of all this; in answer, he made known to me its meaning: Daniel 7:16

It grew even to the host of heaven, so that it cast down to earth some of the host and some of the stars and trampled on them. Daniel 8:10

I heard a holy one speaking, and another said to whichever one it was that spoke, “How long shall the events of this vision last concerning the daily sacrifice, the desolating sin, the giving over of the sanctuary and the host for trampling?” Daniel 8:13

And on the Ulai I heard a human voice that cried out, “Gabriel, explain the vision to this man.” Daniel 8:16

And on the Ulai I heard a human voice that cried out, “Gabriel, explain the vision to this man.” Daniel 8:16

I was still praying, when the man, Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision before, came to me in flight at the time of the evening offering. Daniel 9:21

As I looked up, I saw a man dressed in linen with a belt of fine gold around his waist. Daniel 10:5

His body was like chrysolite, his face shone like lightning, his eyes were like fiery torches, his arms and feet looked like burnished bronze, and the sound of his voice was like the roar of a multitude. Daniel 10:6

But the prince of the kingdom of Persia stood in my way for twenty-one days, until finally Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me. I left him there with the prince of the kingdom of Persia, Daniel 10:13

but the prince of the kingdom of Persia stood in my way for twenty-one days, until finally Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me. I left him there with the prince of the kingdom of Persia, Daniel 10:13

Then something like a hand touched my lips; I opened my mouth and said to the one standing before me, “My lord, I was seized with pangs at the vision and I was powerless. Daniel 10:16

The one who looked like a man touched me again and strengthened me, saying, Daniel 10:18

“Do you know,” he asked, “why I have come to you? Soon I must fight the prince of Persia again. When I leave, the prince of Greece will come; Daniel 10:20

“Do you know,” he asked, “why I have come to you? Soon I must fight the prince of Persia again. When I leave, the prince of Greece will come; Daniel 10:20

But I shall tell you what is written in the book of truth. No one supports me against these except Michael, your prince, Daniel 10:21

“At that time there shall arise Michael, the great prince, guardian of your people; It shall be a time unsurpassed in distress since the nation began until that time. At that time your people shall escape, everyone who is found written in the book. Daniel 12:1

But those with insight shall shine brightly like the splendor of the firmament, And those who lead the many to justice shall be like the stars forever. Daniel 12:3

I, Daniel, looked and saw two others, one standing on either bank of the river. Daniel 12:5

One of them said to the man clothed in linen, who was upstream, “How long shall it be to the end of these appalling things?” Daniel 12:6

The man clothed in linen, who was upstream, lifted his hands to heaven; and I heard him swear by him who lives forever that it should be for a time, two times, and half a time; and that, when the power of the destroyer of the holy people was brought to an end, all these things should end. Daniel 12:7

“Under a mastic tree,” he answered. “Your fine lie has cost you your head,” said Daniel; “for the angel of God has already received the sentence from God and shall split you in two.” Daniel 13:55

Hebrews

As far superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs. Hebrews 1:4

For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are my son; this day I have begotten you”? Or again: “I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me”? Hebrews 1:5

And again, when he leads the first-born into the world, he says: “Let all the angels of God worship him.” Hebrews 1:6

Of the angels he says: “He makes his angels winds and his ministers a fiery flame”; Hebrews 1:7

Of the angels he says: “He makes his angels winds and his ministers a fiery flame”; Hebrews 1:7

But to which of the angels has he ever said: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool”? Hebrews 1:13

Are they not all ministering spirits sent to serve, for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation? Hebrews 1:14

For if the word announced through angels proved firm, and every transgression and disobedience received its just recompense, Hebrews 2:2

For it was not to angels that he subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking. Hebrews 2:5

You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honor, Hebrews 2:7

Who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers subject to him. 1 Peter 3:22

Who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers subject to him. 1 Peter 3:22

Who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers subject to him. 1 Peter 3:22

2 Peter

For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but condemned them to the chains of Tartarus and handed them over to be kept for judgment; 2 Peter 2:4

And especially those who follow the flesh with its depraved desire and show contempt for lordship. Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to revile glorious beings, 2 Peter 2:10

Whereas angels, despite their superior strength and power, do not bring a reviling judgment against them from the Lord. 2 Peter 2:11

Jude

The angels too, who did not keep to their own domain but deserted their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains, in gloom, for the judgment of the great day. Jude 1:6

Enoch, of the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied also about them when he said, “Behold, the Lord has come with his countless holy ones. Jude 1:14

From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder. Seven flaming torches burned in front of the throne, which are the seven spirits of God. Revelation 4:5

From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder. Seven flaming torches burned in front of the throne, which are the seven spirits of God. Revelation 4:5

In front of the throne was something that resembled a sea of glass like crystal. In the center and around the throne, there were four living creatures covered with eyes in front and in back. Revelation 4:6

The first creature resembled a lion, the second was like a calf, the third had a face like that of a human being, and the fourth looked like an eagle in flight. Revelation 4:7

The four living creatures, each of them with six wings, were covered with eyes inside and out. Day and night they do not stop exclaiming: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.” Revelation 4:8

Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to the one who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, Revelation 4:9

Then I saw a mighty angel who proclaimed in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?” Revelation 5:2

But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to examine it. Revelation 5:3

I shed many tears because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to examine it. Revelation 5:4

Then I saw standing in the midst of the throne and the four living creatures and the elders a Lamb that seemed to have been slain. He had seven horns and seven eyes; these are the seven spirits of God sent out into the whole world. Revelation 5:6

When he took it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each of the elders held a harp and gold bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of the holy ones. Revelation 5:8

They sang a new hymn: “Worthy are you to receive the scroll and to break open its seals, for you were slain and with your blood you purchased for God those from every tribe and tongue, people and nation. Revelation 5:9

I looked again and heard the voices of many angels who surrounded the throne and the living creatures and the elders. They were countless in number, Revelation 5:11

Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, everything in the universe, cry out: “To the one who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor, glory and might, forever and ever.” Revelation 5:13

The four living creatures answered, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped. Revelation 5:14

Then I watched while the Lamb broke open the first of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures cry out in a voice like thunder, “Come forward.” Revelation 6:1

When he broke open the second seal, I heard the second living creature cry out, “Come forward.” Revelation 6:3

When he broke open the third seal, I heard the third living creature cry out, “Come forward.” I looked, and there was a black horse, and its rider held a scale in his hand. Revelation 6:5

I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures. It said, “A ration of wheat costs a day’s pay, and three rations of barley cost a day’s pay. But do not damage the olive oil or the wine.” Revelation 6:6

When he broke open the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature cry out, “Come forward.” Revelation 6:7

After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind could blow on land or sea or against any tree. Revelation 7:1

Then I saw another angel come up from the East, holding the seal of the living God. He cried out in a loud voice to the four angels who were given power to damage the land and the sea, Revelation 7:2

All the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They prostrated themselves before the throne, worshiped God, Revelation 7:11

All the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They prostrated themselves before the throne, worshiped God, Revelation 7:11

And I saw that the seven angels who stood before God were given seven trumpets. Revelation 8:2

Another angel came and stood at the altar, holding a gold censer. He was given a great quantity of incense to offer, along with the prayers of all the holy ones, on the gold altar that was before the throne. Revelation 8:3

The smoke of the incense along with the prayers of the holy ones went up before God from the hand of the angel. Revelation 8:4

Then the angel took the censer, filled it with burning coals from the altar, and hurled it down to the earth. There were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake. Revelation 8:5

The seven angels who were holding the seven trumpets prepared to blow them. Revelation 8:6

When the first one blew his trumpet, there came hail and fire mixed with blood, which was hurled down to the earth. A third of the land was burned up, along with a third of the trees and all green grass. Revelation 8:7

When the second angel blew his trumpet, something like a large burning mountain was hurled into the sea. A third of the sea turned to blood, Revelation 8:8

When the third angel blew his trumpet, a large star burning like a torch fell from the sky. It fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. Revelation 8:10

When the fourth angel blew his trumpet, a third of the sun, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars were struck, so that a third of them became dark. The day lost its light for a third of the time, as did the night. Revelation 8:12

Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the four horns of the gold altar before God, Revelation 9:13

Telling the sixth angel who held the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the banks of the great river Euphrates.” Revelation 9:14

Telling the sixth angel who held the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the banks of the great river Euphrates.” Revelation 9:14

So the four angels were released, who were prepared for this hour, day, month, and year to kill a third of the human race. Revelation 9:15

Then I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven wrapped in a cloud, with a halo around his head; his face was like the sun and his feet were like pillars of fire. Revelation 10:1

When the seven thunders had spoken, I was about to write it down; but I heard a voice from heaven say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have spoken, but do not write it down.” Revelation 10:4

Then the angel I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven Revelation 10:5

At the time when you hear the seventh angel blow his trumpet, the mysterious plan of God shall be fulfilled, as he promised to his servants the prophets.” Revelation 10:7

Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke to me again and said, “Go, take the scroll that lies open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.” Revelation 10:9

Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke to me again and said, “Go, take the scroll that lies open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.” Revelation 10:9

I took the small scroll from the angel’s hand and swallowed it. In my mouth it was like sweet honey, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned sour. Revelation 10:10

Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet. There were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world now belongs to our Lord and to his Anointed, and he will reign forever and ever.” Revelation 11:15

Its tail swept away a third of the stars in the sky and hurled them down to the earth. Then the dragon stood before the woman about to give birth, to devour her child when she gave birth. Revelation 12:4

Then another angel came from the altar, who was in charge of the fire, and cried out in a loud voice to the one who had the sharp sickle, “Use your sharp sickle and cut the clusters from the earth’s vines, for its grapes are ripe.” Revelation 14:18

So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and cut the earth’s vintage. He threw it into the great wine press of God’s fury. Revelation 14:19

Then I saw in heaven another sign, great and awe-inspiring: seven angels with the seven last plagues, for through them God’s fury is accomplished. Revelation 15:1

And the seven angels with the seven plagues came out of the temple. They were dressed in clean white linen, with a gold sash around their chests. Revelation 15:6

Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say: “You are just, O Holy One, who are and who were, in passing this sentence. Revelation 16:5

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun. It was given the power to burn people with fire. Revelation 16:8

The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, “It is done.” Revelation 16:17

Then one of the seven angels who were holding the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come here. I will show you the judgment on the great harlot who lives near the many waters. Revelation 17:1

Then he carried me away in spirit to a deserted place where I saw a woman seated on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names, with seven heads and ten horns. Revelation 17:3

The angel said to me, “Why are you amazed? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, the beast with the seven heads and the ten horns. Revelation 17:7

It had a massive, high wall, with twelve gates where twelve angels were stationed and on which names were inscribed, the names of the twelve tribes of the Israelites. Revelation 21:12

The one who spoke to me held a gold measuring rod to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. Revelation 21:15

The city was square, its length the same as also its width. He measured the city with the rod and found it fifteen hundred miles in length and width and height. Revelation 21:16
