(Next verses) "After these things I saw four angels at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree. Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice, 'Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” (7:1-3) …"And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, with an eternal Gospel (good news) to tell to the inhabitants of the earth.." (14:6)
