Revelation 16:3

The second and third bowls (Revelation 16:3-4) share the imagery of the plagues described in Exodus 7:20-21. The content of the second bowl is like the content of the third trumpet (Revelation 8:10-11). The first bowl was poured out onto the earth; the second bowl is poured out into the sea; and it became like (hôs - as or like) the blood of a dead man, and every soul of life died in the sea.
