Revelation 9
9:1And the fifth angel trumped; and I saw a star falling from out of the heaven unto the earth; and was given to him the key of the well of the abyss.
9:2And he opened the well of the abyss, and ascended smoke from out of the well, as smoke of a furnace burning. And the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the well.
9:3And out of the smoke came forth locusts unto the earth; and authority was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have authority.
9:4And it was said to them that they should not injure the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree; except for the men only, the ones who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads.
9:5And was given to them that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months; and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, whenever it should smite a man.
9:6And in those days men shall seek death, and in no way shall they find it; and they shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
9:7And the representations of the locusts were likened to horses being prepared for war; and upon their heads as golden crowns, and their faces as faces of men.
9:8And they had hair as hair of women, and their teeth were as lions.
9:9And they had chest plates as chest plates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of many chariots of horses running to war.
9:10And they have tails likened to scorpions, and stings, and in their tails having authority to injure men five months.
9:11They have a king over them -- the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon.
9:12The one woe went forth, behold, comes still two woes after these.
9:13And the sixth angel trumped; and I heard one voice from the four horns of the golden altar, of the one before God,
9:14saying to the sixth angel, the one having the trumpet, Loose the four angels being bound at the great river Euphrates!
9:15And the four angels were loosened, the ones being prepared for the hour, and day, and month, and year, that they should kill the third of men.
9:16And the number of the military of the horses -- myriads of myriads; and I heard their number.
9:17And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and the ones sitting down upon them, having chest plates of fiery color, and of blue, and sulphurous; and the heads of the horses were as heads of lions, and out of their mouths went forth fire, and smoke, and sulphur.
9:18From these three plagues were killed the third of men, by the fire, and by the smoke, and of the sulphur going forth out of their mouths.
9:19For the authority of the horses is in their mouth and in their tails; for their tails are likened to serpents, having heads; and by them they injure.
9:20And the rest of the men who were not killed by these calamities repented not from the works of their hands, that they should not do obeisance to the demons, and the idols -- the golden, and the silver, and the brass, and the stones, and the wooden, which neither are able to see, nor to hear, nor to walk.
9:21And they repented not of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their harlotry, nor of their thefts.
