1 |
And
the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star
fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless
pit. |
2 |
And
he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the
smoke of a great
furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the
pit. |
3 |
And
there came out of the smoke locusts
upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth
have power. |
4 |
And
it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass
of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men
which have not the seal
of God in their foreheads. |
5 |
And
to them it was given that they should not kill
them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as
the torment of a scorpion,
when he striketh a man. |
6 |
And
in those days shall men seek death,
and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
|
7 |
And
the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses
prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns
like gold, and their faces
were as the faces of men. |
8 |
And
they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
|
9 |
And
they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of
their wings
was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. |
10 |
And
they had tails like
unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to
hurt men five months.
|
11 |
And
they had a king over
them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue
is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. |
12 |
One
woe is past; and,
behold, there come two woes more hereafter. |
13 |
And
the sixth angel
sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is
before God, |
14 |
Saying
to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four
angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. |
15 |
And
the four angels were loosed,
which were prepared
for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part
of men. |
16 |
And
the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and
I heard the number
of them. |
17 |
And
thus I saw the horses
in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of
jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions;
and out of their mouths
issued fire and smoke and brimstone. |
18 |
By
these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke,
and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. |
19 |
For
their power is in their mouth, and in their tails:
for their tails were like unto serpents,
and had heads, and with them they do hurt. |
20 |
And
the rest of the
men which were not killed by these plagues yet
repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils,
and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither
can see, nor hear, nor walk: |
21 |
Neither
repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication,
nor of their thefts. |
