< Awiphawng 9 >
1 Khan ceityih a pumhanaak ing uut ce yng hy, cawh khan nakawng dek awh anuk tla law aihchi pynoet ce hu nyng. Cawhkaw aihchi venawh a dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng dung cabi ce pe uhy. (Abyssos )
Then the fifth angel sounded his trumpet. I saw a star from heaven that had fallen to the earth. The star was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit. (Abyssos )
2 Anih ing a dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng dung ce am awng awh, mai ak cak soeih maikhu amyihna maikhu ce hang thoeng law hy. Khawmik ingkaw khawhli boeih ce a dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng awh maikhu ing than sak hy. (Abyssos )
He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and smoke went up out of the shaft like smoke from a huge furnace. The sun and the air turned dark by the smoke pouring out of the shaft. (Abyssos )
3 Cawhkaw maikhu awhkawng khawmdek awh khamkhawkkhqi ce law unawh cekkhqi venawh khawmdek awhkaw cengta-ai amyihna saithainaak ce pehy.
Out of the smoke locusts came on the earth, and they were given power like that of scorpions on the earth.
4 Khawmdek awh sai, thingling ingkaw thingkhqi ama plawci sak aham cekkhqi venawh awipeeknaak awm hlai hy, a talqi awh Khawsa hatnaak amak awmkhqi ce plawci sak aham awi pehy.
They were told not to damage the grass on the earth or any green plant or tree, but only the people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
5 Cekkhqi him thainaak taw am pe nawh hla nga ak khui kyinaak ingkaw thekhanaak peek aham awi pehy. Cawhkaw khuikha huhnaak cetaw cengta-ai ing thlang ak cep awhkaw amyihna tlo hy.
They were not given permission to kill those people, but only to torture them for five months. Their agony would be like the sting of a scorpion when it strikes a person.
6 Cemyihna a awm ak khuiawh thlangkhqi ing thihnaak ce sui hlai voei uh, am hu kawm uh; thih hy hlai voei uh thihnaak ing cekkhqi ce centaak khqi kaw.
In those days people will seek death, but will not find it. They will greatly desire to die, but death will flee from them.
7 Cawhkaw khamkhawkkhqi cetaw qaal tuk aham oepchoeh na ak awm meqangkhqi amyihna awm uhy. A lu awh sui lumyk amyihna ak awm lumyk ce myk qip uhy, ami haaikhqi taw thlanghqing a haai amyihna awm hy.
The locusts looked like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like crowns of gold, and their faces were like human faces.
8 Ami lusamkhqi taw nukhqi a lusam amyihna awm nawh, ami hakhqi taw samthyyn a hakhqi amyihna awm hy.
They had hair like women's hair, and their teeth were like lions' teeth.
9 Thi amyihna ak awm kqangdan bai unawh, ang hla ang hum awi taw qaal tuknaak awh ak dawng meqang khawzah ak awi amyihna awm hy.
They had breastplates like iron breastplates, and the sound of their wings was like the sound made by many chariots and horses running into battle.
10 A ming maikhqi awm nawh cengta-ai amyihna thlang cep hy, ang mai ing hla nga ak khui thlang kyinaak pe thai hy.
They had tails with stingers like scorpions; in their tails they had power to harm people for five months.
11 A dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng dung khuiawh kaw khan ceityih ce a mingmih a sangpahrang na ta uhy, anih ang ming taw Abaddon mingna hy, Greek awi na taw Apollyon mingna hy. (Abyssos )
They had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit. His name in Hebrew was Abaddon, and in Greek he had the name Apollyon. (Abyssos )
12 Lamma awhkaw khaw mapnaak taw khum hawh hy; cehlai khaw mapnaak pakkhih ce a law aham awm hyn hy.
The first woe is past. Look! After this there are still two disasters to come.
13 Ak kquknaak khan ceityih ing uut ce a yng awh, Khawsa haiawh ak awm sui bawkthang awhkaw kii awhkawng awi ce za nyng.
The sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the horns of the golden altar that is present before God.
14 Ce ing uut ak pawm khan ceityih a venawh, “Euphrates long awh pin na ak awm khan ceityih tloek ce hlah hlah,” tina hy.
The voice said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great Euphrates River.”
15 Ve khawnoek, nyn, hla ingkaw kum aham qoe qoe na a pin khan ceityih pupthli tloek ce dek thlang hloep thum khuiawh hloep oet him aham hlah hy.
The four angels who had been prepared for that hour, that day, that month, and that year, were released to kill a third of mankind.
16 Mirang awh ak ngawi cawhkaw qalkap cetaw million zanhih law hy. Cekkhqi izah ami law tice za nyng.
The number of the soldiers on horseback was 200,000,000. I heard their number.
17 Mirangkhqi ingkaw meqang ak khanawh ak ngawi thlangkhqi ce vemyihna hu nyng: Amik kqangdankhqi ce maikqawng amyihna ak hlawk, nukzup na ak awm ingkaw kat amyihna ak engkhqi na awm hy. Mirangkhqi cetaw samthyyn a lukhqi amyihna awm nawh am kha awhkawng maikqawng, maikhu ingkaw kat ce thoeng hy.
This is how I saw the horses in my vision and those who rode on them: Their breastplates were fiery red, dark blue and sulfurous yellow. The heads of the horses resembled the heads of lions, and out of their mouths came fire, smoke, and sulfur.
18 Cekkhqi am khak khui awhkawng ak thoeng nat pakthum maikqawng, maikhu ingkaw kat ing khawmdek awh thlang hloep thum khuiawh hloep oet ce him hy.
A third of the people were killed by these three plagues: the fire, smoke, and sulfur that came out of their mouths.
19 Ce meqangkhqi a saithainaak taw ang mai ingkaw am kha awh awm hy; ang maikhqi ce khqui amyihna a lu awm nawh thlang ngawha ai sak hy.
For the power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails—for their tails were like snakes, and they had heads with which they inflicted wounds on people.
20 Vawhkaw nat ing am him nawh ak ngen tloek ce a mimah a kutsai awh zut hlan bak bak uhy; qaai bawk unawh, sui, ngun qawhum lung thing ing sai uhy- a mik amak dang, awi am za thai nawh amak cet thai myiqawlkhqi bawknaak ce am qoeng bak bak uhy.
The rest of mankind, those who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the deeds they had done, nor did they stop worshiping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood—things that cannot see, hear, or walk.
21 Thlang himnaak, miklet, kutlam toeknaak, nu pa thawlh sainaak ingkaw quuk am qaainaak awh am zut bak bak uhy.
Neither did they repent of their murders, their sorcery, their sexual immorality or their acts of theft.
