Thupualakna 9

1 Vantungmi a nga na in a tum zawkciang in, vangtung pan in aksi khat a taksuk ka mu hi: taciang ama sia mong nei ngawl dum hon na tawtang pia hi. (Abyssos g12)

And the fifth angel sounded; and I saw a star, which fell from heaven upon the earth. And there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss. (Abyssos g12)

2 Mong nei ngawl dum sia a hon ciang in; mong nei ngawl dum sung pan in meikhu pusuak a, meikhuk pan a pusuak meikhu in, ni le van hawmpui zong zingcipsak hi. (Abyssos g12)

And he opened the pit of the abyss; and smoke issued from the pit, like the smoke of a furnace that is in blast; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)

3 Meikhu sung pan in leitung ah khaumaw tam mama pusuak a: taciang amate tung ah vangletna pia hi, leitung ah aikam te i vangletna taw kibang hi.

And out of the smoke, came locusts upon the earth: and power was given them, like that which scorpions have on the earth.

4 Tua te sia leitung ah lopa le thingkung a hing te theampo susia ngawl tu le, amate i talki ah Pathian i ceptena a nei ngawl mihing te bek susia tu in thupia hi.

And it was commanded them, that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, nor any herb, nor any tree; but only the persons, who had not the seal of God upon their foreheads.

5 Mihing te tha nga sung vawtsia tu in hunpia hinapi, a thalup tu oai ngawl hi: tua khaumaw te i vawtsiatna sia aikam i mihing a tuk bang in natu hi.

And it was given them, that they should not kill them, but should torment them five months: and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion, when it striketh a person.

6 Tua hun hong thet ciang in mihing te in thina zong tu uh ahihang, a mu batu uh hi; a thi nop mama uh hang, thina sia amate kung pan taikhia tu hi.

And in those days, men will desire death, and will not find it; and they will long to die, and death will fly from them.

7 Khaumaw te sia ngalsim tu a kithoai siphu te bang hi a; kumpi lukhu taw a kibang zong amate lutung ah om hi, amate i maitang te zong mihing maitang taw kibang hi.

And the appearance of the locusts was this; they were like the appearance of horses prepared for battle; and on their heads, was, as it were a coronet, resembling gold; and their faces were like the faces of men.

8 A sam te zong nupi te sam bang hi a, a ha te zong tawpi ha taw kibang hi.

And they had hair, like the hair of women: and their teeth were like those of lions.

9 A awmdal te zong, thik awmdal bang hi a; a thazap awnging zong ngalsim tu a tai siphu leang tampi aw nging taw kibang hi.

And they had breastplates, like breastplates of iron: and the sound of their wings, was like the sound of the chariots of many horses rushing into battle.

10 Amei te zong aikam te i mei bang hi a, a mei uh ah ngu nei hi: mihing te tha nga sung ngimpiak theina vangletna nei hi.

And they had tails like those of scorpions, and stings; and with their tails they had the power of hurting men five months.

11 Amate zong kumpi nei uh a, tasia sia mong nei ngawl dum sung a om vantungmi a hihi, a min sia Hebrew kam in Abaddon hi a, Greek kam in Apollyon a hihi. (Abyssos g12)

And they had a king over them, the angel of the abyss; and his name, in Hebrew, is Abaddon; and in Greek, his name is Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)

12 Ngimna lianpi khat bo a; en in, hisia zawkciang in ngimna a ni na hongpai thua lai tu hi.

One woe is past; lo, there come yet two woes after them.

13 Vantungmi a luk na in a tum zawkciang in, Pathian mai a om kham biaktau i kii li te pan in aw khat ka za hi,

And the sixth angel sounded; and I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which was before God,

14 A awnging in lemle a nei vantungmi a luk na tung ah, nguntui lian mama Eupharates sung ah a ki hencip vantungmi li te tha in, ci hi.

that said to the sixth angel having a trumpet: Loose the four angels that are bound at the great river Euphrates.

15 Taciangin mihing khenthum sua khenkhat that tu in nai khat, ni khat, tha khat le khumkhat atu in a kingingkhol vantungmi li te tha hi.

And the four angels were loosed; who are prepared, for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, to slay the third part of men.

16 Siphu a to ngalkap te sia awn zani hi, ci a sim ka za hi.

And the number of the warrior horsemen was two myriads of myriads: and I heard their number.

17 Mangmuna ah siphu te ka mu a, tua siphu tung ah a to te in mei, jacinth le kan taw a ki vawt awmdal nei hi: taciang siphu te i lu te sia tawpi lu taw kibang a; amate kam sung pan in mei, meikhu le kan te pusuak hi.

And while I looked on the horses in the vision, and on them who sat on them I saw that the breastplates were of fire, and of jacinth, and of sulphur. And the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions; and from their mouths issued fire, and smoke, and sulphur.

18 Amate kam sung pan a pusuak mei, meikhu le kan, hite thum in mihing khenthum sua khenkhat te that siat hi.

And by these three plagues, a third part of the men were slain; namely, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the sulphur, which issued from their mouths.

19 Amate i vangletna sia a kam le a mei uh ah om hi: banghangziam cile amate i mei te sia ngul mei taw kibang a, taciang lu zong nei uh hi, tua a lu te taw in mihing te ngimpia hi.

For the power of the horses was in; their mouth, and in their tails; for their tails were like serpents, having heads to strike with.

20 Hi thina pan a suakta mihing te in doaimangpa a biakna uh ahizong, bangma mu thei ngawl, za thei ngawl le lam a pai thei ngawl, kham, ngun, tau ngo, suangtum le thing taw amate i khut taw a vawttawm milim te biak na uh mun pan zong a kisik nuam tuan bua uh hi:

And the residue of men who were not slain by these plagues, repented not of the works of their hands, so as not to worship demons, and idols of gold, and of silver, and brass, and stone, and wood, which cannot see, nor hear.

21 Taciang tualthat, ngual bum, paktat mawna le nguktak na pan zong a kisik nuam tuan bua uh hi.

And they repented not of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their whoredom, nor of their thefts.
