< Revelation 9 >
1 Then the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from heaven to earth, and it was given the key to the pit of the Abyss. (Abyssos )
And the fifth angel sounded [his] trumpet, and I saw a star out of heaven having fallen to the earth, and was given to it the key of the pit of the abyss, (Abyssos )
2 The star opened the pit of the Abyss, and smoke rose out of it like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke from the pit. (Abyssos )
And he opened the pit of the abyss; and went up smoke out of the pit like [the] smoke of a furnace (great, *NK(o)*) and (was darkened *N(k)O*) the sun and the air by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos )
3 And out of the smoke, locusts descended on the earth, and they were given power like that of the scorpions of the earth.
And out of the smoke came forth locusts unto the earth, and was given to them power, like have power the scorpions of the earth.
4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
And it was said to them that not (they will harm *N(k)O*) the grass of the earth nor any green thing nor any tree, only except the men (only *k*) who not having the seal of God on the foreheads (of them. *k*)
5 The locusts were not given power to kill them, but only to torment them for five months, and their torment was like the stinging of a scorpion.
And it was granted (to them *N(k)O*) that not they may kill them, but that (they will torment [them] *N(k)O*) months five, And the torment of them [was] like torment of a scorpion when it may strike a man.
6 In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, but death will escape them.
And in the days those will seek men death and certainly no more will find it; and they will long to die, and (he flees *N(k)O*) death from them.
7 And the locusts looked like horses prepared for battle, with something like crowns of gold on their heads, and faces like the faces of men.
And the appearance of the locusts [was] like as horses prepared for battle, and upon the heads of them [were something] like crowns like (as gold, *NK(o)*) and the faces of them like [the] faces of men.
8 They had hair like that of women, and teeth like those of lions.
And they had hair like hair of women, and the teeth of them like [those] of lions were.
9 They also had thoraxes like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the roar of many horses and chariots rushing into battle.
And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of the wings of them [was] as [the] sound of chariots of horses many rushing into battle.
10 They had tails with stingers like scorpions, which had the power to injure people for five months.
And they have tails like as scorpions and stingers (it was *k*) and in the tails of them (and *k*) [is] the (power *NK(o)*) (they have *O*) (of them *NK(O)*) to injure men for months five.
11 They were ruled by a king, the angel of the Abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek it is Apollyon. (Abyssos )
(and *k*) (They have *NK(o)*) over them a king angel of the abyss; [The] name of Him in Hebrew [is] Abaddon, (and *NK(o)*) in the Greek [the] name he has Apollyon. (Abyssos )
12 The first woe has passed. Behold, two woes are still to follow.
Woe the first has passed; Behold (are coming *N(k)O*) still two woes after these things.
13 Then the sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God
And the sixth angel sounded [his] trumpet, and I heard voice one from the four horns of the altar golden before God
14 saying to the sixth angel with the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”
(saying *N(k)O*) to the sixth angel (the [one] having *N(k)O*) the trumpet; do release the four angels those bound at the river great Euphrates.
15 So the four angels who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.
And were released the four angels who prepared for the hour and (for the *o*) day and month and year so that they may kill a third of mankind.
16 And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.
And the number of the armies of the (cavalry [was] *NK(o)*) (twice ten thousand twice ten thousand *N(k)O*) ten thousands; (and *k*) I heard the number of them.
17 Now the horses and riders in my vision looked like this: The riders had breastplates the colors of fire, sapphire, and sulfur. The heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceeded fire, smoke, and sulfur.
And thus I saw the horses in the vision and those sitting on them having breastplates fiery and hyacinthine and brimstone. And the heads of the horses [were] like heads of lions, and out of the mouths of them proceed fire and smoke and brimstone.
18 A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke, and sulfur that proceeded from their mouths.
(by *N(k)O*) three (plagues *NO*) these was killed a third of mankind, (by *NK(o)*) the fire and (from *k*) the smoke and (from *k*) the brimstone which is proceeding out of the mouths of them.
19 For the power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; indeed, their tails were like snakes, having heads with which to inflict harm.
(the *N(k)O*) for (power of the *N(k)O*) (horses *NO*) in the mouths of them (are *N(k)O*) and in the tails of them. the for tails of them [are] like (as serpents *NK(o)*) having heads and with them they injure.
20 Now the rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the works of their hands. They did not stop worshiping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood, which cannot see or hear or walk.
And the rest of the men who not were killed by plagues these (not even *N(k)(o)*) repented of the works of the hands of them, so that not (they will worship *N(k)O*) the demons and the idols golden and silver and bronze and stone and wooden, which neither to see (are able *N(k)O*) nor to hear nor to walk,
21 Furthermore, they did not repent of their murder, sorcery, sexual immorality, and theft.
And not they repented of the murders of them nor of the (sorceries *N(k)O*) of them nor of the sexual immorality of them nor of the thefts of them.
