< Revelation 9 >
1 And at the sounding of the fifth angel I saw a star falling from heaven to the earth: and there was given to him the key of the great deep. (Abyssos )
Καὶ ὁ πέμπτος ἄγγελος ἐσάλπισεν, καὶ εἶδον ἀστέρα ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ πεπτωκότα εἰς τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ἡ κλεὶς τοῦ φρέατος τῆς ἀβύσσου, (Abyssos )
2 And he made the great deep open and a smoke went up from it, like the smoke of a great oven; and the sun and the air were made dark because of the smoke. (Abyssos )
καὶ ἤνοιξεν τὸ φρέαρ τῆς ἀβύσσου· καὶ ἀνέβη καπνὸς ἐκ τοῦ φρέατος ὡς καπνὸς καμίνου (μεγάλης, *NK(o)*) καὶ (ἐσκοτώθη *N(k)O*) ὁ ἥλιος καὶ ὁ ἀὴρ ἐκ τοῦ καπνοῦ τοῦ φρέατος. (Abyssos )
3 And from the smoke locusts came out on the earth; and power was given them, like the power of scorpions.
καὶ ἐκ τοῦ καπνοῦ ἐξῆλθον ἀκρίδες εἰς τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἐδόθη αὐταῖς ἐξουσία, ὡς ἔχουσιν ἐξουσίαν οἱ σκορπίοι τῆς γῆς.
4 And they were ordered to do no damage to the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only to such men as have not the mark of God on their brows.
καὶ ἐρρέθη αὐταῖς ἵνα μὴ (ἀδικήσουσιν *N(k)O*) τὸν χόρτον τῆς γῆς οὐδὲ πᾶν χλωρὸν οὐδὲ πᾶν δένδρον, εἰ μὴ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους (μόνους *k*) οἵτινες οὐκ ἔχουσιν τὴν σφραγῖδα τοῦ θεοῦ ἐπὶ τῶν μετώπων (αὐτῶν. *k*)
5 And orders were given them not to put them to death, but to give them great pain for five months: and their pain was as the pain from the wound of a scorpion.
καὶ ἐδόθη (αὐτοῖς *N(k)O*) ἵνα μὴ ἀποκτείνωσιν αὐτούς, ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα (βασανισθήσονται *N(k)O*) μῆνας πέντε, καὶ ὁ βασανισμὸς αὐτῶν ὡς βασανισμὸς σκορπίου ὅταν παίσῃ ἄνθρωπον.
6 And in those days men will be hoping for death, and it will not come to them; and they will have a great desire for death, and death will go in flight from them.
Καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ζητήσουσιν οἱ ἄνθρωποι τὸν θάνατον καὶ οὐ μὴ εὑρήσουσιν αὐτόν· καὶ ἐπιθυμήσουσιν ἀποθανεῖν, καὶ (φεύγει *N(k)O*) ὁ θάνατος ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν.
7 And the forms of the locusts were like horses made ready for war; and on their heads they had crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
καὶ τὰ ὁμοιώματα τῶν ἀκρίδων ὅμοια ἵπποις ἡτοιμασμένοις εἰς πόλεμον, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν ὡς στέφανοι ὅμοιοι (χρυσῷ, *NK(o)*) καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ὡς πρόσωπα ἀνθρώπων.
8 And they had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
καὶ εἶχον τρίχας ὡς τρίχας γυναικῶν, καὶ οἱ ὀδόντες αὐτῶν ὡς λεόντων ἦσαν.
9 And they had breastplates like iron, and the sound of their wings was as the sound of carriages, like an army of horses rushing to the fight.
καὶ εἶχον θώρακας ὡς θώρακας σιδηροῦς, καὶ ἡ φωνὴ τῶν πτερύγων αὐτῶν ὡς φωνὴ ἁρμάτων ἵππων πολλῶν τρεχόντων εἰς πόλεμον.
10 And they have pointed tails like scorpions; and in their tails is their power to give men wounds for five months.
καὶ ἔχουσιν οὐρὰς ὁμοίας σκορπίοις καὶ κέντρα (ἦν, *k*) καὶ ἐν ταῖς οὐραῖς αὐτῶν (καὶ *k*) ἡ (ἐξουσία *NK(o)*) (ἔχουσιν *O*) (αὐτῶν *NK(O)*) ἀδικῆσαι τοὺς ἀνθρώπους μῆνας πέντε.
11 They have over them as king the angel of the great deep: his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek language Apollyon. (Abyssos )
(καὶ *k*) (ἔχουσιν *NK(o)*) ἐπ᾽ αὐτῶν βασιλέα τὸν ἄγγελον τῆς ἀβύσσου· ὄνομα αὐτῷ Ἑβραϊστὶ Ἀβαδδών, (καὶ *NK(o)*) ἐν τῇ Ἑλληνικῇ ὄνομα ἔχει Ἀπολλύων. (Abyssos )
12 The first Trouble is past: see, there are still two Troubles to come.
ἡ οὐαὶ ἡ μία ἀπῆλθεν· ἰδοὺ (ἔρχεται *N(k)O*) ἔτι δύο οὐαὶ μετὰ ταῦτα.
13 And at the sounding of the sixth angel a voice came to my ears from the horns of the gold altar which is before God,
Καὶ ὁ ἕκτος ἄγγελος ἐσάλπισεν, καὶ ἤκουσα φωνὴν μίαν ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων κεράτων τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τοῦ χρυσοῦ τοῦ ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ
14 Saying to the sixth angel who had the horn, Make free the four angels who are chained at the great river Euphrates.
(λέγοντα *N(k)O*) τῷ ἕκτῳ ἀγγέλῳ (ὁ ἔχων *N(k)O*) τὴν σάλπιγγα· λῦσον τοὺς τέσσαρας ἀγγέλους τοὺς δεδεμένους ἐπὶ τῷ ποταμῷ τῷ μεγάλῳ Εὐφράτῃ.
15 And the four angels were made free, who were ready for the hour and day and month and year, that they might put to death a third part of men.
καὶ ἐλύθησαν οἱ τέσσαρες ἄγγελοι οἱ ἡτοιμασμένοι εἰς τὴν ὥραν καὶ (εἰς τὴν *o*) ἡμέραν καὶ μῆνα καὶ ἐνιαυτὸν ἵνα ἀποκτείνωσιν τὸ τρίτον τῶν ἀνθρώπων.
16 And the number of the armies of the horsemen was twice ten thousand times ten thousand: the number of them came to my ears.
καὶ ὁ ἀριθμὸς τῶν στρατευμάτων τοῦ (ἱππικοῦ *NK(o)*) (δισμυριάδες δισμυριάδες *N(k)O*) μυριάδων· (καὶ *k*) ἤκουσα τὸν ἀριθμὸν αὐτῶν.
17 And so I saw the horses in the vision, and those who were seated on them, having breastplates of fire and glass and of burning stone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths came fire and smoke and a smell of burning.
Καὶ οὕτως εἶδον τοὺς ἵππους ἐν τῇ ὁράσει καὶ τοὺς καθημένους ἐπ᾽ αὐτῶν ἔχοντας θώρακας πυρίνους καὶ ὑακινθίνους καὶ θειώδεις. καὶ αἱ κεφαλαὶ τῶν ἵππων ὡς κεφαλαὶ λεόντων, καὶ ἐκ τῶν στομάτων αὐτῶν ἐκπορεύεται πῦρ καὶ καπνὸς καὶ θεῖον.
18 By these evils a third part of men was put to death, by the fire, and the smoke, and the burning smell which came out of their mouths.
(ἀπὸ *N(k)O*) τῶν τριῶν (πληγῶν *NO*) τούτων ἀπεκτάνθησαν τὸ τρίτον τῶν ἀνθρώπων, (ἐκ *NK(o)*) τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ (ἐκ *k*) τοῦ καπνοῦ καὶ (ἐκ *k*) τοῦ θείου τοῦ ἐκπορευομένου ἐκ τῶν στομάτων αὐτῶν.
19 For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails: because their tails are like snakes, and have heads, and with them they give wounds.
(ἡ *N(k)O*) γὰρ (ἐξουσία τῶν *N(k)O*) (ἵππων *NO*) ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν (ἐστιν *N(k)O*) καὶ ἐν ταῖς οὐραῖς αὐτῶν. αἱ γὰρ οὐραὶ αὐτῶν ὅμοιαι (ὄφεσιν *NK(o)*) ἔχουσαι κεφαλὰς καὶ ἐν αὐταῖς ἀδικοῦσιν.
20 And the rest of the people, who were not put to death by these evils, were not turned from the works of their hands, but went on giving worship to evil spirits, and images of gold and silver and brass and stone and wood which have no power of seeing or hearing or walking:
καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, οἳ οὐκ ἀπεκτάνθησαν ἐν ταῖς πληγαῖς ταύταις, (οὐδὲ *N(k)(o)*) μετενόησαν ἐκ τῶν ἔργων τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν, ἵνα μὴ (προσκυνήσουσιν *N(k)O*) τὰ δαιμόνια καὶ τὰ εἴδωλα τὰ χρυσᾶ καὶ τὰ ἀργυρᾶ καὶ τὰ χαλκᾶ καὶ τὰ λίθινα καὶ τὰ ξύλινα, ἃ οὔτε βλέπειν (δύνανται *N(k)O*) οὔτε ἀκούειν οὔτε περιπατεῖν,
21 And they had no regret for putting men to death, or for their use of secret arts, or for the evil desires of the flesh, or for taking the property of others.
καὶ οὐ μετενόησαν ἐκ τῶν φόνων αὐτῶν οὔτε ἐκ τῶν (φαρμάκων *N(k)O*) αὐτῶν οὔτε ἐκ τῆς πορνείας αὐτῶν οὔτε ἐκ τῶν κλεμμάτων αὐτῶν.
