Revelation 9
1 And the fifth Angel blew the trumpet, and I saw a starre fall from heauen vnto the earth, and to him was giuen the key of the bottomlesse pit. (Abyssos g12)
Og den femte Engel basunede, og jeg saa en Stjerne, som var falden ned fra Himmelen paa Jorden, og Nøglen til Afgrundens Brønd blev given den. (Abyssos g12)
2 And he opened the bottomlesse pit, and there arose the smoke of the pit, as the smoke of a great fornace, and the sunne, and the ayre were darkened by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)
Og den aabnede Afgrundens Brønd, og en Røg steg op af Brønden, lig Røgen af en stor Ovn; og Solen og Luften blev formørket af Røgen fra Brønden. (Abyssos g12)
3 And there came out of the smoke Locustes vpon the earth, and vnto them was giuen power, as the scorpions of the earth haue power.
Og fra Røgen udgik der Græshopper over Jorden, og der blev givet dem Magt, som Jordens Skorpioner have Magt.
4 And it was comanded them, that they should not hurt the grasse of the earth, neither any greene thing, neither any tree: but onely those men which haue not the seale of God in their foreheads.
Og der blev sagt til dem, at de ikke maatte skade Græsset paa Jorden, ej heller noget grønt eller noget Træ, men kun de Mennesker, som ikke have Guds Segl paa deres Pander.
5 And to them was comanded that they should not kill them, but that they should be vexed fiue moneths, and that their paine should be as the paine that commeth of a scorpion, when he hath stung a man.
Og det blev dem givet ikke at dræbe dem, men at pine dem i fem Maaneder; og Pinen, de voldte, var som Pinen af en Skorpion, naar den stikker et Menneske.
6 Therefore in those dayes shall men seeke death, and shall not finde it, and shall desire to die, and death shall flie from them.
Og i de Dage skulle Menneskene søge Døden og ikke finde den, og attraa at dø, og Døden flyr fra dem.
7 And the forme of the locustes was like vnto horses prepared vnto battel, and on their heads were as it were crownes, like vnto golde, and their faces were like the faces of men.
Og Græshoppeskikkelserne lignede Heste, rustede til Krig, og paa deres Hoveder var der som Kroner, der lignede Guld, og deres Ansigter vare som Menneskers Ansigter,
8 And they had heare as the heare of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lyons.
og de havde Haar som Kvinders Haar, og deres Tænder vare som Løvers,
9 And they had habbergions, like to habbergions of yron: and the soud of their wings was like the sound of charets whe many horses runne vnto battel.
og de havde Pansere som Jernpansere; og Lyden af deres Vinger var som Lyd af Stridsvogne, naar mange Heste fare ud til Kamp.
10 And they had tailes like vnto scorpions, and there were stings in their tailes, and their power was to hurt men fiue moneths.
Og de have Haler, som ligne Skorpioners, og Brodde, og i deres Haler ligger deres Magt til at skade Menneskene i fem Maaneder.
11 And they haue a King ouer them, which is the Angel of the bottomlesse pit, whose name in Hebrewe is Abaddon, and in Greeke he is named Apollyon, that is, destroying. (Abyssos g12)
De have Afgrundens Engel til Konge over sig; hans Navn er paa Hebraisk Abaddon, og paa Græsk har han Navnet Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)
12 One woe is past, and beholde, yet two woes come after this.
Det første Ve er til Ende; se, der kommer endnu to Veer derefter.
13 Then the sixt Angel blew the trumpet, and I heard a voyce from the foure hornes of the golden altar, which is before God,
Og den sjette Engel basunede, og jeg hørte en Røst fra de fire Horn paa Guldalteret, som staar for Guds Aasyn,
14 Saying to the sixt Angel, which had the trumpet, Loose the foure Angels, which are bound in the great riuer Euphrates.
sige til den sjette Engel, der havde Basunen: Løs de fire Engle, som ere bundne ved den store Flod Eufrat.
15 And the foure Angels were loosed, which were prepared at an houre, at a day, at a moneth, and at a yeere, to slay the thirde part of men.
Og de fire Engle bleve løste, som til den Time og Dag og Maaned og Aar vare rede til at ihjelslaa Tredjedelen af Menneskene.
16 And the nomber of horsemen of warre were twentie thousand times ten thousand: for I heard the nomber of them.
Og Tallet paa Rytterhærene var to Gange Titusinde Gange Titusinde; jeg hørte deres Tal.
17 And thus I saw the horses in a vision, and them that sate on them, hauing firie habbergions, and of Iacinth, and of brimstone, and the heads of the horses were as the heades of lyons: and out of their mouthes went foorth fire and smoke and brimstone.
Og saaledes saa jeg Hestene i Synet og dem, som sade derpaa, hvilke havde ildrøde og sorteblaa og svovlgule Pansere; og Hestenes Hoveder vare som Løvers Hoveder, og af deres Munde udgik Ild og Røg og Svovl.
18 Of these three was the thirde part of men killed, that is, of the fire, and of the smoke, and of the brimstone, which came out of their mouthes.
Af disse tre Plager, af Ilden og Røgen og Svovlet, som udgik af deres Munde, blev Tredjedelen af Menneskene ihjelslaaet.
19 For their power is in their mouths, and in their tailes: for their tailes were like vnto serpents, and had heades, wherewith they hurt.
Thi Hestenes Magt er i deres Mund og i deres Haler; thi deres Haler ligne Slanger, have Hoveder, og med dem gøre de Skade.
20 And the remnant of the men which were not killed by these plagues, repented not of the works of their handes that they should not worship deuils, and idoles of golde and of siluer, and of brasse, and of stone, and of wood, which neither can see, neither heare nor goe.
Og de øvrige Mennesker, som ikke bleve dræbte i disse Plager, omvendte sig ikke fra deres Hænders Gerninger, saa de lode være at tilbede de onde Aander og Afgudsbillederne af Guld og Sølv og Kobber og Sten og Træ, som hverken kunne se eller høre eller gaa;
21 Also they repented not of their murder, and of their sorcerie, neither of their fornication, nor of their theft.
og de omvendte sig ikke fra deres Myrden eller fra deres Trolddom eller fra deres Utugt eller fra deres Tyveri.
