Revelation 9

1 The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky which had fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the abyss was given to him. (Abyssos g12)

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

2 He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and smoke went up out of the shaft, like the smoke from a great furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit. (Abyssos g12)

and he opened the pit of the abyss; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)

3 Then out of the smoke came forth locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

And out of the smoke there came locusts upon the earth; and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

4 They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who do not have God's seal on their foreheads.

And they were commanded not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but the men who have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

5 They were given power not to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion, when it strikes a person.

And they were permitted, not to kill them, but to torment them five months; and the torment inflicted by them was like the torment inflicted by a scorpion, when he stings a man.

6 In those days people will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them.

And in those days men will seek for death, and shall not find it; and they will desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

7 The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like golden crowns, and their faces were like people's faces.

And the shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for battle; and on their heads were, as it were, crowns of gold; and their faces were like the faces of men.

8 They had hair like women's hair, and their teeth were like those of lions.

And they had hair like the hair of women; and their teeth were like the teeth of lions.

9 They had breastplates, like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, or of many horses rushing to war.

And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

10 They have tails like those of scorpions, and stings. In their tails is their power to harm people for five months.

And they had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails; and they had power to hurt men five months.

11 They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is "Avadu," and in Greek, he has the name "Apolon." (Abyssos g12)

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

12 The first woe is past. Look, there are still two woes coming after this.

The first woe is past: behold, there are coming, after this, two woes more.

13 The sixth angel sounded. I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,

And the sixth angel sounded: and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar that is before God,

14 saying to the sixth angel who had one trumpet, "Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Pherath."

saying to the sixth angel, who had the trumpet: Loose the four angels that are bound at the great river Euphrates.

15 The four angels were freed who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year, so that they might kill one third of humanity.

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

16 The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million. I heard the number of them.

And the number of the armies of horsemen was two myriads of myriads: I heard the number of them.

17 Thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those who sat on them, having breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow; and the heads of lions. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulfur.

And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those who sat on them; they had breastplates, fiery, and hyacinthine, and sulphurous: and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

18 By these three plagues were one third of humanity killed: from the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur, which proceeded out of their mouths.

By these three plagues was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and the smoke, and the brimstone that issued out of their mouths.

19 For the power of the horses is in their mouths, and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents, and have heads, and with them they harm.

For their power was in their mouth and in their tails; for their tails were like serpents, and had heads, and with them they do injury.

20 The rest of humanity, who were not killed with these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, that they would not worship demons, and the idols of gold, and of silver, and of bronze, and of stone, and of wood; which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk.

And the rest of men that were not killed by these plagues, repented not of the works of their hands, that they might not worship demons, and idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood, which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk;

21 They did not repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their sexual immorality, nor of their thefts.

and they repented not of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their lewdness, nor of their thefts.
