Revelation 9
1 Angẹli karùn-ún sì fún ìpè tirẹ̀, mo sì rí, ìràwọ̀ kan bọ́ sílẹ̀ láti ọ̀run wá, a sì fi kọ́kọ́rọ́ ihò ọ̀gbun fún un. (Abyssos g12)
Then the fifth angel blew; and I saw a star that had fallen on the earth from the heavens, and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. (Abyssos g12)
2 Ó sì ṣí ihò ọ̀gbun náà, èéfín sì rú jáde láti inú ihò náà wá, bí èéfín ìléru ńlá, oòrùn àti ojú sánmọ̀ sì ṣókùnkùn nítorí èéfín ihò náà. (Abyssos g12)
He opened the bottomless pit, and from the pit rose a smoke like the smoke of a great furnace. The sun and the air grew dark because of the smoke from the pit. (Abyssos g12)
3 Àwọn eṣú sì jáde ti inú èéfín náà wá sórí ilẹ̀, a sì fi agbára fún wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí agbára àkéekèe ilẹ̀.
Out of the smoke locusts descended on the earth, and they received the same power as that possessed by scorpions.
4 A sì fún wọn pé ki wọn má ṣe pa koríko ilẹ̀ lára tàbí ohun tútù kan, tàbí igikígi kan; bí kò ṣe àwọn ènìyàn tí kò ni èdìdì Ọlọ́run ní iwájú wọn.
They were told not to harm the grass, or any plant, or any tree, but only those who have not the seal of God on their foreheads.
5 A sì pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, kí wọn má ṣe pa wọ́n, ṣùgbọ́n kí a dá wọn ni oró ni oṣù márùn-ún, oró wọn sì dàbí oró àkéekèe, nígbà tí o bá ta ènìyàn.
Yet they were not allowed to kill them, but it was ordered that those men should be tortured for five months. Their torture was like the torture caused by a scorpion when it stings a person.
6 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí ni àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì máa wá ikú, wọn kì yóò sì rí i; wọn yóò sì fẹ́ láti kú, ikú yóò sì sá kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn.
In those days people will seek Death and will not find it; They will long to die, but Death flees from them.
7 Ìrísí àwọn eṣú náà sì dàbí àwọn ẹṣin tí a múra sílẹ̀ fún ogun; àti ní orí wọn ni ohun tí o dàbí àwọn adé wúrà wà, ojú wọn sì dàbí ojú ènìyàn;
In appearance the locusts were like horses equipped for battle. On their heads there were what appeared to be crowns that shone like gold, their faces resembled human faces,
8 wọ́n sì ní irun bí obìnrin, eyín wọn sì dàbí ti kìnnìún.
and they had hair like the hair of a woman, their teeth were like lions’ teeth,
9 Wọ́n sì ní ìgbàyà tí ó dàbí ìgbàyà irin; ìró ìyẹ́ wọn sì dàbí ìró kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin púpọ̀ tí ń súré lọ sí ogun.
and they had what seemed to be iron breastplates, while the noise of their wings was like the noise of chariots drawn by many horses, galloping into battle.
10 Wọ́n sì ni ìrù àti oró bí tí àkéekèe, àti ní ìrù wọn ni agbára wọn wà láti pa ènìyàn lára fún oṣù márùn-ún.
They have tails like scorpions, and stings, and in their tails lies their power to harm people for five months.
11 Wọ́n ní angẹli ọ̀gbun náà bí ọba lórí wọn, orúkọ rẹ̀ ní èdè Heberu ní Abaddoni, àti ni èdè Giriki orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Apollioni (èyí ni Apanirun). (Abyssos g12)
They have as their king the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name, in Hebrew, is ‘Abaddon,’ while, in Greek, his name is ‘Apollyon’ (the Destroyer). (Abyssos g12)
12 Ègbé kan tí kọjá, kíyèsi i, ègbé méjì ń bọ̀ síbẹ̀ lẹ́yìn èyí.
The first Woe has passed; and still there are two Woes to follow!
13 Angẹli kẹfà si fọn ìpè rẹ̀, mo sì gbọ́ ohùn kan láti ibi ìwo mẹ́rin pẹpẹ wúrà wá, tí ń bẹ níwájú Ọlọ́run.
Then the sixth angel blew; and I heard a voice proceeding from the corners of the golden altar that stood before God.
14 Òun wí fún angẹli kẹfà náà tí o ni ìpè náà pé, “Tú àwọn angẹli mẹ́rin náà sílẹ̀ tí a dè lẹ́bàá odò ńlá Eufurate!”
It spoke to the sixth angel – the angel with the trumpet – and said ‘Let loose the four angels that are in chains at the great river Euphrates.’
15 A sì tú àwọn angẹli mẹ́rin náà sílẹ̀, tí a ti pèsè tẹ́lẹ̀ fún wákàtí náà, àti ọjọ́ náà, àti oṣù náà, àti ọdún náà, láti pa ìdámẹ́ta ènìyàn.
Then the four angels, that were held in readiness for that hour and day and month and year, were let loose, to destroy a third of mankind.
16 Iye ogún àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin sì jẹ́ àádọ́ta ọ̀kẹ́ lọ́nà igba, mo sì gbọ́ iye wọn.
The number of the hosts of cavalry was ten thousand times ten thousand, twice told; I heard their number.
17 Báyìí ni mo sì rí àwọn ẹṣin náà ní ojúran, àti àwọn tí o gùn wọ́n, wọ́n ni ìgbàyà aláwọ̀ iná, àti ti jakinti, àti ti sulfuru, orí àwọn ẹṣin náà sì dàbí orí àwọn kìnnìún; àti láti ẹnu wọn ni iná, àti èéfín, àti sulfuru tí ń jáde.
And this is what the horses and their riders appeared to be like in my vision: They had breastplates of fire, blood-red and sulphurous, and the heads of the horses were like lions’ heads, while out of their mouths issue fire, and smoke, and sulfur.
18 Nípa ìyọnu mẹ́ta wọ̀nyí ni a tí pa ìdámẹ́ta ènìyàn, nípa iná, àti nípa èéfín, àti nípa sulfuru tí o ń tí ẹnu wọn jáde.
Through these three curses a third of humanity perished – because of the fire, and the smoke, and the sulfur that issued from their mouths;
19 Nítorí pé agbára àwọn ẹṣin náà ń bẹ ní ẹnu wọn àti ní ìrù wọn: nítorí pé ìrù wọn dàbí ejò, wọn sì ní orí, àwọn wọ̀nyí ni wọn sì fi ń pa ni lára.
for the power of the horses lies in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails are like snakes, with heads, and it is with them that they do harm.
20 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn ìyókù tí a kò sì ti ipa ìyọnu wọ̀nyí pa, kò sì ronúpìwàdà iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn, kí wọn má ṣe sin àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù àti ère wúrà, àti ti fàdákà, àti ti idẹ, àti òkúta, àti ti igi mọ́: àwọn tí kò lè ríran, tàbí kí wọn gbọ́rọ̀, tàbí kí wọn rìn.
But those who were left of humanity, who had not perished through these curses, did not repent and turn away from what their own hands had made; they would not abandon the worship of demons, and of idols made of gold or silver or brass or stone or wood, which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk;
21 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò ronúpìwàdà ìwà ìpànìyàn wọn, tàbí oṣó wọn tàbí àgbèrè wọn, tàbí olè wọn.
and they did not repent of their murders, or their sorceries, or their licentiousness, or their thefts.
