And the fifth
angel
sounded
, and
I saw
a star
fall
from
heaven
unto
the earth
: and
to him
was given
the key
of the bottomless
pit
.
And he opened
the bottomless
pit
; and
there arose
a smoke
out of
the pit
, as
the smoke
of a great
furnace
; and
the sun
and
the air
were darkened
by reason of
the smoke
of the pit
.
And there came
out of
the smoke
locusts
upon
the earth
: and
unto them
was given
power
, as
the scorpions
of the earth
have
power
.
And it was commanded
them
that
they should
not
hurt
the grass
of the earth
, neither
any
green thing
, neither
any
tree
; but
only
those men
which
have
not
the seal
of God
in
their
foreheads
.
And to them
it was given
that
they should
not
kill
them
, but
that
they should be tormented
five
months
: and
their
torment
was as
the torment
of a scorpion
, when
he striketh
a man
.
And in
those
days
shall men
seek
death
, and
shall
not
find
it
; and
shall desire
to die
, and
death
shall flee
from
them
.
And the shapes
of the locusts
were like
unto horses
prepared
unto
battle
; and
on
their
heads
were as it were
crowns
like
gold
, and
their
faces
were as
the faces
of men
.
And they had
hair
as
the hair
of women
, and
their
teeth
were
as
the teeth of lions
.
And they had
breastplates
, as it were
breastplates
of iron
; and
the sound
of their
wings
was as
the sound
of chariots
of many
horses
running
to
battle
.
And they had
tails
like
unto scorpions
, and
there were
stings
in
their
tails
: and
their
power
was to hurt
men
five
months
.
And they had
a king
over
them
, which is the angel
of the bottomless pit
, whose
name
in the Hebrew tongue
is Abaddon
, but
in
the Greek tongue
hath
his name
Apollyon
.
One woe
is past
; and , behold
, there come
two
woes
more
hereafter
.
And the sixth
angel
sounded
, and
I heard
a
voice
from
the four
horns
of the golden
altar
which
is before
God
,
Saying to the sixth
angel
which
had
the trumpet
, Loose
the four
angels
which
are bound
in
the great
river
Euphrates
.
And the four
angels
were loosed
, which
were prepared
for
an hour
, and
a day
, and
a month
, and
a year
, for to
slay
the third part
of men
.
And the number
of the army
of the horsemen
were two hundred
thousand
thousand
: and
I heard
the number
of them
.
And thus
I saw
the horses
in
the vision
, and
them that sat
on
them
, having
breastplates
of fire
, and
of jacinth
, and
brimstone
: and
the heads
of the horses
were as
the heads
of lions
; and
out of
their
mouths
issued
fire
and
smoke
and
brimstone
.
By these
three
was
the third part
of men
killed
, by
the fire
, and
by
the smoke
, and
by
the brimstone
, which
issued
out of
their
mouths
.
For their
power
is
in
their
mouth
, and
in
their
tails
: for
their
tails
were like
unto serpents
, and had
heads
, and
with
them
they do hurt
.
And the rest
of the men
which
were
not
killed
by
these
plagues
yet
repented
not
of
the works
of their
hands
, that
they should
not
worship
devils
, and
idols
of gold
, and
silver
, and
brass
, and
stone
, and
of wood
: which
neither
can
see
, nor
hear
, nor
walk
:
Neither repented they
of
their
murders
, nor
of
their
sorceries
, nor
of
their
fornication
, nor
of
their
thefts
.
