WEB

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.

WEB

He opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a burning furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit.

WEB

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

WEB

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 don’t have God’s seal on their foreheads.

WEB

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.

WEB

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.

WEB

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.

WEB

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

WEB

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

WEB

They have tails like those of scorpions, with stingers. In their tails they have power to harm men for five months.

WEB

They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is “Abaddon”, but in Greek, he has the name “Apollyon”.

WEB

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

WEB

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

WEB

saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!”

WEB

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

WEB

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

WEB

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 horses’ heads resembled lions’ heads. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulfur.

WEB

By these three plagues, one third of mankind was killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur, which proceeded out of their mouths.

WEB

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.

WEB

The rest of mankind, who were not killed with these plagues, didn’t repent of the works of their hands, that they wouldn’t worship demons, and the idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood, which can’t see, hear, or walk.

WEB

They didn’t repent of their murders, their sorceries, their sexual immorality, or their thefts.
