9Then the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen to earth from the sky, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit.G2532G3991G32G4537G2532G1492G792G4098G1537G3772G1519G1093G2532G846G1325G2807G12G54212When he opened it, smoke poured out as though from a huge furnace, and the sunlight and air turned dark from the smoke.G2532G455G12G5421G2532G305G2586G1537G5421G5613G2586G3173G2575G2532G2246G2532G109G4654G1537G2586G54213Then locusts came from the smoke and descended on the earth, and they were given power to sting like scorpions.G2532G1831G1537G2586G200G1519G1093G2532G846G1325G1849G5613G4651G1093G2192G18494They were told not to harm the grass or plants or trees, but only the people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.G2532G4483G846G3363G91G3363G91G5528G1093G3761G3956G5515G3761G3956G1186G1508G3441G444G3748G2192G3756G4973G2316G1909G846G33595They were told not to kill them but to torture them for five months with pain like the pain of a scorpion sting.G2532G846G1325G3363G615G3363G615G846G235G2443G928G4002G3376G2532G846G929G5613G929G4651G3752G3817G4446In those days people will seek death but will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them!G2532G1722G1565G2250G444G2212G2288G2532G2147G3756G2147G846G2532G1937G599G2532G2288G5343G575G8467The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. They had what looked like gold crowns on their heads, and their faces looked like human faces.G2532G3667G200G3664G2462G2090G1519G4171G2532G1909G846G2776G5613G4735G3664G5557G2532G846G4383G5613G4383G4448They had hair like women's hair and teeth like the teeth of a lion.G2532G2192G2359G5613G2359G1135G2532G846G3599G2258G5613G30239They wore armor made of iron, and their wings roared like an army of chariots rushing into battle.G2532G2192G2382G5613G2382G4603G2532G5456G846G4420G5613G5456G716G4183G2462G5143G1519G417110They had tails that stung like scorpions, and for five months they had the power to torment people.G2532G2192G3769G3664G4651G2532G2258G2759G1722G846G3769G2532G846G1849G91G444G4002G337611Their king is the angel from the bottomless pit; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon—the Destroyer.G2532G2192G935G1909G848G32G12G846G3686G1447G3G2532G1722G1673G2192G3686G62312The first terror is past, but look, two more terrors are coming!G3391G3759G565G2400G2064G1417G3759G2089G3326G5023
The Sixth Trumpet Brings the Second Terror
13Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet, and I heard a voice speaking from the four horns of the gold altar that stands in the presence of God.G2532G1623G32G4537G2532G191G3391G5456G1537G5064G2768G5552G2379G3588G1799G231614And the voice said to the sixth angel who held the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great Euphrates River."G3004G1623G32G3739G2192G4536G3089G5064G32G3588G1210G1909G3173G4215G216615Then the four angels who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year were turned loose to kill one-third of all the people on earth.G2532G5064G32G3089G3588G2090G1519G5610G2532G2250G2532G3376G2532G1763G2443G615G5154G44416I heard the size of their army, which was 200 million mounted troops.G2532G706G4753G2461G1417G3461G3461G2532G191G706G84617And in my vision, I saw the horses and the riders sitting on them. The riders wore armor that was fiery red and dark blue and yellow. The horses had heads like lions, and fire and smoke and burning sulfur billowed from their mouths.G2532G3779G1492G2462G1722G3706G2532G2521G1909G846G2192G2382G4447G2532G5191G2532G2306G2532G2776G2462G5613G2776G3023G2532G1537G846G4750G1607G4442G2532G2586G2532G230318One-third of all the people on earth were killed by these three plagues—by the fire and smoke and burning sulfur that came from the mouths of the horses.G5259G5130G5140G615G5154G444G615G1537G4442G2532G1537G2586G2532G1537G2303G3588G1607G1537G846G475019Their power was in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails had heads like snakes, with the power to injure people.G1063G846G1849G1526G2076G1722G846G4750G2532G1722G846G3769G1063G846G3769G3664G3789G2192G2776G2532G1722G846G9120But the people who did not die in these plagues still refused to repent of their evil deeds and turn to God. They continued to worship demons and idols made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood—idols that can neither see nor hear nor walk!G2532G3062G444G3739G615G3756G615G1722G5025G4127G3777G3340G3777G1537G2041G846G5495G3363G4352G3363G4352G1140G2532G1497G5552G2532G693G2532G5470G2532G3035G2532G3585G3739G3777G1410G991G3777G191G3777G404321And they did not repent of their murders or their witchcraft or their sexual immorality or their thefts.G2532G3756G3340G1537G846G5408G3777G1537G846G5331G3777G1537G846G4202G3777G1537G846G2809
