9The fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. The star was given the key to the shaft of the Abyss.G2532G3991G32G4537G2532G1492G792G4098G1537G3772G1519G1093G2532G846G1325G2807G12G54212When he opened the Abyss, smoke rose from it like the smoke from a gigantic furnace. The sun and sky were darkened by the smoke from the Abyss.G2532G455G12G5421G2532G305G2586G1537G5421G5613G2586G3173G2575G2532G2246G2532G109G4654G1537G2586G54213And out of the smoke locusts came down on the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the earth.G2532G1831G1537G2586G200G1519G1093G2532G846G1325G1849G5613G4651G1093G2192G18494They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.G2532G4483G846G3363G91G3363G91G5528G1093G3761G3956G5515G3761G3956G1186G1508G3441G444G3748G2192G3756G4973G2316G1909G846G33595They were not allowed to kill them but only to torture them for five months. And the agony they suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes.G2532G846G1325G3363G615G3363G615G846G235G2443G928G4002G3376G2532G846G929G5613G929G4651G3752G3817G4446During those days people will seek death but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them.G2532G1722G1565G2250G444G2212G2288G2532G2147G3756G2147G846G2532G1937G599G2532G2288G5343G575G8467The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of gold, and their faces resembled human faces.G2532G3667G200G3664G2462G2090G1519G4171G2532G1909G846G2776G5613G4735G3664G5557G2532G846G4383G5613G4383G4448Their hair was like women's hair, and their teeth were like lions' teeth.G2532G2192G2359G5613G2359G1135G2532G846G3599G2258G5613G30239They had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the thundering of many horses and chariots rushing into battle.G2532G2192G2382G5613G2382G4603G2532G5456G846G4420G5613G5456G716G4183G2462G5143G1519G417110They had tails with stingers, like scorpions, and in their tails they had power to torment people for five months.G2532G2192G3769G3664G4651G2532G2258G2759G1722G846G3769G2532G846G1849G91G444G4002G337611They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon and in Greek is Apollyon (that is, Destroyer).G2532G2192G935G1909G848G32G12G846G3686G1447G3G2532G1722G1673G2192G3686G62312The first woe is past; two other woes are yet to come.G3391G3759G565G2400G2064G1417G3759G2089G3326G502313The sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the four horns of the golden altar that is before God.G2532G1623G32G4537G2532G191G3391G5456G1537G5064G2768G5552G2379G3588G1799G231614It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates."G3004G1623G32G3739G2192G4536G3089G5064G32G3588G1210G1909G3173G4215G216615And the four angels who had been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of the world's people.G2532G5064G32G3089G3588G2090G1519G5610G2532G2250G2532G3376G2532G1763G2443G615G5154G44416The number of the mounted troops was two hundred million. I heard their number.G2532G706G4753G2461G1417G3461G3461G2532G191G706G84617The horses and riders I saw in my vision looked like this: Their breastplates were fiery red, dark blue, and yellow as sulfur. The heads of the horses resembled the heads of lions, and out of their mouths came fire, smoke and sulfur.G2532G3779G1492G2462G1722G3706G2532G2521G1909G846G2192G2382G4447G2532G5191G2532G2306G2532G2776G2462G5613G2776G3023G2532G1537G846G4750G1607G4442G2532G2586G2532G230318A third of the people were killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths.G5259G5130G5140G615G5154G444G615G1537G4442G2532G1537G2586G2532G1537G2303G3588G1607G1537G846G475019The power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails were like snakes, having heads with which they inflict injury.G1063G846G1849G1526G2076G1722G846G4750G2532G1722G846G3769G1063G846G3769G3664G3789G2192G2776G2532G1722G846G9120The rest of the people who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk.G2532G3062G444G3739G615G3756G615G1722G5025G4127G3777G3340G3777G1537G2041G846G5495G3363G4352G3363G4352G1140G2532G1497G5552G2532G693G2532G5470G2532G3035G2532G3585G3739G3777G1410G991G3777G191G3777G404321Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.G2532G3756G3340G1537G846G5408G3777G1537G846G5331G3777G1537G846G4202G3777G1537G846G2809
