Revelation 9 — WBMS
9Verse 1And the fifth angel trumped; and I saw, that a star had fallen down from heaven into earth; and the key of the pit of deepness was given to it.Verse 2And it [or he] opened the pit of deepness, and a smoke of the pit went up, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun was darked, and the air, of the smoke of the pit.Verse 3And locusts went out of the smoke of the pit into earth; and power was given to them, as scorpions of the earth have power.Verse 4And it was commanded to them, that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only men, that have not the sign [or the mark] of God in their foreheads.Verse 5And it was given to them, that they should not slay them, but that they should be tormented five months; and the tormenting of them, as the tormenting of a scorpion, when he smiteth a man.Verse 6And in those days men shall seek death, and they shall not find it; and they shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.Verse 7And the likeness of locusts be like horses made ready into battle; and on the heads of them as crowns like gold, and the faces of them as the faces of men.Verse 8And they had hairs, as the hairs of women; and the teeth of them were as the teeth of lions.Verse 9And they had habergeons, as iron habergeons, and the voice of their wings as the voice of chariots of many horses running to battle.Verse 10And they had tails like scorpions, and pricks were in the tails of them; and the might of them was to annoy men five months.Verse 11And they had on them a king, the angel of deepness, to whom the name in Hebrew is Abaddon, but by Greek Apollyon, and by Latin he hath a name Exterminus, that is, Destroyer.Verse 12One woe is passed, and lo! yet come two woes.Verse 13After these things also the sixth angel trumped; and I heard a voice from the four corners of the golden altar, that is before the eyes of God,Verse 14and said to the sixth angel that had a trump, Unbind thou [the] four angels, that be bound in the great flood Euphrates.Verse 15And the four angels were unbound, which were ready into hour, and day, and month, and year, to slay the third part of men.Verse 16And the number of the host of horsemen was twenty thousand times ten thousand. And I heard the number of them.Verse 17And so I saw horses in vision; and they that sat on them had fiery habergeons, and of jacinth, and of brimstone. And the heads of the horses were as [the] heads of lions; and fire, and smoke, and brimstone, cometh forth of the mouth of them.Verse 18Of these three plagues the third part of men was slain, of the fire, and of the smoke, and of the brimstone, that came out of the mouth of them.Verse 19For the power of the horses is in the mouth of them, and in the tails of them; for the tails of them be like to serpents, having heads, and in them they annoy.Verse 20And the other men, that were not slain in these plagues, neither did penance of the works of their hands, that they worshipped not devils, and simulacra of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of tree, which neither may see, neither hear, neither wander;Verse 21and [they] did not penance of their manslayings, neither of their witchcrafts, neither of their fornication, neither of their thefts, were slain.
