RE-9:1  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.

RE-9:2  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.

RE-9:3  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.

RE-9:4  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.

RE-9:5  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.

RE-9:6  And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not

find it; and

shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

RE-9:7  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.

RE-9:8  And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth

were as [the

teeth] of lions.

RE-9:9  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.

RE-9:10  And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were

stings in their

tails: and their power [was] to hurt men five months.

RE-9:11  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.

RE-9:12  One woe is past; [and], behold, there come two woes

more hereafter.

RE-9:13  And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from

the four horns

of the golden altar which is before God,

RE-9:14  Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose

the four angels

which are bound in the great river Euphrates.

RE-9:15  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.

RE-9:16  And the number of the army of the horsemen [were] two

hundred thousand

thousand: and I heard the number of them.

RE-9:17  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.

RE-9:18  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.

RE-9:19  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.

RE-9:20  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:

RE-9:21  Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their

sorceries, nor of

their fornication, nor of their thefts.
