Revelation 9:1-12
The Fifth Trumpet
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.
1:
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.
2:
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.
3:
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.
4:
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.
5:
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.
6:
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.
7:
8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as [the teeth] of lions.
8:
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.
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.
10:
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.
11:
12 One woe is past; [and], behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
12:
