Fifth Trumpet: The Locusts from the Bottomless Pit

1 Then the fifth angel sounded: aAnd I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth. To him was given the key to bthe bottomless pit.  
2 And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace. So the asun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit.  
3 Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, aas the scorpions of the earth have power.  
4 They were commanded anot to harm bthe grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have cthe seal of God on their foreheads.  
5 And1 they were not given authority to kill them, abut to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man.  
6 In those days amen will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.  
7 aThe shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. bOn their heads were crowns of something like gold, cand their faces were like the faces of men.  
8 They had hair like women’s hair, and atheir teeth were like lions’ teeth.  
9 And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was alike the sound of chariots with many horses running into battle.  
10 They had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails. Their power was to hurt men five months.
11 And they had as king over them athe angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in Hebrew is1 Abaddon, but in Greek he has the name2 Apollyon.  
12 aOne woe is past. Behold, still two more woes are coming after these things.  

Sixth Trumpet: The Angels from the Euphrates
