Revelation 9:2-10
2And it openedG455 the pitG5421 of the abyssG12; and there wentG305 up smokeG2586 out of the pitG5421 as [the] smokeG2586 of a greatG3173 furnaceG2575; and the sunG2246 and the airG109 were darkenedG4656 with the smokeG2586 of the pitG5421.
3And out of the smokeG2586 cameG1831 forthG1831 locustsG200 on the earthG1093, and powerG1849 was givenG1325 to them as the scorpionsG4651 of the earthG1093 have powerG1849;
4and it was said to them, that they should not injureG91 the grassG5528 of the earthG1093, nor any greenG5515 thing, nor any treeG1186, but the menG444 who have not the sealG4973 of 1GodG2316 on their foreheadsG3359:
5and it was givenG1325 to them that they should not killG615 them, but that they should be tormentedG928 fiveG4002 monthsG3376; and their tormentG929 [was] as [the] tormentG929 of a scorpionG4651 whenG3752 it strikes a manG444.
6And in those daysG2250 shall menG444 seekG2212 deathG2288, and shall in no way findG2147 it; and shall desireG1937 to dieG599, and deathG2288 fleesG5343 from them.
7And the likenesses of the locustsG200 [were] likeG5613 to horsesG2462 preparedG2090 for warG4171; and upon their headsG2776 as crownsG4735 like goldG5557, and their facesG4383 as facesG4383 of menG444;
8and they had hairG2359 as women's hairG2359, and their teethG3599 wereG1510 as of lionsG3023,
9and they had breastplatesG2382 as breastplatesG2382 of ironG4603, and the soundG5456 of their wingsG4420 [was] as the soundG5456 of chariotsG716 of manyG4183 horsesG2462 runningG5143 to warG4171;
10and they have tailsG3769 like scorpionsG4651, and stingsG2759; and their powerG1849 [was] in their tailsG3769 to hurt menG444 fiveG4002 monthsG3376.
