Revelation 9:14-21

14one saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the 1four angels who are bound at the 2great river Euphrates.” 15And the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were 3released, so that they would kill a 4third of 5mankind. 16The number of the armies of the horsemen was 6two hundred million; 7I heard the number of them. 17And 8this is how I saw 9in the vision the horses and those who sat on them: the riders had breastplates the color of fire and of hyacinth and of 1011brimstone; and the heads of the horses are like the heads of lions; and 12out of their mouths proceed fire and smoke and 1314brimstone. 18A 15third of 16mankind was killed by these three plagues, by the 17fire and the smoke and the 18brimstone which proceeded out of their mouths. 19For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails are like serpents and have heads, and with them they do harm.

20The rest of 19mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, 20did not repent of 21the works of their hands, so as not to 22worship demons, and 23the idols of gold and of silver and of brass and of stone and of wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk; 21and they 24did not repent of their murders nor of their 25sorceries nor of their 26immorality nor of their thefts.
