Revelation 9:12-21

12 1The firstG1520 woeG3759 has passedG565; beholdG2400, twoG1417 woesG3759 are stillG2089 comingG2064 afterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778.

13ThenG2532 the sixthG1623 angelG32 soundedG4537, and I heardG191 2a voiceG5456 from the 3fourG5064 4hornsG2768 of the 5goldenG5552 altarG2379 which is beforeG1799 GodG2316, 14sayingG3004 to the sixthG1623 angelG32 who hadG2192 the trumpetG4536, “ReleaseG3089 the 6fourG5064 angelsG32 who are boundG1210 at the 7greatG3173 riverG4215 EuphratesG2166.” 15And the fourG5064 angelsG32, who had been preparedG2090 for the hourG5610 and dayG2250 and monthG3376 and yearG1763, were 8releasedG3089, soG2443 thatG2443 they would killG615 a 9thirdG5154 of mankindG444. 16The numberG706 of the armiesG4753 of the horsemenG2461 was 10twoG1365 G3461 hundredG1365 G3461 millionG1365 G3461; 11I heardG191 the numberG706 of them. 17And thisG3779 isG3779 howG3779 I sawG3708 12in my visionG3706 the horsesG2462 and thoseG3588 who satG2521 on them: the riders hadG2192 breastplatesG2382 the color of fireG4447, of hyacinthG5191, and ofG2306 13 14brimstoneG2306; and the headsG2776 of the horsesG2462 are likeG5613 the headsG2776 of lionsG3023; and 15out of their mouthsG4750 cameG1607 fireG4442 and smokeG2586 and 16 17brimstoneG2303. 18A 18thirdG5154 of mankindG444 was killedG615 by theseG3778 threeG5140 plaguesG4127, by the 19fireG4442, the smokeG2586, and the 20brimstoneG2303 which cameG1607 outG1607 of their mouthsG4750. 19For the powerG1849 of the horsesG2462 is in their mouthsG4750 and in their tailsG3769; for their tailsG3769 are likeG3664 serpentsG3789 and haveG2192 headsG2776, and with them they doG91 harmG91.

20The restG3062 of mankindG444, whoG3739 were not killedG615 by theseG3778 plaguesG4127, 21did not repentG3340 of 22the worksG2041 of their handsG5495 soG2443 asG2443 not to 23worshipG4352 demonsG1140 and 24the idolsG1497 of goldG5552, silverG693, brassG5470, stoneG3035, and woodG3585, whichG3739 canG1410 neitherG3777 seeG991 norG3777 hearG191 norG3777 walkG4043; 21and they 25did not repentG3340 of their murdersG5408, norG3777 of their 26witchcraftG5331, norG3777 of their 27sexualG4202 immoralityG4202, norG3777 of their theftsG2809.
