2AndG2532 he openedG455 the bottomlessG3588G12 pitG3588G5421; andG2532 there aroseG305 a smokeG2586 outG1537 of the pitG3588G5421, asG5613 the smokeG2586 of a greatG3173 furnaceG2575; andG2532 the sunG3588G2246 andG2532 the airG3588G109 were darkenedG4654 by reasonG1537 of the smokeG3588G2586 of the pitG3588G5421. 3AndG2532 there cameG1831 outG1537 of the smokeG3588G2586 locustsG200 uponG1519 the earthG3588G1093: andG2532 unto themG846 was givenG1325 powerG1849, asG5613 the scorpionsG3588G4651 of the earthG3588G1093 haveG2192 powerG1849. 4AndG2532 it was commandedG2046 themG846 thatG2443 they shouldG91 notG3361 hurtG91 the grassG3588G5528 of the earthG3588G1093, neitherG3761 anyG3956 green thingG5515, neitherG3761 anyG3956 treeG1186; butG1487G3361 onlyG3441 thoseG3748 menG3588G444 which haveG2192 notG3756 the sealG3588G4973 of GodG3588G2316 inG1909 theirG846 foreheadsG3588G3359. 5AndG2532 to themG846 it was givenG1325 thatG2443 they shouldG615 notG3361 killG615 themG846, butG235 thatG2443 they should be tormentedG928 fiveG4002 monthsG3376: andG2532 theirG846 tormentG3588G929 was asG5613 the tormentG929 of a scorpionG4651, whenG3752 he strikethG3817 a manG444. 6AndG2532 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG3588G2250 shallG2212 menG3588G444 seekG2212 deathG3588G2288, andG2532 shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 itG846; andG2532 shall desireG1937 to dieG599, andG2532 deathG3588G2288 shall fleeG5343 fromG575 themG846. 7AndG2532 the shapesG3588G3667 of the locustsG3588G200 were like untoG3664 horsesG2462 preparedG2090 untoG1519 battleG4171; andG2532 onG1909 theirG846 headsG3588G2776 were as it wereG5613 crownsG4735 likeG3664 goldG5557, andG2532 theirG846 facesG3588G4383 were asG5613 the facesG4383 of menG444. 8AndG2532 they hadG2192 hairG2359 asG5613 the hairG2359 of womenG1135, andG2532 theirG846 teethG3588G3599 wereG1510 asG5613 the teeth of lionsG3023. 9AndG2532 they hadG2192 breastplatesG2382, as it wereG5613 breastplatesG2382 of ironG4603; andG2532 the soundG3588G5456 of theirG846 wingsG3588G4420 was asG5613 the soundG5456 of chariotsG716 of manyG4183 horsesG2462 runningG5143 toG1519 battleG4171. 10AndG2532 they hadG2192 tailsG3769 like untoG3664 scorpionsG4651, andG2532 there wereG1510 stingsG2759 inG1722 theirG846 tailsG3588G3769: andG2532 theirG846 powerG3588G1849 was to hurtG91 menG3588G444 fiveG4002 monthsG3376.
