Revelation 9:2-11
2AndG2532 he openedG455 the bottomlessG12 pitG5421; andG2532 there aroseG305 a smokeG2586 out ofG1537 the pitG5421, asG5613 the smokeG2586 of a greatG3173 furnaceG2575; andG2532 the sunG2246 andG2532 the airG109 were darkenedG4654 by reason ofG1537 the smokeG2586 of the pitG5421.
3AndG2532 there cameG1831 out ofG1537 the smokeG2586 locustsG200 uponG1519 the earthG1093: andG2532 to themG846 was givenG1325 powerG1849, asG5613 the scorpionsG4651 of the earthG1093 haveG2192 powerG1849.
4AndG2532 it was commandedG4483 themG846 thatG3363 they shouldG91 notG3363 hurtG91 the grassG5528 of the earthG1093, neitherG3761 anyG3956 green thingG5515, neitherG3761 anyG3956 treeG1186; butG1508 onlyG3441 those menG444 whoG3748 haveG2192 notG3756 the sealG4973 of GodG2316 inG1909 theirG846 foreheadsG3359.
5AndG2532 to themG846 it was givenG1325 thatG3363 they shouldG615 notG3363 killG615 themG846, butG235 thatG2443 they should be tormentedG928 fiveG4002 monthsG3376: andG2532 theirG846 tormentG929 was asG5613 the tormentG929 of a scorpionG4651, whenG3752 he strikethG3817 a manG444.
6AndG2532 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250 shall menG444 seekG2212 deathG2288, andG2532 shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 itG846; andG2532 shall desireG1937 to dieG599, andG2532 deathG2288 shall fleeG5343 fromG575 themG846.
7AndG2532 the shapesG3667 of the locustsG200 were likeG3664 horsesG2462 preparedG2090 forG1519 battleG4171; andG2532 onG1909 theirG846 headsG2776 were as it wereG5613 crownsG4735 likeG3664 goldG5557, andG2532 theirG846 facesG4383 were asG5613 the facesG4383 of menG444.
8AndG2532 they hadG2192 hairG2359 asG5613 the hairG2359 of womenG1135, andG2532 theirG846 teethG3599 wereG2258 asG5613 the teeth of lionsG3023.
9AndG2532 they hadG2192 breastplatesG2382, as it wereG5613 breastplatesG2382 of ironG4603; andG2532 the soundG5456 of theirG846 wingsG4420 was asG5613 the soundG5456 of chariotsG716 of manyG4183 horsesG2462 runningG5143 toG1519 battleG4171.
10AndG2532 they hadG2192 tailsG3769 likeG3664 scorpionsG4651, andG2532 there wereG2258 stingsG2759 inG1722 theirG846 tailsG3769: andG2532 theirG846 powerG1849 was to hurtG91 menG444 fiveG4002 monthsG3376.
11AndG2532 they hadG2192 a kingG935 overG1909 themG848, who is the angelG32 of the bottomless pitG12, whoseG846 nameG3686 in the Hebrew languageG1447 is AbaddonG3, butG2532 inG1722 the Greek languageG1673 he hathG2192 his nameG3686 ApollyonG623.1
