* And the fifth angel sounded , and I saw a star fall from heaven to the earth : and to him was given the key to the bottomless pit . * And he opened the bottomless pit ; and there arose smoke out of the pit , like the smoke of a great furnace ; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke from the pit . * And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth : and to them was given power , as the scorpions of the earth have power . * And they were told not to harm the grass of the earth , nor any green thing , nor any tree ; but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads . * And they were not permitted to kill them , but only to torment them for five months : and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion , when he stings a man . * And in those days shall men seek death , and shall not find it ; and shall desire to die , and death shall flee from them . * And the appearance of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle ; and on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold , and their faces were like the faces of men . * And they had hair like the hair of women , and their teeth were like the teeth of lions . * And they had breastplates , like breastplates of iron ; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots and horses rushing to battle . * And they had tails like scorpions , and stings ; and in their tails they had the power to hurt men for five months . * And they had a king over them , the angel of the bottomless pit , whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon , but in the Greek tongue , Apollyon . * One woe is past ; behold , there are two more woes yet to come .
