Revelation:9:13-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The sixth angel sounded .
I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God ,
*
saying to the sixth angel who had one trumpet , "
Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates !"
*
The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year ,
so that they might kill one third of mankind .
*
The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million {
literally , "
ten thousands of ten thousands "}.
I heard the number of them .
*
Thus I saw the horses in the vision ,
and those who sat on them ,
having breastplates of fiery red ,
hyacinth blue ,
and sulfur yellow ;
and the heads of lions .
Out of their mouths proceed fire ,
smoke ,
and sulfur .
*
By these three plagues were one third of mankind killed :
by the fire ,
the smoke ,
and the sulfur ,
which proceeded out of their mouths .
*
For 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 harm .
*
The rest of mankind ,
who were not killed with these plagues ,
didn '
t repent of the works of their hands ,
that they wouldn '
t worship demons ,
and the idols of gold ,
and of silver ,
and of brass ,
and of stone ,
and of wood ;
which can neither see ,
nor hear ,
nor walk .
*
They didn '
t repent of their murders ,
nor of their sorceries , {
The word for "
sorceries " (
pharmakeia )
also implies the use of potions ,
poisons ,
and drugs }
nor of their sexual immorality ,
nor of their thefts .
