Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then the fifth angel sounded :
And I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth .
To him was given the key to the bottomless pit .
*
And he opened the bottomless pit ,
and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace .
So the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit .
*
Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth .
And to them was given power ,
as the scorpions of the earth have power .
*
They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth ,
or any green thing ,
or any tree ,
but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads .
*
And they were not given authority to kill them ,
but to torment them for five months .
Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man .
*
In those days men will seek death and will not find it ;
they will desire to die ,
and death will flee from them .
*
The shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle .
On their heads were crowns of something like gold ,
and their faces were like the faces of men .
*
They had hair like women '
s hair ,
and their teeth were like lions '
teeth .
*
And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron ,
and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running into battle .
*
They had tails like scorpions ,
and there were stings in their tails .
Their power was to hurt men five months .
*
And they had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit ,
whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon ,
but in Greek he has the name Apollyon .
*
One woe is past .
Behold ,
still two more woes are coming after these things .
