rsv Revelation:9:3-10 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth ,
and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth ;
*
they were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green growth or any tree ,
but only those of mankind who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads ;
*
they were allowed to torture them for five months ,
but not to kill them ,
and their torture was like the torture of a scorpion ,
when it stings a man .
*
And in those days men will seek death and will not find it ;
they will long to die ,
and death will fly from them .
*
In appearance the locusts were like horses arrayed for battle ;
on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold ;
their faces were like human faces ,
*
their hair like women '
s hair ,
and their teeth like lions '
teeth ;
*
they had scales like iron breastplates ,
and the noise of their wings was like the noise of many chariots with horses rushing into battle .
*
They have tails like scorpions ,
and stings ,
and their power of hurting men for five months lies in their tails .
