Revelation 9 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

The Fifth Trumpet: Shaft of the Abyss

Then^G2532 the fifth^G3991 angel^G32 sounded^G4537, and I saw^G3708 a star^G792 from heaven^G3772 which had fallen^G4098 to the earth^G1093; and the key^G2807 to the shaft^G5421 of the abyss^G12 was given^G1325 to him.

Rev 9:2

Rev 9:2He opened the shaft of the abyss, and smoke ascended out of the shaft like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened from the smoke of the shaft.

Rev 9:3

Rev 9:3Then out of the smoke came locusts [fn]upon the earth, and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

Rev 9:4

Rev 9:4They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads.

Rev 9:5

Rev 9:5And [fn]they were not permitted to kill [fn]anyone, but to torment for five months; and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it [fn]stings a person.

Rev 9:6

Rev 9:6And in those days people will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death [fn]will flee from them!

Rev 9:7

The [fn]appearance^G3667 of the locusts^G200 was like^G3664 horses^G2462 prepared^G2090 for battle^G4171; and on their heads^G2776 appeared^G5613 to be crowns^G4735 like^G3664 gold^G5557, and their faces^G4383 were like^G5613 human^G444 faces^G4383.

Rev 9:8

Rev 9:8They had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions.

Rev 9:9

Rev 9:9They had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, of many horses rushing to battle.

Rev 9:10

Rev 9:10They have tails like scorpions, and stings; and in their tails is their power to hurt people for five months.

Rev 9:11

Rev 9:11They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is [fn]Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name [fn]Apollyon.

Rev 9:12

The first^G1520 woe^G3759 has passed^G565; behold^G2400, two^G1417 woes^G3759 are still^G2089 coming^G2064 after^G3326 these^G3778 things^G3778.

The Sixth Trumpet: Army from the East

Rev 9:13

Then^G2532 the sixth^G1623 angel^G32 sounded^G4537, and I heard^G191 [fn]a voice^G5456 from the [fn]four^G5064 horns^G2768 of the golden^G5552 altar^G2379 which is before^G1799 God^G2316,

Rev 9:14

Rev 9:14saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”

Rev 9:15

Rev 9:15And the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released, so that they would kill a third of mankind.

Rev 9:16

Rev 9:16The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million; I heard the number of them.

Rev 9:17

Rev 9:17And this is how I saw in my vision the horses and those who sat on them: the riders had breastplates the color of fire, of hyacinth, and of [fn]brimstone; and the heads of the horses are like the heads of lions; and out of their mouths *came fire and smoke and [fn]brimstone.

Rev 9:18

Rev 9:18A third of mankind was killed by these three plagues, by the fire, the smoke, and the [fn]brimstone which came out of their mouths.

Rev 9:19

Rev 9:19For 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 do harm.

Rev 9:20

The rest^G3062 of mankind^G444, who^G3739 were not killed^G615 by these^G3778 plagues^G4127, did not repent^G3340 of the works^G2041 of their hands^G5495 so^G2443 as^G2443 not to worship^G4352 demons^G1140 and the idols^G1497 of gold^G5552, silver^G693, brass^G5470, stone^G3035, and wood^G3585, which^G3739 can^G1410 neither^G3777 see^G991 nor^G3777 hear^G191 nor^G3777 walk^G4043;

Rev 9:21

Rev 9:21and they did not repent of their murders, nor of their witchcraft, nor of their sexual immorality, nor of their thefts.
