Revelation chapter 9

Rev 9

The Fifth trumpet of the 7th seal: killers from bottomless pit, but must not touch the sealed-Saints of chapter 7.

1 And the fifth Angel sounds his trumpet; and I discern (one with) a Star out of heaven, falling unto the earth, and given to him is a key of a bottomless-pit (abyss).

2 and the bottomless pit is opened; and smoke ascend out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace, and the smoke out of the pit obscure the sun and the air.

3 And locusts proceed out of the smoke unto the earth, and authority was given to them, as scorpions of the land have authority.

4 and it is said to them, at least do not harm the grass of the earth, nor anything greenish, not even any trees; except the men who do not have the seal of God upon their foreheads.

5 And they are given, at least not to kill, but at least to torture them for FIVE months; and to torment like torment of the sting of scorpions, when it strike a man.

6 And in those days, men will seek death, and never find it; and they will long to die, and they will run away from death.

7 And the form of the locusts are similar in appearance to horses, as though prepared unto battle, and upon their head, are crowns similar to golden article; and their faces are like faces of men;

8 and they have hairs like woman-hairs; and their teeth like they were of lion;

9 and they have chest like iron-chest; and the sound of their wings like sound of many chariots of horses, rushing unto battle;

10 and they have tails similar to tails of scorpion; and in their sting is their authority to harm men for FIVE months.

11 they have a king upon them, the angel of the bottomless pit. Its name in Hebrew is Abad-don (don of destruction), and in Greek, it has a name, apollyon (destroyer)

12 Alas, one is past. Alas, be aware that two are still coming amid these years (of A.D.)

The Sixth Trumpet: 4 angels to gather CALVARY of army from River Euphrate (Gen 2:14, 2Chr 35:20) against the Lord Jesus

13 And the sixth Angel sounds his trumpet; and I hear the voice of One, out of the four horns (the 4 living Beings) by the golden-altars, before God,

14 saying to the sixth Angel, who holds the trumpet, to loosen the four angels, bound upon the great River-Euphrates.

15 and the four Angels are loosened, to prepare unto the year, and the month, and the day and the hour, at least to kill a third part of men;

16 and I heard their number, and the number of the army is twice myriad of ten thousands of horse-men/equestrians;.

17 and in this way, I discern the horses and those sitting upon them in the vision: they have sulphur on chests, even hyacinthine/deep blue flame; and the horses head are like lion-head, and out of their mouth proceed sulphurous fire, and smoke.

18 and from those three (trumpeters) a third part of men shall be killed, from plague, sulphur, fire, and smoke, proceeding out of their mouths. 

19 because the authority of the horses, is in their mouth; and in their tails; for their tails are similar to serpent, which have heads, and in them they do harm.

20 And the rest of men who are not killed in these plagues, do not repent from the deeds of their hands, at least, not to worship the demons, and the idols made of gold, of silver and of brass, and of stone and of wood, which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk.

21 And they do not repent of their murder, neither of their medical ritual purposes (pharmakos), nor of their harlotry, nor of their theft.
