| 1 | The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the abyss was given to him. | Rev 9:12 Rev 9:13 Rev 8:6-8 Rev 8:10-8 Rev 8:12-8 Rev 11:14 Rev 11:15 |
| 2 | He opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a great furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit. | Rev 9:17 Rev 14:11 Gn 15:17 Gn 19:28 Isa 14:31 Jl 2:30 Ac 2:19 |
| 3 | Then out of the smoke came forth locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. | Ex 10:4-15 Jg 7:12 Isa 33:4 Jl 1:4 Jl 2:25 Nah 3:15 Nah 3:17 |
| 4 | They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those men who don`t have God`s seal on their foreheads. | Rev 6:6 Rev 7:3 Jb 1:10 Jb 1:12 Ps 76:10 Mt 24:24 2Ti 3:8 2Ti 3:9 |
| 5 | They were given power not to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion, when it strikes a man. | Rev 13:5 Rev 13:7 Dn 5:18-22 Dn 7:6 Jn 19:11 |
| 6 | In those days men will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them. | Rev 6:16 2Sa 1:9 Jb 3:20-22 Jb 7:15 Jb 7:16 Isa 2:19 Jer 8:3 Hos 10:8 Jn 4:8 Jn 4:9 Lk 23:30 |
| 7 | The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like gold crowns, and their faces were like men`s faces. | Jl 2:4 Jl 2:5 Nah 3:17 |
| 8 | They had hair like women`s hair, and their teeth were like those of lions. | 2Ki 9:30 Isa 3:24 1Co 11:14 1Co 11:15 1Ti 2:9 1Pe 3:3 |
| 9 | They had breastplates, like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, or of many horses rushing to war. | Rev 9:17 Jb 40:18 Jb 41:23-30 Jl 2:8 |
| 10 | They have tails like those of scorpions, and stings. In their tails is their power to harm men for five months. | Rev 9:3 Rev 9:5 |
| 11 | They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is "Abaddon," but in Greek, he has the name "Apollyon." | Rev 12:9 Jn 12:31 Jn 14:30 Jn 16:11 2Co 4:4 Eph 2:2 1Jn 4:4 1Jn 5:19 |
| 12 | The first woe is past. Behold, there are still two woes coming after this. | Rev 9:1 Rev 9:2 |
| 13 | The sixth angel sounded. I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God, | Rev 9:1 |
| 14 | saying to the sixth angel who had one trumpet, "Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates." | Rev 8:2 Rev 8:6 |
| 15 | The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year, so that they would kill one third of mankind. | Rev 9:5 Rev 9:10 |
| 16 | The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million. I heard the number of them. | Ps 68:17 Dn 7:10 |
| 17 | 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. | Rev 9:9 |
| 18 | By these three plagues were one third of mankind killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur, which proceeded out of their mouths. | Rev 9:15 Rev 9:17 |
| 19 | 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. | Rev 9:10 Isa 9:15 Eph 4:14 |
| 20 | 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. | Rev 9:21 Rev 2:21 Rev 2:22 Rev 16:8 Dt 31:29 2Ch 28:22 Jer 5:3 Jer 8:4-6 Mt 21:32 2Co 12:21 |
| 21 | They didn`t repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their sexual immorality, nor of their thefts. | Rev 11:7-9 Rev 13:7 Rev 13:15 Rev 16:6 Rev 18:24 Dn 7:21-25 Dn 11:33 |
