요한계시록 9

1다섯째 천사가 나팔을 불매 내가 보니 하늘에서 땅에 떨어진 별 하나가 있는데 저가 무저갱의 열쇠를 받았더라 2저가 무저갱을 여니 그 구멍에서 큰 풀무의 연기 같은 연기가 올라오매 해와 공기가 그 구멍의 연기로 인하여 어두워지며 3또 황충이 연기 가운데로부터 땅 위에 나오매 저희가 땅에 있는 전갈의 권세와 같은 권세를 받았더라 4저희에게 이르시되 땅의 풀이나 푸른 것이나 각종 수목은 해하지 말고 오직 이마에 하나님의 인 맞지 아니한 사람들만 해하라 하시더라 5그러나 그들을 죽이지는 못하게 하시고 다섯 달 동안 괴롭게만 하게 하시는데 그 괴롭게 함은 전갈이 사람을 쏠 때에 괴롭게 함과 같더라 6그 날에는 사람들이 죽기를 구하여도 얻지 못하고 죽고 싶으나 죽음이 저희를 피하리로다 7황충들의 모양은 전쟁을 위하여 예비한 말들 같고 그 머리에 금 같은 면류관 비슷한 것을 썼으며 그 얼굴은 사람의 얼굴 같고 8또 여자의 머리털 같은 머리털이 있고 그 이는 사자의 이 같으며 9또 철흉갑 같은 흉갑이 있고 그 날개들의 소리는 병거와 많은 말들이 전장으로 달려 들어가는 소리 같으며 10또 전갈과 같은 꼬리와 쏘는 살이 있어 그 꼬리에는 다섯 달 동안 사람들을 해하는 권세가 있더라 11저희에게 임금이 있으니 무저갱의 사자라 히브리 음으로 이름은 아바돈이요 헬라 음으로 이름은 아볼루온이더라 12첫째 화는 지나갔으나 보라 아직도 이 후에 화 둘이 이르리로다 13여섯째 천사가 나팔을 불매 내가 들으니 하나님 앞 금단 네 뿔에서 한 음성이 나서 14나팔 가진 여섯째 천사에게 말하기를 큰 강 유브라데에 결박한 네 천사를 놓아 주라 하매 15네 천사가 놓였으니 그들은 그 년 월 일 시에 이르러 사람 삼분의 일을 죽이기로 예비한 자들이더라 16마병대의 수는 이만 만이니 내가 그들의 수를 들었노라 17이같이 이상한 가운데 그 말들과 그 탄 자들을 보니 불빛과 자주빛과 유황빛 흉갑이 있고 또 말들의 머리는 사자 머리 같고 그 입에서는 불과 연기와 유황이 나오더라 18이 세 재앙 곧 저희 입에서 나오는 불과 연기와 유황을 인하여 사람 삼분의 일이 죽임을 당하니라 19이 말들의 힘은 그 입과 그 꼬리에 있으니 그 꼬리는 뱀 같고 또 꼬리에 머리가 있어 이것으로 해하더라 20이 재앙에 죽지 않고 남은 사람들은 그 손으로 행하는 일을 회개치 아니하고 오히려 여러 귀신과 또는 보거나 듣거나 다니거나 하지 못하는 금, 은, 동과 목석의 우상에게 절하고 21또 그 살인과 복술과 음행과 도적질을 회개치 아니하더라

1The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky which had fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the abyss was given to him. 2He opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a burning furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit. 3Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who don’t have God’s seal on their foreheads. 5They 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 person. 6In those days people will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them. 7The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like golden crowns, and their faces were like people’s faces. 8They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like those of lions. 9They had breastplates, like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, or of many horses rushing to war. 10They have tails like those of scorpions, and stings. In their tails they have power to harm men for five months. 11They have over them as king the angel of the abyss. His name in Hebrew is “Abaddon”, but in Greek, he has the name “Apollyon”. 12The first woe is past. Behold, there are still two woes coming after this. 13The sixth angel sounded. I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14saying to the sixth angel who had one trumpet, “Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!” 15The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year, so that they might kill one third of mankind. 16The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million. I heard the number of them. 17Thus 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. 18By these three plagues were one third of mankind killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur, which proceeded out of their mouths. 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 harm. 20The 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. 21They didn’t repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their sexual immorality, nor of their thefts.

1En de vijfde engel heeft gebazuind, en ik zag een ster, gevallen uit den hemel op de aarde, en haar werd gegeven de sleutel van den put des afgronds. 2En zij heeft den put des afgronds geopend; en er is rook opgegaan uit den put, als rook eens groten ovens; en de zon en de lucht is verduisterd geworden van den rook des puts. 3En uit den rook kwamen sprinkhanen op de aarde, en hun werd macht gegeven, gelijk de schorpioenen der aarde macht hebben. 4En hun werd gezegd, dat zij het gras der aarde niet zouden beschadigen, noch enige groente, noch enigen boom, dan de mensen alleen, die het zegel Gods aan hun voorhoofden niet hebben. 5En hun werd macht gegeven, niet dat zij hen zouden doden, maar dat zij zouden van hen gepijnigd worden vijf maanden; en hun pijniging was als de pijniging van een schorpioen, wanneer hij een mens gestoken heeft. 6En in die dagen zullen de mensen den dood zoeken, en zullen dien niet vinden; en zij zullen begeren te sterven, en de dood zal van hen vlieden. 7En de gedaanten der sprinkhanen waren den paarden gelijk, die tot den oorlog bereid zijn; en op hun hoofden waren als kronen, het goud gelijk, en hun aangezichten als aangezichten van mensen. 8En zij hadden haar als haar der vrouwen, en hun tanden waren als tanden van leeuwen. 9En zij hadden borstwapenen als ijzeren borstwapenen; en het gedruis hunner vleugelen was als een gedruis der wagens, wanneer vele paarden naar den strijd lopen. 10En zij hadden staarten den schorpioenen gelijk, en er waren angels in hun staarten; en hun macht was de mensen te beschadigen vijf maanden. 11En zij hadden over zich tot een koning den engel des afgronds; zijn naam was in het Hebreeuws Abaddon, en in de Griekse taal had hij den naam Apollyon. 12Het ene wee is weggegaan, ziet, er komen nog twee weeen na dezen. 13En de zesde engel heeft gebazuind, en ik hoorde een stem uit de vier hoornen des gouden altaars, dat voor God was, 14Zeggende tot den zesden engel, die de bazuin had: Ontbind de vier engelen, die gebonden zijn bij de grote rivier, den Eufraat. 15En de vier engelen zijn ontbonden geworden, welke bereid waren tegen de ure, en dag, en maand, en jaar, opdat zij het derde deel der mensen zouden doden. 16En het getal van de heirlegers der ruiterij was tweemaal tien duizenden der tien duizenden; en ik hoorde hun getal. 17En ik zag alzo de paarden in dit gezicht, en die daarop zaten, hebbende vurige, en hemelsblauwe, en sulfervervige borstwapenen; en de hoofden der paarden waren als hoofden van leeuwen, en uit hun monden ging vuur, en rook, en sulfer. 18Door deze drie werd het derde deel der mensen gedood, namelijk door het vuur, en door den rook, en door het sulfer, dat uit hun monden uitging. 19Want hun macht is in hun mond, en in hun staarten; want hun staarten zijn aan de slangen gelijk, en hebben hoofden, en beschadigen met dezelve. 20En de overige mensen, die niet gedood zijn door deze plagen, hebben zich niet bekeerd van de werken hunner handen, dat zij niet zouden aanbidden de duivelen; en de gouden, en zilveren, en koperen, en stenen, en houten afgoden, die noch zien kunnen, noch horen, noch wandelen; 21En hebben zich ook niet bekeerd van hun doodslagen, noch van hun venijngevingen, noch van hun hoererij, noch van hun dieverijen.
