KING JAMES BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.1 Et quintus angelus tuba cecinit. Et vidi stellam de caelo cecidis se interram, et data est illi clavis putei abyssi.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.2 Et aperuit puteum abyssi, etascendit fumus ex puteo sicut fumus fornacis magnae; et obscuratus est sol etaer de fumo putei.
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.3 Et de fumo exierunt locustae in terram, et data est illispotestas, sicut habent potestatem scorpiones terrae.
4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.4 Et dictum est illis, nelaederent fenum terrae neque omne viride neque omnem arborem, nisi tantumhomines, qui non habent signum Dei in frontibus.
5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.5 Et datum est illis, neocciderent eos, sed ut cruciarentur mensibus quinque; et cruciatus eorum utcruciatus scorpii, cum percutit hominem.
6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.6 Et in diebus illis quaerent hominesmortem et non invenient eam; et desiderabunt mori, et fugit mors ab ipsis.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.7 Et similitudines locustarum similes equis paratis in proelium, et super capitaearum tamquam coronae similes auro, et facies earum sicut facies hominum;
8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.8 ethabebant capillos sicut capillos mulierum, et dentes earum sicut leonum erant,
9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.9 et habebant loricas sicut loricas ferreas, et vox alarum earum sicut vox curruumequorum multorum currentium in bellum.
10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.10 Et habent caudas similes scorpionibuset aculeos, et in caudis earum potestas earum nocere hominibus mensibus quinque.
11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.11 Habent super se regem angelum abyssi, cui nomen Hebraice Abaddon et Graecenomen habet Apollyon.
12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.12 Vae unum abiit. Ecce veniunt adhuc duo vae post haec.
13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,13 Et sextus angelus tuba cecinit. Et audivi vocem unam ex cornibus altarisaurei, quod est ante Deum,
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.14 dicentem sexto angelo, qui habebat tubam: “Solve quattuor angelos, qui alligati sunt super flumen magnum Euphraten ”.
15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.15 Et soluti sunt quattuor angeli, qui parati erant in horam et diem et mensem etannum, ut occiderent tertiam partem hominum.
16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.16 Et numerus equestris exercitusvicies milies dena milia; audivi numerum eorum.
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.17 Et ita vidi equos in visioneet, qui sedebant super eos, habentes loricas igneas et hyacinthinas etsulphureas; et capita equorum erant tamquam capita leonum, et de ore ipsorumprocedit ignis et fumus et sulphur.
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.18 Ab his tribus plagis occisa est tertiapars hominum, de igne et fumo et sulphure, quod procedebat ex ore ipsorum.
19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.19 Potestas enim equorum in ore eorum est et in caudis eorum; nam caudae illorumsimiles serpentibus habentes capita, et in his nocent.
20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:20 Et ceteri homines, qui non sunt occisi in his plagis neque paenitentiamegerunt de operibus manuum suarum, ut non adorarent daemonia et simulacra aureaet argentea et aerea et lapidea et lignea, quae neque videre possunt nequeaudire neque ambulare,
21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.21 et non egerunt paenitentiam ab homicidiis suis neque aveneficiis suis neque a fornicatione sua neque a furtis suis.
