NOVA VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Et quintus angelus tuba cecinit. Et vidi stellam de caelo cecidis se interram, et data est illi clavis putei abyssi.	1 And the fifth Angel sounded the trumpet. And I saw upon the earth, a star that had fallen from heaven, and the key to the well of the abyss was given to him.
2 Et aperuit puteum abyssi, etascendit fumus ex puteo sicut fumus fornacis magnae; et obscuratus est sol etaer de fumo putei.	2 And he opened the well of the abyss. And the smoke of the well ascended, like the smoke of a great furnace. And the sun and the air were obscured by the smoke of the well.
3 Et de fumo exierunt locustae in terram, et data est illispotestas, sicut habent potestatem scorpiones terrae.	3 And locusts went forth from the smoke of the well into the earth. And power was given to them, like the power that the scorpions of the earth have.
4 Et dictum est illis, nelaederent fenum terrae neque omne viride neque omnem arborem, nisi tantumhomines, qui non habent signum Dei in frontibus.	4 And it was commanded of them that they must not harm the plants of the earth, nor anything green, nor any tree, but only those men who do not have the Seal of God upon their foreheads.
5 Et datum est illis, neocciderent eos, sed ut cruciarentur mensibus quinque; et cruciatus eorum utcruciatus scorpii, cum percutit hominem.	5 And it was given to them that they would not kill them, but that they would torture them for five months. And their torture was like the torture of a scorpion, when he strikes a man.
6 Et in diebus illis quaerent hominesmortem et non invenient eam; et desiderabunt mori, et fugit mors ab ipsis.	6 And in those days, men will seek death and they will not find it. And they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.
7 Et similitudines locustarum similes equis paratis in proelium, et super capitaearum tamquam coronae similes auro, et facies earum sicut facies hominum;	7 And the likenesses of the locusts resembled horses prepared for battle. And upon their heads were something like crowns similar to gold. And their faces were like the faces of men.
8 ethabebant capillos sicut capillos mulierum, et dentes earum sicut leonum erant,	8 And they had hair like the hair of women. And their teeth were like the teeth of lions.
9 et habebant loricas sicut loricas ferreas, et vox alarum earum sicut vox curruumequorum multorum currentium in bellum.	9 And they had breastplates like iron breastplates. And the noise of their wings was like the noise of many running horses, rushing to battle.
10 Et habent caudas similes scorpionibuset aculeos, et in caudis earum potestas earum nocere hominibus mensibus quinque.	10 And they had tails similar to scorpions. And there were stingers in their tails, and these had the power to harm men for five months.
11 Habent super se regem angelum abyssi, cui nomen Hebraice Abaddon et Graecenomen habet Apollyon.	11 And they had over them a king, the Angel of the abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Doom; in Greek, Destroyer; in Latin, Exterminator.
12 Vae unum abiit. Ecce veniunt adhuc duo vae post haec.	12 One woe has gone out, but behold, there are still two woes approaching afterward.
13 Et sextus angelus tuba cecinit. Et audivi vocem unam ex cornibus altarisaurei, quod est ante Deum,	13 And the sixth Angel sounded the trumpet. And I heard a lone voice from the four horns of the golden altar, which is before the eyes of God,
14 dicentem sexto angelo, qui habebat tubam: “Solve quattuor angelos, qui alligati sunt super flumen magnum Euphraten ”.	14 saying to the sixth Angel who had the trumpet: “Release the four Angels who were bound at the great river Euphrates.”
15 Et soluti sunt quattuor angeli, qui parati erant in horam et diem et mensem etannum, ut occiderent tertiam partem hominum.	15 And the four Angels were released, who had been prepared for that hour, and day, and month, and year, in order to kill one third part of men.
16 Et numerus equestris exercitusvicies milies dena milia; audivi numerum eorum.	16 And the number of the army of horsemen was two hundred million. For I heard their number.
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.	17 And I also saw the horses in the vision. And those who were sitting upon them had breastplates of fire and hyacinth and sulphur. And the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions. And from their mouths proceeded fire and smoke and sulphur.
18 Ab his tribus plagis occisa est tertiapars hominum, de igne et fumo et sulphure, quod procedebat ex ore ipsorum.	18 And one third part of men were slain by these three afflictions: by the fire and by the smoke and by the sulphur, which proceeded from their mouths.
19 Potestas enim equorum in ore eorum est et in caudis eorum; nam caudae illorumsimiles serpentibus habentes capita, et in his nocent.	19 For the power of these horses is in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails resemble serpents, having heads; and it is with these that they cause harm.
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,	20 And the rest of men, who were not slain by these afflictions, did not repent from the works of their hands, so that they would not worship demons, or idols of gold and silver and brass and stone and wood, which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk.
21 et non egerunt paenitentiam ab homicidiis suis neque aveneficiis suis neque a fornicatione sua neque a furtis suis.	21 And they did not repent from their murders, nor from their drugs, nor from their fornication, nor from their thefts.
