And the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star which had fallen from heaven to earth; and he was given the key of the shaft of the bottomless pit.

They have tails like scorpions, and stings, and their power to hurt men for five months lies in their tails.

The first woe is past; behold, two woes are still to come.

And this was how I saw the horses in my vision: the riders wore breastplates the color of fire and of sapphire and of sulfur, and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths came fire and smoke and sulfur.

Then the sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
