Revelation 9:13-21 - A Third Of Humanity Killed By Plagues

13 And the sixth angel sounded its trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the four horns [i.e., corners] of the golden Altar, which is in front of God. 14 It said to the sixth angel with the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are tied up at the great Euphrates River." 15 And the four angels who had been ready for this hour and day and month and year were [now] released to kill one third of mankind. 16 And the armies of horsemen numbered two hundred million. I was told how many there were. 17 And this is how the horses and their riders looked in the vision: They had on their chests fire[-red], [smoke-]blue and sulphur[-yellow] armor plate, and the horses' heads were like lions' heads. And fire, smoke and sulphur proceeded out of their mouths. 18 One third of mankind was killed by these three plagues --- the fire, the smoke and the sulphur, which proceeded out of the horses' mouths. 19 For the power of the horses [to kill] is in their mouths and in their tails, for their tails are like snakes that have heads with which to harm people.

20 And the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, [still] did not repent of what they had made with their hands [i.e., their idolatry]. They did not stop worshiping demons, and gold, silver, brass, stone and wooden idols, which can neither see, nor hear nor walk. 21 And they refused to repent of their murders, their sorceries, their sexual immorality and their thievery.
