Revelation 9:1-12 - Tormenting Locusts From The Abyss

¹ And the fifth angel sounded; and I saw a star having fallen from the heaven to the earth; and the key of the pit of the abyss was given to him. ² And he opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke came out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened from the smoke of the pit. ³ And locusts came out of the smoke into the earth: and power was given unto them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. ⁴ And it was said to them that they shall not hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree; only the men who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads. ⁵ And it was given to them 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 may strike a man. ⁶ And in those days men will seek death, and will not find it; and they will desire to die, and death flies from them.

⁷ And the shapes of the locusts are like horses having been made ready for war; and upon their heads as it were crowns like gold, and their faces are like the faces of men. ⁸ And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. ⁹ And they had breastplates as breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses rushing to war. ¹⁰ And they have tails like scorpions, and stings: and their power is in their tails, to hurt men five months: ¹¹ and they have over them a king, the angel of the bottomless pit, to him the name is Abaddon in Hebrew, and in Greek he has the name Apollyon. ¹² One Woe is past; behold two Woes come yet after these things.
