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. 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. 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. And they had hair like the hair of women. And their teeth were like the teeth of lions.
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. 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. 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. One woe has gone out, but behold, there are still two woes approaching afterward.
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. saying to the sixth Angel who had the trumpet: "Release the four Angels who were bound at the great river Euphrates."
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. And the number of the army of horsemen was two hundred million. For I heard their number.
