Revelation 9:1-4 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

1. Then the fifth angel blew his trumpet. I saw a star which had fallen down to the earth, and it was given the key to the abyss.

2. The star opened the abyss, and smoke poured out of it, like the smoke from a large furnace; the sunlight and the air were darkened by the smoke from the abyss.

3. Locusts came down out of the smoke upon the earth, and they were given the same kind of power that scorpions have.

4. They were told not to harm the grass or the trees or any other plant; they could harm only the people who did not have the mark of God's seal on their foreheads.
