¹And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.

¹አምስተኛውም መልአክ ነፋ፤ ከሰማይም ወደ ምድር ወድቆ የነበረ ኮከብ አየሁ፥ የጥልቁም ጕድጓድ መክፈቻ ተሰጠው።

²And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.

²የጥልቁንም ጕድጓድ ከፈተው፤ ጢስም ከታላቅ እቶን እንደሚወጣ ጢስ ሆኖ ከጕድጓዱ ወጣ ፀሐይና አየርም በጕድጓዱ ጢስ ጨለሙ።

³And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

³ከጢሱም አንበጣዎች ወደ ምድር ወጡ፥ የምድርም ጊንጦች ሥልጣን እንዳላቸው ሥልጣን ተሰጣቸው።

⁴And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

⁴የእግዚአብሔርም ማኅተም በግምባራቸው ከሌለባቸው ሰዎች በቀር በምድር ያለውን ሣር ቢሆንም ወይም ማናቸውንም የለመለመ ነገር ወይም ማናቸውንም ዛፍ እንዳይጐዱ ተባለላቸው።

⁵And to them it was given 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 striketh a man.

⁵አምስትም ወር ሊሣቅዩአቸው ተሰጣቸው እንጂ ሊገድሉአቸው አይደለም፤ እነርሱም የሚሣቅዩት ሥቃይ ጊንጥ ሰውን ነድፎ እንደሚሣቅይ ነው።

⁶And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

⁶በዚያም ወራት ሰዎች ሞትን ይፈልጋሉ አያገኙትምም፥ ሊሞቱም ይመኛሉ ሞትም ከእነርሱ ይሸሻል።

⁷And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.

⁷የአንበጣዎቹም መልክ ለጦርነት እንደ ተዘጋጁ ፈረሶች ነው፥ በራሳቸውም ላይ ወርቅ እንደሚመስሉ አክሊሎች ነበሩአቸው፥ ፊታቸውም እንደ ሰው ፊት ነበረ፤

⁸And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.

⁸የሴቶችን ጠጕር የሚመስል ጠጕር ነበራቸው፥ ጥርሳቸውም እንደ አንበሳ ጥርስ ነበረ፥

⁹And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

⁹የብረት ጥሩር የሚመስልም ጥሩር ነበራቸው፥ የክንፋቸውም ድምፅ ወደ ጦርነት እንደሚጋልቡ እንደ ብዙ ፈረሶች ሰረገላዎች ድምፅ ነበረ።

¹⁰And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.

¹⁰እንደ ጊንጥም ጅራት ያለ ጅራት አላቸው በጅራታቸውም መውጊያ አለ፥ ሰዎችንም አምስት ወር እንዲጐዱ ሥልጣን አላቸው።

¹¹And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

¹¹በእነርሱም ላይ ንጉሥ አላቸው እርሱም የጥልቅ መልአክ ነው፥ ስሙም በዕብራይስጥ አብዶን በግሪክም አጶልዮን ይባላል።

¹²One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.

¹²ፊተኛው ወዮ አልፎአል፤ እነሆ፥ ከዚህ በኋላ ገና ሁለት ወዮ ይመጣል።

¹³And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,

¹³ስድስተኛውም መልአክ ነፋ፤ በእግዚአብሔርም ፊት ካለ በወርቅ ከተሠራ መሠዊያ ቀንዶች አንድ ድምፅ ሰማሁ፥

¹⁴Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.

¹⁴መለከትም ያለውን ስድስተኛውን መልአክ። በታላቁ ወንዝ በኤፍራጥስ የታሰሩትን አራቱን መላእክት ፍታቸው አለው።

¹⁵And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.

¹⁵የሰዎችንም ሲሶ እንዲገድሉ ለሰዓቱና ለቀኑ ለወሩም ለዓመቱም ተዘጋጅተው የነበሩ አራቱ መላእክት ተፈቱ።

¹⁶And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.

¹⁶የፈረሰኞችም ጭፍራ ቁጥር እልፍ ጊዜ እልፍ፥ እልፍ ጊዜ እልፍ ነበረ፤ ቁጥራቸውን ሰማሁ።

¹⁷And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

¹⁷ፈረሶቹንና በእነርሱም ላይ የተቀመጡትን እንዲሁ በራእይ አየሁ፤ እሳትና ያክንት ዲንም የሚመስል ጥሩር ነበራቸው፤ የፈረሶቹም ራስ እንደ አንበሳ ራስ ነበረ፥ ከአፋቸውም እሳትና ጢስ ዲንም ወጣ።

¹⁸By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

¹⁸ከአፋቸውም በወጡት በእሳቱና በጢሱ በዲኑም በእነዚህ ሦስት መቅሰፍቶች የሰዎቹ ሲሶ ተገደለ።

¹⁹For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.

¹⁹የፈረሶቹ ሥልጣን በአፋቸውና በጅራታቸው ነውና፤ ጅራታቸው እባብን ይመስላልና፥ ራስም አላቸው በእርሱም ይጐዳሉ።

²⁰And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

²⁰በእነዚህም መቅሠፍቶች ያልተገደሉት የቀሩቱ ሰዎች ለአጋንንትና ያዩ ወይም ይሰሙ ወይም ይሄዱ ዘንድ ለማይችሉ ከወርቅና ከብር ከናስም ከድንጋይም ከእንጨትም ለተሠሩ ለጣዖቶች እንዳይሰግዱ ስለ እጃቸው ሥራ ንስሐ አልገቡም፤

²¹Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

²¹ስለ መግደላቸውም ቢሆን ወይም ስለ አስማታቸው ወይም ስለ ዝሙታቸው ወይም ስለ ስርቆታቸው ንስሐ አልገቡም።
