¹And the fifth angel sounded [his] trumpet: and I saw a star out of the heaven fallen to the earth; and there was given to it the key of the pit of the abyss.

¹ܘܕܚܡܫܐ ܙܥܩ ܘܚܙܝܬ ܟܘܟܒܐ ܕܢܦܠ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܘܐܬܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܩܠܝܕܐ ܕܒܐܪܘܗܝ ܕܬܗܘܡܐ ܀

²And it opened the pit of the abyss; and there went up smoke out of the pit as [the] smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke of the pit.

²ܘܤܠܩ ܬܢܢܐ ܡܢ ܒܐܪܐ ܐܝܟ ܬܢܢܐ ܕܐܬܘܢܐ ܪܒܐ ܕܡܫܬܓܪ ܘܚܫܟ ܫܡܫܐ ܘܐܐܪ ܡܢ ܬܢܢܐ ܕܒܐܪܐ ܀

³And out of the smoke came forth locusts on the earth, and power was given to them as the scorpions of the earth have power;

³ܘܡܢ ܬܢܢܐ ܢܦܩܘ ܩܡܨܐ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܘܐܬܝܗܒ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܥܩܪܒܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܀

⁴and it was said to them, that they should not injure the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but the men who have not the seal of God on their foreheads:

⁴ܘܐܬܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܗܪܘܢ ܠܥܤܒܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܠܟܠ ܝܘܪܩ ܐܦܠܐ ܠܐܝܠܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܬܡܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܝܬ ܥܝܢܝܗܘܢ ܀

⁵and 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 it strikes a man.

⁵ܘܐܬܝܗܒ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܩܛܠܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܢܫܬܢܩܘܢ ܝܪܚܐ ܚܡܫܐ ܘܬܫܢܝܩܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܬܫܢܝܩܐ ܕܥܩܪܒܐ ܡܐ ܕܢܦܠܐ ܥܠ ܐܢܫ ܀

⁶And in those days shall men seek death, and shall in no way find it; and shall desire to die, and death flees from them.

⁶ܘܒܝܘܡܬܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܢܒܥܘܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܠܡܘܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܫܟܚܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܢܬܪܓܪܓܘܢ ܠܡܡܬ ܘܢܥܪܘܩ ܡܘܬܐ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܀

⁷And the likenesses of the locusts [were] like to horses prepared for war; and upon their heads as crowns like gold, and their faces as faces of men;

⁷ܘܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܩܡܨܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܪܟܫܐ ܕܡܛܝܒܝܢ ܠܩܪܒܐ ܘܥܠ ܪܫܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܟܠܝܠܐ ܕܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܘܐܦܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܐܦܐ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܀

⁸and they had hair as women's hair, and their teeth were as of lions,

⁸ܘܤܥܪܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܤܥܪܐ ܕܢܫܐ ܘܫܢܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܪܝܘܬܐ ܀

⁹and they had breastplates as breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings [was] as the sound of chariots of many horses running to war;

⁹ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܪܝܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܝܢܐ ܕܦܪܙܠܐ ܘܩܠܐ ܕܓܦܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܩܠܐ ܕܡܪܟܒܬܐ ܕܪܟܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܪܗܛܝܢ ܠܩܪܒܐ ܀

¹⁰and they have tails like scorpions, and stings; and their power [was] in their tails to hurt men five months.

¹⁰ܘܐܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܘܢܒܝܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܥܩܪܒܐ ܘܥܘܩܤܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܕܘܢܒܝܬܗܘܢ ܘܫܘܠܛܢܗܘܢ ܠܡܗܪܘ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܝܪܚܐ ܚܡܫܐ ܀

¹¹They have a king over them, the angel of the abyss: his name in Hebrew, Abaddon, and in Greek he has [for] name Apollyon.

¹¹ܘܐܝܬ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܡܠܟܐ ܡܠܐܟܗ ܕܬܗܘܡܐ ܕܫܡܗ ܥܒܪܐܝܬ ܥܒܕܘ ܘܐܪܡܐܝܬ ܫܡܐ ܠܗ ܐܝܬ ܫܪܐ ܀

¹²The first woe has passed. Behold, there come yet two woes after these things.

¹²ܘܝ ܚܕ ܐܙܠ ܗܐ ܬܘܒ ܐܬܝܢ ܬܪܝܢ ܘܝ ܀

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

¹³ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܫܬܐ ܙܥܩ ܘܫܡܥܬ ܩܠܐ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܐܪܒܥ ܩܪܢܬܗ ܕܡܕܒܚܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܕܩܕܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܀

¹⁴saying to the sixth angel that had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound at the great river Euphrates.

¹⁴ܕܐܡܪ ܠܡܠܐܟܐ ܫܬܝܬܝܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܫܝܦܘܪܐ ܫܪܝ ܠܐܪܒܥܐ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܐܤܝܪܝܢ ܥܠ ܢܗܪܐ ܪܒܐ ܦܪܬ ܀

¹⁵And the four angels were loosed, who are prepared for the hour and day and month and year, that they might slay the third part of men;

¹⁵ܘܐܫܬܪܝܘ ܐܪܒܥܐ ܡܠܐܟܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܛܝܒܝܢ ܠܫܥܬܐ ܘܠܝܘܡܐ ܘܠܝܪܚܐ ܘܠܫܢܬܐ ܕܢܩܛܠܘܢ ܬܘܠܬܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܀

¹⁶and the number of the hosts of horse [was] twice ten thousand times ten thousand. I heard their number.

¹⁶ܘܡܢܝܢܐ ܕܚܝܠܘܬܐ ܕܦܪܫܐ ܬܪܬܝܢ ܪܒܘ ܪܒܘܢ ܫܡܥܬ ܡܢܝܢܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁷And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those that sat upon them, having breastplates of fire and jacinth and brimstone; and the heads of the horses [were] as heads of lions, and out of their mouths goes out fire and smoke and brimstone.

¹⁷ܘܗܟܢܐ ܚܙܝܬ ܪܟܫܐ ܒܚܙܘܐ ܘܠܕܝܬܒܝܢ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܬ ܫܪܝܢܐ ܕܢܘܪܐ ܘܩܪܟܕܢܐ ܕܟܒܪܝܬܐ ܘܩܪܩܦܬܐ ܕܪܟܫܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܩܪܩܦܬܐ ܕܐܪܝܘܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܦܘܡܗܘܢ ܢܦܩܐ ܢܘܪܐ ܘܟܒܪܝܬܐ ܘܬܢܢܐ ܀

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

¹⁸ܘܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܠܬ ܡܚܘܢ ܐܬܩܛܠܘ ܬܘܠܬܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܘܡܢ ܢܘܪܐ ܘܡܢ ܟܒܪܝܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܬܢܢܐ ܕܢܦܩ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁹For the power of the horses is in their mouth and in their tails: for their tails [are] like serpents, having heads, and with them they injure.

¹⁹ܡܛܠ ܕܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܪܟܫܐ ܒܦܘܡܗܘܢ ܘܐܦ ܒܕܘܢܒܝܬܗܘܢ ܀

²⁰And the rest of men who were not killed with these plagues repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and the golden and silver and brazen and stone and wooden idols, which can neither see nor hear nor walk.

²⁰ܘܫܪܟܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܕܠܐ ܐܬܩܛܠܘ ܒܡܚܘܬܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܬܒܘ ܡܢ ܥܒܕ ܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܤܓܕܘܢ ܠܕܝܘܐ ܘܠܦܬܟܪܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܘܕܤܐܡܐ ܘܕܢܚܫܐ ܘܕܩܝܤܐ ܘܕܟܐܦܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܡܫܡܥ ܡܨܝܢ ܐܘ ܠܡܗܠܟܘ ܀

²¹And they repented not of their murders, nor of their witchcrafts, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

²¹ܘܠܐ ܬܒܘ ܡܢ ܩܛܠܝܗܘܢ ܘܡܢ ܚܪܫܝܗܘܢ ܘܡܢ ܙܢܝܘܬܗܘܢ ܀
