¹[Ny nitsofana ny trompetra fahadimy, sy ny nahatongavan'ny loza voalohany] Ary ny anjely fahadimy nitsoka, dia hitako fa, indro, nisy kintana anankiray avy tany an-danitra latsaka tamin'ny tany; ary nomena ilay anjely ny fanalahidin'ny lavaka tsy hita noanoa.

¹And the fifth messenger did sound, and I saw a star out of the heaven having fallen to the earth, and there was given to it the key of the pit of the abyss,

²Ary nanokatra ny lavaka tsy hita noanoa izy, dia nisy setroka niakatra ary tamin'ny lavaka, tahaka ny setroka ary amin'ny lafaoro lehibe, ary tonga maizina ny masoandro sy ny habahabaka noho ny setroka avy tao amin'ny lavaka.

²and he did open the pit of the abyss, and there came up a smoke out of the pit as smoke of a great furnace, and darkened was the sun and the air, from the smoke of the pit.

³Ary nisy valala nivoaka avy tamin'ny setroka nankamin'ny tany; ary nomena hery ireny, tahaka ny herin'ny maingoka amin'ny tany. [ Gr. fahefana]

³And out of the smoke came forth locusts to the earth, and there was given to them authority, as scorpions of the earth have authority,

⁴Ary nilazana izy mba tsy hanimba ny ahitra amin'ny tany, na ny zava-maitso, na ny hazo akory aza, fa ny olona izay tsy manana ny tombo-kasen'Andriamanitra eo amin'ny handriny ihany.

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

⁵Nefa tsy navela hahafaty ary izy, fa ny hampanaintaina ary dimy volana; ary ny fampanaintainany dia tahaka ny fampanaintainan'ny maingoka, raha mamely olona.

⁵and it was given to them that they may not kill them, but that they may be tormented five months, and their torment [is] as the torment of a scorpion, when it may strike a man;

⁶Ary amin'izany andro izany dia hitady fahafatesana ny olona, fa tsy hahita; ary haniry ho faty izy, fa mandositra ary ny fahafatesana.

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

⁷Ary ny endriky ny valala dia tahaka ny soavaly voaomana ho enti-miady; ary tamin'ny lohany nisy satro-boninahitra toy ny volamena, ary ny tavany tahaka ny tavan'olona.

⁷And the likenesses of the locusts [are] like to horses made ready to battle, and upon their heads as crowns like gold, and their faces as faces of men,

⁸Ary nanam-bolo tahaka ny volom-behivavy izy, ary ny nifiny tahaka ny an'ny liona.

⁸and they had hair as hair of women, and their teeth were as [those] of lions,

⁹Ary nanam-piarovan-tratra tahaka ny fiarovan-tratra vy izy; ary ny fikopakopaky ny elany dia tahaka ny fikotrokotroky ny kalesy entin'ny soavaly betsaka miriotra ho amin'ny ady.

⁹and they had breastplates as breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings [is] as the noise of chariots of many horses running to battle;

¹⁰Ary manan-drambo tahaka ny maingoka izy sady misy fanindronana; ary amin'ny rambony no misy ny heriny hampahoriany ny olona dimy volana. [ Gr. fahefana]

¹⁰and they have tails like to scorpions, and stings were in their tails; and their authority [is] to injure men five months;

¹¹Ary manana ny anjelin'ny lavaka tsy hita noanoa ho mpanjakany izy; ny anarany amin'ny teny Hebreo dia Abadona, fa amin'ny teny Grika kosa dia Apolyona no anarany. [ Abadona = Fandringanana] [ Apolyona = Mpandringana]

¹¹and they have over them a king — the messenger of the abyss — a name [is] to him in Hebrew, Abaddon, and in the Greek he hath a name, Apollyon.

¹²Lasa ny loza anankiray; indreo, ho avy ny loza roa hafa koa, rehefa afaka izao.

¹²The first wo did go forth, lo, there come yet two woes after these things.

¹³[Ny nitsofana ny trompetra fahenina, sy ny nahatongavan'ny loza faharoa] Ary ny anjely fahenina nitsoka, dia nahare feo ary tamin'ny tandroky ny alitara volamena eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra aho,

¹³And the sixth messenger did sound, and I heard a voice out of the four horns of the altar of gold that is before God,

¹⁴nanao tamin'ny anjely fahenina, izay nanana ny trompetra, hoe: Vahao ny anjely efatra izay mifatotra any Eofrata, ony lehibe.

¹⁴saying to the sixth messenger who had the trumpet, `Loose the four messengers who are bound at the great river Euphrates;`

¹⁵Dia novahana ny anjely efatra izay voaomana ho amin'ny ora sy ny andro sy ny volana ary ny taona mba hahafaty ny ampahatelon'ny olona.

¹⁵and loosed were the four messengers, who have been made ready for the hour, and day, and month, and year, that they may kill the third of men;

¹⁶Ary ny isan'ny miaramila an-tsoavaly dia roa alinalina; nahare ny isany aho.

¹⁶and the number of the forces of the horsemen [is] two myriads of myriads, and I heard the number of them.

¹⁷Ary toy izao no nahitako ny soavaly teo amin'ny fahitana sy izay nitaingina azy: manana-piarovan-tratra tahaka ny afo sy ny setroka ary ny solifara izy; ary ny lohan'ny soavaly dia tahaka ny lohan'ny liona; ary misy afo sy setroka ary solifara mivoaka ary amin'ny vavany.

¹⁷And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those sitting upon them, having breastplates of fire, and jacinth, and brimstone; and the heads of the horses [are] as heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceedeth fire, and smoke, and brimstone;

¹⁸Ireo loza telo loha ireo, dia ny afo sy ny setroka ary ny solifara izay nivoaka ary tamin'ny vavany, no nahafaty ny ampahatelon'ny olona.

¹⁸by these three were the third of men killed, from the fire, and from the smoke, and from the brimstone, that is proceeding out of their mouth,

¹⁹Fa ny herin'ny soavaly dia eo amin'ny vavany sy ny rambony; fa ny rambony dia tahaka ny menarana sady manan-doha, ka ireny no entiny mampahory.

¹⁹for their authorities are in their mouth, and in their tails, for their tails [are] like serpents, having heads, and with them they do injure;

²⁰Nefa ny olona sisa, izay tsy matin'ireo loza ireo, dia tsy nibebaka hiala tamin'ny asan'ny tànany, mba tsy hivavaka amin'ny demonia sy ny sampy volamena sy volafotsy sy varahina sy vato ary hazo, izay tsy mahajery, na mahare, na afa-mamindra;ary tsy nibebaka tamin'ny namonoany olona izy, na tamin'ny nanaovany ody ratsy, na tamin'ny fijangajangany, na tamin'ny halatra nataony koa.

²⁰and the rest of men, who were not killed in these plagues, neither did reform from the works of their hands, that they may not bow before the demons, and idols, those of gold, and those of silver, and those of brass, and those of stone, and those of wood, that are neither able to see, nor to hear, nor to walk,

²¹ary tsy nibebaka tamin'ny namonoany olona izy, na tamin'ny nanaovany ody ratsy, na tamin'ny fijangajangany, na tamin'ny halatra nataony koa.

²¹yea they did not reform from their murders, nor from their sorceries, nor from their whoredoms, nor from their thefts.
