Revelation 9

1 Then the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from heaven to earth, and it was given the key to the pit of the Abyss.

1 第五位天使吹号，我就看见一个星从天落到地上，有无底坑的钥匙赐给它。

2 The star opened the pit of the Abyss, and smoke rose out of it like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke from the pit.

2 它开了无底坑，便有烟从坑里往上冒，好像大火炉的烟；日头和天空都因这烟昏暗了。

3 And out of the smoke, locusts descended on the earth, and they were given power like that of the scorpions of the earth.

3 有蝗虫从烟中出来，飞到地上；有能力赐给它们，好像地上蝎子的能力一样，

4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.

4 并且吩咐它们说，不可伤害地上的草和各样青物，并一切树木，惟独要伤害额上没有 神印记的人。

5 The locusts were not given power to kill them, but only to torment them for five months, and their torment was like the stinging of a scorpion.

5 但不许蝗虫害死他们，只叫他们受痛苦五个月。这痛苦就像蝎子螫人的痛苦一样。

6 In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, but death will escape them.

6 在那些日子，人要求死，决不得死；愿意死，死却远避他们。

7 And the locusts looked like horses prepared for battle, with something like crowns of gold on their heads; and their faces were like the faces of men.

7 蝗虫的形状，好像预备出战的马一样，头上戴的好像金冠冕，脸面好像男人的脸面，

8 They had hair like that of women, and teeth like those of lions.

8 头发像女人的头发，牙齿像狮子的牙齿。

9 They also had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the roar of many horses and chariots rushing into battle.

9 胸前有甲，好像铁甲。它们翅膀的声音，好像许多车马奔跑上阵的声音。

10 They had tails with stingers like scorpions, which had the power to injure people for five months.

10 有尾巴像蝎子，尾巴上的毒钩能伤人五个月。

11 They were ruled by a king, the angel of the Abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek it is Apollyon.

11 有无底坑的使者作它们的王，按着希伯来话，名叫亚巴顿，希腊话，名叫亚玻伦。

12 The first woe has passed. Behold, two woes are still to follow.

12 第一样灾祸过去了，还有两样灾祸要来。

13 Then the sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God

13 第六位天使吹号，我就听见有声音从 神面前金坛的四角出来，

14 saying to the sixth angel with the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”

14 吩咐那吹号的第六位天使，说：「把那捆绑在幼发拉底大河的四个使者释放了。」

15 So the four angels who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.

15 那四个使者就被释放；他们原是预备好了，到某年某月某日某时，要杀人的三分之一。

16 And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.

16 马军有二万万；他们的数目我听见了。

17 Now the horses and riders in my vision looked like this: The riders had breastplates the colors of fire, sapphire, and sulfur. The heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceeded fire, smoke, and sulfur.

17 我在异象中看见那些马和骑马的，骑马的胸前有甲如火，与紫玛瑙并硫磺。马的头好像狮子头，有火、有烟、有硫磺从马的口中出来。

18 A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke, and sulfur that proceeded from their mouths.

18 口中所出来的火与烟并硫磺，这三样灾杀了人的三分之一。

19 For the power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; indeed, their tails were like snakes, having heads with which to inflict harm.

19 这马的能力是在口里和尾巴上；因这尾巴像蛇，并且有头用以害人。

20 Now the rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the works of their hands. They did not stop worshiping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood, which cannot see or hear or walk.

20 其余未曾被这些灾所杀的人仍旧不悔改自己手所做的，还是去拜鬼魔和那些不能看、不能听、不能走，金、银、铜、木、石的偶像，

21 Furthermore, they did not repent of their murder, sorcery, sexual immorality, and theft.

21 又不悔改他们那些凶杀、邪术、奸淫、偷窃的事。
