1 و َنَفَخَ المَلاكُ الخامِسُ فِي بُوقِهِ فَرَأيتُ نَجماً يَسَقُطُ مِنَ السَّماءِ إلَى الأرْضِ، وَقَدْ أُعطِيَ مِفتاحَ النَّفَقِ الَّذِي يُؤَدِّي إلَى الهاوِيَةِ.

And the fifth angel sounded 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.

2 ث ُمَّ فَتَحَ النَّجمُ فُوَّهَةَ الهاوِيَةِ، فَخَرَجَ مِنها دُخانٌ كَدُخانِ فُرنٍ عَظِيمٍ. فَأظلَمَتِ الشَّمسُ وَالسَّماءُ بِسَبَبِ الدُّخانِ المُنبَعِثِ مِنَ الفُوَّهَةِ.

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

3 ث ُمَّ خَرَجَ مِنَ الدُّخانِ جَرادٌ إلَى الأرْضِ. وَأُعطِيَ الجَرادُ قَدرَةً كَقُدرَةِ العَقارِبِ عَلَى الأرْضِ.

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

4 و َقِيلَ لَهُ أنْ لا يُؤذِيَ عُشبَ الأرْضِ، وَلا أيَّ نَباتٍ أخضَرَ أوْ شَجَرَةٍ، بَلْ فَقَطِ النّاسَ الَّذِينَ لَيسَ لَهُمْ خَتْمُ اللهِ عَلَى جِباهِهِمْ.

and 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:

5 و َلَمْ يُسمَحْ لَهُ بِأنْ يَقتُلَهُمْ، بَلْ أنْ يُعَذِّبَهُمْ لِخَمسَةِ شُهُورٍ عَذاباً كَالَّذي تُسَبِّبُهُ لَدغَةُ العَقرَبِ.

and it was given to them that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months; and their torment as torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man.

6 و َخِلالَ ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، سَيَطلُبُ النّاسُ المَوتَ فَلا يَجِدُونَهُ. سَيَتُوقُونَ إلَى المَوتِ، فَيَخْتَبِئَ المَوتُ مِنهُمْ.

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

7 و َكانَ الجَرادُ يُشبِهُ خُيُولاً مُعَدَّةً لِلحَربِ، عَلَى رُؤُوسِها ما يُشبِهُ تِيجاناً مِنَ الذَّهَبِ، وَوُجُوهُها كَوُجُوهِ النّاسِ.

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

8 ك انَ لَها شَعرٌ كَشَعرِ النِّساءِ، وَأسنانٌ كَأسنانِ الأُسُودِ.

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

9 ص ُدُورُها كَدُرُوعٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، وَصَوتُ أجنِحَتِها كَصَوتِ عَرَباتٍ تَجُرُّها خُيُولٌ كَثِيرَةٌ تَندَفِعُ نَحوَ المَعرَكَةِ.

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

10 ل َها أذنابٌ كَأذنابِ العَقارِبِ، وَفِي أذنابِها إبَرٌ لادِغَةٌ، وَلَها القُدرَةُ أنْ تُعَذِّبَ النّاسَ لِخَمسَةِ شُهُورٍ.

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

11 و َكانَ مَلاكُ هَذا الجَرادِ هُوَ مَلاكُ الهاوِيَةِ، الَّذِي اسْمُهُ بِالعِبرِيَّةِ «أبَدُّونُ،» وَفِي اليُونانِيَّةِ «أبُولِّيُّونُ.»

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

12 ل َقَدْ مَضَى الوَيلُ الأوَّلُ، لَكِنْ سَيَأتِي وَيلانِ آخَرانِ بَعدَ هَذا.

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

13 و َنَفَخَ المَلاكُ السّادِسُ فِي بُوقِهِ، فَسَمِعتُ صَوتاً مِنَ القُرُونِ الأربَعَةِ لِلمَذبَحِ الذَّهَبِيِّ الَّذِي أمامَ اللهِ.

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

14 ف َقالَ الصَّوتُ لِلمَلاكِ السّادِسِ الَّذِي كانَ مَعَهُ البُوقُ: «حَرِّرِ المَلائِكَةَ الأربَعَةَ المُقَيَّدينَ بِجوارِ نَهرِ الفُراتِ العَظِيمِ.»

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

15 و َهَكَذا تَحَرَّرَ المَلائِكَةُ الأربَعَةُ الَّذِينَ كانُوا قَدْ أُعِدُّوا لِتِلكَ السّاعَةِ وَاليَومِ وَالشَّهرِ وَالسَّنَةِ، حَتَّى يَقتُلُوا ثُلْثَ الجِنسِ البَشَرِيِّ.

And 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;

16 و َكانَ عَدَدُ الفُرسانِ مِئَتَي مِليُونَ فارِسٍ، فَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ عَدَدَهُمْ.

and the number of the hosts of horse twice ten thousand times ten thousand. I heard their number.

17 و َفِي رُؤيايَ بَدَتْ لِي الخُيُولُ وَفُرسانُها كَما يَلِي: كانَتْ لَهُمْ دُرُوعٌ مُلتَهِبَةٌ فِي حُمرَتِها، وَكالياقُوتِ فِي زُرقَتِها، وَكالكِبرِيتِ فِي صُفرَتِها. رُؤُوسُ الخُيُولِ كَرُؤُوسِ الأُسُودِ، وَمِنْ أفواهِها يَخرُجُ اللَّهَبُ وَالدُّخانُ وَالكِبِرِيتُ.

And 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 as heads of lions, and out of their mouths goes out fire and smoke and brimstone.

18 ب ِهَذِهِ الثَّلاثةِ: النّارِ وَالدُّخانِ وَالكِبِرِيتِ الَّذي يَخرُجُ مِنْ أفواهِها، قُتِلَ ثُلْثُ الجِنسِ البَشَرِيِّ.

By 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.

19 ك انَتْ قُوَّةُ الخُيُولِ فِي أفواهِها وَفِي ذُيُولِها، فَقَدْ كانَتْ ذُيُولُها كَالأفاعِي وَلَها رُؤُوسٌ مُؤذِيَةٌ.

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

20 أ مّا بَقِيَّةُ النّاسِ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يُقتَلُوا بِهَذِهِ الضَّرباتِ، فَلَمْ يَتُوبُوا عَنْ أعمالِهِمُ السَّيِّئَةِ، وَلَمْ يَكُفُّوا عَنْ عِبادَةِ الأرواحِ الشِّرِّيرَةِ، وَأصنامِ الذَّهَبِ وَالفِضَّةِ وَالنُّحاسِ وَالحَجَرِ وَالخَشَبِ، الَّتِي لا تَستَطِيعُ أنْ تَرَى أوْ تَسمَعَ أوْ تَسِيرَ.

And 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.

21 و َلَمْ يَتُوبُوا عَنْ جَرائِمِهِمْ، وَلا عَنْ سِحرِهِمْ أوْ زِناهُمْ أوْ عَنْ سَرِقاتِهِمْ.

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