1 O quinto anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e vi uma estrela que havia caído do céu sobre a terra. À estrela foi dada a chave do poço do Abismo.

And 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.

2 Q uando ela abriu o Abismo, subiu dele fumaça como a de uma gigantesca fornalha. O sol e o céu escureceram com a fumaça que saía do Abismo.

And 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.

3 D a fumaça saíram gafanhotos que vieram sobre a terra, e lhes foi dado poder como o dos escorpiões da terra.

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

4 E les receberam ordens para não causar dano nem à relva da terra, nem a qualquer planta ou árvore, mas apenas àqueles que não tinham o selo de Deus na testa.

And 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.

5 N ão lhes foi dado poder para matá-los, mas sim para causar-lhes tormento durante cinco meses. A agonia que eles sofreram era como a da picada do escorpião.

And 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.

6 N aqueles dias os homens procurarão a morte, mas não a encontrarão; desejarão morrer, mas a morte fugirá deles.

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

7 O s gafanhotos pareciam cavalos preparados para a batalha. Tinham sobre a cabeça algo como coroas de ouro, e o rosto deles parecia rosto humano.

And 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.

8 O s cabelos deles eram como os de mulher e os dentes como os de leão.

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

9 T inham couraças como couraças de ferro, e o som das suas asas era como o barulho de muitos cavalos e carruagens correndo para a batalha.

And 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.

10 T inham caudas e ferrões como de escorpiões, e na cauda tinham poder para causar tormento aos homens durante cinco meses.

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

11 T inham um rei sobre eles, o anjo do Abismo, cujo nome, em hebraico, é Abadom e, em grego, Apoliom.

And 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.

12 O primeiro ai passou; dois outros ais ainda virão.

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

13 O sexto anjo tocou a sua trombeta, e ouvi uma voz que vinha das pontas do altar de ouro que está diante de Deus.

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

14 E la disse ao sexto anjo que tinha a trombeta: “Solte os quatro anjos que estão amarrados junto ao grande rio Eufrates”.

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

15 O s quatro anjos, que estavam preparados para aquela hora, dia, mês e ano, foram soltos para matar um terço da humanidade.

And 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.

16 O número dos cavaleiros que compunham os exércitos era de duzentos milhões; eu ouvi o seu número.

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

17 O s cavalos e os cavaleiros que vi em minha visão tinham este aspecto: as suas couraças eram vermelhas como o fogo, azuis como o jacinto, e amarelas como o enxofre. A cabeça dos cavalos parecia a cabeça de um leão, e da boca lançavam fogo, fumaça e enxofre.

And 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.

18 U m terço da humanidade foi morto pelas três pragas: de fogo, fumaça e enxofre, que saíam das suas bocas.

By 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.

19 O poder dos cavalos estava na boca e na cauda; pois as suas caudas eram como cobras; tinham cabeças com as quais feriam as pessoas.

For 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.

20 O restante da humanidade que não morreu por essas pragas, nem assim se arrependeu das obras das suas mãos; eles não pararam de adorar os demônios e os ídolos de ouro, prata, bronze, pedra e madeira, ídolos que não podem ver, nem ouvir, nem andar.

And 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:

21 T ambém não se arrependeram dos seus assassinatos, das suas feitiçarias, da sua imoralidade sexual e dos seus roubos.

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