1ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲙⲁϩⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲥⲁⲗⲡⲓⲍⲓⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲥⲓⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲁϥϩⲉⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϯ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϣⲟϣⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯϣⲱϯ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲩⲛ.
1Then 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.
2ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϣⲉ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲉⲙⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯϣⲱϯ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲭⲣⲉⲙⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲱ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲫⲣⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲁⲏⲣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲉⲙⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯϣⲱϯ.
2The 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.
3ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ϣϫⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲉⲙⲧⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϯⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϭⲗⲏ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ.
3And out of the smoke, locusts descended on the earth, and they were given power like that of the scorpions of the earth.
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲉⲣⲁⲇⲓⲕⲓⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓ⳿ⲥⲙⲉϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ϣϣⲏⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲉⲧⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ϯ⳿ⲥ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲅⲓⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲩⲧⲉϩⲛⲓ ⲁⲛ.
4They 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.
5ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲧⲏⲓⲥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙϧⲟⲑⲃⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϯ⳿ⲙⲕⲁϩ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲙⲕⲁϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲟⲩ⳿ⲧϩⲉⲙⲕⲟ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲕϩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲧϩⲉⲙⲕⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲛϭⲗⲏ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲩϣⲁⲛϫⲉⲕϩ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ.
5The 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.
6ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫⲉⲙϥ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲉⲣⲉⲡⲓⲑⲩⲙⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉϥⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ.
6In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, but death will escape them.

7And the locusts looked like horses prepared for battle, with something like crowns of gold on their heads, and faces like the faces of men.
8ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲟⲩϥⲱⲓ ⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫⲁ ⲛⲓϩⲓ⳿ⲟⲙⲓ.
8They had hair like that of women, and teeth like those of lions.

9They also had thoraxes like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the roar of many horses and chariots rushing into battle.
10ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲥⲏⲧ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϭⲗⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲥⲟⲩⲣⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲟⲩⲥⲏⲧ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣⲁⲇⲓⲕⲓⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲧ.
10They had tails with stingers like scorpions, which had the power to injure people for five months.

11They were ruled by a king, the angel of the Abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek it is Apollyon.
12ⲡⲓϩⲟⲩⲓⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲁϥⲥⲓⲛⲓ ⲓⲥ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲁϩⲃ̅ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ.
12The first woe has passed. Behold, two woes are still to follow.

13Then the sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God
14ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁϩⲋ̅ ⳿ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉ ϯⲥⲁⲗⲡⲓⲅⲝ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ϫⲉ ⲃⲉⲗ ⲡⲓⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
14saying to the sixth angel with the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”
15ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲃⲟⲗⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲓⲇ ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲟⲛϩⲟⲩ ⲉⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲟ ⲉⲩⲫⲣⲁⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲥⲉⲃⲧⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉϯⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϧⲱⲧⲉⲃ ⳿ⲙⲫⲣⲉⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ.
15So the four angels who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.
16ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲧⲏⲡⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲧⲁⲧⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲩⲡⲡⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⳿ⲑⲃⲁ ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲑⲃⲁ ⲛⲉ ⲁⲓⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲏⲡⲓ.
16And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.
17⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓ⳿ϩⲑⲟⲣ ϧⲉⲛ ϯϩⲟⲣⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ ϩⲓϫⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛϧⲉⲗⲓⲃϣ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲭⲣⲱⲙ ⲧⲟⲓ ϩⲓⲱⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩϩⲩⲁⲕⲓⲛⲑⲓⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲑⲏⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲧⲁⲫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓ⳿ϩⲑⲱⲣ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧⲁⲫⲉ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲙⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲉⲩⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲭⲣⲱⲙ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲭⲣⲉⲙⲧⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲑⲏⲛ.
17Now 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.
18ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲓⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛⲉⲣϧⲟⲧ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲫⲣⲉⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲭⲣⲱⲙ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲭⲣⲉⲙⲧⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲑⲏⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲣⲱⲟⲩ.
18A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke, and sulfur that proceeded from their mouths.
19⳿ⲡⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓ⳿ϩⲑⲱⲣ ⲛⲁϥⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲟⲩⲥⲏⲧ ⲡⲟⲩⲥⲏⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁϥⲟⲛⲓ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛ⳿ϩϥⲱ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲁⲫⲉ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲩⲉⲣⲁⲇⲓⲕⲓⲛ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲁⲃⲟⲧ.
19For 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.
20ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡⲥⲉⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁⲓⲉⲣϧⲱⲧ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲉⲣⲙⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ϩⲃⲏⲟⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲟⲩϫⲓϫ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲓϧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲓⲇⲱⲗⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲛⲟⲩⲃ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϩⲁⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϩⲟⲙⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϣⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲱⲛⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲙⲟϣⲓ.
20Now 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.
21ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲉⲣⲙⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩϧⲱⲧⲉⲃ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲫⲁϧⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲓⲕ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲟⲣⲛⲓⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲱϥ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩϭⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ
21Furthermore, they did not repent of their murder, sorcery, sexual immorality, and theft.
