1And the fifth Angel blew, and I saw a star fall from Heaven unto the Earth. And to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit, and there arose a smoke of the pit, as it ⟨p. 247⟩were the smoke of a great furnace. And the Sun and the air were darkened, by the reason of the smoke of the pit. 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. And it was said unto 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 in their foreheads, and to them was commanded that they should not kill them, but that they should be vexed five months, and their pain was as the pain that cometh of a Scorpion, when he hath stung a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it: and shall desire to die, and death shall fly from them.
1And the fifte Aungel blewe, and I sawe a starre fall from Heauen vnto the Earthe. And to him was geuē the keye of the botomlesse pitte. And he opened the botomles pitte, and there arrose a smoke of the pitte, as it ⟨p. 247⟩were the smoke of a greate fornace. And the Sunne and the ayre were darkened, by the reason of the smoke of the pitte. And there came out of the smoke locustes vpō the earth: and vnto thē was geuen power as the Scorpions of the Earth haue power. And it was sayed vnto them that they should not hurte the grasse of the Earth, nother any grene thing: nother any tree, but only those menne which haue not the seale in theyr forheades, and to them was commaunded that they should not kill them, but that they should be vexed fiue monethes, and their payne was as the payne that commeth of a Scorpion, when he hath stonge a manne. And in those dayes shal men seke death, and shal not finde it: and shall desire to die, and death shall flie from them.
