13 第六位天使吹号的时候,我听见有一个声音从上帝面前的金祭坛的四个角发出来, 14 对刚才吹号的第六位天使说:“将那捆绑在幼发拉底河的四个天使放出来!” 15 那四个天使就被释放了,他们为了此年、此月、此日、此刻已经预备好了,要杀掉人类的三分之一。 16 我听见他们共有二亿兵马。 17 我在异象中看见了马和骑士。骑士胸甲的颜色像火焰、紫玛瑙和硫磺。马的头像狮子的头,口中喷出火、烟和硫磺。 18 马口中喷出的这三样灾害杀死了世上三分之一的人口。 19 这些马的杀伤力不只在口,也在尾巴。它们的尾巴像蛇,有头能咬伤人。

20 其余没有被这些灾害所杀的人仍不肯悔改、停止手中的恶行,还是去拜魔鬼和那些用金、银、铜、石、木所造,不能看、不能听、不能行走的偶像。 21 他们不肯为自己所犯的凶杀、邪术、淫乱和偷盗悔改。

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

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

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

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