Revelation 9:2-4

New American Standard Bible 1995

² He opened the ^[a]bottomless pit, and ^(A)smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and ^(B)the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. ³ Then out of the smoke came ^(C)locusts ^[b]upon the earth, and power was given them, as the ^(D)scorpions of the earth have power. ⁴ They were told not to ^(E)hurt the ^(F)grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the ^(G)seal of God on their foreheads.
