Olphong 9

1 Puencawn a panga loh a ueng vaengah aisi pakhat vaan lamkah diklai la tla. A taengah tangrhom dung kah tangrhom cabi te a paek. (Abyssos g12)

And the fifth messenger sounded the trumpet, and I saw a star having fallen to the earth out of Heaven, and there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss, (Abyssos g12)

2 Te dongah tangrhom dung kah tangrhom te a ong tih tangrhom lamkah a khuu te hmai khuu la muep ha thoeng. Te vaengah tangrhom khuu loh khomik neh yilh te a hmuep sak. (Abyssos g12)

and [he] opened the pit of the abyss, and there came up a smoke out of the pit as smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened from the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)

3 Te phoeiah hmaikhu lamkah tangboeng te lai la ha thoeng. Te vaengah amih te diklai kah saelkhui-ta-ai loh thaomnah a dang bangla thaomnah a paek.

And out of the smoke came forth locusts to the earth, and there was given to them authority, as scorpions of the earth have authority,

4 Te phoeiah amih te a tal ah Pathen kah kutnoek aka khueh pawh hlang pawt atah, diklai kah khopol khaw, sulhing boeih neh thingkung boeih te thae sak pawt ham a thui.

and it was said to them that they may not injure the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads,

5 Te phoeiah amih te ngawn pawt ham ni te rhoek taengah a paek. Tedae hla nga khuiah a ngawn vetih a phaepnah loh saelkhui-ta-ai kah phaepnah bangla hlang a toeh.

and it was given to them that they may not kill them, but that they may be tormented five months, and their torment—as the torment of a scorpion—when it may strike a man;

6 Te khohnin ah hlang loh dueknah a toem uh suidae hmu uh loengloeng mahpawh. Duek ham khaw a hue uh suidae dueknah loh amih te a rhaelrham tak ni.

and in those days men will seek death and they will not find it, and they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.

7 Tangboeng rhoek kah mueisa tah caem la aka rhuengphong marhang rhoek phek la om tih a lu dongkah te sui rhuisam phek la, a maelhmai tah hlang maelhmai la,

And the likenesses of the locusts—like to horses made ready to battle, and on their heads [something] as garlands like gold, and their faces as faces of men,

8 sam khaw huta kah sam bangla a khueh uh tih a no tah sathueng kah no bangla om.

and they had hair as hair of women, and their teeth were as [those] of lions,

9 Rhangpho khaw thi rhangpho bang a khueh uh. Amih kah phae ol tah caem la aka yong marhang leng a yet kah ol bangla om.

and they had breastplates as breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings—as the noise of chariots of many horses running to battle;

10 A mai khaw saelkhui-ta-ai neh suehling phek la a khueh uh tih amih kah a mai ah hlang te hla nga thae sak ham a thaomnah khaw om.

and they have tails like to scorpions, and stings were in their tails; and their authority [is] to injure men five months;

11 Amih ah tangrhom dung kah puencawn te manghai la om. Anih ming te Hebrew la Abaddon tih Greek la Apollyon tila om. (Abyssos g12)

and they have over them a king—the messenger of the abyss—a name [is] to him in Hebrew, Abaddon, and in the Greek he has a name, Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)

12 Kosi pakhat tah khum. Hekah phoeiah kosi panit ha pawk bal ni he.

The first woe went forth, behold, there yet come two woes after these things.

13 Puencawn a parhuk loh a ueng vaengah Pathen hmaikah sui hmueihtuk a ki pali lamloh ol pakhat ka yaak.

And the sixth messenger sounded the trumpet, and I heard a voice out of the four horns of the altar of gold that is before God,

14 Olueng aka khueh puencawn a parhuk nah te, “Euphrates tuiva puei ah puencawn pali a khoh te hlah laeh,” a ti nah.

saying to the sixth messenger who had the trumpet, “Loose the four messengers who are bound at the great river Euphrates”;

15 Te dongah khonoek, khohnin, hla neh kum la a hmoel puencawn pali te, hlang hlop thum ah hlop at te ngawn ham a hlah uh.

and the four messengers were loosed, who have been made ready for the hour, and day, and month, and year, that they may kill the third of mankind;

16 Te vaengah marhang caem kah hlangmi tah a thawng thawngrha lo tih a hlangmi te ka yaak.

and the number of the forces of the horsemen—twice ten thousand ten thousands, and I heard the number of them.

17 Te phoeiah marhang neh a sokah aka ngol rhoek te mikhlam ah ka hmuh tangloeng, rhangpho a lingdak la, nukyum la, a aeng la a khueh uh. Marhang rhoek kah lu te khaw cathueng lu bangla om tih amih ka lamkah hmai, hmaikhu neh kat te thoeng.

And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those sitting on them, having breastplates of fire, and jacinth, and brimstone; and the heads of the horses [are] as heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceed fire, and smoke, and brimstone;

18 Amih ka khuikah aka thoeng hmai, hmaikhu, kat lamkah lucik pathum long te hlang hlop thum a ngawn.

by these three plagues the third of mankind was killed, from the fire, and from the smoke, and from the brimstone, that is proceeding out of their mouths,

19 Marhang rhoek kah saithainah tah a ka neh a mai ah om. Amih kah a mai loh rhul phek la lu a khueh uh dongah te nen te thae uh.

for the power of the horses are in their mouth, and in their tails, for their tails [are] like serpents, having heads, and they injure with them.

20 Te lucik rhoek lamkah a ngawn pawh, hlang hoei rhoek long te khaw a kut dongkah khoboe te yut uh pawh. Rhaithae neh sui mueirhol, cakben, rhohum, lungto neh thing te bawk pawt ham te. Te long te a hmu moenih, a yaak thai moenih, a pongpa moenih.

And the rest of mankind, who were not killed in these plagues, neither converted from the works of their hands, that they may not worship the demons, and idols, those of gold, and those of silver, and those of brass, and those of stone, and those of wood, that are neither able to see, nor to hear, nor to walk,

21 Amamih kah ngawnnah, a rhunsi khuehnah, a Cukhalnah, a huencan te khaw yut uh pawh.

and they did not convert from their murders, nor from their sorceries, nor from their whoredoms, nor from their thefts.
