< Revelation 9 >

1 The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos g12)
Khan ceityih a pumhanaak ing uut ce yng hy, cawh khan nakawng dek awh anuk tla law aihchi pynoet ce hu nyng. Cawhkaw aihchi venawh a dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng dung cabi ce pe uhy. (Abyssos g12)
2 When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos g12)
Anih ing a dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng dung ce am awng awh, mai ak cak soeih maikhu amyihna maikhu ce hang thoeng law hy. Khawmik ingkaw khawhli boeih ce a dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng awh maikhu ing than sak hy. (Abyssos g12)
3 Locusts came out of the smoke onto the earth. [They were given] {[God] gave them} power [to sting people], like scorpions [sting people].
Cawhkaw maikhu awhkawng khawmdek awh khamkhawkkhqi ce law unawh cekkhqi venawh khawmdek awhkaw cengta-ai amyihna saithainaak ce pehy.
4 [God] told the locusts that they should not harm grass, nor any plants, nor any tree. [God said that they should harm only] those people who did not have a mark on the forehead [to show that they belonged to God].
Khawmdek awh sai, thingling ingkaw thingkhqi ama plawci sak aham cekkhqi venawh awipeeknaak awm hlai hy, a talqi awh Khawsa hatnaak amak awmkhqi ce plawci sak aham awi pehy.
5 [God] did not allow the locusts to kill those people. Instead, [he] allowed them to continue torturing people for five months. When they tortured people, the pain those people felt was like the pain a scorpion causes when it stings someone.
Cekkhqi him thainaak taw am pe nawh hla nga ak khui kyinaak ingkaw thekhanaak peek aham awi pehy. Cawhkaw khuikha huhnaak cetaw cengta-ai ing thlang ak cep awhkaw amyihna tlo hy.
6 During the time [when the locusts torture rebellious people, the pain will be so bad that] people will want to find a way to die, but they will not be able to [PRS].
Cemyihna a awm ak khuiawh thlangkhqi ing thihnaak ce sui hlai voei uh, am hu kawm uh; thih hy hlai voei uh thihnaak ing cekkhqi ce centaak khqi kaw.
7 The locusts looked like horses that are ready for battle. They had on their heads what looked like golden crowns. Their faces were like the faces of people.
Cawhkaw khamkhawkkhqi cetaw qaal tuk aham oepchoeh na ak awm meqangkhqi amyihna awm uhy. A lu awh sui lumyk amyihna ak awm lumyk ce myk qip uhy, ami haaikhqi taw thlanghqing a haai amyihna awm hy.
8 They had [long] hair like the [long] hair of women. Their teeth were [strong], like lions’ teeth.
Ami lusamkhqi taw nukhqi a lusam amyihna awm nawh, ami hakhqi taw samthyyn a hakhqi amyihna awm hy.
9 They wore metal breastplates. [When they were flying], their wings made a noise like the roar when many horses [pull chariots as they are] rushing into battle.
Thi amyihna ak awm kqangdan bai unawh, ang hla ang hum awi taw qaal tuknaak awh ak dawng meqang khawzah ak awi amyihna awm hy.
10 They had tails like scorpions have. With their tails they stung [people] for five months.
A ming maikhqi awm nawh cengta-ai amyihna thlang cep hy, ang mai ing hla nga ak khui thlang kyinaak pe thai hy.
11 The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos g12)
A dytnaak amak awm lawk-kqawng dung khuiawh kaw khan ceityih ce a mingmih a sangpahrang na ta uhy, anih ang ming taw Abaddon mingna hy, Greek awi na taw Apollyon mingna hy. (Abyssos g12)
12 That was the end of the first terrible event. [Be aware that] two tragic events are still to come.
Lamma awhkaw khaw mapnaak taw khum hawh hy; cehlai khaw mapnaak pakkhih ce a law aham awm hyn hy.
13 The sixth angel blew his trumpet. Then I heard a voice from the four corners of the golden altar that is in God’s presence.
Ak kquknaak khan ceityih ing uut ce a yng awh, Khawsa haiawh ak awm sui bawkthang awhkaw kii awhkawng awi ce za nyng.
14 It was saying to the sixth angel, the one who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels whom [I] have bound at the great river Euphrates!”
Ce ing uut ak pawm khan ceityih a venawh, “Euphrates long awh pin na ak awm khan ceityih tloek ce hlah hlah,” tina hy.
15 The four angels were released, those who had been {[He] released the four angels, whom [God] had} kept ready for that [exact] hour of that day, of that month, of that year. They were released {[He] released them} in order that they might enable [their soldiers to] kill a third of the [rebellious] people.
Ve khawnoek, nyn, hla ingkaw kum aham qoe qoe na a pin khan ceityih pupthli tloek ce dek thlang hloep thum khuiawh hloep oet him aham hlah hy.
16 The number of the soldiers riding on horses who did that was 200 million. I heard [someone say] how many there were.
Mirang awh ak ngawi cawhkaw qalkap cetaw million zanhih law hy. Cekkhqi izah ami law tice za nyng.
17 In the vision I saw what the horses and the [beings] that rode them looked like. They [wore] breastplates that were [red] like fire, [dusky blue] like smoke, and [yellow] like sulfur. The heads of the horses were like the heads of lions. From their mouths came fire, smoke, and [fumes of burning] sulfur.
Mirangkhqi ingkaw meqang ak khanawh ak ngawi thlangkhqi ce vemyihna hu nyng: Amik kqangdankhqi ce maikqawng amyihna ak hlawk, nukzup na ak awm ingkaw kat amyihna ak engkhqi na awm hy. Mirangkhqi cetaw samthyyn a lukhqi amyihna awm nawh am kha awhkawng maikqawng, maikhu ingkaw kat ce thoeng hy.
18 Those three things—the fire, the smoke, and the [burning] sulfur from [the horses’] mouths—killed a third of the [rebellious] people.
Cekkhqi am khak khui awhkawng ak thoeng nat pakthum maikqawng, maikhu ingkaw kat ing khawmdek awh thlang hloep thum khuiawh hloep oet ce him hy.
19 The horses had power with their mouths and with their tails. Their tails have heads like snakes by which they harm people.
Ce meqangkhqi a saithainaak taw ang mai ingkaw am kha awh awm hy; ang maikhqi ce khqui amyihna a lu awm nawh thlang ngawha ai sak hy.
20 The rest of the [rebellious] people, those who were not killed by these plagues of [fire and smoke and burning sulfur], did not turn from their sinful behavior. [They did not stop worshipping] the idols that they had made with their own hands. They did not stop worshipping demons and idols [that were made] of gold, of silver, of bronze, of stone, and of wood, [even though they are idols] that can neither see nor hear nor walk.
Vawhkaw nat ing am him nawh ak ngen tloek ce a mimah a kutsai awh zut hlan bak bak uhy; qaai bawk unawh, sui, ngun qawhum lung thing ing sai uhy- a mik amak dang, awi am za thai nawh amak cet thai myiqawlkhqi bawknaak ce am qoeng bak bak uhy.
21 They did not stop murdering people, or practicing sorcery, or acting in sexually immoral ways, or stealing [things].
Thlang himnaak, miklet, kutlam toeknaak, nu pa thawlh sainaak ingkaw quuk am qaainaak awh am zut bak bak uhy.
