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)
И пети анђео затруби, и видех звезду где паде с неба на земљу, и даде јој се кључ од студенца бездана; (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)
И отвори студенац бездана, и изиђе дим из студенца као дим велике пећи, и поцрне сунце и небо од дима студенчевог. (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].
И из дима изиђоше скакавци на земљу, и даде им се област, као што и скорпије имају област на земљи.
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].
И рече им се да не уде трави земаљској нити икаквој зелени, нити икаквом дрвету, него само људима који немају печат Божји на челима својим.
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.
И даде им се да их не убијају, него да их муче пет месеци; и мучење њихово беше као мучење скорпијино кад уједе човека;
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].
И у те дане тражиће људи смрт, и неће је наћи; и желеће да умру, и смрт ће од њих бежати.
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.
И скакавци беху као коњи спремљени на бој; и на главама њиховим као круне од злата, и лица њихова као лица човечија.
8 They had [long] hair like the [long] hair of women. Their teeth were [strong], like lions’ teeth.
И имаху косе као косе женске, и зуби њихови беху као у лавова;
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.
И имаху оклопе као оклопе гвоздене, и глас крила њихових беше као глас кола кад многи коњи трче на бој;
10 They had tails like scorpions have. With their tails they stung [people] for five months.
И имаху репове као скорпијине, и жалци беху на реповима њиховим; и дана им беше област да уде људима пет месеци.
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)
И имаху над собом цара анђела бездана коме је име јеврејски Авадон, а грчки Аполион. (Abyssos g12)
12 That was the end of the first terrible event. [Be aware that] two tragic events are still to come.
Једно зло прође, ево иду још два зла за овим.
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.
И шести анђео затруби, и чух глас један од четири рогља златног олтара који је пред Богом,
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!”
Где говори шестом анђелу који имаше трубу: Одреши четири анђела који су свезани код реке велике Еуфрата.
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.
И бише одрешена четири анђела који беху приправљени на сахат, и дан, и месец, и годину, да побију трећину људи.
16 The number of the soldiers riding on horses who did that was 200 million. I heard [someone say] how many there were.
И број војника на коњима беше двеста хиљада хиљада; и чух број њихов.
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.
И тако видех у утвари коње, и оне што сеђаху на њима, који имаху оклопе огњене и плаветне и сумпорне; и главе коња њихових беху као главе лавова, и из уста њихових излажаше огањ и дим и сумпор.
18 Those three things—the fire, the smoke, and the [burning] sulfur from [the horses’] mouths—killed a third of the [rebellious] people.
И од ова три зла погибе трећина људи, од огња и од дима и од сумпора што излажаше из уста њихових.
19 The horses had power with their mouths and with their tails. Their tails have heads like snakes by which they harm people.
Јер сила коња беше у устима њиховим, и у реповима њиховим; јер репови њихови биваху као змије и имаху главе, и њима иђаху.
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.
И остали људи који не бише побијени злима овим, не покајаше се од дела руку својих да се не поклањају ђаволима ни идолима златним и сребрним и бронзаним и каменим и дрвеним, који не могу видети ни чути, ни ходити;
21 They did not stop murdering people, or practicing sorcery, or acting in sexually immoral ways, or stealing [things].
Нити се покајаше од убиства својих, ни од чарања својих, ни од курварства свог, ни од крађа својих.
