7. The appearance of the locusts was like horses equipped for battle. Something like gold crowns was on their heads; their faces were like men’s faces;
8. they had hair like women’s hair; their teeth were like lions’ teeth;
9. they had chests like iron breastplates; the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses rushing into battle;
10. and they had tails with stingers like scorpions, so that with their tails they had the power to harm people for five months.
