Revelation 9:7-12 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

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.

11. They had as their king the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek he has the name Apollyon.

12. The first woe has passed. There are still two more woes to come after this.
