Bible verses about "locusts" | Mace

Revelation 9:1-12

1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. 2 and he opened the bottomless pit, and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkned by reason of the smoke of the pit. 3 and there came out of the smoke locusts upon the land; and to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 and they were commanded not to hurt the fruits of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree; but those men who have not the seal of God in their foreheads. 5 and to them was power given, not to kill them, but to torment them five months: and their pain was like the pain which a scorpion produces when it strikes a man. 6 in those days shall men seek for death, but shall not find it; they will desire to die, and death will shun them. 7 the figure of the locusts were like that of horses prepared to battle; but on their heads they had, as it were, crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. 8 their hair was like that of women, and their teeth like the teeth of lions. 9 they were vested with breast-plates, as it were of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots and many horses running to battle. 10 they had stings in their tails like scorpions; and they had leave to molest men for five months with their stings. 11 they had for their king the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek his name is Apollyon. 12 One wo is past, and now two woes are to follow.
