Revelation 9:4-6

English Standard Version

⁴ They were told ^(A)not to harm ^(B)the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have ^(C)the seal of God on their foreheads. ⁵ They were allowed to torment them ^(D)for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. ⁶ And in those days ^(E)people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.
