και ειχον θωρακας ως θωρακας σιδηρους και η φωνη των πτερυγων αυτων ως φωνη αρματων ιππων πολλων τρεχοντων εις πολεμον kai eicon qwrakas ws qwrakas sidhrous kai h fwnh twn pterugwn autwn ws fwnh armatwn ippwn pollwn trecontwn eis polemon Rev 9.9 And they had breastplates like iron breastplates; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running to war.

και ουτως ειδον τους ιππους εν τη ορασει και τους καθημενους επ αυτων εχοντας θωρακας πυρινους και υακινθινους και θειωδεις και αι κεφαλαι των ιππων ως κεφαλαι λεοντων και εκ των στοματων αυτων εκπορευεται πυρ και καπνος και θειον kai outws eidon tous ippous en th orasei kai tous kaqhmenous ep autwn econtas qwrakas purinous kai uakinqinous kai qeiwdeis kai ai kefalai twn ippwn ws kefalai leontwn kai ek twn stomatwn autwn ekporeuetai pur kai kapnos kai qeion Rev 9.17 And so I saw in the vision the horses, and those sitting on them, having fire-colored breastplates, even dusky red and brimstone-like; and the heads of the horses as heads of lions; and out of their mouths come fire and smoke and brimstone.
