Revelation 9:14

Euphrates

12 The first woe has passed. Behold, two woes are still to follow.

13 Then the sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God

saying to the sixth angel with the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”

15 So the four angels who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.

16 And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.
