72Then locust came out of the smoke and descended on the earth and they had power to sting with the power of the scorpion.

   They were instructed not to damage grass, plants or the trees but to sting the people who didn't have the seal of God on their foreheads [the people that refused God's Messiah.]

      These scorpions were instructed not to kill people, but to torture them for five months with the pain of the scorpions stings.

          It will be in these days that people will wish they would die, but death will not come to them.
