Rev 6
1
And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four
living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Come.
2
And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat thereon had a bow; and there
was given to him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer.
3
And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come.
4
And another [horse] came forth, a red horse: and to him whom sat thereon it was given
to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was
given to him a great sword.
5
And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, Come.
And I saw, and behold, a black horse; and he who sat thereon had a balance in his
hand.
6
And I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, A
measure of wheat for a shilling, and three measures of barley for a shilling; and
the oil and the wine hurt you not.
7
And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature
saying, Come.
8
And I saw, and behold, a pale horse: and he who sat upon him, his name was Death;
and Hades followed with him. And there was given to them authority over the fourth
part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with famine, and with death, and by the
wild beasts of the earth.
9
And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of them that
had been slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10
and they cried with a great voice, saying, How long, O Master, the holy and true,
do you not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11
And there was given them to each one a white robe; and it was said to them, that they
should rest yet for a little time, until their fellow-servants also and their brethren,
who should be killed even as they were, should have fulfilled [their course].
12
And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the
sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the whole moon became as blood;
13
and the stars of the heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts her unripe figs
when she is shaken of a great wind.
14
And the heaven was removed as a scroll when it is rolled up; and every mountain and
island were moved out of their places.
15
And the kings of the earth, and the princes, and the chief captains, and the rich,
and the strong, and every bondman and freeman, hid themselves in the caves and in
the rocks of the mountains;
16
and they say to the mountains and to the rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face
of him whom sits on the throne, and from the anger of the Lamb:
17
for the great day of their anger is come; and who is able to stand?
