Revelation 6

The First Seal--Rider on White Horse

1

Then I saw when the  aLamb broke one of the  bseven seals, and I heard one of the  cfour living creatures saying as with a  dvoice of thunder, "Come 1."

2

I looked, and behold, a  awhite horse, and he who sat on it had a bow; and  ba crown was given to him, and he went out  cconquering and to conquer.

The Second Seal--War

3

When He broke the second seal, I heard the  asecond living creature saying, "Come 1."

4

And another,  aa red horse, went out; and to him who sat on it, it was granted to  btake peace from the earth, and that men would slay one another; and a great sword was given to him.

The Third Seal--Famine

5

When He broke the third seal, I heard the  athird living creature saying, "Come 1." I looked, and behold, a  bblack horse; and he who sat on it had a  cpair of scales in his hand.

6

And I heard something like a voice in the center of the  afour living creatures saying, "A  1quart of wheat for a  2denarius, and three  1quarts of barley for a  2denarius; and  bdo not damage the oil and the wine."

The Fourth Seal--Death

7

When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the  afourth living creature saying, "Come 1."

8

I looked, and behold, an  1 aashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name  bDeath; and  bHades was following with him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth,  cto kill with sword and with famine and with  2pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth.

The Fifth Seal--Martyrs

9

When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw  aunderneath the  baltar the  csouls of those who had been slain  dbecause of the word of God, and because of the  etestimony which they had maintained;

10

and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, " aHow long, O  1 bLord,  choly and true,  2will You refrain from  djudging and avenging our blood on  ethose who dwell on the earth?"

11

And  athere was given to each of them a white robe; and they were told that they should  brest for a little while longer,  cuntil the number of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed even as they had been, would be  dcompleted also.

The Sixth Seal--Terror

12

I looked when He broke the sixth seal, and there was a great  aearthquake; and the  bsun became black as  csackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood;

13

and  athe stars of the sky fell to the earth,  bas a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind.

14

 aThe sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up, and  bevery mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15

Then  athe kings of the earth and the great men and the  1commanders and the rich and the strong and every slave and free man hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains;

16

and they * asaid to the mountains and to the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the  1presence of Him  bwho sits on the throne, and from the  cwrath of the Lamb;

17

for  athe great day of their wrath has come, and  bwho is able to stand?"
