6THEN I saw as the Lamb broke open one of the seven seals, and as if in a voice of thunder I heard one of the four living creatures call out, Come!G2532G1492G3753G721G455G3391G1537G4973G2532G191G5613G5456G1027G1520G1537G5064G2226G3004G2064G2532G991 2And I looked, and saw there a white horse whose rider carried a bow. And a crown was given him, and he rode forth conquering and to conquer.G2532G1492G2532G2400G3022G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2192G5115G2532G4735G1325G846G2532G1831G3528G2532G2443G3528 3And when He broke the second seal, I heard the second living creature call out, Come!G2532G3753G455G1208G4973G191G1208G2226G3004G2064G2532G991 4And another horse came out, flaming red. And its rider was empowered to take the peace from the earth, so that men slaughtered one another; and he was given a huge sword.G2532G1831G243G2462G4450G2532G1325G846G2521G1909G846G2983G1515G575G1093G2532G2443G4969G240G2532G1325G846G3173G3162 5When He broke open the third seal, I heard the third living creature call out, Come {and look} ! And I saw, and behold, a black horse, and in his hand the rider had a pair of scales (a balance).G2532G3753G455G5154G4973G191G5154G2226G3004G2064G2532G991G2532G1492G2532G2400G3189G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2192G2218G1722G846G5495 6And I heard what seemed to be a voice from the midst of the four living creatures, saying, A quart of wheat for a denarius [a whole day's wages], and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not harm the oil and the wine! [II Kings 6:25.]G2532G191G5456G1722G3319G5064G2226G3004G5518G4621G1220G2532G5140G5518G2915G1220G2532G91G3361G1637G2532G3631 7When the Lamb broke open the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living creature call out, Come!G2532G3753G455G5067G4973G191G5456G5067G2226G3004G2064G2532G991 8So I looked, and behold, an ashy pale horse [black and blue as if made so by bruising], and its rider's name was Death, and Hades (the realm of the dead) followed him closely. And they were given authority {and} power over a fourth part of the earth to kill with the sword and with famine and with plague (pestilence, disease) and with wild beasts of the earth.G2532G1492G2532G2400G5515G2462G2532G846G3686G2521G1883G846G2288G2532G86G190G3326G846G2532G1849G1325G846G1909G5067G1093G615G1722G4501G2532G1722G3042G2532G1722G2288G2532G5259G2342G1093 9When the Lamb broke open the fifth seal, I saw at the foot of the altar the souls of those whose lives had been sacrificed for [adhering to] the Word of God and for the testimony they had borne.G2532G3753G455G3991G4973G1492G5270G2379G5590G4969G1223G3056G2316G2532G1223G3141G3739G2192 10They cried in a loud voice, O [Sovereign] Lord, holy and true, how long now before You will sit in judgment and avenge our blood upon those who dwell on the earth?G2532G2896G3173G5456G3004G2193G4219G1203G40G2532G228G2919G3756G2919G2532G1556G2257G129G575G2730G1909G1093 11Then they were each given a long {and} flowing {and} festive white robe and told to rest {and} wait patiently a little while longer, until the number should be complete of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed as they themselves had been.G2532G3022G4749G1325G1538G2532G4483G846G2443G373G2089G3398G5550G2193G846G4889G2532G2532G846G80G3195G615G5613G2532G846G3739G4137 12When He [the Lamb] broke open the sixth seal, I looked, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun grew black as sackcloth of hair, [the full disc of] the moon became like blood.G2532G1492G3753G455G1623G4973G2532G2400G1096G3173G4578G2532G2246G1096G3189G5613G4526G5155G2532G4582G1096G5613G129 13And the stars of the sky dropped to the earth like a fig tree shedding its unripe fruit out of season when shaken by a strong wind.G2532G792G3772G4098G1519G1093G5613G4808G906G846G3653G4579G5259G3173G417 14And the sky rolled up like a scroll {and} vanished, and every mountain and island was dislodged from its place.G2532G3772G673G5613G975G1507G2532G3956G3735G2532G3520G2795G1537G846G5117 15Then the kings of the earth and their noblemen and their magnates and their military chiefs and the wealthy and the strong and [everyone, whether] slave or free hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains,G2532G935G1093G2532G3175G2532G4145G2532G5506G2532G1415G2532G3956G1401G2532G3956G1658G2928G1438G1519G4693G2532G1519G4073G3735 16And they called to the mountains and the rocks, Fall on (before) us and hide us from the face of Him Who sits on the throne and from the deep-seated indignation {and} wrath of the Lamb.G2532G3004G3735G2532G4073G4098G1909G2248G2532G2928G2248G575G4383G2521G1909G2362G2532G575G3709G721 17For the great day of His wrath (vengeance, retribution, indignation) has come, and who is able to stand before it?G3754G3173G2250G846G3709G2064G2532G5101G1410G2476
