6 After, I beheld when the Lamb opened one of the seals. And I heard one of the four beasts say with a voice like thunder, “Come!”
2 Therefore, I looked. And lo, there was a white horse. And he who sat on him had a bow. And a crown was given to him. And he went forth, conquering, so that he might overcome.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, “Come!”
4 And another red horse went out. And power was given to him who sat upon it to take peace from the earth, so that they should kill one another. And there was given to him a great sword.
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, “Come!” Then I looked, and lo, a black horse. And he who sat on him had a scales in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, “A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny, and the oil and wine do not damage!”
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, “Come!”
8 And I looked. And behold, a pale horse. And his name who sat on him was Death. And Hell followed after him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth; to kill with sword and with hunger and with death and with beasts of the earth.
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw, under the altar, the souls of those who were killed for the word of God, and for the testimony which they maintained.
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, Lord - Who are holy and true - do You not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
11 And long white robes were given to everyone. And it was said to them that they should rest for a little season until their fellow servants, and their brothers who would be killed just as they were, were fulfilled.
12 And when he had opened the sixth seal, I looked. And lo, there was a great earthquake. And the sun was as black as sackcloth made of hair. And the Moon was like blood.
13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig-tree casts her green figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
14 And heaven departed away - as a scroll when it is rolled - and every mountain and isle were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in dens and among the rocks of the mountains;
16 and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us! And hide us from the presence of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
17 “For the great Day of His wrath has come! And who can stand!?”
