[1] I saw that 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 and see!” [2] Then a white horse appeared, and he who sat on it had a bow. A crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer. [3] When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come!” [4] Another came out, a red horse. To him who sat on it was given power to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another. There was given to him a great sword. [5] When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, “Come and see!” And behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a balance in his hand. [6] I heard a voice in the middle of the four living creatures saying, “A choenixⓘ of wheat for a denarius, and three choenix of barley for a denarius! Don’t damage the oil and the wine!” [7] When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see!” [8] And behold, a pale horse, and the name of he who sat on it was Death. Hades§ followed with him. Authority over one fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword, with famine, with death, and by the wild animals of the earth was given to him. [9] When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. [10] They cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, Master, the holy and true, until you judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” [11] A long white robe was given to each of them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers,§ who would also be killed even as they were, should complete their course. [12] I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became as blood. [13] The stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when it is shaken by a great wind. [14] The sky was removed like a scroll when it is rolled up. Every mountain and island was moved out of its place. [15] The kings of the earth, the princes, the commanding officers, the rich, the strong, and every slave and free person, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains. [16] They told the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us, and hide us from the face 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 is able to stand?”

Opening of the Seals

[1] And G2532 I saw G1492 when G3753 the G3588 Lamb G721 opened G455 one G3391 of G1537 the G3588 seals, G4973 and G2532 I heard, G191 as it were G5613 the noise G5456 of thunder, G1027 one G1520 of G1537 the G3588 four G5064 beasts G2226 saying, G3004 Come G2064 and G2532 see. G991 [2] And G2532 I saw, G1492 and G2532 behold G2400 a white G3022 horse: G2462 and G2532 he that G3588 sat G2521 on G1909 him G846 had G2192 a bow; G5115 and G2532 a crown G4735 was given G1325 unto him: G846 and G2532 he went forth G1831 conquering, G3528 and G2532 to G2443 conquer. G3528 [3] And G2532 when G3753 he had opened G455 the G3588 second G1208 seal, G4973 I heard G191 the G3588 second G1208 beast G2226 say, G3004 Come G2064 and G2532 see. G991 [4] And G2532 there went out G1831 another G243 horse G2462 that was red: G4450 and G2532 power was given G1325 to him that G3588 sat G2521 thereon G1909 G846 G846 to take G2983 peace G1515 from G575 the G3588 earth, G1093 and G2532 that G2443 they should kill G4969 one another: G240 and G2532 there was given G1325 unto him G846 a great G3173 sword. G3162 [5] And G2532 when G3753 he had opened G455 the G3588 third G5154 seal, G4973 I heard G191 the G3588 third G5154 beast G2226 say, G3004 Come G2064 and G2532 see. G991 And G2532 I beheld, G1492 and G2532 lo G2400 a black G3189 horse; G2462 and G2532 he that G3588 sat G2521 on G1909 him G846 had G2192 a pair of balances G2218 in G1722 his G846 hand. G5495 [6] And G2532 I heard G191 a voice G5456 in G1722 the midst G3319 of the G3588 four G5064 beasts G2226 say, G3004 A measure G5518ⓘ of wheat G4621 for a penny, G1220 and G2532 three G5140 measures G5518 of barley G2915 for a penny; G1220 and G2532 see thou hurt G91 not G3361 the G3588 oil G1637 and G2532 the G3588 wine. G3631 [7] And G2532 when G3753 he had opened G455 the G3588 fourth G5067 seal, G4973 I heard G191 the voice G5456 of the G3588 fourth G5067 beast G2226 say, G3004 Come G2064 and G2532 see. G991 [8] And G2532 I looked, G1492 and G2532 behold G2400 a pale G5515 horse: G2462 and G2532 his G846 name G3686 that G3588 sat G2521 on G1883 him G846 was Death, G2288 and G2532 Hell G86 followed G190 with G3326 him. G846 And G2532 power G1849 was given G1325 unto them G846§ over G1909 the G3588 fourth part G5067 of the G3588 earth, G1093 to kill G615 with G1722 sword, G4501 and G2532 with G1722 hunger, G3042 and G2532 with G1722 death, G2288 and G2532 with G5259 the G3588 beasts G2342 of the G3588 earth. G1093 [9] And G2532 when G3753 he had opened G455 the G3588 fifth G3991 seal, G4973 I saw G1492 under G5270 the G3588 altar G2379 the G3588 souls G5590 of them that G3588 were slain G4969 for G1223 the G3588 word G3056 of God, G2316 and G2532 for G1223 the G3588 testimony G3141 which G3739 they held: G2192 [10] and G2532 they cried G2896 with a loud G3173 voice, G5456 saying, G3004 How G2193 long, G4219 O G3588 Lord, G1203 holy G40 and G2532 true, G228 dost thou G2919 not G3756 judge G2919 and G2532 avenge G1556 our G2257 blood G129 on G575 them that G3588 dwell G2730 on G1909 the G3588 earth? G1093 [11] And G2532 white G3022 robes G4749 were given G1325 unto every one of them; G1538 and G2532 it was said G4483 unto them, G846 that G2443 they should rest G373 yet G2089 for a little G3398 season, G5550 until G2193 G3739 their G846 fellowservants G4889 also G2532 and G2532 their G846 brethren, G80 that G3588 should G3195 be killed G615 as G5613 they G846 were, should be fulfilled. G4137 [12] And G2532 I beheld G1492 when G3753 he had opened G455 the G3588 sixth G1623 seal, G4973 and, G2532 lo, G2400 there was G1096 a great G3173 earthquake; G4578 and G2532 the G3588 sun G2246 became G1096 black G3189 as G5613 sackcloth G4526 of hair, G5155 and G2532 the G3588 moon G4582 became G1096 as G5613 blood; G129 [13] and G2532 the G3588 stars G792 of heaven G3772 fell G4098 unto G1519 the G3588 earth, G1093 even as G5613 a fig tree G4808 casteth G906 her G846 untimely figs, G3653§ when she is shaken G4579 of G5259 a mighty G3173 wind. G417 [14] And G2532 the heaven G3772 departed G673 as G5613 a scroll G975 when it is rolled together; G1507 and G2532 every G3956 mountain G3735 and G2532 island G3520 were moved G2795 out of G1537 their G846 places. G5117 [15] And G2532 the G3588 kings G935 of the G3588 earth, G1093 and G2532 the G3588 great men, G3175 and G2532 the G3588 rich men, G4145 and G2532 the G3588 chief captains, G5506 and G2532 the G3588 mighty men, G1415 and G2532 every G3956 bondman, G1401 and G2532 every G3956 free man, G1658 hid G2928 themselves G1438 in G1519 the G3588 dens G4693 and G2532 in G1519 the G3588 rocks G4073 of the G3588 mountains; G3735 [16] and G2532 said G3004 to the G3588 mountains G3735 and G2532 rocks, G4073 Fall G4098 on G1909 us, G2248 and G2532 hide G2928 us G2248 from G575 the face G4383 of him that G3588 sitteth G2521 on G1909 the G3588 throne, G2362 and G2532 from G575 the G3588 wrath G3709 of the G3588 Lamb: G721 [17] For G3754 the G3588 great G3173 day G2250 of his G846 wrath G3709 is come; G2064 and G2532 who G5101 shall be able G1410 to stand? G2476
