The Revelation to Yochanan, Chapter 6
{6:1} 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!" {6:2} And behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it
had a bow. A crown was given to him, and he came forth conquering, and
to conquer.
{6:3} When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living
creature saying, "Come!" {6:4} Another came forth, a red horse. To him
who sat on it was given to take shalom from the [1>]eretz[<1], and
that they should kill one another. There was given to him a great
sword.
{6:5} 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. {6:6} I heard a voice in the
midst 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!"
{6:7} When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living
creature saying, "Come and see!" {6:8} And behold, a pale horse, and
he who sat on him, his name was Death. She'ol followed with him.
Authority over one fourth of the [2>]eretz[<2], to kill with the
sword, with famine, with death, and by the wild animals of the
[3>]eretz[<3] was given to him.
{6:9} 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. {6:10} They cried with a loud
voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge
and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the [4>]eretz[<4]?" {6:11}
A long white robe was given 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, completed their course.
{6:12} 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. {6:13} The stars of the sky fell to the
[5>]eretz[<5], like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when it is
shaken by a great wind. {6:14} The sky was removed like a scroll when
it is rolled up. Every mountain and island were moved out of their
places. {6:15} The kings of the [6>]eretz[<6], 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.
{6:16} 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, {6:17} for the great day of his wrath has come; and who is able
to stand?"
