Revelation 6

The Lamb Breaks the First Six Seals

6As I watched, the Lamb broke the first of the seven seals on the scroll

. Then I heard one of the four living beings say with a voice like thunder, "Come!"G2532G1492G3753G721G455G3391G1537G4973G2532G191G5613G5456G1027G1520G1537G5064G2226G3004G2064G2532G9912I looked up and saw a white horse standing there. Its rider carried a bow, and a crown was placed on his head. He rode out to win many battles and gain the victory.G2532G1492G2532G2400G3022G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2192G5115G2532G4735G1325G846G2532G1831G3528G2532G2443G35283When the Lamb broke the second seal, I heard the second living being say, "Come!"G2532G3753G455G1208G4973G191G1208G2226G3004G2064G2532G9914Then another horse appeared, a red one. Its rider was given a mighty sword and the authority to take peace from the earth. And there was war and slaughter everywhere.G2532G1831G243G2462G4450G2532G1325G846G2521G1909G846G2983G1515G575G1093G2532G2443G4969G240G2532G1325G846G3173G31625When the Lamb broke the third seal, I heard the third living being say, "Come!" I looked up and saw a black horse, and its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand.G2532G3753G455G5154G4973G191G5154G2226G3004G2064G2532G991G2532G1492G2532G2400G3189G2462G2532G2521G1909G846G2192G2218G1722G846G54956And I heard a voice from among the four living beings say, "A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day's pay

. And don't waste the olive oil and wine."G2532G191G5456G1722G3319G5064G2226G3004G5518G4621G1220G2532G5140G5518G2915G1220G2532G91G3361G1637G2532G36317When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living being say, "Come!"G2532G3753G455G5067G4973G191G5456G5067G2226G3004G2064G2532G9918I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. Its rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave

. These two were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword and famine and disease and wild animals.G2532G1492G2532G2400G5515G2462G2532G846G3686G2521G1883G846G2288G2532G86G190G3326G846G2532G1849G1325G846G1909G5067G1093G615G1722G4501G2532G1722G3042G2532G1722G2288G2532G5259G2342G10939When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of all who had been martyred for the word of God and for being faithful in their testimony.G2532G3753G455G3991G4973G1492G5270G2379G5590G4969G1223G3056G2316G2532G1223G3141G3739G219210They shouted to the Lord and said, "O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you judge the people who belong to this world and avenge our blood for what they have done to us?"G2532G2896G3173G5456G3004G2193G4219G1203G40G2532G228G2919G3756G2919G2532G1556G2257G129G575G2730G1909G109311Then a white robe was given to each of them. And they were told to rest a little longer until the full number of their brothers and sisters

—their fellow servants of Jesus who were to be martyred—had joined them.G2532G3022G4749G1325G1538G2532G4483G846G2443G373G2089G3398G5550G2193G846G4889G2532G2532G846G80G3195G615G5613G2532G846G3739G413712I watched as the Lamb broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became as dark as black cloth, and the moon became as red as blood.G2532G1492G3753G455G1623G4973G2532G2400G1096G3173G4578G2532G2246G1096G3189G5613G4526G5155G2532G4582G1096G5613G12913Then the stars of the sky fell to the earth like green figs falling from a tree shaken by a strong wind.G2532G792G3772G4098G1519G1093G5613G4808G906G846G3653G4579G5259G3173G41714The sky was rolled up like a scroll, and all of the mountains and islands were moved from their places.G2532G3772G673G5613G975G1507G2532G3956G3735G2532G3520G2795G1537G846G511715Then everyone—the kings of the earth, the rulers, the generals, the wealthy, the powerful, and every slave and free person—all hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains.G2532G935G1093G2532G3175G2532G4145G2532G5506G2532G1415G2532G3956G1401G2532G3956G1658G2928G1438G1519G4693G2532G1519G4073G373516And they cried to the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of the one who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb.G2532G3004G3735G2532G4073G4098G1909G2248G2532G2928G2248G575G4383G2521G1909G2362G2532G575G3709G72117For the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to survive?"G3754G3173G2250G846G3709G2064G2532G5101G1410G2476
