| 1 | And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals , and I heard , as it were the noise of thunder , one of the four beasts saying , Come and see . |
| 2 | And I saw , and behold a white horse : and he that sat on him had a bow ; and a crown was given unto him : and he went forth conquering , and to conquer . |
| 3 | And when he had opened the second seal , I heard the second beast say , Come and see . |
| 4 | And there went out another horse [that was] red : and [power] was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth , and that they should kill one another : and there was given unto him a great sword . |
| 5 | And when he had opened the third seal , I heard the third beast say , Come and see . And I beheld , and lo a black horse ; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances 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 [see] thou hurt not the oil and the wine . |
| 7 | And when he had opened the fourth seal , I heard the voice of the fourth beast say , Come and see . |
| 8 | And I looked , and behold a pale horse : and his name that sat on him was Death , and Hell followed with him . And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth , to kill with sword , and with hunger , and with death , and with the beasts of the earth . |
| 9 | And when he had opened the fifth seal , I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God , and for the testimony which they held : |
| 10 | And they cried with a loud voice , saying , How long , O Lord , holy and true , dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth ? |
| 11 | And white robes were given unto every one of them ; and it was said unto them , that they should rest yet for a little season , until their fellowservants also and their brethren , that should be killed as they [were], should be fulfilled . |
| 12 | And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal , and , lo , there was a great earthquake ; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair , and the moon became as blood ; |
| 13 | And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth , even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs , when she is shaken of a mighty wind . |
| 14 | And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together ; and every mountain and island 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 the dens and in the rocks of the mountains ; |
| 16 | And said to the mountains and rocks , Fall on us , and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne , and from the wrath of the Lamb : |
| 17 | For the great day of his wrath is come ; and who shall be able to stand ? |
