5When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand.

Revelation 6:6

Revelation 6:7

7When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!”

9When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne.

Revelation 6:10

10They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”

11Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants

and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.

12When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood,

14The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.

Revelation 6:15

15Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone,

Revelation 6:15

slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains,

Revelation 6:16

16calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb,

Revelation 6:17

17for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?”
