Revelation:6

Seeker Overlay ON

* I saw the Lamb open one of the seven locks . I heard the voice of one of the four living beings call , Come ! It sounded like thunder . * And I looked and saw a white horse . The man who rode on it had a bow to shoot arrows . A gold crown for his head was given to him . And he went out fighting to win the victory over his enemies . * When the Lamb opened the second lock , I heard the second living being call , Come ! * And another horse came out . It was red . The man who rode on it was allowed to take peace away from the earth , so that men would kill each other . The man who rode on it was given a long knife or sword . * When the Lamb opened the third lock , I heard the third living being call , Come ! I looked and saw a black horse . The man who rode on it had scales in his hand to weigh things . * I heard a voice among the four living beings . It said , Four cups of wheat for bread will sell for a days wages . Twelve cups of barley will sell for a days wages . But do not destroy the oil and the wine . * When the Lamb opened the fourth lock , I heard the fourth living being call , Come ! * I saw a horse the colour of ashes . The name of the man who rode it was Death . And the one who controls the world of the dead followed him . They were given power over a fourth part of the world . They could kill people with a sword , or by making them go without food to eat , or by making them sick , or with wild animals . * When the Lamb opened the fifth lock , I saw the souls of people who had been killed . They were under the holy table where incense is burned . They had been killed because they believed Gods word and said they believed it . * They called in a loud voice , Lord , you are holy and true . How long will you wait before you judge and punish the people on earth because they killed us ? * Then each one of them was given a white gown to wear . They were told to wait a little longer for the other Christian brothers . Those who worked with them for the Lord would be killed as they had been . * I saw the Lamb opening the sixth lock . The earth shook very much . The sun became very dark , like the black cloth people wear to show they are sad . The full moon became red like blood . * The stars in the sky fell to the earth . They fell like figs that are not ripe when the fig tree is shaken by a strong wind . * The sky was taken away like paper being rolled up . Every big hill and island was shaken out of its place . * The kings of the world , the great men , the army captains , the rich people , the strong people , every slave , and every freeman hid themselves in holes and the rocks on the big hills . * They called to the hills and to the rocks and said , Fall on us ! Hide us so the One on the throne will not see us . Hide us from the Lamb who is angry with us . * The great day has come , and he is very angry with us . Who can stand before him ?
