Revelation 5:11-6

English Standard Version

¹¹ Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering ^(A)myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, ¹² saying with a loud voice,

¹³ And I heard ^(C)every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying,

¹⁴ And the four living creatures ^(D)said, “Amen!” and the elders ^(E)fell down and worshiped.

The Seven Seals

6 Now I watched when the Lamb opened one of ^(F)the seven seals, and I heard ^(G)one of the four living creatures say ^(H)with a voice like thunder, ^(I)“Come!” ² And I looked, and behold, ^(J)a white horse! And ^(K)its rider had a bow, and ^(L)a crown was given to him, and he came out ^(M)conquering, and to conquer.

³ When he opened the second seal, I heard ^(N)the second living creature say, “Come!” ⁴ And out came another horse, ^(O)bright red. Its rider was permitted ^(P)to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.

⁵ When he opened the third seal, I heard the ^(Q)third living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, ^(R)a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand. ⁶ And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, ^(S)“A quart^[a] of wheat for a denarius,^[b] and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and ^(T)do not harm the oil and wine!”

⁷ When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of ^(U)the fourth living creature say, “Come!” ⁸ And I looked, and behold, ^(V)a pale horse! And its rider's name was Death, and Hades followed him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill ^(W)with sword and with famine and with pestilence and ^(X)by wild beasts of the earth.

⁹ When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under ^(Y)the altar ^(Z)the souls of those who had been slain ^(AA)for the word of God and for ^(AB)the witness they had borne. ¹⁰ They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, ^(AC)holy and true, ^(AD)how long ^(AE)before you will judge and ^(AF)avenge our blood on ^(AG)those who dwell on the earth?” ¹¹ Then they were each given ^(AH)a white robe and ^(AI)told to rest a little longer, ^(AJ)until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers^{[c] (AK)}should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.
