启示录 6
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
羊羔揭开六个印
6 羊羔揭开了七印的第一个印的时候,我观看,就听见四个活物中的一个,发出好象雷轰的声响,说:“你来!” 2 我观看,见有一匹白马;骑在马上的拿着弓,有冠冕赐给他,他就出去,得胜并且要再得胜。
3 羊羔揭开了第二个印的时候,我听见第二个活物说:“你来!” 4 就另有一匹红马出来,骑在马上的得了权柄,可以从地上夺去和平,使人互相残杀,又有一把大刀赐给他。
5 羊羔揭开了第三个印的时候,我听见第三个活物说:“你来!”我观看,见有一匹黑马;骑在马上的,手中拿着天平。 6 我听见在四个活物中间,仿佛有声音说:“一公升小麦卖一个银币,三公升大麦卖一个银币,油和酒也不可糟蹋。”
7 羊羔揭开了第四个印的时候,我听见第四个活物的声音说:“你来!” 8 我观看,见有一匹灰马;骑在马上的,名字叫作“死”。阴间也跟随着他。他们得了权柄可以管辖地上的四分之一,又要用刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫和地上的野兽去杀人。
9 羊羔揭开了第五个印的时候,我看见祭坛底下,有为了 神的道,并且为了自己所作的见证而被杀的人的灵魂。 10 他们大声喊叫,说:“圣洁真实的主啊!你不审判住在地上的人,给我们伸流血的冤,要到几时呢?” 11 于是有白袍赐给他们各人,又有话吩咐他们要安息一会儿,等到那些与他们同作仆人和弟兄,像他们一样将要被杀的人,凑满了数目的时候。
12 羊羔揭开了第六个印的时候,我观看,大地震就发生了。太阳变黑,像粗糙的黑毛布;整个月亮变红,像血一样; 13 天上的星辰坠落在地上,像无花果树被大风摇动,落下还没有成熟的果子。 14 天隐退了,像书被卷起来一样;山岭和海岛都从原处移去了。 15 地上的君王、大臣、军长、财主、勇士和所有作奴隶的、自由的,都藏在山洞和岩穴里。 16 他们向山岭和岩石说:“倒在我们身上吧!把我们藏起来,躲避坐在宝座上那位的面,和羊羔的震怒! 17 因为他们震怒的大日子来到了,谁能站立得住呢?”

The Seals
6 I watched as the Lamb(A) opened the first of the seven seals.(B) Then I heard one of the four living creatures(C) say in a voice like thunder,(D) “Come!” 2 I looked, and there before me was a white horse!(E) Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown,(F) and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.(G)
3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature(H) say, “Come!” 4 Then another horse came out, a fiery red one.(I) Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth(J) and to make people kill each other. To him was given a large sword.
5 When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature(K) say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a black horse!(L) Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. 6 Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures,(M) saying, “Two pounds[a] of wheat for a day’s wages,[b] and six pounds[c] of barley for a day’s wages,[d](N) and do not damage(O) the oil and the wine!”
7 When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature(P) say, “Come!” 8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse!(Q) Its rider was named Death, and Hades(R) was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.(S)
9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under(T) the altar(U) the souls of those who had been slain(V) because of the word of God(W) and the testimony they had maintained. 10 They called out in a loud voice, “How long,(X) Sovereign Lord,(Y) holy and true,(Z) until you judge the inhabitants of the earth(AA) and avenge our blood?”(AB) 11 Then each of them was given a white robe,(AC) and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters,[e] were killed just as they had been.(AD)
12 I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake.(AE) The sun turned black(AF) like sackcloth(AG) made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, 13 and the stars in the sky fell to earth,(AH) as figs drop from a fig tree(AI) when shaken by a strong wind. 14 The heavens receded like a scroll being rolled up,(AJ) and every mountain and island was removed from its place.(AK)
15 Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free,(AL) hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.(AM) 16 They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us(AN) and hide us[f] from the face of him who sits on the throne(AO) and from the wrath of the Lamb! 17 For the great day(AP) of their[g] wrath has come, and who can withstand it?”(AQ)

Revelation 6
New King James Version
First Seal: The Conqueror
6 Now (A)I saw when the Lamb opened one of the [a]seals; and I heard (B)one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, “Come and see.” 2 And I looked, and behold, (C)a white horse. (D)He who sat on it had a bow; (E)and a crown was given to him, and he went out (F)conquering and to conquer.
Second Seal: Conflict on Earth
3 When He opened the second seal, (G)I heard the second living creature saying, “Come [b]and see.” 4 (H)Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to (I)take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.
Third Seal: Scarcity on Earth
5 When He opened the third seal, (J)I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, (K)a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of (L)scales[c] in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A [d]quart of wheat for a [e]denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and (M)do not harm the oil and the wine.”
Fourth Seal: Widespread Death on Earth
7 When He opened the fourth seal, (N)I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see.” 8 (O)So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And [f]power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, (P)to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, (Q)and by the beasts of the earth.
Fifth Seal: The Cry of the Martyrs
9 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under (R)the altar (S)the souls of those who had been slain (T)for the word of God and for (U)the testimony which they held. 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, (V)“How long, O Lord, (W)holy and true, (X)until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 11 Then a (Y)white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them (Z)that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed.
Sixth Seal: Cosmic Disturbances
12 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, (AA)and [g]behold, there was a great earthquake; and (AB)the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the [h]moon became like blood. 13 (AC)And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. 14 (AD)Then the sky [i]receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and (AE)every mountain and island was moved out of its place. 15 And the (AF)kings of the earth, the great men, [j]the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, (AG)hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, 16 (AH)and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who (AI)sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! 17 For the great day of His wrath has come, (AJ)and who is able to stand?”
