1
Romans Go Forth to Conquer |
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.
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. |
|
2
War |
And when he had opened the second seal, I heard
the second beast say, Come and see.
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. |
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars:
see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must
come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom |
3
Famine |
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. 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. |
Famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in
divers places. |
4
Death |
And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard
the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 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. |
Death in the wake of the above.. war, pestilence, and
famine |
5
Martyrdom |
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: 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? 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. |
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted,
and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations
for my name's sake.

6
Signs in the Sun, Moon, Starts |
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;
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. |
Immediately after the tribulation of those days
shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give
her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the
powers of the heavens shall be shaken: |
