일곱 봉인

나는 어린 양이 일곱 봉인 가운데 하나를 떼시는 것을 보았습니다. 그때 내가 들으니 네 생물 가운데 하나가 천둥 소리와 같은 음성으로 “오너라!” 하고 말했습니다.

내가 보는 순간 내 앞에는 흰 말 한 마리가 있었고 그 위에 탄 사람은 활을 가졌으며 면류관을 받고 나가서 이기고 또 이기려고 했습니다.

어린 양이 둘째 봉인을 떼실 때에 나는 둘째 생물이 “오너라!” 하고 말하는 소리를 들었습니다.

그러자 다른 말이 나오는데 그것은 붉은 말이었습니다. 그 위에 탄 사람은 땅에서 평화를 없애고 사람들끼리 서로 죽이게 하는 권한을 받았으며 또 큰 칼 하나를 받았습니다.

어린 양이 셋째 봉인을 떼실 때에 나는 셋째 생물이 “오너라!” 하고 말하는 소리를 들었습니다. 그래서 내가 보니 검은 말 한 마리가 있고 그 위에 탄 사람은 손에 저울을 들고 있었습니다.

그리고 나는 네 생물 사이에서 나는 듯한 이런 음성을 들었습니다. “[a]하루 품삯을 가지고 밀 [b]1리터나 보리 3리터밖에 살 수 없는 흉년이다. 그러나 감람기름과 포도주는 해치지 말아라.”

어린 양이 넷째 봉인을 떼실 때에 나는 넷째 생물이 “오너라!” 하고 말하는 소리를 들었습니다.

그래서 내가 보니 푸르스름한 말이 있는데 그 위에 탄 사람의 이름은 죽음이었으며 [c]지옥이 그 뒤를 따르고 있었습니다. 그들은 전쟁과 기근과 질병과 짐승들을 가지고 세상 사람 4분의 을 죽일 권한을 받았습니다.

어린 양이 다섯째 봉인을 떼실 때에 나는 하나님의 말씀을 증거하다가 죽음을 당한 사람들의 영혼이 제단 아래 있는 것을 보았습니다.

10 그들은 큰 소리로 “거룩하고 참되신 주님, 언제나 땅에 사는 사람들을 심판하여 우리를 죽인 원수를 갚아 주시렵니까?” 하고 부르짖었습니다.

11 그러자 그들에게는 저마다 흰 예복이 한 벌씩 주어졌습니다. 그리고 그들의 동료 종들과 형제들도 죽음을 당하여 그 수가 차기까지 그들에게 잠시 동안 더 쉬라고 하셨습니다.

12 어린 양이 여섯째 봉인을 떼실 때에 내가 보니 큰 지진이 일어나며 해가 검은 천처럼 새까맣게 되고 달은 온통 핏빛으로 변했습니다.

13 그리고 하늘의 별들은 마치 무화과나무가 태풍에 흔들려 설익은 무화과가 떨어지듯 땅에 떨어졌습니다.

14 하늘은 종잇장이 말리듯이 사라져 버리고 산과 섬도 모두 제자리에서 옮겨졌습니다.

15 그러자 땅의 왕들과 고관들과 장군들과 부자들과 강자들과 모든 종들과 자유인이 동굴과 산 바위 틈에 숨어서

16 산과 바위를 향하여 “우리 위에 무너져서 보좌에 앉으신 분의 얼굴과 어린 양의 노여우심에서 우리를 숨겨 다오.

17 그분들이 노여워하시는 날이 드디어 왔으니 누가 견디어 내겠느냐?” 하고 부르짖었습니다.

羔羊揭开前六印

然后,我看见羔羊揭开七印中的第一印,那时我听见四个活物中的一个用如雷的声音说:“来!” 我便观看,见有一匹白马,马上的骑士拿着弓,他接受了赏赐给他的冠冕后,便四处征战,战无不胜。

羔羊揭开第二印时,我听见第二个活物说:“来!” 这次出现了一匹红马,马上的骑士获得权柄和一把大刀,要夺取地上的和平,使人类互相厮杀。

揭开第三印的时候,我听见第三个活物说:“来!”我便看见一匹黑马,马上的骑士手里拿着天平。 我又听见四个活物中好像有声音说:“一升小麦值一个银币[a],三升大麦也同价,油和酒都不要糟蹋。”

羔羊揭开第四印的时候,我听到第四个活物说:“来!” 这次我看到一匹浅灰色的马,马上骑士的名字叫死亡,阴府紧跟在他后面。他们得到权力可以用刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫和野兽消灭全人类的四分之一。

羔羊揭开第五印的时候,我看到一个祭坛,祭坛下有许多灵魂,都是为传扬上帝的道、为祂做见证而被杀的。 10 他们大声喊着说:“圣洁真实的主宰啊,还要等多久呢?为什么你还不审判地上那些屠杀我们的人,为我们申冤呢?” 11 这时有白袍赐给他们,有声音告诉他们要再稍候片刻,直到和他们同做奴仆的弟兄被杀害的数目满了为止。

12 羔羊揭开第六印的时候,我看见大地震发生了,太阳变得像黑毛布一样黑,整个月亮变成血红色, 13 天上的星辰都坠落,好像未成熟的无花果被狂风吹落一般。 14 天空也像书卷被卷起来,所有的山岭和海岛都被挪离原位。 15 地上的君王、显贵、将领、富豪、有势力的、一切奴隶和自由人都躲藏在山洞里和岩穴间。 16 他们哀求群山和岩石,说:“倒下来遮盖我们,将我们藏起来吧!我们不敢面对宝座上的那位和羔羊的烈怒啊! 17 因为祂们发烈怒的大日子到了,谁能站得住呢?”

The Seals

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!” 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)

When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature(H) say, “Come!” 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.

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. 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!”

When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature(P) say, “Come!” 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)

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)

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.

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 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.

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.

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:

10 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?

11 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.

12 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;

13 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.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
