Los primeros cuatro sellos
6 Vi cuando el Cordero(A) abrió uno de los siete sellos(B), y oí a uno de los cuatro seres vivientes(C) que decía, como con voz de trueno(D): Ven[a]. 2 Miré, y he aquí, un caballo blanco(E); y el que estaba montado en él tenía un arco; se le dio una corona(F), y salió conquistando y para conquistar(G).
3 Cuando abrió el segundo sello, oí al segundo ser viviente(H) que decía: Ven. 4 Entonces salió otro caballo, rojo(I); y al que estaba montado en él se le concedió quitar la paz de la tierra(J) y que los hombres se mataran unos a otros; y se le dio una gran espada.
5 Cuando abrió el tercer sello, oí al tercer ser viviente(K) que decía: Ven. Y miré, y he aquí, un caballo negro(L); y el que estaba montado en él tenía una balanza en la mano(M). 6 Y oí como una voz en medio de los cuatro seres vivientes(N) que decía: Un litro[b] de trigo por un denario[c], y tres litros[d] de cebada por un denario[e], y no dañes el aceite y el vino(O).
7 Cuando abrió el cuarto sello, oí la voz del cuarto ser viviente(P) que decía: Ven. 8 Y miré, y he aquí, un caballo amarillento[f](Q); y el que estaba montado en él se llamaba Muerte(R); y el Hades[g](S) lo seguía. Y se les dio autoridad sobre la cuarta parte de la tierra(T), para matar con espada, con hambre, con pestilencia[h] y con las fieras de la tierra.
El quinto sello
9 Cuando el Cordero abrió el quinto sello, vi debajo(U) del altar(V) las almas(W) de los que habían sido muertos a causa de la palabra de Dios(X) y del testimonio que habían mantenido(Y); 10 y clamaban a gran voz, diciendo(Z): ¿Hasta cuándo, oh Señor[i](AA) santo(AB) y verdadero, esperarás para juzgar(AC) y vengar[j] nuestra sangre de los que moran en la tierra(AD)? 11 Y se les dio a cada uno una vestidura blanca(AE); y se les dijo que descansaran un poco más de tiempo(AF), hasta que se completara(AG) también el número(AH) de sus consiervos y de sus hermanos que habrían de ser muertos como ellos lo habían sido.
El sexto sello
12 Vi cuando el Cordero abrió el sexto sello, y hubo un gran terremoto(AI), y el sol se puso negro(AJ) como cilicio(AK) hecho de cerda, y toda la luna se volvió como sangre, 13 y las estrellas del cielo cayeron a la tierra(AL), como la higuera(AM) deja caer sus higos verdes al ser sacudida por un fuerte viento. 14 Y el cielo desapareció[k] como un pergamino[l] que se enrolla(AN), y todo monte e isla fueron removidos de su lugar(AO). 15 Y los reyes de la tierra(AP), y los grandes, los comandantes[m], los ricos, los poderosos, y todo siervo y todo libre, se escondieron en las cuevas y entre las peñas de los montes; 16 y decían* a los montes y a las peñas(AQ): Caed sobre nosotros y escondednos de la presencia[n] del que está sentado en el trono(AR) y de la ira del Cordero(AS), 17 porque ha llegado el gran día de la ira de ellos(AT), ¿y quién podrá[o] sostenerse[p](AU)?

Opening the first six seals
6 Then I looked on as the Lamb opened one of the seven seals. I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” 2 So I looked, and there was a white horse. Its rider held a bow and was given a crown. And he went forth from victory to victory.
3 When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 Out came another horse, fiery red. Its rider was allowed to take peace from the earth so that people would kill each other. He was given a large sword.
5 When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” So I looked, and there was a black horse. Its rider held a balance for weighing in his hand. 6 I heard what sounded like a voice from among the four living creatures. It said, “A quart of wheat for a denarion,[a] and three quarts of barley for a denarion, but don’t damage the olive oil and the wine.”
7 When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” 8 So I looked, and there was a pale green horse. Its rider’s name was Death, and the Grave was following right behind. They were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill by sword, famine, disease, and the wild animals of the earth.
9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar those who had been slaughtered on account of the word of God and the witness they had given. 10 They cried out with a loud voice, “Holy and true Master, how long will you wait before you pass judgment? How long before you require justice for our blood, which was shed by those who live on earth?” 11 Each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to rest a little longer, until their fellow servants and brothers and sisters—who were about to be killed as they were—were finished.
12 I looked on as he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became black as funeral clothing, and the entire moon turned red as blood. 13 The stars of the sky fell to the earth as a fig tree drops its fruit when shaken by a strong wind. 14 The sky disappeared like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved from its place. 15 Then the kings of the earth, the officials and the generals, the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in caves and in the rocks of the mountains. 16 They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of the one seated on the throne and from the Lamb’s wrath! 17 The great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”

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)
