Los sellos
6 Entonces vi que el Cordero abrió uno de los sellos, y oí a uno de los cuatro seres vivientes decir con una voz como de trueno: «¡Ven!»
2 Miré, y vi un caballo blanco. El que lo montaba tenía un arco y le fue dada una corona, y salió venciendo y para vencer.
3 Cuando abrió el segundo sello, oí al segundo ser viviente, que decía: «¡Ven!»
4 Salió otro caballo, de color rojizo. Al que lo montaba le fue dado poder para quitar la paz de la tierra y hacer que se mataran unos a otros. Y se le dio una espada muy grande.
5 Cuando abrió el tercer sello, oí al tercer ser viviente, que decía: «¡Ven!»
Miré, y vi un caballo negro. El que lo montaba tenía una balanza en la mano. 6 Y oí una voz de en medio de los cuatro seres vivientes, que decía: «Dos libras de trigo por un denario y seis libras de cebada por un denario, pero no dañes el aceite ni el vino.»
7 Cuando abrió el cuarto sello, oí la voz del cuarto ser viviente que decía: «¡Ven!»
8 Miré, y vi un caballo amarillo. El que lo montaba tenía por nombre Muerte, y el Hades lo seguía: y les fue dada potestad sobre la cuarta parte de la tierra, para matar con espada, con hambre, con mortandad y con las fieras de la tierra.
9 Cuando abrió el quinto sello, vi debajo del altar las almas de los que habían muerto por causa de la palabra de Dios y del testimonio que tenían. 10 Clamaban a gran voz, diciendo: «¿Hasta cuándo Señor, santo y verdadero, vas a tardar en juzgar y vengar nuestra sangre de los que habitan sobre la tierra?» 11 Entonces se les dieron vestiduras blancas y se les dijo que descansaran todavía un poco de tiempo, hasta que se completara el número de sus consiervos y sus hermanos que también habían de ser muertos como ellos.
12 Miré cuando abrió el sexto sello, y hubo un gran terremoto. El sol se puso negro como tela de luto, la luna entera se volvió toda como sangre 13 y las estrellas del cielo cayeron sobre la tierra, como la higuera deja caer sus higos cuando es sacudida por un fuerte viento. 14 El cielo se replegó como un pergamino que se enrolla, y todo monte y toda isla fueron removidos de sus lugares. 15 Los reyes de la tierra, los grandes, los ricos, los capitanes, los poderosos, todo esclavo 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: «Caed sobre nosotros y escondednos del rostro de aquel que está sentado sobre el trono, y de la ira del Cordero, 17 porque el gran día de su ira ha llegado y ¿quién podrá sostenerse en pie?»

Los primeros cuatro sellos
6 En el momento en que el Cordero[a] rompía el primero de los siete sellos,[b] oí que uno de los cuatro seres vivientes decía con voz de trueno: «¡Acércate!»
2 Miré entonces, y vi salir un caballo blanco. El que lo montaba llevaba en la mano flechas y un arco, y le dieron una corona. Había vencido a sus enemigos, y salía dispuesto a seguir venciendo.
3 Cuando el Cordero rompió el segundo sello, oí que decía el segundo de los seres vivientes: «¡Acércate!»
4 Salió entonces un caballo rojizo. Y Dios le dio permiso al jinete de acabar con la paz del mundo, y de hacer que unos a otros se mataran. Y le dieron una gran espada.
5 Cuando el Cordero rompió el tercer sello, oí que decía el tercero de los seres vivientes: «¡Acércate!»
Luego vi un caballo negro. El que lo montaba llevaba una balanza en la mano. 6 Y de en medio de los cuatro seres vivientes oí una voz que decía: «El salario de todo un día de trabajo sólo alcanzará para comprar un kilo de trigo o tres kilos de cebada. ¡Pero no subas el precio del aceite ni del vino!»
7 Cuando el Cordero rompió el cuarto sello, oí que decía el cuarto de los seres vivientes: «¡Acércate!»
8 Después vi un caballo pálido y amarillento. El que lo montaba se llamaba Muerte, y lo seguía el representante del reino de la muerte. Y los dos recibieron poder para matar a la cuarta parte de los habitantes de este mundo, con guerras, hambres, enfermedades y ataques de animales salvajes.
El quinto sello
9 Cuando el Cordero rompió el quinto sello, vi debajo del altar a las almas de los que habían sido asesinados por anunciar el mensaje de Dios. 10 Decían con fuerte voz: «Dios todopoderoso, tú eres santo y siempre dices la verdad. ¿Cuándo te vengarás de los que nos mataron? ¿Cuándo los castigarás?»
11 Entonces Dios les dio ropas blancas, y les dijo que debían esperar un poco más, porque aún no habían muerto todos los cristianos que debían morir como ellos.
El sexto sello
12 Cuando el Cordero rompió el sexto sello, miré, y hubo un gran terremoto. El sol se oscureció, y la luna se puso roja como la sangre. 13 Las estrellas cayeron del cielo a la tierra, como cae la fruta del árbol cuando un fuerte viento lo sacude. 14 Además, el cielo fue desapareciendo, como cuando se enrolla una hoja de pergamino, y todas las montañas y las islas fueron llevadas a otro lugar.
15 Entonces todos los reyes de la tierra, y toda la gente importante, intentaron esconderse en las cuevas y entre las rocas de las montañas. Lo mismo hicieron los comandantes de los ejércitos, los ricos, los poderosos, los esclavos y los que eran libres. 16 Y todos ellos les decían a las montañas y a las rocas:
«¡Caigan sobre nosotros, para que no nos vea el que está sentado en el trono! ¡Que no nos castigue el Cordero! 17 Ha llegado el día en que Dios y el Cordero nos castigarán, y nadie podrá resistir el castigo.»

Revelation 6
King James Version
Revelation 6
King James Version
6 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.
2 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.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 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.
5 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.
6 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.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 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.
9 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?

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)

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?”
