English Standard Version
Israel Has Not Returned to the Lord
6 “I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities,
and (A)lack of bread in all your places,
(B)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
7 “I also (C)withheld the rain from you
when there were yet three months to the harvest;
(D)I would send rain on one city,
and send no rain on another city;
one field would have rain,
and the field on which it did not rain would wither;
8 so two or three cities (E)would wander to another city
to drink water, and would not be satisfied;
(F)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
9 (G)“I struck you with blight and mildew;
your many gardens and your vineyards,
your fig trees and your olive trees (H)the locust devoured;
(I)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
10 “I sent among you a pestilence (J)after the manner of Egypt;
I killed your young men with the sword,
and (K)carried away your horses,[a]
and (L)I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;
(M)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
11 “I overthrew some of you,
(N)as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
and you were (O)as a brand[b] plucked out of the burning;
(P)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
12 “Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;
because I will do this to you,
prepare to meet your God, O Israel!”
Ezekiel 6:11-12

11 Thus says the Lord God: (A)“Clap your hands (B)and stamp your foot and say, Alas, because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel, (C)for they shall fall by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence. 12 (D)He who is far off shall die of pestilence, and he who is near shall fall by the sword, and he who is left and is preserved shall die of famine. (E)Thus I will spend my fury upon them.

2 And when they ask you, ‘Where shall we go?’ you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord:

and those who are for the sword, to the sword;
those who are for famine, to famine,
and those who are for captivity, to captivity.’

Revelation 6:4-8
English Standard Version
4 And out came another horse, (A)bright red. Its rider was permitted (B)to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.
5 When he opened the third seal, I heard the (C)third living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, (D)a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, (E)“A quart[a] of wheat for a denarius,[b] and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and (F)do not harm the oil and wine!”
7 When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of (G)the fourth living creature say, “Come!” 8 And I looked, and behold, (H)a pale horse! And its rider's name was Death, and Hades followed him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill (I)with sword and with famine and with pestilence and (J)by wild beasts of the earth.
