Revelation 6:11-13
New Testament for Everyone
11 Each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to rest for a little while yet, until the full number of those to be killed, as they had been, was reached—including both their fellow-servants and their kinsfolk.
12 As I looked, he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake, the sun turned black like sackcloth, the whole moon became like blood, 13 and the stars were falling from heaven onto the earth as when a fig tree, shaken by a strong wind, drops its late fruit.
