Revelation 6:8-11
English Standard Version
8 And I looked, and behold, (A)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 (B)with sword and with famine and with pestilence and (C)by wild beasts of the earth.
9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under (D)the altar (E)the souls of those who had been slain (F)for the word of God and for (G)the witness they had borne. 10 They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, (H)holy and true, (I)how long (J)before you will judge and (K)avenge our blood on (L)those who dwell on the earth?” 11 Then they were each given (M)a white robe and (N)told to rest a little longer, (O)until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers[a] (P)should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.
