Revelation 6:3-6
New American Standard Bible
The Second Seal: War
3 When He broke the second seal, I heard the (A)second living creature saying, “Come[a]!” 4 And another, (B)a red horse, went out; and to him who sat on it, it was granted to (C)take peace from the earth, and that people would kill one another; and a large sword was given to him.
The Third Seal: Famine
5 When He broke the third seal, I heard the (D)third living creature saying, “Come[b]!” I looked, and behold, a (E)black horse, and the one who sat on it had a (F)pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard something like a voice in the center of the (G)four living creatures saying, “A [c]quart of wheat for a [d]denarius, and three [e]quarts of barley for a [f]denarius; and (H)do not damage the oil and the wine.”
