Revelation 6:12-17
Legacy Standard Bible
12 Then I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and there was a great (A)earthquake; and the (B)sun became black as (C)sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood; 13 and (D)the stars of the sky fell to the earth, (E)as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind. 14 (F)And the sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up, and (G)every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15 Then (H)the kings of the earth and the great men and the [a]commanders and the rich and the strong and every slave and free man (I)hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains; 16 and they *(J)said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the [b]presence of Him (K)who sits on the throne, and from the [c](L)wrath of the Lamb, 17 for (M)the great (N)day of their [d]wrath has come, and (O)who is able to stand?”

International Standard Version
The Vision of the Sixth Seal Opened
12 Then I saw the lamb[a] open the sixth seal. There was a powerful earthquake. The sun turned as black as sackcloth made of hair, and the full moon turned as red as blood.[b] 13 The stars in the sky fell to the earth like a fig tree drops its fruit when it is shaken by a strong wind. 14 The sky vanished like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved from its place. 15 Then the kings of the earth, the important people, the generals, the rich, the powerful, and all the slaves and free people concealed themselves in caves and among the rocks in the mountains. 16 They told the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of the one who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the lamb. 17 For the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to endure it?”
