9 And when He opened the fifth seal, I saw (A)underneath the (B)altar the (C)souls of those who had been slain (D)because of the word of God, and because of the (E)witness which they had maintained; 10 and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, “(F)How long, O (G)Master, (H)holy and true? [a]Will You not (I)judge and avenge our blood on (J)those who dwell on the earth?” 11 And (K)a white robe was given to each of them; and it was told to them that they should (L)rest for a little while longer, (M)until the number of their fellow slaves and their brothers who were to be killed even as they had been, would be (N)completed also.

The Vision of the Fifth Seal Opened
9 When the lamb[a] opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slaughtered because of the word of God and the testimony they had given. 10 They cried out in a loud voice,
“Holy and true Sovereign,
how long will it be before you judge
and take revenge on those living on the earth
who shed our blood?”
