And I heard a voice in the midst of the four cherubs, saying, A choenix [a quart] of wheat for a denarius [14 cents], and three choenices of barley for a denarius; and injure not the oil and wine. And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the fourth cherub say, Come. And I saw, and behold, a pale horse, and one sat on it, whose name was Death, and Hades followed him, and there was given him power over a fourth part of the earth to kill with the sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the beasts of the earth. And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those killed for the word of God and for the testimony which they had. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, Master, holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those that dwell on the earth? And a white robe was given them, and it was told them to rest yet a little while, till their fellow servants and their brothers and those about to be killed as they also had been should finish [their testimony]. And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and all the moon became as blood, and the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts down its unseasonable figs when shaken with a mighty wind, and heaven departed like a book rolled up, and every mountain and island were moved from their places. And the kings of the earth and the great men and the chiliarchs and the rich and the mighty and every servant and freeman hid themselves in caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of his wrath has come, and who can stand?

And the first sounded; and there was hail and fire mingled with blood, and it was cast on the earth; and a third part of the earth was consumed, and a third part of the trees were consumed, and all the green grass was consumed. And the second angel sounded; and the appearance of a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea; and a third part of the sea became blood, and a third part of the creatures in the sea having life died, and a third part of the ships were destroyed. And the third angel sounded; and there fell from heaven a great star, burning like a lamp, and it fell on a third part of the rivers and on the fountains of waters. And the name of the star was called Bitterness. And a third part of the waters became bitter, and many men died by the waters, because they were bitter. And the fourth angel sounded; and a third part of the sun was smitten, and a third part of the moon, and a third part of the stars, and a third part of them were darkened, and the day did not appear a third part of it, nor the night.

And the sixth angel sounded; and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God, saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, Unbind the four angels bound by the river, the great Euphrates. And the four angels were unbound, who were prepared for the hour, and day, and month, and year, to kill a third part of men. And the number of the armies of the horse was two ten thousands of ten thousands; I heard the number of them. And thus I saw the horses in the vision and those sitting on them, having cuirassess of fire, of hyacinth and of sulphur; and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and from their mouths proceeded fire and smoke and sulphur. By these three plagues a third part of men were killed, by the fire and the smoke and the sulphur which proceeded from their mouths. For the power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails were like serpents, having heads, and with them they did injury. And the rest of men, who were not killed with these plagues, did not change their minds [to turn] from the works of their hands, not to worship demons and idols of gold and silver and brass and stone and wood, which cannot see nor hear nor walk, and did not change their minds [to turn] from their murders, nor from their magic arts, nor from their fornication, nor from their thefts.
