He had seven horns and seven eyes (which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth). And he went, and now he has taken the book out of the right hand of Him who was seated on the throne. When he took the book, the four Living Creatures and the four and twenty Elders fell down before the Lamb.

Then I looked and heard a voice of many angels encircling the throne and a voice of the Living Creatures and of the Elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, singing aloud, "Worthy is the Lamb who has been slain, To receive power and riches and wisdom And might and honor and glory and blessing." And I heard every created thing that is in heaven, or on earth, or beneath the earth, or on the sea, and all things that are in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, And to the Lamb, Be the blessing and the honor, And the glory and the power, Forever and ever!"

"A quart of wheat for a shilling, and three quarts of barley for a shilling; but do not harm the oil and the wine." And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth Living Creature calling, "Come!"

Seals » The seven seals
And I saw, when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four Living Creatures say, with a voice like thunder, "Come!" And I saw, and lo, a white horse, and he who sat on him had a bow; and there was given him a crown; and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second Living Creature say, "Come!" read more.
And another horse come forth, a red horse. To him who sat on it, it was allowed to take peace from the earth, and to cause men to kill one another; and a great sword was given to him. And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third Living Creature say, "Come!" And I saw, and lo, a black horse! He who sat on him had a balance in his hand. And I heard the semblance of a voice in the midst of the four Living Creatures, saying. "A quart of wheat for a shilling, and three quarts of barley for a shilling; but do not harm the oil and the wine." And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth Living Creature calling, "Come!" So I liked, and lo, a pale horse; and he who sat on him was named Death; and Hades was following after him. To them was given authority over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword, and with famine, and with death, and with the wild beasts of the earth. And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they bore. And with a loud voice they cried, saying, "O Master, holy and true, How long dost thou not judge And avenge our blood On those who dwell on the earth?" And there was given to each one of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for yet a little time, until the number should be completed by their fellow slaves and their brethren who were about to be put to death as they had been. And I looked when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black, like sackcloth, and the full moon became like blood; and the stars of the sky fell to earth, as a fig tree shaken by a gale drops its unripe figs. And the sky parted asunder like a rolled-up scroll; and every mountain and island was moved out of its place; and the kings of the earth, and the princes, and the generals, the rich and the mighty, both slaves and freemen, every one of them hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains. And they began to say to the mountains and to the rocks. "Fall upon us and hide us From the face of him who is seated upon the throne, And from the wrath of the Lamb; For the Great Day of their wrath has come, And who is able to stand?"

And when he opened the seventh seal, there followed a silence in heaven, about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given them. And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer, and a great quantity of incense was given him to mingle with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar, which was before the throne. read more.
And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose up from the hand of the angel into the presence of God. Then the angel took the censer, and he filled it with fire from the altar, and poured it upon the earth; and there followed thunders and voices and lightnings and an earthquake. And the seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to blow their trumpets. And the first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and it fell upon the earth; and the third part of the earth was burned up, and the third part of the trees, and all the green grass. And the second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was hurled into the sea; and a third part of the sea became blood; and a third part of the living creatures in the sea died, and the third part of the ships were destroyed. And the third angel blew his trumpet, and there fell from heaven a great star, blazing like a torch. It fell upon a third of the rivers and upon the springs. (The name of the star is called Wormwood.) A third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. And the fourth angel blew his trumpet, and the third part of the sun was blasted, and a third part of the moon, and a third part of the stars; so that the third part of them should be darkened, and for a third part of the day there was no light, and at night it was the same. And I looked and I heard a solitary eagle flying in mid-heaven, and crying with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe for all who live on the earth, Because of the rest of the trumpet-blasts That the three angels are about to blow!"

Then the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven upon the earth; and to him was given the key to the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit, and out of the pit there went up a smoke like the smoke of a great furnace. And the sun and the air grew dark, because of the smoke out of the pit. And out of the smoke came locusts upon the earth; they were given power like that of scorpions on the earth. read more.
They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any plant, nor any tree, but only those who have not the seal of God on their foreheads. Yet they were not permitted to kill them, but only to torture them for five months. Their torture was like the torture of a scorpion, when it stings a man. In those days men will seek death, and will not find it; they will long to die, but death ever flees from them. The appearance of the locusts was like horses equipped for battle. On their heads there was something like crowns of gold, and their faces were like men's faces, and they had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like lion's teeth, and they had breastplates something like breastplates of iron; and the noise of their wings was like the noise of chariots, of many horses rushing into battle. And they have tails like scorpions, and stings, and their power to torture men five months was in their tails. They have a king over them, the angel of the bottomless pit. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon; in Greek he is called Apollyon. "The first woe has passed; and still there are two woes to follow." Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet; and I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God, one saying to the sixth angel that had the trumpet, "Loose the four angels which are bound at the great river Euphrates." Then the four angels that were held in readiness for that hour and day and month and year, were let loose, to destroy a third of mankind. The number of the hosts of the horsemen was twice ten thousand times ten thousand. I heard their number; and thus I saw the horses in the vision and their riders. They had breastplates of fire, "red as fire, dark blue as jacinth, and yellow as sulphur." The heads of the horses were like lions' heads, and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. By these three plagues a third of mankind were killed; by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone which issued from their mouths. For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents with heads, and with them they work woe. And the rest of mankind who were not killed with these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands. They would not give up the worship of demons and of idols made of gold and silver, and brass, and stone, and wood, which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk. And they did not repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their immorality, nor of their thefts.

And I saw another mighty angel coming down out of heaven, clad with a cloud; and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire. In his hand he had a little book, open; and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the land. With a great voice he shouted as a lion roars; and when he shouted, the seven thunders uttered their voices. read more.
When the seven thunders uttered their voices, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from the sky, saying, "Seal up the words which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not." And the angel whom I had seen standing upon the sea and upon the land lifted up his right hand to heaven, and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created the heaven and all that is in it, and the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it, "Delay there shall be no more, but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to blow his trumpet, then shall there be finished the mystery of God, according to the Good News which he told unto his slaves, the prophets."

And the seventh angel blew his trumpet; and there followed great voices in heaven, and they said, "THE KINGDOMS OF THIS WORLD ARE BECOME THE KINGDOM OF OUR LORD AND OF HIS CHRIST, AND HE WILL REIGN FOREVER AND EVER." Then the four and twenty Elders who are seated before God on their thrones, fell upon their faces and worshiped God, saying. "We give thee thanks, O Lord God, The Almighty, who art and who wast; For thou hast taken thy great power, And begun to reign. read more.
The nations raged, and thy wrath came, And the time for the dead to be judged; The time for rewarding thy slaves, the prophets And the saints, and those who reverence thy name, Both small and great; And the time to destroy those who are destroying the earth." Then the temple of God in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen inside his sanctuary; and there followed lightnings and voices and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail.
