## 📜 Scripture Text (NET)
(The NET Bible: New English Translation. Biblical Studies Press, 2005)
#### The Seven Seals
[[#Verse 01.]] I looked on when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a thunderous voice, “Come!”Â
[[#Verse 02.]] So I looked, and here came a white horse! The one who rode it had a bow, and he was given a crown, and as a conqueror he rode out to conquer.
[[#Verse 03.]] Then when the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come!”Â
[[#Verse 04.]] And another horse, fiery red, came out, and the one who rode it was granted permission to take peace from the earth, so that people would butcher
one another, and he was given a huge sword.
[[#Verse 05.]] Then when the Lamb opened the third seal I heard the third living creature saying, “Come!” So I looked, and here came a black horse! The one who rode it had a balance scale in his hand.Â
[[#Verse 06.]] Then I heard something like a voice from among the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat will cost a day’s pay and three quarts of barley will cost a day’s pay. But do not damage the olive oil and the wine!”
[[#Verse 07.]] Then when the Lamb opened the fourth seal I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come!”Â
[[#Verse 08.]] So I looked and here came a pale green horse! The name of the one who rode it was Death, and Hades followed right behind. They were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill its population with the sword, famine, and disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.
[[#Verse 09.]] Now when the Lamb opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been violently killed because of the word of God and because of the testimony they had given.Â
[[#Verse 10.]] They cried out with a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Master, holy and true, before you judge those who live on the earth and avenge our blood?”Â
[[#Verse 11.]] Each of them was given a long white robe and they were told to rest for a little longer, until the full number was reached of both their fellow servants and their brothers who were going to be killed just as they had been.
[[#Verse 12.]] Then I looked when the Lamb opened the sixth seal, and a huge earthquake took place; the sun became as black as sackcloth made of hair, and the full moon became blood red;Â
[[#Verse 13.]] and the stars in the sky fell to the earth like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when shaken by a fierce wind.Â
[[#Verse 14.]] The sky was split apart like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved from its place.Â
[[#Verse 15.]] Then the kings of the earth, the very important people, the generals, the rich, the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains.Â
[[#Verse 16.]] They said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of the one who is seated on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb,Â
[[#Verse 17.]] because the great day of their wrath has come, and who is able to withstand it?”
