Revelation 6:1-7

1ThenG2532 I watchedG3708 asG3753 theG3588 LambG721 openedG455 oneG1520 ofG1537 theG3588 sevenG2033 sealsG4973, andG2532 I heardG191 oneG1520 ofG1537 theG3588 fourG5064 living creaturesG2226 sayG3004 inG5613 a voiceG5456 like thunderG1027, “ComeG2064!”

2So I lookedG3708 andG2532 sawG2400 a whiteG3022 horseG2462, andG2532 its riderG3588G2521G1909G846 heldG2192 a bowG5115. AndG2532 heG846 was givenG1325 a crownG4735, andG2532 he rode outG1831 to overcomeG3528 andG2532 conquerG3528.

3AndG2532 whenG3753 the Lamb openedG455 theG3588 secondG1208 sealG4973, I heardG191 theG3588 secondG1208 living creatureG2226 sayG3004, “ComeG2064!”

4ThenG2532 anotherG243 horseG2462 went forthG1831. It was bright redG4450, andG2532 its riderG3588G2521G1909G846 was granted permissionG1325 to take awayG2983 peaceG1515 fromG1537 theG3588 earthG1093 andG2532 to make men slayG4969 one anotherG240. AndG2532 heG846 was givenG1325 a greatG3173 swordG3162.

5AndG2532 whenG3753 the Lamb openedG455 theG3588 thirdG5154 sealG4973, I heardG191 theG3588 thirdG5154 living creatureG2226 sayG3004, “ComeG2064!”

ThenG2532 I lookedG3708 andG2532 sawG2400 a blackG3189 horseG2462, andG2532 its riderG3588G2521G1909G846 heldG2192 inG1722 hisG846 handG5495 a pair of scalesG2218. 6AndG2532 I heardG191 what sounded likeG5613 a voiceG5456 from amongG1722G3319 theG3588 fourG5064 living creaturesG2226, sayingG3004, “A quartG5518 of wheatG4621 for a denariusG1220,1 andG2532 threeG5140 quartsG5518 of barleyG2915 for a denariusG1220, andG2532 do not harmG3361G91 theG3588 oilG1637 andG2532 wineG3631.”

7AndG2532 whenG3753 the Lamb openedG455 theG3588 fourthG5067 sealG4973, I heardG191 the voiceG5456 of theG3588 fourthG5067 living creatureG2226 sayG3004, “ComeG2064!”
