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.”
