Revelation 6:13-17
13and 1the stars of the sky fell to the earth, 2as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind.
143The sky was split apart like a scroll when it is rolled up, and 4every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15Then 5the kings of the earth and the great men and the 6commanders and the rich and the strong and every slave and free man hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains;
16and they 7said to the mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the 8presence of Him 9who sits on the throne, and from the 10wrath of the Lamb;
17for 11the great day of their wrath has come, and 12who is able to stand?”
