Revelation 6:9-11

9When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw 1underneath the 2altar the 3souls of those who had been killed 4because of the word of God, and because of the 5testimony which they had maintained; 10and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, “6How long, O 7 8Lord, 9holy and true, 10will You refrain from 11judging and avenging our blood on 12those who live on the earth?” 11And a 13white robe was given to each of them; and they were told that they were to 14rest for a little while longer, 15until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers and sisters who were to be killed even as they had been, was 16completed also.
