When the Lamb broke the second seal, I heard a second living being say, ‘Come!’ Then another horse appeared, a red one. Its rider was give a mighty sword and the authority to take peace from the earth. And there was war and slaughter everywhere.
When the Lamb broke the third seal, I heard the third living being say,’Come!’ I looked up and saw a black horse and its rider was hold a pair of scales in his hand. An I heard a voice from month the four living beings say,’A loaf of wheat and bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day’s pay. And don’t waste the olive oil and wine.’
When the Lamb broke the fourth seal, I heard the fourth living being say, ‘Come!’ I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. It s rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave. These two were given authority over one-fourth of the earth, to kill with the sword, famine and disease and wild animals.” (Revelation 6: vv. 1-8, NLT)
