And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a scroll written inside and on the back, having been sealed with seven seals.

And they sing a new song, saying: You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, Come and see.

When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come and see.

And when He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, Come and see. So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand.

And when He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, Come and see.

And when He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the Word of God and because of the testimony which they held.

And I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.

It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes in silence; then I heard a voice saying:

Rest in Jehovah, and wait patiently for Him; do not fret over him who prospers in his way, because of him who works out wicked devices.

i1 [To the chief Musician. Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.] i0 par Only before God is my soul silent; from Him comes my salvation.

But Jehovah is in His holy temple; let all the earth be silent before Him.

All flesh, be silent before Jehovah. For He is raised up out of His holy habitation.
