Literal translation of the Greek:
Revelation 6
1 and I saw which one of the seals the Lamb opened and I heard one of the four
beings say with a loud voice, come and see
2 and I looked and saw a white horse and he who sat upon it holding a bow and
he was given a crown and he went to conquer so as to defeat
3 and when He opened up the second seal I heard the second being say, come
and see
4 and another came forth, a red horse and one sat upon it who was given to take
away the peace from the earth so that they would kill each other and a great
sword was given to him
5 and when the third seal was opened I heard the third being say, come and see
and I looked and saw a black horse and one sat upon it holding a yoke(or
balancing scales) in his hand
6 and I heard a voice in the midst of the four beings say, a measure(choinix=a
little less than a litre) of wheat for a denarius and three measures of barley for a
denarius and do not harm the (olive-)oil and wine
7 and when He opened the fourth seal I heard the voice of the fourth being say,
come and see
8 and I looked and saw a (yellowish)pale horse and the one sitting upon it his
name is death and hades(she'ol, hell) and it follows with him and gives them the
ability(power) to kill over a fourth of the earth by the sword and by hunger and
by death and through the wild animals of the earth
9 and when He opened the fifth seal I saw under the altar the souls of those
killed for the witness of the Word of God which they held(or cling to)
10 and they cried with a great voice(or noise) saying, until when Holy and
truthful Lord will you not punish and avenge our blood of those who dwell
on earth
11 and they were each given white robes and they rejoiced so as to rest a little
while longer and until they will be completed(full in number or rendered
perfect) and their fellow servants and their brothers are about to be killed as
they were
12 and I looked when He opened the sixth seal and I saw a great earthquake
happen and the sun turn black as sackcloth hair and the moon become as blood
13 and the stars of the heaven fell onto the earth, the fig tree threw its unripe
figs under a great shaking wind
14 and heaven separated(tore up, departed) like how a scroll rolls up and all
mountains and islands were moved(away) from their places
15 and the kings of the earth and the great men and the rich and the chiefs of
thousands and the powerful and all bondservants and all free men hiding
themselves in the caves(caverns) and into the rocks of the mountains
16 and they said to the mountains and the rocks, fall on us and hide us from the
face of He Who sits on the Throne and from the wrath of the Lamb
17 because the great Day of His wrath has come and who is able to stand
